PLEASE COMMENT RATE SHARE WITH ALL FRIENDS.
For many thousands of years before anyone ever heard of jesus, the Tlingit and Haida People along this wild coast have been telling the creation story, complete with a virgin mother, around campfire and in their longhouses. I am sending it to my friend, saraSLH, the pentacostal glossolalian, speaker of tongues and true fanatic bible believer.
In the beginning the world was in total darkness. The Raven, who had existed from the beginning of time, was tired of groping about and bumping into things in the dark. Eventually the Raven came upon the home of an old man who lived alone with his daughter. Through his slyness, the Raven learned that the old man had a great treasure. This was all the light in the universe, contained in a tiny box concealed within many boxes.At once the Raven vowed to steal the light. He thought and thought, and finally came up with a plan. He waited until the old man's daughter came to the river to gather water. Then the Raven changed himself into a single hemlock needle and dropped himself into the river, just as the girl was dipping her water-basket into the river. As she drank from the basket, she swallowed the needle. It slipped and slithered down into her warm belly, where the Raven transformed himself again, this time into a tiny human. After sleeping and growing there for a very long time, at last the Raven emerged into the world once more, this time as a human infant. Even though he had a rather strange appearance, the Raven's grandfather loved him. But the old man threatened dire punishment if he ever touched the precious treasure box. Nonetheless the Ravenchild begged and begged to be allowed to hold the light just for a moment. In time the old man yielded, and lifted from the box a warm and glowing sphere, which he threw to his grandson.
As the light was moving toward him, the human child transformed into a gigantic black shadowy bird-form, wings spread ready for flight, and beak open in anticipation. As the beautiful ball of light reached him, the Raven captured it in his beak! Moving his powerful wings, he burst through the smokehole in the roof of the house, and escaped into the darkness with his stolen treasure. And that is how light came into the universe.
It certainly did not happen after your god's flood killed everyone 6,000 years ago, and it is a lot easier to talk to ravens in the here and now than to your god from Planet Glossolalia.
Corvids, Ravens are common characters in the traditional narratives and mythology around the world, notably a part of North American, Siberian, and Norse mythology.

- Vikings Celts Irish Romans all honor the black bird, also known for eating dead humans (executed, or victims of religious warfare), ravens became associated with the dead and with lost souls, and thus in Sweden are known as the ghosts of murdered persons, and in Germany as the souls of the damned.
In the Bible, ravens are mentioned on numerous occasions throughout the Old Testament. In I Kings 17:4 God commands the ravens to feed the prophet Elijah. Job ponders who feeds the ravens in Job 38:41. King Solomon is described as having hair as black as a raven in the Song of Songs 5:11. In the New Testament as well, ravens are used by Jesus as an illustration of God's provision in Luke 12:24. In the Qur'an, Raven was mentioned in the story of Cain and Abel, the two sons of Adam, as the creature who taught Cain how to bury his murdered brother in Al-Ma'ida (The Repast) 5:31. Yes its true all three holy books start out the same but all hell breaks loose when they get to the messiah part.
