To my fellow Christians in Canada. I pray for you and your country. What’s being allowed to take place cannot be easy. Stay strong.
Please enlighten the rest of us 😊
There are 110 religions on the planet and they all have their own Noah story, doesn't that mean anything to you.
@@davidclark573 are you talking to me or Sean?
What is being allowed in Canada?
@@hoodagooboy5981 I also wanna know😂
So why don't you build one and see how well it floats and what it can hold?
The Hebrew word for ark it means a protective box and they make barrages rectangle as they are more stronger and less likely to flip like ship hulls will. And even Moses was told to make the ark of the covenant and it was rectangular again proving the ark is a protective box nothing more or less.
I agree. It did not have a bow or stern.
I remember on a documentary on tv years ago, some experts were talking about if you could build a ark the size of what it says in the bible.
They did experiments with miniature models.
It was found that making a boat or ship that size would have leaked, because wood twists.
Even Spanish galleons, would have been dwarfed by the ARK
Just a thought.
I might get hate mail now
The necessary miracles to pull off the Ark mount up. God is good. He's performed miracles in my life and He is able to overcome every obstacle.
@@GizmoFromPizmo
Can I ask you, what is a miracle god has done for you? (Give me a good example, not just something like you were able to get a job or god sent me the perfect wife)
Look, I am open minded, but have never seen a miracle happen, even in all my years of going to church.
Even I have prayed for certain things to be healed, nothing.
@@peterc3143 I will give you one. I had a Hernia, and I was going to the doctor the next day. But the night before Sunday Night, I was going to go up to the Altar and have the Pastor pray for me to be healed. But there was a lady there having demons being cast out of her and it was taking a long time, and so the pastor ended the service, and he said that if you wanted you could come and help pray for this lady. And I thought to myself, "I don't need anyone to pray for me, The Lord can heal me by Himself". And I was going to go ahead and leave and then decided to go up and pray for the lady to be free of demons instead. As I was deep in prayer for this lady, The Lord Spoke to me Very Loud and Clear But at the Same time, It was like a Whisper, and He simply said: "Your Healed". When I heard it, I stopped praying immediately and listened for a few seconds, and then started praying again for the lady till she was delivered. I forgot all about the Lord saying that to me, until the Next Morning. I was at my big saw at a large woodworking company, and the buzzer went off... And Then I Remembered! And I realized then that I didn't have the pain, So I decided to slide up 3 sheets of on top of my saw which the stack was really low and the total weight was 390 lbs, but I picked up one end on to the saw, and then picked up the other end and slide it all the way on to the saw. I was Amazed! So I was like, Did that really Happen? So I wanted to check again and I decided to do it again. I slide those 3 sheets, and put them back up onto the saw again!
So, a couple weeks later it felt like the hernia had come back, but the Holy Spirit let me know that that was the devils putting pain back on me to get me to agree with the demons and loose my healing. So when I felt the pain, I just told the demons, "I am Healed, God Spoke to me and I am healed". This battle went on for about 2 weeks, but then it just stopped. So, Yes, God Heals. But something I have realized is that if you have any forgiveness toward anybody, that will prevent your healing from happening.
And What you say Matters. Your Words are Powerful. So Declare God's Healing for you and Declare God's Word Out loud for your healing. And just keep doing that.
Meditate on These Scriptures:
Mark 11:12-26 (KJV)
12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he (Jesus) found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.
18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.
19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
God Bless You Peter!
@@peterc3143 First of all, refer to God and all titles bestowed to Him with a capital first letter to honor His Being. Personally seen quite of few miracles in my life as well as my family's life. I have seen cancer cured in Mom in just a few months, without surgery, my epilepsy as a boy was cured by Him. Epilepsy stays with you all your life.
You are quite correct, every aspect of the story is impossible.
I still find difficult believing that Canada geese from Canada, kangaroos and koalas from Australia, pandas from China, penguins from Antarctica, white bears from North Pole, buffalos and caribous from North America, deers from Finland, lamas and condors from Chile and Argentina etc. all walked, flew or swam to Mesopotamia or Juda to embark the ark...
@Tahititoutou Don't know if this will help as I have asked the same question. After researching, I learned that many animals evolved from other animals. For example...just a plan bear could eventually turn into a brown bear, a white bear, etc...they evolved by where they lived. Also, I don't think all the lands were up yet until after the flood so we really don't know. A good example is in CO, dinosaur bones have been found. Where did they come from? So I think the animals that came into the ark were the beginning of all the animals as they evolved through time. Would love to know your thoughts.
@@simplydanlrene4276 We actually DO KNOW that it is simply impossible for the flood to have happened as there has NEVER been a point in time where the surface of the Earth has ever been 100% under water, 80% is about the maximum it has ever been PROVEN to have been covered, and that was over 2 BILLION years ago. Humans have only existed for about 2 million years. Homo Sapiens have only existed for about 250 thousand years. So, your god is so powerful that it flooded the Earth and then REMOVED every piece of evidence that would prove it happened. Now, THAT is a powerful god!
There weren’t continental separations until after the flood when mountains and chasms arose to split land Then the subsequent ice ages caused some areas to be cut off from each other leading to genetic divisions among species including people to develop specific traits (days of Peleg in the Bible also talks about this post flood division).
@@christina166 LIAR!!!! You make up bullshit and expect people to actually BELIEVE it??? Why do you feel you need to justify your god doing a miracle? Doesn't he have the ability to simply bypass the laws of physics and reality and simply make things happen the way he wants? Who needs any proof??? Why make up bullshit to justify your belief system??? If you BELIEVE, there is no need for PROOF! LOL! Modern Christinsanity is amazing.
@@christina166 But your bible says the floods covered all the Mountains, you are claiming they did not even exist until after the flood! LOL!! You need to keep your bullshit straight, it is too easy to prove you a liar!
The one rule I have come to understand in regard to the scriptures is: The thing is rarely the "thing". Take תבה which is the word used for ark. As it is said early on in the video, this word is used for both the vessel which Noah and his family were rescued through, as well as the wicker basket which the child Moses was delivered to the daughter of Pharaoh. Deliverance seems to be the main issue at hand, not the mode of said deliverance. Therefore, the shape of said vessels cannot be devised by comparison, only their use. The thing, is not the thing.
Current boat building tech involves fibres of glass ( silicon) in a matrix of hydrocarbon resin.
The hull of the ark may have been constructed from wood B ark woven in a matrix of pitch which is also a hydro carbon compound. The patri arks and matri arks emb arked on the ark aich ark itype designed by an ark itect.

