Only the followers of the Hebrew god are inbred. This explains their "reasoning" abilities.
Everyone else knows that it is unwise to have sex with your sister.

The story is true. Noah his wife and their son's and their wives obeyed God and survived. But, Adam and Eve's son Cain took one of his sisters as his wife. Because they were so close to perfection in those days, having children with a close relative was allowed for a time. So in answer we are all related. Imbred, technically no.

Don't really know with the Noah thing. I thought I'd heard an explanation of it a long time ago, but frankly I don't remember it.
The loading of all species on the boat in pairs though has interested me. I don't have much faith in the accuracy of the bible, and I don't know if it talks about physically loading these animals on the boats, but couldn't it be possible that in fact God gave Noah the DNA of every species in pairs? Then from there, once the flood had ended, God allowed the animals to procreate? Dunno..just a thought.

That would go for the Adam & Eve story as well.
Personally, I believe nearly everything in the Bible is alogory or parable and don't take any of it literally, from the parting of the Red Sea to the virgin birth.
Flood stories are known the world over. There is a flood story in the Epic of Gilgamesh that is very similar to the Biblical flood story and predates the bible and comes from the area around the Euphrates. Here's a link with lots of other flood stories.

Yes. Also all of the animals on earth are also inbred too, and they had to fit on the ark. It's amazing that new species are being discovered, considering that we knew about them all a few thousand years ago. Let's say that there are only 50 million species on the planet, and it only took Noah 5 minutes to load each pair: it would have taken him 10,000 years to load up the boat! It's amazing that a boat that was less than 200 yards long could house all of those animals.

That would be true whether one goes back to Noah, Adam or for those who prefer evolution, to the first homo sapiens to emerge, unless they're going to try and claim that humans evolved in different places in great numbers all at the same time.

Yes. It's the same with the Adam and Eve story too.
