Talk:Plants and the global flood

Don't ferns have really, really hardy spores? -- מְתֻרְגְּמָן וִיקִי שְׁלֹום!

Comment - title should match the aquatic one. Another comment - weeds = hardy??? Conifers = not??? Right now if I edit this article for accuracy there won't be anything left... The only plant I can think of having trouble might be trees whose seeds require a good fire to germinate, but the seeds only live 20-30 years so might not get the chance. Whoever ends up writing this should at least know the difference between a gymnosperm and an angiosperm. human  15:10, 31 March 2008 (EDT)

Alternate explaination
There is another explaination for plant survival during the flood. According to publishers advertisement in a book I borrowed, there is childrens book written by a Rabbi about the story of Naamah (sp?), Noah's wife, who was given the job of gathering the seed of every plant on earth while her husband gathered the animals. According to the caption, the story was based on Jewish legend.--4.233.121.213 16:17, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * No mention of the second boat to carry 'em all though? 16:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * "...the story was based on Jewish legend." I lolled.  19:20, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * That just reintroduces the problem of distribution they already have with the animals though. --GTac 19:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * They traveled on floating mats of animalation, of course. 19:41, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