I really appreciate the form of your videos. Many of the Answers in Genesis videos are very long and, many times, are just a recording of a lecture. Don't get me wrong, I still like to watch them, but I would like to see videos like this one that would appeal to younger people who are used to short-form videos that have illustrative cut scenes to maintain interest. Finally, your host does a very good job maintaining interest. I am going to watch the rest of the videos in this series.
And who carried the brain eating Amoeba?
Oh, yes the believers in this story
Very interesting.. thank you
The Bible does say explicitly a rectangular box. That is what "Ark" is. There is a different word in Hebrew for ship/boat. This word means chest, coffin, or most appropriately, cage. As in a zoo cage, something that holds animals. It didn't have to do anything but float. It does not need to maneuver or move around.
I find it interesting that no country was ever able to build an all wood vessel even close to the size of the Ark. Next to the Ark the HMS Victory would be small. Shipyards with hundreds of experienced workers could never build such a vessel, but Noah did it with less than ten people. It took the introduction of iron framing and hot rivets to build "Ark" sized vessels in the 1800's.
Explain the pyramids then. Somehow it was accomplished
By thousands of people, none of them Jewish.
@@dontdoitdonnell4750 That's the dumbest possible response, until your next one.
It took Noah 150 years to build the ark
@@ji8044 I bet you're one of those people that believe everyone in the biblical era were ignorant and without resources to accomplish tremendous feats. It must have been aliens that built the ark, the pyramids, Rome, Greece, the temples that were built inside the mountains. How sad it is to see how soft the world has become, dumbfounded by the sheer magnitude that can be achieved with dedication and hard labor
Where are the other 8 parts of this series.
We will be releasing one each week. :)
That's some fine apologist work there. Bravo! Very slick. Many people will overlook the presumptions upon which it's all founded.
That first flick / reveal of the cars was cool not gunna lie
I believe that since God told Noah to build the ark he would protect him during the 40 days. No storm would harm him,his family and the animals.
40 days? It protected them for around 360 days, the duration of the flood, not just the duration of the rain.
@@pwalter50 "Noah" had no way to preserve food, all plants were gone, all fish would be dead due to the brackish nature of the seas and rivers so what the heck did they eat for 40-360 days?
@@smb123211 Thanks for your comment and question. My original comment was limited to the recorded story which does not mention the assumptions made in your comment nor does it answer your question. Whilst the story does mention plant life that survived, generally speaking we are both in the same boat (pun intended), we don't know! Like many stories and news items, details are sometimes, even often, omitted.
Flood was around a year
@@BG-kd1ok OK, so how did all the plants and insects and fish survive?
Full video
Where did you get those numbers from?
IDK what is more entertaining. The mythical story itself, or the fact that people really believe every single animal in existence was fit on board. And that they all found their way back to the only continents they exist on.
so basically, unless YOU understand something it can't be true. Your data is all wrong. Do better and more honest research.
The Lions ate the other animals. The birds flew away and transformed into dinosaurs. Facts.
@@randomsam83 another smug morosoph.
It is your decision to see it as a myth and others who have made their decision to believe in the Bible.
Well thought through and presented. Thanks.
We’re we both listening to the same video 🤷♂️
The main trouble with Noah's Ark is that, even if, as AiG claims, the mountains were much smaller than they are today, the sheer speed at which the water would have had to cover the Earth would have caused so much friction that the planet would have been sterilized from the resulting temperatures, including Noah and anything on the ark.
Noah and the rest of his family survived the flood, and we are here today discussing it. The planet was not sterilized.
@@danielsanford4109 Yes. Because the flood story never happened. How do i know this? From the countless other cultures which didn't seem to take much note of the fact they were just wiped out by a great flood.
@@Chrischi3TutorialLPs god did it!, god is not bound by physics, so the water could have been HOLY WATER that simply killed all the animals and all the people, but it did not touch the land at all, that is why there is no evidence of the flood, because god is all powerful. In fact, god is so powerful that once the animals were off the ark, he made them return to the exact same places where he placed false evidence of them evolving. god is so powerful that he created everything to appear to be billions of years old, when it is only 6000 years old. As for your OTHER CULTURES, they did not exist yet, so you have to be wrong about them, the flood happened before any other cultures exist, don't you know the story of Babble is only two chapters away? god is so powerful that he can do anything and that includes erasing all evidence that he/she/it exists. All those other cultures SUPER EVOLVED just like the animals and people, so god must have sped up time for a while, that is why carbon dating doesn't mean anything either, all that stuff under 5,000 years old happened, but it happened in the last 3200 years, and god just made all those people THINK that they had existed through the time of the flood and before, and then god made all the evidence seem to be older than it is, god can do anything, except actually eliminate evil by killing everyone on the planet. And since god is all knowing, he KNEW in advance that the killing would not eliminate evil, thus proving that god is evil incarnate. Isn't it just like an evil god to claim to be eliminating evil while simply perpetrating one of the most murderous events in history? All hail Yahweh, the destroyer of the world, all hail Yahweh, the murderer of literally millions of people including pregnant women, children days old, children weeks old, children months old, children years old, young children, older children, young women just getting married, young men building their first homes, old people who had never done anyone any harm at all, murdered by a self centered, incompetent, childish, evil god. All hail the creator of everything, whose sons had sex with human women to produce giants. All hail Jesus the father of Giants, one of the sons of god!
@@Chrischi3TutorialLPs There are all kinds of world flood stories out there for heaven's sake.
@@luciparadise6781 So? There are also all kinds of alien abduction stories out there. Does that make aliens real?
There are all kinds of stories about father gods slaying a giant monster and creating the world from it out there. Does that make Marduk real?
There are all kinds of stories about people gaining the ability to create gold out there. Does that make the Philosopher's Stone real?
Also, even if the correct answer to any of these was yes, which it is not, but even if it was, what makes you so confident that your particular version of that story is the correct one? At best, the fact that many cultures have stories about global floods gets you to the conclusion that there was, in fact, a global flood.
