Robin Parry has been blogging about Noah’s Flood; particularly, he has been arguing against a global flood and for why theologically it doesn’t really matter that the Genesis Flood was not global in nature:
- Did Noah’s Flood Happen? An Historical Overview
- Did Noah’s Flood Happen? The Evidence says ‘No’
- Did Noah’s Flood Happen? Theological Reflections, pt 1
- Did Noah’s Flood Happen? Theological Reflections, part 2 (Genesis in ancient context)
For many of my readers, this is an issue long settled. They may wonder why someone would take the time to refute the notion of a global flood. Others of my readers may be rather nervous about the very idea of doubting the non-global nature of the Flood. I think both groups would benefit from Robin’s reasoned tone and well-thought arguments. It doesn’t do for either “side” to dismiss the other in a condescending way.
