Is the Noah's Ark story true?

I might try to look that one up for you and get you a link latter.

I still wait for your 'evidence'. You promised evidence, and there are none yet.

I see a line of animals
as far as one's eyes can see
and here master blaster T-rex
with his enormous pecs
along with his T-rex regina
who has an enormous vagina
and here comes Mr. Camel and Miss. Dromedary
talkinf bout their baby who was due
the two lovely camels were wondering
if their baby would have one hump or two
and then Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
Eating a Big Mac and Fries
Then came Boris the spider beside her
insisting that he prefers flies
then came along two snails
believeng that their love prevails
then came tha ants

...two ants with simple features
who both in fact were scary creatures
Then there the arc became bit messy
coz along came Mrs. Preety Bessie
a fine & cute hot-blooded Dalmatian
side by side with an Alsatian
and then came along dog named Li Hong
Who came all the way from Hong Kong
together with his beloved Chow Main,
an AC/DC groupie who loved Iron Maiden
😵

Gee, this by far more awful than my wildest imagination could fancy😵

I can guarantee you that even if you dig WAY under the surface it's still as ridiculous as you suppose.

For example: There are 350.000 different sorts of beetles.
Now, that's already 700.000 beetles Noah would have had to have on board his boat.

The black beetles survived allright as far as I am concerned😵

Chess rating is a poor indicator of intelligence. [This is not meant as a slight on KellyJay.] One of the reasons is that knowing chess theory is essential to playing well, and this is gained by study and experience. Raw intelligence alone is not enough.

For example, Albert Einstein was reputedly an 1800 player, while John Wayne played at a 2000+ level, yet few would claim John Wayne was smarter than Einstein.

Einstein was not a good player because he was always looking for the concept of an holistic equilibrium between the natural forces, and the struggle associated with chess was against his physical tendency. He once stated that he does not consider himself a chess genious and he respected his friend Emmanuel Lasker.
BTW Lasker had offer to Einstein his book about go with his autograph and a dedication, and Einstein offered him in return in order to thank him some of his hand written math notes. After a while, when Lasker heard from a friend of his that the go book he gave to Einstein was spotted at a bookstore, he replied to his friend:
-- "No problem; I left his notes at the metro"

And this is a game of Einstein with the White against J.R. Oppenheimer at Princeton, 1933:

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 b5 5.Bb3 Nf6 6.0-0 Nxe4 7.Re1 d5 8.a4 b4 9.d3 Nc5 10.Nxe5 Ne7 11.Qf3 f6 12.Qh5+ g6 13.Nxg6 hg6 14.Qxh8 Nxb3 15.cb3 Qd6 16.Bh6 Kd7 17.Bxf8 Bb7 18.Qg7 Re8 19.Nd2 c5 20.Rad1 a5 21.Nc4 dc4 22.dc4 Qxd1 23.Rxd1+ Kc8 24.Bxe7 1-0

However some people insist that this Spanish was playd by Hans-Albert, Einstein's son, against Oppenheimer😵

i read somewhere that he did not like chess because one wrong move and the whole house comes down like a house of cards! awesome post beetle ya lang leggedy beastie!

Lasker himself favored the open Ruy Lopez as black, he states that when white offers such an important pawn as the king pawn, why should we not take it?

Oh of course you can take it, it's OK. I just use to avoid it because my chess understanding is limited to the closed openings wan dot d four ye know, haggis and malt and one hundrend pipers marchin up the slippery slope 😵
