if he were 600 months old, he would be 50... having only 3 children and no grandchildren would be much more believable.
and that's a low estimate... considering there were no contraceptives and television back then, he could have had 20 children at 50.
"Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation."
what do you think?

Good point. Never thought about that one. To summarize:
1. Not enough water present to flood the world to that height.
2. Not enough hydrogen to make up the difference
3. That depth of water would have crushed all plant life including seeds.
3. Noah at 600, only had 3 sons and no grandkids.
4. A rainbow appearing for the first time indicates a change in the physics of light or chemical properties of water.
5. No evidence of a global flood.

He knew God was going to destroy the earth, and didnt think he would survive. He didn't even marry until he was 400.
Figured what was the point?

If you read Genesis 5 you'll see they got married at older ages.Perhaps he was doing a lot of world wide preaching? Or maybe he needed Viagra?

Well that explains a lot about why he was such a sour puss, wouldn't you be too if you were only getting some every 200 years or so?
