Q&@
NOAH EMERGED
FROM HIS ARK, THE
VERY FIRST THING HE DID
WAS SACRIFICE SOME ANIMALS
TO THE GODS! THÈN, tells the epic,
all great gods rushed to the spot: "THE GODS SMELLED
THE SAVOUR/THE GODS SMELLED THE SWEET SAVOUR/
THE GODS SWARMED LIKE FLIES AROUND THE OFFERING!"
The biblical story of the deluge {already written more than 1,000 years
after the Mesopotamian version} also reports that immediately upon leaving the Ark,
'Noah built an Altar to the Lord and, taking some of the clean animals & clean birds, he sacrificed
burnt offerings òn ìt! The Lord G d SMELLED THE PLEASING AROMA AND SAID IN HIS HEART:
NEVER AGAIN WILL I CURSE THE GROUND BECAUSE OF HUMANS' according to Genesis 8:20-I?!
Thìs deluge story became a founding myth of the agricultural world!? If is possible of course to give it
a modern environmentalist spin! The deluge could teach us that our actions can ruin the entire ecosystem,
and humans are divinely charged with protecting the rest of this creation?! Yet traditional interpretations
saw the deluge as proof of human supremacy & animal worthlessness... According to these
interpretations, NOAH was instructed TO SAVE THE WHOLE ECOSYSTEM
IN ORDER TO PRO-TECT THE COMMON INTEREST OF GODS
AND HUMANS RATHER THAN THE INTERESTS OF THE
ANIMALS. NON-HUMAN ORGANISMS HAVE
NO INTRINSIC VALUE; THEY
EXIST SOLELY FOR
OUR SAKE
