Noah & the Flood- Haley Longworth

In Genesis chapters 6-9, God is very displeased with the evil ways of the humans inhabiting the Earth, but is content with Noah's righteous life. He decides to get rid of everyone on Earth with a flood except for Noah, his wife, his sons, and his son's wives. He orders Noah to build an ark that would house his family and two (one female and one male) of every living animal. Noah followed God's orders and when the time came, God flooded the Earth for forty days and nights, though it took much longer for the water to go down. When all the creatures and people on the boat could return to the land, God told them to multiply and inhabit the Earth. "Genesis 6-9."

An animal that fascinates me is the hummingbird. For one, it is super tiny and cute. Second, their feathers are iridescent, giving them color similar to a soap bubble, they can see and hear better than humans, and they can see ultraviolet light. I don't really know much about them, but I have always liked when they ventured to the flowers on my back porch. I believe the world would end in fire rather than ice. I feel as though we are more likely to get scorched by the sun than to have another Ice Age, which did not end the world in the first place.