But how do you know that it's not the Deucalion which got it right? How do you know it's not the manvantara-sandhya from India? Indeed, how do you know if any one of them is 'the' correct story. How do you rule out, for instance, that they all originated from the same event and each deviated in different ways?
Perfectly balanced is key. It needs the balance.
The wild part about the ark is a story so many thousands yrs older. The dimensions are with in square feet of each other.
There were 8 patri- arks who emb - arked in the ark- aich ark- etype. designed by an ark- itect.
Too punny...
Love this…..❤️🙏🏼
When talking about the flood and arc, I always wonder. How much food was on board? Where was it stored? How did Noah know how much to take, how to keep it all edible. Long distance sailing was not a thing back then, that I know of, so no experience from sailors to help out.
Every single explanation for the Ark relies on magic. Examine all of their claims and they all resort to magic.
The Ark didn't need to sail it just needed to float on the rising water. If anything it would have drifted on the surface. It had drouge stones that hung from the sides to keep it stabilized, upright no sails, no motor. God himself was driving it to it's resting place.
@@billporter846 Okaaay ... I give up ... "drouge"? I don't recall any mention of such in the indoctrination classes when I was a kid. Or since.
@@billporter846 so magic. And yecs wonder why they get laughed at.
Noah got detailed instructions from God Almighty about those things. It doesn't phase me at all about the how & why of his knowledge. ( I would have failed ! being resistant to following the directions of others. ) Even more fantastic is how Moses wrote all that stuff about the very beginning of creation - without being there as an "eye witness". Same thing : He Who Is the I Am , gave Moses the knowledge.
The dimensions of the ark was the same dimensions used in the first tabernacle of the days of Melchizedek. I have completed several studies and this seems to be replicated after the tabernacle in the garden of Eden. You must know and understand Hebrew to get to the bottom of this question...
If a global flood occurred, why is it there is a tree colony existent today that is older than the flood? BTW, was it sea water or fresh water that flooded the Earth?
Well, if you take the time to read the Bible you would have known that answer already. God caused the heavens to open and rain for 40 days and nights. So initially it would have been fresh water, but once the water from the land merged with the oceans and seas it would have become salt water.
@@stephenhagen234 Lol. I have read the Bible. That's what made me an atheist. So, explain this ... how is it possible for a tree submerged under salt water to survive? And if the land was covered in salt water, i.e., poisoned by salt, how was it possible for anything to grow back?
@@johnl4933 "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God". (Mark 10:27 NASB 1977). You forget or ignore the reality that God is able to change the laws of physics and nature anytime He desires to suite His purposes, since He created them in the first place.
@@stephenhagen234 So, your belief in your god has convinced you that he killed every living thing on Earth except one group of trees? And, just where is the evidence for your god? Please don't say the Bible says so. Do you believe everything written down in a book? The Bible says it was written by your god, prove that it was. It should be really easy, right?
@@johnl4933 Tomorrow, look outside your window, toward the east, at sunrise. You will see your "proof". Or do you think men "thought up" and created the human race and the earth and put the earth on a tilted axis and set it in orbit around the sun. Because God has spoken a personal word to me thru His written word via His Holy Spirit, that is confirmation that is undeniable, regardless of what anybody else believes.
Ships and boats have their shape because they are expected to be propelled through the water. The Ark, and the basket, were not designed to do anything other than float. A rounded or point bow and/or stern would serve no motive function. On the other hand, it might simplify construction better than trying to waterproof 4 corners.
I was on the USS Detroit AOE 4 when I served in the Navy. my ship was about the same size as the Ark it was a very big supply ship! it was 796' long and the beam was 107'
But it’s a sealed hull.
They only had wood to use, back then. which has joins.
It doesn’t matter how much you try to seal the hull, the wood twists.
The largest wooden boat was the “Wyoming”
They tried to seal the hull & even put a pump on board. It still sank.
Read about it?
Now imagine that ship with thousands of animals on it that you had to feed and haul out the shit for, with only a crew of seven.
@@peterc3143 No, but so what? The Bible said the ark was made with a specific kind of wood and was sealed with pitch.
@@miehoen6212
What was that wood?
Not only is it accurate to scripture, but it also reflects the design described in ether in the Book of Mormon.
Lol book of Morman invented by a 19th centuary scammer
How the hell some one coud build an ark such as that without tools
More likely Noah built a raft to put his goats on when the river overflowed it’s banks.
Why would you suppose there were no tools?
@@KM-te6wu , This was the Bronze Age. Google it to see what tools they had then. I don’t think you’ll see any chain saws, power drills, saw mills or generators.
Read the book of Genesis, metal tools were invented generations before Noah was born. You either go with God's view of History or man's faulty, limited View. What we are being taught in school it's false atheist history.
Who said Noah didn't have tools?
Look...
Noah's Ark is still on Mount Ararat at about 13,000 feet!!!
But it is in a Glacier.
Which it has been since about 1944.
But Previously, For about 100 Years it was mostly open and uncovered from any glacier, from 1850 - 1944.
After WW1, Military Aircraft photographed Noah's Ark on the mountain ledge.
So... Let me see... For a 100 Years there was No Glacier on Mount Ararat... Hmmm...
And Now there is... Hmmm... So it is Colder Now than it was for 100 years... Hmmm...
So Much For Global Warming...
The real mystery is how did he build a refrigeration unit to keep the arctic animals happy on the journey
Because God. There's no way Noah came to New Zealand and collected animals found only here, not to mention artic/antarctic. It's a stupid story that Christians try to rationalize. Also, why was God a dick to all the animals and murdered them? And all the other humans. We're his mistake and somehow it's our fault? There might be a God, but the bible isn't His word. Men wrote it.
Rumour has it he bought it at the local Walmart which was all but destroyed it the flood and took nearly 5000 years to recover.😂
@@truthgiver8286 I thought it was K-Mart. Maybe I am wrong. 🤔
It would've been pretty cool when they were floating around higher than mt. Everest. Of course then the tropical/desert/grassland critters would've frozen. But you know....God magic!
I gave a big deacrip on the last one but I forgot to say that the ark was constructed to tumble and had to be water right all sides bc of this fact so it told me that the boat was flipping top to bottom n so forth so maybe it was built to flip over
People who aren't Christians would doubt and debate how Noah and his three sons along with their wives build such a huge ark and how the animals from all over the world reached the middle east, here i say praise the lord thy God for his words are true and his deeds are real , God can do anything that's why don't question how Noah did what he did , it's because God can do anything . Amen

