hoped that by voluntarily sacrificing few human
beings at stated intervals the gods would refrain
from trying to exterminate everybody again.
NOV for the evidence against the heavenly
Y hobo Evidence is of two kinds, testimony by
persons and that by mute, inanimate objects. The
last, known as circumstantial is often more re-
liable but must first be discovered and then inter
preted. l will jump back and forth as one kind Of
evidence corroborates the other.
We should begin with the best known of all,
the Old Testament account of the deluge. There
can be no doubt that this is account of genuine
flood, the only important questions being when it
happened how extensive it was and how accurate
the various details are to be considered.
There are far older records Of that flood legend
than the Book of Genesis. For instance with
Noah by another name, and an Ark, more than
five times as big it has been found on clay tablets,
written in the cuneform script of the Sumerians
which was already dead language when the Old
Testament was being set down.
This version, known the Gigamesh legend
is a narrative close enough for an infringement

of a covenant between me and the earth.
And it shall come to pass when prlng
cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seer
in the cloud" Genesis *, 13-14D
We set that aside as pure poetry. but nothln1
more because the prismatic effect OF sunlight
passing through raindrops must have been th7
same before as after the deuge.
The Sumerian account has it also. After tell
ing of the dismay of the gods at the flood in which
they crouched like dogs against wall and lshtai
screamed like a woman in childbirth, there come4
the same happy ending:
"Then Ishtar the mighty goddess, lights ud
the mighty bow or collar of great gems lshtat
hung the rainbow in the sky
Never mind this only shows that the poetic
thought was invented that much earlier we STRIKE
out the rainbow testimony and tell the jury to ds|
regard it. But no sooner have we thrown 1t OUT
of court than in it comes again from other witt
nesses who cannot be-accused of collision. How
can it be explained that traditions from South
America, telling of flood at about that 2
time, feature the rainbow?
The old Chibchas of Bogota on the high savan|
nahs of modern Colombia, say they were civilized
by a certain old man in black, named Bochicha|
When Bochicha came to quell the flood he wal
seated a rainbow
The Incas of Peru also said that the rainbow
was sign that the world would no more bl
drowned They attributed it to the sun-god Vira|
cocha who appeared at Lake Titcaca after grea|
deluge.

continent of South America
Also it had to supply enough to
account for the Biblical deluge
which Captain Noah rode out in
his Ark. Since both these catas-
trophies evidently happened
about the same time Twas bound
20 believe that they must have
been caused by the same terrific
force.
If the South American con-
tinent had sunk to the bottom Of
the ocean about 10000 years
ago, it would have drowned out
the cities. Then had it imme-
diately risen again, the tidal
wave would have engulfed other

The Sumerians annoyed
the early archaeologists by

In pruning away from thd|
Biblical narrative, all addi1

go would surely be that
beautifully-poetic promise of
