How big is that lake?
I mean really, just how many frogs can fit into any landbound body of water? And why are they suddenly beating feet for populated areas? Here's the followup to an earlier story;
The Associated Press THESSALONIKI, Greece - Thousands of frogs are still slowing traffic on a busy Greek highway, a day after a horde of them forced officials to close the road altogether.
Police said Thursday they were directing traffic around frogs on the Egnatia Highway about 20 kilometres (12.5 miles) outside Greece's second largest city, Thessaloniki.
The frogs, leaving a nearby lake to look for food, were expected to disrupt traffic through the weekend.
Police closed a section of the road Wednesday after three cars skidded off the road when the drivers tried to dodge the frogs.
When was the last time anyone heard of something like this and it was actually proven beyond all doubt to originate from a nearby lake? These stories never have a followup with any really plausible explanation, as per this one . They just get dumped into the circular file and forgotten.
My point in all of this is that theres a lot more going on in this world than any human can account for. When I get into discussions with athiests/agnostics I don't bring up religious miracles or teaching, I go for the unexplained such this to prove my point. Since they always seem to come from a viewpoint of "If you were as intellectual as I, you'd be able to understand how easily explained all the religious mumbo jumbo is."
When they can't explain the nonreligious "mumbo jumbo" the conversation usually shifts abruptly.
