Re: PROOF: Noah's Ark Existed!

He seems incapable of doing many things. He was incapable of destroying a plane packed with Muslim terrorists from crashing into a New York skyscraper.

You're mistaken, dear. The LORD was not only capable of inspiring a drunken old man to build an ark to save all animal kind of the entire earth, He was capable of ensuring enough animals would survive to satiate His Holy Appetite for Burnt Sacrifices after all was said and done (Genesis 8:20). Similarly, the LORD could have single handedly cured polio, smallpox, and bacterial infections for centuries prior to vaccines and antibiotics. For reasons that are superior to our fallible intellect, He chose not to. So obviously, the LORD could have not only thwarted the muslim terrorists' childish and evil plan to essentially knock over the largest sandcastle on the beach, but He decided it would be better not to. Goodness, He could have turned the airplane into manna so that the falling manna could have fed the many thousands of starving and homeless people in New York City, had He wanted, He is God after all. He didn't want to, which ought never be confused with He wanted to but couldn't.

Obama was a senator in Illinois at the time the 911 attack happened. Bush, largely considered a conservative president was in office at the time. And the terrorists would disagree with you on who sent them.

Nonsense. There are no limits to what God can do. America got punished for voting for Obama there.

Re: PROOF: Noah's Ark Existed!

Many ships have shown great capacity to survive even the fiercest storms. While the flood may have sank a few ships, a lot will have survived and will think of this storm as nothing more than a hurricane (they call them cyclones there)

So you think God, who has created EVERYTHING, is not capable of destroying a few sinner loaded boats!?

Re: PROOF: Noah's Ark Existed!

I am not saying if or but, i guarantee there were other ships in the ocean at the time. The bible was not written anywhere near India, a popular area for ships, nor does it describe how the coast of morocco handled it. Ships, well stocked ships, would be at sea at the time and they would have survived the flood.

Contrary to popular opinion, Jesus was not born at Christmas, he was born sometime in the spring, a fact backed up by records in the Roman census.

Friend, God flooded all lands. He would of also sunk all ships but Noah's.
Have you even read the Bible?

Re: PROOF: Noah's Ark Existed!

Mercy? Sailors could easily gain sustenance from the fish in the ocean. They would get water from the rain. They would be able to survive up to the point of Noah's apparently rapid re-population program.

Friend, none did survive. You can make all the hypothetical statements you want yet it still does not vary the Biblical facts in history.
If if's and buts were candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry Jesus's Birth Day celebration.

Re: PROOF: Noah's Ark Existed!

The Phonetician empire, in existence in 2300 BC, regularly made voyages that could last eighty days or even a few months. A well stocked trading galley headed for India from the Persian gulf could easily survive 120 days or more without resupply. If this happened during the rainy season and they were far enough from shore, they would be surprised when their destination city was no longer there.

As those that refused to heed Gods Perfect Word, no doubt were surprised to find what ever river city they were trying to find, gone. However, being God is merciful, He no doubt sunk those ships during the flood to save them the torture of traveling around and around with no end in sight. Praise the Glory of God!

Re: PROOF: Noah's Ark Existed!

Its not whether or not people could build a Biblically correct ark. At the size estimates you give, such a craft would be smaller than your average aircraft carrier. But a ship that size can't have the capacity to hold 2 let alone seven of each type of animal. The king James Bible, the one most accepted here says that 7, not two of each animal was on the ark, this is rather vague. Is it 7 male and seven female, six male and one female, the safest when it comes to the animals might be six female and one male, either way, a boat that size could not fit them.

It does say that there were seven "kinds" so I will simplify animals with species variations into one species (African Elephant and Indian Elephant = elephant). Lets put them in shall we, 7 elephants, 7 rhinos, 7 hippos, 7 bears, 7 crocodiles, 7 big cats (simplified lions and tigers and others into big cats), 7 wolves, 7 antelope, 7 sheep, 7 ostrich. Already pretty full, but this ship would also need to carry food and fresh water for all the animals and the humans. It would also need to carry supplies so the human family on board to rebuild. The ship wuld also need to carry seeds of many plant species to repopulate after the flood.

Another concern of mine, did no one else have a boat at that time. If a single family could make an aircraft carrier size boat, then surely other people would be able to make other boats. If a boat were at sea, it might not even notice the rising waters. If a boat were off the coast of India where sometimes rain can last for 40 days, they would not notice anything out of the ordinary at all.

Firstly, God kept Noah and his family alive so there is no further questions about that.
Secondly, no one but Noah and his family believed there would be a flood so they didn't make the right preparations.
