In other words, if it's some other person's lack of precise alignment of
thoughts, it's accommodation; but you don't accommodate. More or less is
wrong for others, not for you?

Hi David,
Good try, no cigar.

>>>DS Does this mean that the Mediterranean dried out a year after it
filled, as Genesis 8:13f declares, or are you accommodating?

GRM: Oh, David, you of little faith, to think I hadn't already thought
of that. Genesis 6:13: And God said to Noah, "I am going to put an end
to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I
am surely going to destroy both them and the earth."
Now, the word earth is 'eretz', meaning 'land' If God did to the land
what he did to the people (wipe them out, destroy them), then the land
must also have been destroyed. God didn't kill the people and then raise
them. Neither does the Bible indicate that he flooded that land and then
restored it (a floating ark will go somewhere else--to a different place
from where it started). In the traditional interpretation, the land was
not really destroyed, but only got wet for a while. With the
Mediterranean Flood, the land was actually destroyed, just as the Bible
says.
So, to answer your question, I am NOT accommodating. Take that in either
definition of the term.