@@gwreevesReeves well yes - but that was in the medieval times, where you had to explain the unexplainable with Myths - mostly religious - we still do it today, unfortunately with conspiracies - I prefer religious myths.
@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 there are conspiracies, maybe you meant “conspiracy theories”? This is interesting though. Most conspiracy theories are made up from some facts. Their theory may be bogus or close and some conspiracy theories are made up of lies or plain ignorance. Kinda like the conspiracy theory that Covid came from a bat from a wet market. You know it remind me of another theory, the theory of evolution. Yeah I think calling some conspiracy theories, myths is quite fitting.
Gilgamesh's ship was round, like the basket described in the vid.
How many cubic cubits of space do you need to accommodate two of every species of animal and stay afloat?
you would actually need atleast 50 of every animals to not have genetic disfunctions in all the animals
Kinds, not species…
Don't forget it was 2 of every CLEAN kind and 7 of every UNCLEAN kind.
One of the things to consider when talking about the "animals" on the ark is evolution since the time of the flood. It's entirely conceivable that two "dogs" (or even just two animals of the canine variety) were on the ark, and every breed since them has derived from those two. Recent DNA studies show that all canines possess similar traits, despite being different breeds. In fact, man himself has cross-bred breeds to create new ones. We need to get out of the mentality that there were two labradors, two poodles, and so on.
The grey wolf is the predecessor to all modern dogs. It’s just that it took forty thousand years or more
No one thinks that. All dogs are in the same species so they can interbreed. The number of species required to represent the current extant species would not fit on a boat. Not to mention the food, water, and environmental factors required would be a logistical impossibility.
What of all the insects? How did both fresh water and salt water animals survive? What of the vegetation?
It’s mythology.
God comanded Noah to put two of each animal of his lands on the Ark, not two of each animal that exists in the world. He only needed enough space and food for the domesticated animals that he kept on his estate plus for his family of eight (him, his wife, his three sons and their wives).
@@StarlasAiko So you do not think it was a world wide flood?
@@chiararomano1818 Correct. It was the flooding of the mediterranina basin. For stone/bronze age people, who's entire world is no larger than two weeks travel on foot, it sure did seem like the entire world flooded.

