During the 40 days prior to Christmas the Catholic Church uses an advent wreath to symbolize the flood period of life.

One of these candles is white and symbolizes the day we first began to built our private ark. It is our Baptism candle that we must identify and light during our flood to send out the dove and see if it returns with the olive branch that will bring us the promise of new life on a new earth.

Sending this to miscellaneous religion, since I don't see what it has to do with the evolution/creation debate.

Oh sorry, I was hoping to reduce the size of the ark which seems to be the major topic at the evolution/creation forum.

You big joker.

Is your whole online persona here just pretend? For a laugh? Be honest.

Who or what I am is not important. What I write is what should be considdered.

I think it is a lovely line to at least prove that the Evolutionists haven't got the foggiest notion what the flood is all about. This in itself does not matter. It becomes a problem when it is the major premiss of their argument.

If the flood is as you describe it, then I don't think anyone has the foggiest notion of what it's all about.

Amos, come clean. If you wanted what you said to be considered you wouldn't shroud it in metaphor, contradictory terms and word play. You are a man who is conducting a conversion on the Internet, a product of the age of reason. You and the other Christians in the world are a throwback to long gone age.

amos....i'm just wondering....how does this catholic practice advance your argument that the flood literally happened? i can set up a minorah about how little grey light-bulb-headed aliens raided my underwear drawer last night, and have it up in my room for 40 days, but that doesn't prove little grey aliens actually raided my room. what exactly is your point?
