If Noah and his wife were Jewish, doesn't that mean that everyone is Jewish?

they weren't Jewish.

Wouldnt in accord to that logic we all be the result of several generations of incest?
You know, the part they left out of the movie, where Noah ****s his daughter.
Iirc, it was his daughters who screwed him, after getting him drunk with the wine he made at his newly planted vineyard.
And they did so out of desperation to reproduce in a world with no other people, not out perversion.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't Noah. It was Lot and his two daughters, the only survivors of Sodom and Gomorrah's destruction.
Oh, right, now I remember. The one righteous man/family God was able to find and spare from that destruction. Scandalously righteous. arty:
The 'one righteous man' who offered his virgin daughters to be gang-raped by a mob.
Noah's family was NOT Jewish. The Israelites were not "founded" until God granted Abraham with being the "father" of them - and that was MUCH later than the flood.If Noah and his wife were Jewish, doesn't that mean that everyone is Jewish?

Good point that Jesus takes the basic values in the old testament to a whole new level, emphasizing what we call Christian values today. Equality, mercy and forgiveness are among those values that shape our free society, much as some don't want to admit and want to turn back on our own past. We've seen the results of what that does... see Hitler.I don't know anything about being jewish or what "ancient tribe" my lily white self is from, but I do know that I belong to the family of god according to Christs teachings. And as it is about time for breakfast here, I thank Jesus for dispensing with food purity laws, so I can unashamedly enjoy some bacon and eggs !
I don't think the Jewish part came until Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the twelve tribes Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Dan, Gad, Asher, Issachar, Zebulon, Naphtali, Joseph and Benjamin.
I think this is a huge problem with many Christians today. Many refuse to see their stories as what they truly are: mythology. There is no difference between ancient Greek myths and the myths of modern Christians. Both mythologies are designed to teach lessons about what their culture considers proper, moral, and correct. But, just as many ancient Greeks thought their myths were utter truth, so do many modern Christians.I am most likely Germanic so no, I am not Jewish.
Also, what Noah, I do not believe in that fairy tale about him and his family being the only ones left alive on the planet. I do not believe the earth totally flooded, the story about all the animals on the boat is totally unbelievable, sorry, I think it is a work of fiction that was supposed to be a lesson for Christians.