2- Di How did Noah and family survive w/o WI-Fi?
Magic and incest.
They stored food on the ark, they were only on there for a little over a year. Not a problem.

9:39 Where did all the water go? I'm guessing it's all on the frozen places of the earth like South pole, Siberia, North Pole
Look at how the moon pulls water in a way that effects our Tides. The great flood, could have been done the same way. So while the flood covered the world, it didn't have to cover the whole world all at once. And then when the flood was over... that tidal pull could have been abated.
@@MadOgre Are you saying that the moon pulled the oceans around for an entire year?? That's just about as ridiculous as the flood story! If you want to believe this nonsense, you should probably read the bible where it says that the entire earth was covered.

The Ark story is a re-telling of a much older, and documented, tale called 'The Epic of Gilgamesh'.
@Darwins Myth So the epic of Gilgamesh was written in the 4th century?
The Noah story was written in the 6th century while the Judahites were in Babylon
@Darwins Myth No, Gilgamesh is vastly older.
Noah ark was build Australia, by Noah. I used Australia hard wood, such as iron bark and yellow wood as these two are the oldest trees in the world, the density of the cell structure would enough strength to endure the cold Antarctic waters, and Noah end up in north Canada. Which eventually start the great migration of the Northern America.

That's the thing, we know for a fact that biblical flood dint happen, this is seriously not a debatable at this point.

Could a wooden boat as big as Noah's Ark float even with modern waterproofing techniques used today?
I guess you would have to ask a shipbuilder about that, But it doesn't really matter as the Ark was not made from wood planks.
The Hebrew word translated “ark” is tevah (teivah) which means “basket”, the hebrew word kuphar can mean a plant or reed. The ark was not made from wood planks, it was
made from reeds! Up til the 1970’s a round reed boat called a kuphar was widely used in the Middle East for transporting people and goods because it very stable in the water.
Noah's Ark was not long and narrow, but round, circular. The same words translated as length and breadth can be used for the width of a circle and the circumference of a circle.
The idea that it was long and narrow comes from the fact that it’s the way boats were made in Europe at the time Scripture was translated. People understood according to western culture rather than Middle Eastern Hebraic culture.
The problem with saying the ark was a circle and the measurements given are the width and circumference is the numbers don't add up. A circular vessel with a width (diameter) of 50 cubits would have a circumference of roughly 157 cubits, far short of what the Bible states. If the word translated as width actually meant radius that would get us very close to a circumference of 300. I do believe it wasn't shaped like a box and could have been circular or more of an oval. If 300 cubits were the circumference it would have been a vessel with roughly 7162 square cubits. If it were a perfect oval where 300 cubits and 50 cubits were the length and width it would have had roughly 11,781 square cubits. Using the same word as used for a reed basket doesn't really clarify whether the ark was a circle or something else since baskets can be made in different shapes with different dimensions but at the very least it could certainly give us a better idea of the overall construction of the ark. One question I have is if the measurement of 50 cubits was the radius of a circular vessel, why would the circumference also need to be given? That measurement wouldn't have been necessary since there would be no other possible circumference. With something more like an oval both length and width would have been necessary. I guess if we really want to know exactly how the ark was designed we'll have to ask Noah when we see him.
I find this hard to believe everyone knows you shouldn't put all your eggs into one basket
@@Xterraforce If we finally went to Turkey and found that Noah's ark, or a very large structure, with animal DNA was indeed up there, as an atheist, what would you think?
If they find a wooden structure in Turkey with animal DNA, they will be able to find the port side and the starboard side. They will find the stern but the bow will have sheared away leaving the bulkhead. I’m sure when they dig down to find the bottom of the ark it will have completely rotted away, leaving no trace whatsoever and leaving a box like structure that is a lot smaller than the bible states.
The DNA will show that the animals on the ark consisted of cows, goats, chicken and possibly dogs.
The remains of the ark will be found on a Turkish farm and will probably still be in use!
@@vilkoskorlich259 Hmmm ... very large structure, with animal DNA? Well, it could be a barn.😆
The holy scriptures tell us exactly what the ark was made of: Of what this huge ark was to be built was made plain by Jehovah: “Make for yourself an ark out of wood of a resinous tree [literally, trees of gopher].” (Ge 6:14)
Design and Size. The ark (Heb., te·vahʹ; Gr., ki·bo·tosʹ) was a rectangular chestlike vessel presumably having square corners and a flat bottom. It needed no rounded bottom or sharp bow to cut rapidly through the water; it required no steering; its only functions were to be watertight and to stay afloat. A vessel so shaped is very stable, cannot be easily capsized, and contains about one third more storage space than ships of conventional design. There was a door provided in the side of the ark for loading and unloading the cargo.
Part 1 never said how many animals were on the ark, except pairs. The speaker at the start does mention possible shapes of the ark which is fortunately. But saying the ark was as long and wide as a football field doesn't convince me that it could hold all the land animals, unless a pair of cows represents a huge amount of types. Like a small house cat also representing all cats (tigers, lions, etc.) A very small worm representing all snakes. But thinking only about large animals misses the point, as there are thousands of insects and other animal types. And the food for all these animals. But if we are going to allow a miracle to be used as part of collecting all the animals, then why can't we also credit miracles with all other problems and questions with trying to fit this account into a very narrow reading of Genesis? Isn't that missing the whole meaning of the story, of trusting God in difficult settings and that God can supply, whether that's for 100 animal pairs or 10,000? Why get caught up in arguing about details that aren't the point of the story.
All of your questions you've mentioned are answered throughout the series.

We're supposed to ignore many ridiculous things about this story, or else you're doubting 'the word of god'. But how do we know it's the word of god? Because it says so in the bible. It's all stupid.
In size the ark was 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. Conservatively calculating the cubit as 44.5 cm (17.5 in.) (some think the ancient cubit was nearer 56 or 61 cm), the ark measured 133.5 m by 22.3 m by 13.4 m (437 ft 6 in. × 72 ft 11 in. × 43 ft 9 in.), less than half the length of the ocean liner Queen Elizabeth 2. This proportion of length to width (6 to 1) is used by modern naval architects. This gave the ark approximately 40,000 cu m (1,400,000 cu ft) in gross volume. No known cargo vessel of ancient times even slightly resembled the ark in its colossal size. Internally strengthened by adding two floors, the three decks thus provided gave a total of about 8,900 sq m (96,000 sq ft) of space.
@@danielsanford4109 And it still wouldn't float even empty. lol.

