See, jayhoover doesn't like poeple who pass notes, like us apostates, 'cause Noah took no note.

It is likely that there were around a billion people on earth by the time of Noah, taking into account that it was 2000 years since the creation of Adam, that they lived up to 1000 years, and the size of the families listed in the Bible. There is no way that Noah preached to even the smallest fraction of them. Yet fundies, like JWs, say that they won't get a resurrection!

@bats: That is incredible! What a list of scriptures to prove a point! Love it! Going to mark that. Can't wait to show others!
Thank you very much!

Now that we have seen what the Bible said, what did the Watchtower say?
Did Noah Preach?
WT 12/15/2010, No
WT 1/15/2000, Yes
WT 10/15/1997, "likely" yes
WT 11/15/1996, Yes
WT 2/1/1983, Yes
WT 3/15 1971, Yes
WT 5/1/1963, Yes
WT 1/15/1961, Yes
WT 1/1/1959, Yes
WT 10/1/1955, Yes, assumed using self contradicting logic.
WT 10/15/1952 yes, "Just as Noah learned of the coming flood and was a preacher of righteousness and preached the saving news in his day...." LOL.He preached "the saving news", but for all those years of preaching he conscripted less followers than Charlie Manson. Not a single soul was saved by his preaching efforts. Maybe if he had given his kids publisher cards to fill out so they couldn't skive off to Mackers he could have saved someone?

Included in the list of people who "took no note" were the following well-established cultures and civilizations:
Mesopotamia, the Indus Valley, Egypt, the Minoans, and the Chinese.
Not only did these cultures "take no note" of Noah's warning, they also "took no note" of the flood itself, since we can see through archaeological records that their civilizations proceeded uninterrupted right through the time when they should have been wiped out by Noah's flood.
The flood myth is one of the funnest bible stories to pick apart because it's probably the most ridiculous story ever, when you take it literally.
