Genesis 6:12 says "All flesh had corrupted their way on the earth." Do animals have moral agency? Or were they just irredeemably corrupted by their contact with humanity?

How was it possible that only one man, out of all the millions that must have been on the earth, remained righteous? You've heard the axiom that "one bad apple spoils the whole bunch"? What would happen to you if you were the only good apple among millions of rotten ones? Yet Noah kept the faith. Your community contributes to your righteousness. It can elevate you or drag you down. Choose your friends and guard your time carefully.
