Say Hello |
A certain American religious sect has been looking at conditions of the world |
during the Flood. |
According to their calculations, during the Flood the winds, tides and currents |
were in an overall southeasterly direction. |
This would mean that in order for Noah’s Ark to have ended up on Mount Ararat, |
it would have to have started out several thousand miles to the west. |
This would then locate pre-Flood civilization in the area of Upstate New York, |
and the Garden of Eden roughly in New York City. |
Now, in order to get from one place to another, something must move. |
No one in New York remembers moving, and there are no traces of Biblical |
history in the Upstate New York area. |
So we are led to the only available conclusion in this time warp, |
and that is that the Ark has simply not left yet. |
Let’s compare this situation to a familiar occurrence: |
You’re driving alone at night. |
And it’s dark and it’s raining. |
And you took a turn back there |
And you’re not sure now that it was the right turn, |
But you took the turn anyway |
And you just keep going in this direction. |
Eventually, it starts to get light and you look out and you realize |
You have absolutely no idea where you are. |
So you get out at the next gas station and you say: |
Hello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am? |
You can read the signs. You’ve been on this road before. Do you want to go home? |
Do you want to go home now? |
Hello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am? |
You can read this sign language. In our country, this is the way we say Hello. |
SAY HELLO. |
Hello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am? |
In our country, this is the way we say Hello. |
It is a diagram of movement between two people. |
It is a sweep on the dial. |
In our country, this is also the way we say Goodbye. |
Hello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am? |
In our country, we send pictures of people speaking our sign language in Outer |
Space. |
We are speaking our sign language in these pictures. |
Do you think that They will think his arm is permanently attached in this |
position? |
Oh, do you think They will read our signs? |
In our country, Goodbye looks just like Hello. |
SAY HELLO. |
SAY HELLO. |
SAY HELLO. |
