it's amazing that the religious nutcases haven't taken up this challenge
and built an ark and housed animals in it to try and prove us all wrong.

You have no authority or justification in calling anyone a nutcase other
than yourself. I think if we were to print up all your posts here and
take them with you to a mental institute, they would admit you without
question. Whether for your own protection of the simple irony of it all, I
am unsure...

when the first human couple sinned, they initiated a flaw in the genetic
code of the human race. perhaps it was something in the fruit of the tree
they were warned not to eat. but they were created with a perfect genetic
code and meant to live forever until that day when they sinned and began

die. Noah took 120 years to build the ark and give ample time for any
humble, god-loving ones to repent from their errant course... yes, they

warned for 120 years while Noah built the ark. no one today lives to be

until the advent of medical ways to cure illnesses that are inherent in
sinful humans, the life expectancy from Adam through the 19th century
continued to decrease.

ever make a VHS copy of a VHS tape and then copy that copy and copy that
copy generation after generation. eventually you get something quite
inferior to the original production... but I digress.

so what you fail to understand is this; it took Noah 120 years to build

ark... day in and day out...
Noah knew why he had to do that for 120 years... he had a purpose for

so. no one today even has 120 years to build an ark... and they also have

reason to do so today since God has promised not to ever flood the

land again.

Noah lived to be 950 years old. he was much closer to the originally
genetically perfect man Adam than we are today

The Bible is claimed to be the inerrant word of God
The story of Noah and the flood is only one of many ridiculous biblical
tales with no authentication or plausibility of any kind. It is an
impossible story.
1. The largest boat ever built could not even come close to housing
Noah,
his sons, wives and two of every type of animal on earth. And this was a
boat built of wood many thousands of years ago. There are 1.7 million
KNOWN
species of animals on this planet. This is patently impossible, using
only
materials and tools available to Noah, to build an arch large enough to
hold
all these creatures, together with suitable environments for each of
them
to live in, keeping them all separated so they don't eat or kill each
other.
And then provide room and an environments for many hundreds of millions
of
known species of insects, plants, molds etc. on this planet?
2. Where did they house all of the new born during this ten month
escapade?
3. In addition, the ship would have to carry a TEN MONTHS supply of food
and
fresh water for the people and thousands of animals for them to survive.
What would the carnivores have eaten? Whatever prey they ate would have
gone
extinct. How did they dispose of the thousands of tons of feces? It must
have been one stinking ship!
4. Now according to the Bible the earth was flooded for ten months. This
would kill off all the vegetation. What did the animals eat for an
additional year or more after the flood subsided?
5. Noah sends a dove out to see if there was any dry land. But the dove
returns without finding any. Then, just seven days later, the dove goes
out
again and returns with an olive leaf. But how could an olive tree
survive
the flood? And if any seeds happened to survive, they certainly wouldn't
germinate and grow leaves within a seven day period. 8:8-11.
6. And according to this myth, Noah was also over 600 years old!
This is a grossly implausible tale that ranks as greater tale than Santa
Claus, The Easter Bunny and The Tooth Fairy!
Genesis 6:6
6 The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart
was
filled with pain.
7 So the LORD said, "I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the
face
of the earth-men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground,
and
birds of the air-for I am grieved that I have made them."
9 Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and
he
walked with God.
Genesis 7
1 The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole
family,
because I have found you righteous in this generation. 2 Take with you
seven
[a] of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and two of every
kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, 3 and also seven of every
kind
of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout
the
earth. 4 Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty
days
and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every
living
creature I have made."
6 Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came on the earth.
7
And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives entered the ark
to
escape the waters of the flood. 8 Pairs of clean and unclean animals, of
birds and of all creatures that move along the ground, 9 male and
female,
came to Noah and entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah. 10 And
after
the seven days the floodwaters came on the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, on the seventeenth day of
the
second month-on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth,
and
the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth
forty days and forty nights.
13 On that very day Noah and his sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth, together
with
his wife and the wives of his three sons, entered the ark. 14 They had
with
them every wild animal according to its kind, all livestock according to
their kinds, every creature that moves along the ground according to its
kind and every bird according to its kind, everything with wings. 15
Pairs
of all creatures that have the breath of life in them came to Noah and
entered the ark. 16 The animals going in were male and female of every
living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.
17 For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and as the waters
increased they lifted the ark high above the earth. 18 The waters rose
and
increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of
the
water. 19 They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains
under
the entire heavens were covered. 20 The waters rose and covered the
mountains to a depth of more than twenty feet. [b] , [c] 21 Every living
thing that moved on the earth perished-birds, livestock, wild animals,
all
the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. 22 Everything
on
dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died. 23 Every
living
thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; men and animals and the
creatures that move along the ground and the birds of the air were wiped
from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.
24 The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days.

Genesis 7:6 (New International Version)
6 Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came on the earth.
7 And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives entered the ark
to
escape the waters of the flood
Genesis 8
1 But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock
that
were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth, and the
waters
receded.
3 The water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred
and
fifty days the water had gone down,
4 and on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest
on
the mountains of Ararat.
5 The waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first
day
of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible
Genesis 9 God's Covenant With Noah
1 Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, "Be fruitful and
increase in number and fill the earth.
2 The fear and dread of you will fall upon all the beasts of the earth
and
all the birds of the air, upon every creature that moves along the
ground,
and upon all the fish of the sea; they are given into your hands.
3 Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave
you
the green plants, I now give you everything.
4 "But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it.
5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will
demand
an accounting from every animal. And from each man, too, I will demand
an
accounting for the life of his fellow man.

Before man learned how to create a fire, he had no choice but to eat raw
meat.

Here's a great challenge for any fundamentalist who insists that the
biblical Ark story is literally true, and would help to prove that
the
story was possible rather than impossible.
You want to show the world that an Ark could be built and used the
way
the bible says it was?
Forget about twisting geological science or pushing the boundaries
of
sense and logic.
Build one.
Use only materials and tools available to Noah.
Then fill it with a pair of every known species of creature,
together
with suitable environments for each of them to live in, keeping them

all

separately so they don't eat or kill each other.
Make sure you build it as quickly as Noah did, then take it to sea
for
forty days.
So, get cracking on that gopher wood guys, this is a great
opportunity
once and for all to make those damned disbelievers look like fools,

isn't

it?
...Hmmmm..... No takers?
Come on! - If you can spend millions on a Creation Museum surely you

can

spare a few million for this?
Think of the money you could make afterwards charging people to see
it.

Funny no one has done this, it would be the perfect way to silence
the
hereitcs

when the first human couple sinned, they initiated a flaw in the genetic