If you did the same thing with Christianity, it'd be gone forever and would never come back. And I can prove that.
@@ctakitimu Then Why is it that many Bibles have been destroyed, burned, etc. And yet, it has yet to be wiped off the planet? Why is it that the Bible works in harmony with science BEFORE science “Discovered” the reality of such truths such as the Earth being Round & Hanging upon Nothing, and the Water Cycle? When it was written during the times when the whole world believed the Earth was “Flat.” Without these eye witness accounts in our modern day confirming what they had seen and touched. Why question, anything if you’re this skeptical? Question the science too. Where is the missing link to show the “evolution of humans?”
biblical Hebrew uses an Egyptian loanword tebah, meaning a "basket" or a "box."
Funny how the Chinese civilization lived through the flood without noticing it.
And the Australian Aboriginal people.
There was no Chinese civilization at the time of the Flood…
The best disproof of Noah’s ark is the Ark Encounter which took hundreds of guys and massive machinery, using premade lumber… and took Years to make something that did NOT float.

@Tired Of Liars God does not require blind faith. The bible says that only a fool believes everything he is told. Heb 11:1 says faith is the EVIDENT demonstration of UNSEEN realities. Only brainwashed people believe in things without logical reasoning and evidence. Rom 1:20,21 says God's invisible qualities are "SEEN" or perceived by the things HE has MADE. Pure logic and scientific reasoning irrefutably lead to the existence of an intelligent Designer and Creator. The Bible encourages Faith based on knowledge and reason NOT credulity. It's fine to believe....but WHY do you believe. The truth does not fear investigation. God has given overwhelming proof of His existence. The problem is the pride and arrogance of humans who don't want to admit the truth because it makes them accountable to their Creator and as Jesus said..."men have loved the darkness rather than the light." Truth is NOT determined by the number of people it convinces. ALL humans will have to render an account for themselves before God eventually. EVERY knee will bend...as it should because HE is worthy..Rev 4:11..
What I have seen left out in many descriptions of the Ark is that God would have protected it to ensure its survival.
interesting
Weight stones were used and tied onto the bow of the ARK. This is known because many large weight stones are found in the area the ARK had landed and they have no other reason to be so far away from water.
Edit: Not wanting to take away from the design proposed in this video. Ultimately, we just don't know, though the weight stones are known and make sense. With that, I believe it is possible to have had both, for the wind to help the ARK keep true and the stones to help as well
You are saying its a given its known where the Ark's landing area is. There seem to be lots of good research, but no agreement to date.
@@shopshop144 Oh but there is a ton of information! They have done bore holes for sampling and pulled out wood, dung, fur, even rivets, etc. Even the local governments in the area recognize the location, the dimension fit prefect and so on. They have done ground penetrating radar work showing it was a ship, they even have local tradition and the location matches what is written in Josephus. Yeah, we know where it is and it has always been there. Pieces have been taken it from it over the years, it slid down further than its landing location, and of course the secular world does not want to acknowledge the truth because they do not want to be accountable towards God. For them to admit the truth would further prove the bible is true and accurate.
@@27Zangle I don't understand why the idea of finding the ark is so important to so many. It might have a good effect on a few people, but the secular world is not going to be argued into belief.

@@shopshop144 Sure, I get what you are saying and I feel the same way. With that said, I think it needs to be looked at as a tool that can be used to help some people connect the present with the past and with truth. I've been able to use biblical history paired with biblical archeology AND even science (I have a science degree), to actually help people make connection and help them focus on the truth. Everyone learns differently and sometimes people need to see something or know that it is real to understand, I am not one of those, but have used this type of information to help break the ice or have some engaging conversations with people.
I think we need to refocus the importance of these discoveries, some of these must have been preserved for a reason or hidden for a time to only be revealed now for a reason. Maybe it is not for your faith, but it can be used as a tool by you to help others.
@@27Zangle, Rivets alone should tell you this is no ancient boat.
Why cant no one answer this. How would anyone survive on the Ark after the water was gone since it would be like landing on the moon or mars. Last Video they stressed how well the world was destroyed with multiple volcanoes, tidy waves , earth quakes etc. The devastation they explained would destroy all the rivers, trees, grass, food sources etc: it would take a long time for a new eco system to form. So it dont matter if god made a boat that worked and all the animals survived. Am I missing a 2nd creation story here ??????
We can answer this- If you look at the Bible's history it says that the Ark landed on the 5th month and they did not exit until the 12th. A full 7 months of plant regrowth etc. They did not exit onto a barren mudball etc.
@@calvinsmith7575 agree. just like the plants created on day 3, and adam on day 6. God prepared the food , water, things that mankind needed
@@calvinsmith7575 better go back and watch last video at the end. They proclaim new mountain ranges and all the oceans of the world (current world) were created. Bible just says they landed on a mountain and waited for the water to recede. So a few questions have to arise.... one I think your making assumptions. theres no talk of god pulling off another miracle or creation. So why god create everything in 24 hours in genesis but now needs 7 months (under a year) to re create the whole eco system. What of the snow cap mountains, rivers being formed, tropic zones, grassland etc, the four seasons, salt and fresh water. Your shrugging off the creation of ECO system as nothing. Why would they give location of garden of eden if pre flood world destroyed.
@@Jenny-tk7ir read my comment I gave to Calvin. Your also going off a assumption. Bible just states they were waiting on the water to recede, no mention of another creation. You can google how long it takes stuff to die from just flooding alone (under 6 months) but for barren lands to regenerate would take years for full grown trees, salt water life forms vs fresh water. Why 7 month creation vs one day, ???
@@calvinsmith7575 Just noticed your creator or giver of this content, thank you for the video and having comments section open
last video at 16:00 mark, you explained how 3 days of rain can be bad, but we had 150 days. And when the fountains of the deep opened, it was continental shift, earth quakes, everything destroyed nothing survived
From the bible
After 150 days, "God remembered Noah ... and the waters subsided" until the Ark rested on the mountains of Ararat, and on the 27th day of the second month of Noah's six hundred and first year the earth was dry.
someone elses math said it was one year, 2 months and 27 days till god stopped the flooding,,,,, and as a side note, if I took the passage literal with "the earth was dry" does it mean all the earth, some of the earth, or do I get to make assumptions ?//
so you stated within 7 months noah and the animals could settle back on earth again.
floods in 2012 in Nigeria it is still affecting them today, over 3 million people displaced, they still can not farm the land . Most seeds to agriculture is dead if left under water for one week. Look into land reclaimed from the sea with Holland and how long it takes them to make the land fetile (27% of land in Holland from the sea) Im just talking farmland, not forest, jungles, deserts , snow capped mountains, salt and fresh water etc. Plus how come YEC or global flood believers try to use science to prove a point but invoke a miracle from God when they don't have a science answer. So young earth creationist (YEC) believe in a 6 day creation of whole universe and earth, yet a 7 month creation story not as good as stuffing every animal in the world on a big boat ???????/

