Naeryn They actually found traces of a boat up in a mountain range somewhere... I don't remember, but it's nowhere near any water sources (lakes, rivers, ocean, inland sea...). I thought THAT was pretty crazy. They're always finding "arks." rolleyes But who knows-maybe one is real? wink

Hedge123 fntsywrter86 Hedge123 Just to point out, ^^^^^^ Is EXTREMELY similar to the story in the Bible, where Jesus feeds all the people off of fish. Ya know? Hey someone noticed that mythologies ((True or not, I won't let that discussion go anywhere.)) usually share similarities. If I remember properly, wasn't there a Greek myth of a small amount feeding many more than it should? Or the Hannakah(sp?) legend. You know, the oil for one day lasting 8? Ah, that similarity does exist... I think there's even some Japanese legends pulling this sort of miracle. I just find mythologies interesting ((Note: reffering to Bible loosely as mythology, for it is in a way.))

domokun That is SUCH a cool idea . . . I'm convinced I will try that once in my life sometime.
I wish we made stone soup in kindergarten but our school is sadly far too traditional and conservative to do anything like that . . . it's sad really.

It's always fascinating to find that well-known stories have common ties.
Thank you for sharing that with us. biggrin I had never heard that story before.

We made stone soup in kindergarten too. The story we were told was like an Aesop's Fable type thing. The characters were animals too, of course that could be a kindergarten thing. I think most religeons are VERY similar, the stories and most of the TRUE messages.

Captain Jack Sporky Just to point out, ^^^^^^ Is EXTREMELY similar to the story in the Bible, where Jesus feeds all the people off of fish. Ya know? Paganism is OLDER that Christianity, so no the story of Jesus giving fish to people in the Bible is similar to that one. Does no one remember World History lessons?? Christianity didn't come about until around the fall of Rome 3nodding EDIT: I say around the fall of Rome on a geological time frame. I few hundred years before the literal fall of Rome is still around the fall Rome because that isn't that long a period of time.
