Antidiluvean era, Christians and the Environment - 1:28 PM, Jun. 13, 2009

A friend of mine from Long Beach, Mississippi, asked me about a term I used in a description of photos from my local field trips. I used the term "Antidiluvean". It means "before the flood", referring to Noah's flood. Now, most scholars consider this to be Pleistocene age, or older- Mammoths, mastodons, sabre-tooth cats. I like the term. It's now used when talking about anceint Mu or Atlantis- Those bad people that got wiped out by God, because they developed their civilization recklessly. Anyway, the end of the Pleistocene was horrific, with disastrous floods all over the place, rising sea levels, and entire cities swamped. Why? Because the ice sheets in Canada and elsewhere melted. That's a fact. And, it's a moral lesson we need to heed. If the icecaps melt any more, the oceans could rise up to 300 feet. No more coastal towns. Millions of buildings destroyed. Souls lost to the waves. All Christians should be rampant environmentalists.
