God tells them to go out, but Nimrod refuses.  First and last attempt at one world religion.  Shinar=modern day Iraq (Mesopotamian River Valley). Ziggurat--false religions through astrology.  "Let us...let us...let us..." or we will be scattered.  Then God comes back "let us..." to clean it up.

****************************

God is interested in theology, not geology.  He's only interested in you.  Your soul, your heart, your life.
God is holy and God will judge.

When in doubt, let God be right.  You just keep your mouth shut. Much better.

anthropomorphism--characteristics of God that seem human are for us to better understand  "God remembered

Built ark for 120 years.
Preaching went unheeded in the time of Noah.
ark--picture of our salvation, only way to be saved from judgement

The Bible is not written to give you all the answers, just the only answer.  He chooses what He wants to share.  God has an agenda.
