… Noah's Ark rested on Mount Ararat, encased in ice, for almost 4,500 years, abandoned and undisturbed. But in the past fifty years, the true Ark has become seven of the most popular Christian tourist sites in the entire land of Turkey, in seven different locations upon Mount Ararat. Remains of the Ark have been visited by literally dozens of expeditions of American evangelicals, including the U.S. moon astronaut, James Irwin. Many of these Christian expeditions have returned from their climb with bits of rotted gopher wood, shards of ancient clay chamberpots, fossilised excrement by the bag-full, and stories of having spotted the actual cages in which Noah kept the animals.
Despite that mountain of evidence and pile of eyewitness testimony, a June 2005 nationwide poll indicated that only 68% of American adults still believe that the story of the Great Flood, as told in the Bible, is both literally true and factually accurate – which is like the other 32% of the United States of America believing that the holy Ghost is either a liar, or an idiot. The Lord therefore issued a gentle warning to those Americans who were saying that the Bible might be mistaken. To the party-city of New Orleans, Yahveh sent "Hurricane Katrina," with a local flood that killed 1,500 people. And to the mostly Buddhist and Hindu population of south Asia, He sent a tsunami, killing 285,000.
Another reason that the Lord blasted New Orleans with Katrina was to disrupt the 34th Annual gay, lesbian, transgender, transsexual, transvestite, and misc. transgressor "Southern Decadence" festival. New Orleans' infamous "Gay Mardi Gras" was to be held from August 31 to September 5, 2005. More than one hundred thousand happy-go-lucky homosexual men and women had planned to converge on the city to do together whatever it is that homosexuals like to do when they get together in New Orleans (which does not usually include worshiping Christ).
(If you are one of those who think that Hurricane Katrina's August 29 arrival was a coincidence, you don't know God: for more information, visit www.repentamerica.com/index.htm, [8/31/05])
But Hurricane Katrina was just a warmup for the really really big Flood, which has yet to arrive, because God, predictably, changed His mind again. Two thousand years after Noah, Yahveh confided in the prophet Jeremiah, saying:
Thus saith the LORD: "Behold, waters shall rise up out of the north, and there shall be another Great Flood after all, and it shall inundate the Earth and all that is therein, the cities and who dwell therein. Then shall humans weep. All the inhabitants of the Earth shall howl!" (Jeremiah 47:2)
The second Great Flood, prophesied by Jeremiah, will make Noah's storm look like a tempest in a teapot. And when that second Great Flood hits, a thousand other Biblical prophecies will come true at the same time, on the same exact day. Take, for example, this one –
There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor any sodomite among the sons of Israel. (Deut. 23:17)
Non-religious Jews for the past 3,500 years have read that Bible prophecy and just laughed their asses off, saying, "Whoa! Yahveh sure missed the broadside of the barn with that one! We've got more whores among the daughters of Israel than among the daughters of Babylon! more sodomites among the sons of Israel than among sons of the Vatican! Ha ha ha! YHWH, what a dope, oy vey!"
But God is patient. In the words of Martin Luther, the father of the Protestant Christianity: "With the Lord, one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. So just wait until after the second Great Flood, when everyone on Earth has drowned! – and then try counting the whores and sodomites among the daughters and sons of Israel! How many harlots and buggers will be laughing then?" That's also the way your heavenly Father thinks of it.
But Jeremiah's prophecy of a second Great Flood is also why so many Bible-believing Christians, to this day, keep an inflatable rubber raft under their beds – just in case the Lord doesn't change His mind, for once.

Some people ask: why should I believe the Bible if it doesn't seem true?
