Look up the "Black Sea Theory" for an interesting possible explanation of the prevalence of flood myths.

And bear in mind that any ancient tale about "the whole world" being flooded is being told by people whose entire world was extremely small :-)

Hadn't occurred to me until now that more proof of existence is required to post here than some believers ask of God.

So if any gods are lurking and reading this - first one of ya to pass a Captcha test, I will worship you.

And... go!

To me it reeks more of Jr. High where there's that girl you really really like but you're being creepy about it so you scare her off and then you become super-extra-desperate creepy trying to win her back.

Er, I mean... I hear that can happen.

Just saw HER today as well.  It's a well-made unique piece of work, and like every other Jonze movie it left me feeling weird and sad.  Probably why I've never watched any Jonze movie more than once.

But if I were to make a Weirdest and Saddest of 2013 list, it'd be #1.  And #4.
