Beginning of the chapter

Ok thanks I’ll dig that up lol

But that’s like Genesis 1 in their prayer.

There's an OLD poem known to this day with the Miao people, an ethnic minority

Biologically they're the same as Han, Zhuang etc. But they have different social traditions and still live in a primitive way

They're extremely hospitable though

In the poem, it specifically tells the creation story, flood story, and tower

Oh wow

At their funerals they read the deceased's genealogy. All the way back to Adam.

Yeah I’d like to see that if you have it.

In their flood story it's very specific. Noah and 40 days

Yeah that’s interesting.

Miao didnt write it down. You'd have to ask them yourself

They do elaborate on some things not recorded in the Bible, at least not that I remember

They specify at the tower, the world was divided into six languages

It's certainly possible, and then those six evolved and split into many more

Well damn. So it’s an oral only then?

Yep

They were saying it before the Bible was even written

Well that sucks lol. Make them write it down 🤣

Yeah. Which is very interesting.

Oh you could just ask them. They're really friendly

Yeah. But that means going to China 🤷🏼‍♂️🤣

If you showed up in a Miao village they would all beg you to come stay at their house and feed you

in their version, did the Flood happen because of the Watchers' presence on earth

or rather, a reason for the Flood

It gives a reason yes

Didn't do God's will or return God's affection

Fought with each other

so it isn't super specific

i wanted to hear their take on

the nephilim and stuff

lol

it is very interesting that they talk of the Deluge though

It's an oral tradition

Actually I'm not even sure they CAN write

Literacy in China is like 92%

That is pretty cool though. Those similarities.

Thanks to 400,000+ characters

yea that'd be a lot to learn

The bitch of it is, they are heiroglyphics. There is absolutely no way to determine the sounds from reading. It's all memorization