@@calvinsmith7575 where thou?
If the Ark had been shaped like the picture, it would have capsized, and sunk. Just build it according Genesis 6:15-16. It only needed to float.
I thought the word Ark literally translates to box. Like the Ark of the Covenant is a box. I think that's why many people believe the ark was rectangular-shaped.
No, it roughly translates to “to hold or contain” or “enclosed”. Meaning, nothing about particular shape or look.
Um. Didn’t you listen and hear him say the only other place that word was used in the Bible. The basket that Moses was laid in….
@@ETsBees Soooooo, that means the Ark of the Covenant was never really mentioned? Now THAT I can believe!

Oh, yeah, 233 occurrences of the word 'Ark' in the Bible 1. Gen 6:14-Josh 6:12 2. Josh 6:13-1 Chron 22:19 3. 1 Chron 26:8-Rev 11:19 ... ... ... So, that again proves this channel, and the religion that backs it as liars.
@@tiredofliars No that does not mean the ark of the covenant was never mentioned. If you don’t want to rewatch I can try to help you out. The word ark for Noah’s are is the same word that was translated for the basket that Moses was placed in. The word ark also appears else where in the Bible but is translated from another word. Here are the words, so for the one for Noahs’ ark and Moses’ basket it is tēḇâ. This seems to be a floating vessel. The other word as for the ark of the covenant is 'ārôn this word is also translated as chest 6 times and coffin 1 time the rest are translated ark.
Now a lesson to be learned is not to use strong accusations but rather ask questions. Questions can very strong and they will keep you from getting yourself trapped and showing your ignorance. At least I hope it was ignorance because the alternative would be very disappointing. I hope this helps you understand and you have a great evening.
@@ETsBees Questions I have!!! If heaven is a spiritual place, then why is everything there the best of the MATERIAL WORLD? Why did god flood the earth to eliminate evil when he had to have KNOWN, being all knowing, that it would fail? To me that makes him seem pretty evil. Why didn't god just kill the evil people and leave the rest of the world alone? Was he not ABLE to address just the evil? Why did god have Adam and Eve running around in the garden of Eden naked, in his likeness? Sounds like real time porn to me! Was god also naked when he was walking in the garden with Adam? If eating of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil is what exposed Adam and Eve to the knowledge that they were naked, was it because they realized that god had lied to them about dying, and so judged much of everything else he had said as lies too? Did they then realize that god was a pervert and so they needed to cover their nakedness so that god would no longer get pleasure from seeing them naked in his garden? I suppose if you had created some creatures to get sexual pleasure from and they decided that they were going to cover themselves instead, it would make a pervert angry. How is it that the children of Israel were actually in the presence of the all mighty himself, yet it only took a few days for them to find another god? How does that make any sense? You have not seen your god and you believe, and they saw your god and did not believe, how can that possibly make any sense at all? Papyrus has been PROVEN to have been invented before the Hebrews even formed their first TRIBE. How is it then, that when they left Egypt, taking all the BEST of what the Egyptians owned, they failed to take a single sheet of papyrus to write anything on? There are a lot more questions, but I already know your answers, GOD DID IT! Or, I don't BELIEVE any of REALITY, I only believe what I have been taught is what GOD wants me to believe.
HERE Is a challenge for you and your god. I am sure you BELIEVE you are guided by the Holy Spirit, literally a portion of god itself telling you in your heart exactly what you need to know to BELIEVE in all that you spout. You pray and ask that holy spirit of yours what words would convince me this moment, from your next response exactly what is needed to convert me. Your god is all knowing and all powerful, and so far in my life, he has failed to manifest himself to me, so I am an unbeliever because so far that is what he wants me to be, that is also written in your bible. So, if you are guided by the Holy Spirit of God himself, your next response to me will be the only words that will convert me to belief in your god. If you are unable to provide those words, then your god is just as real as Zeus, Odin, Asherah and all of the other mythical gods throughout history.

