I'm not a scholar, but I don't think Judaism or Israel came to be until after the flood, if you go by biblical history. I think the people that became Israel asked god for a king and he gave Saul the job, and thus the Israeli nation was born. long after Noah, and abraham and stuff. sketchy memories.

I love this. I will have to use this in the future, not the part about you being a quarter Sephardic, the other part.

Ya know, that's one that never occurred to me. Anyone who believes the Noah myth must logically believe the entire human race is Jewish by birth.

Then again, the literalists are not that hot on logic.
