God was upset with all mankind. He was going to create a flood to kill every one of them and every creature with breath still in it. However, he wanted to save Noah and his family. So he spoke to Noah and told Noah to build an ark out of wood and create three levels and compartments for each animal. He said that He would send Noah two of each animal and that his wives and sons and sons' wives would join him on the ark and be safe from the floods that He would bring. It flooded for forty days and forty nights. Afterwards, Noah sent out doves to see if the flood had ended. After it did so, God promised Noah that he would never again flood the earth and kill all of mankind. In promising this he showed Noah a rainbow as proof.
An animal that fascinates me has always been a penguin. I find it simply amazing that they can endure such extremely low temperatures and still survive and even have offspring. The fact that they straddle theirs eggs and waddle with them to protect them from the cold is even more interesting. They have a natural instinct to protect their eggs at all cost. I also find amusing that penguins stay in such large herds. They understand that with massive numbers comes greater heat when huddled together. The ingenious thinking behind that is brilliant.
I'm not sure whether the world will end in fire or ice. To be honest, I don't really like thinking about the end of the world. Though, if I had to choose one, I would probably say fire. Despite what a lot of people think Global Warming is a very real thing and is effecting our ecosystems around us. By the time we think of a cure for our destruction to our earth, it may be too late.
