Subject: Did Jonah die in the belly of the fish? |
Bible Note: Hi Brad Sorry if I seem to be ungraceful, but, the story would indeed give credibility if it were possible it was credible. Although there are sharks and whales large enough to hold a man in their bellies, their throats are not large enough to accommodate something that large. In the case of the sperm whale for instance [the largest carnivore on the planet] their esophagus is not much larger then a big grapefruit. MY brother this thread has strayed to far from the intent of this forum so this will be my last word. I had no intention for it to go even as far as it has, I was just attempting to bring things down to the ground if you please, with some good old horse sense. Again I am sorry to appear ungraceful but credibility and "Truth" is what I am after here. BY the way, did "rare" graduate to "fantastic: and bizarre"? I guess I missed it.... :-) And again, my apology. I have no intention to offend. God bless John |
