Genesis 7:5-9 (The Living Bible)

[joannaingram84]

So Noah did everything the Lord commanded him. He was 600 years old when the flood came. He boarded the boat with his wife and sons and their wives, to escape the flood. With him were all the various kinds of animals - those for eating and sacrifice, and those that were not, and the birds and reptiles. They came into the boat in pairs, male and female, just as God commanded Noah.

Or,
g-d: 'I want you to build an ark.'
 
Noah: "Right ... What's an ark?"
 
g-d: 'Get some wood and build it 300 cubits by 80 cubits by 40 cubits.'
 
Noah: "Right ... What's a cubit?"
 
g-d: 'Well never mind. Don't worry about that right now. After you build the
      ark, I want you to go out into the world and collect all the animals of the
      world, two by two, male and female, and put them into the ark.'
 
Noah: "Right ... Who is this really? What's going on? How come you want me to
       do all these weird things?"
 
g-d: 'I'm going to destroy the world.'
 
Noah: "Right ... Am I on Candid Camera? How are you gonna do it?"
 
g-d: 'I'm going to make it rain for a thousand days and drown them right out.'
 
Noah: "Right ... Listen, do this and you'll save water. Let it rain for forty
      days and forty nights and wait for the sewers to back up."

"The g-d of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction."

He was 600 years old whe the flood came.  And people wonder why I question religion.  Doesn't make any sense how someone can question my thinking for being weary of something that says someone was 600 years old.