@@timm7142 It's possible that Polar Bears themselves weren't directly on the ark but adapted/speciated from a common ancestor pair of bears on the ark. Grizzly Bears, Black Bears, Panda Bears, and Polar Bears all belong to the bear kind, and God only needed to bring two of each kind of animal on the ark, not two of each species. Same goes with cats, dogs, elephants, and so on. And when you understand the concept of exponential population growth, it's not hard to see just a pair of animals multiply into a large population in just a short period of time.
All we truly know from the Bible is that it was a very large rectangle box with no rounded edges. It didn’t need to have a rounded bottom or sharp bow as if it needed to cut through the water. It didn’t need to steer. All it had to do is be watertight and float. That’s it. The Ark measured approximately 437 ft 6 in. × 72 ft 11 in. × 43 ft 9 in. The same proportion used by modern Naval architects today. The three decks gave it rigid strength and more space for the animals and storage. 1.4 Million Square Feet actually. The wood that they were instructed to use was to be of a resinous tree, more than likely Cypress. Just a few more details…
Did it truly even need to be watertight? I mean god himself was keeping everything safe, fed, watered, clean air etc. so, why do you even need to justify it's size, shape, buoyancy or any other REAL feature? God did it! That is all that matters right? The animals that god saved are the ones that we know today, right? So, the ark was large enough, because god made it so! The animals all came of their own volition, again, god, god guided it, and kept everything inside alive while killing everything else in the world in order to eliminate the EVIL that had come into the world, but being all knowing, he knew that wouldn't work, so he must be one hell of an ass hole because just a few pages later, the Tower of Babble happens, and if trying to reach god using a twenty story tower isn't evil, apparently I don't know what is!

A wooden boat the size of the ark would quickly fall apart in the rough sea.
God is in control of the size of the waves and the strength of the timbers used to build the ark. You are thinking in the natural realm. This was supernatural.
Prove evidence that he did @@stephenhagen234
According to the Bible, Noah took two of each animal on the ark, along with seven of each clean animal. While there are many land-dwelling, air-breathing animal species, there are only about 1,398 (the true number could even be a thousand or so) such kinds, including extinct ones. This means Noah only needed to bring around 6,744 animals onto the ark. Our researchers estimate a maximum of around 7,000 animals were on board the Ark.
7 pairs of each 'kind' of clean animal AND each kind of bird. And since "kind" is one of those words that seem to change meaning when creationists need it to you really can't say what you have. Kind would actually be more like SPECIES not FAMILY especially since creationists also don't believe in "macro evolution" which would be necessary on a massively accelerated scale if what you claim is true. In any case, it really doesn't matter that much because the Ark couldn't have carried enough food and water for a full year AND the earth would be totally sterile and empty when they finally left the ark at 1 year and either 10 or 17 days, depending on whether you accept Gen 7: 1-10 (7 days BEFORE the flood began) or Gen 7: 11-16 (the VERY DAY the flood began) as the day they boarded the ark. In point of fact the only way creationists can make this happen is to make the bible say things it really doesn't AND to make up "science", science that cannot be supported with evidence.
Oh yeah, BTW the Bible also says they brought all animals that had the breath of life in them (lungs), that would include whales, dolphins and porpoises.
Gen 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.
Gen 7:2 Take with you SEVEN PAIRS OF EVERY KIND OF CLEAN ANIMAL, a male and its mate, AND ONE PAIR of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate,
Gen 7:3 and also SEVEN PAIRS OF EVERY KING OF BIRD, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth.
Gen 7:4 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."
Gen 7:5 And Noah did all that the LORD commanded him.
Gen 7:6 Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came on the earth.
Gen 7:7 And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.
Gen 7:8 Pairs of clean and unclean animals, of birds and of all creatures that move along the ground,
Gen 7:9 male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah.
Gen 7:10 AND AFTER THE SEVEN DAYS the floodwaters came on the earth.
Gen 7:11 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.
Gen 7:12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.
Gen 7:13 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.
Gen 7:14 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.
Gen 7:15 Pairs of all creatures THAT HAVE THE BREATH OF LIFE IN THEM came to Noah and entered the ark.
Gen 7:16 The animals going in were male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.
They boarded either 7 days before or the very day of the 17th day of the 2nd month of Noah's 600th year, and they left the ark on (or after) the 27th day of the 2nd month of Noah's 601st year (Gen 8:13-19)
Gen 8:13 By the first day of the first month of Noah's six hundred and first year, the water had dried up from the earth. Noah then removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
Gen 8:14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was completely dry.
Gen 8:15 Then God said to Noah,
Gen 8:16 "Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives.
Gen 8:17 Bring out every kind of living creature that is with you-the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that move along the ground-so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful and increase in number on it."
Gen 8:18 So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives.
Gen 8:19 All the animals and all the creatures that move along the ground and all the birds-everything that moves on the earth-came out of the ark, one kind after another.
@@philleprechaun6240 The food needed to sustain large adult animals would be enormous and would sink the Ark, Phil. I guess that Noah might have used his actual brain and figured out that it would be better to collect infant creatures, whose sustenance would be compatible with the limited storage facilities available. Do you think that Noah might have actually used his brain to think about that problem, Phil?

@@philleprechaun6240 The Bible uses the word “kind,” which is much broader in meaning than the word “species” as used by scientists. Often, what scientists choose to call the evolution of a new species is simply a matter of variation within a kind, as the word is used in the Genesis account1. According to Genesis 1, God made each type of creature “according to its kind.” Within their DNA, God placed the potential for tremendous variety, including new species. But every species belongs to its original kind-cats are still cats, and dogs are dogs2.
so how did noah turn his bow into that 98-foot wave that was going to broadside his ark
He said it COULD handle a 98 foot wave, nobody said there were any waves. The Bible doesn’t mention it and for all we know it was relatively calm even with a slight wind

I read the comments before I watched the video, the world is full of strange people who still believe in the books from the old testament. Well, having now watched the video I am still a disbeliever in the ark as a viable "boat" to hold all the animals and Noah's family.
Nope,this didn’t change my mind.....
Which strawman version do you ascribe to?
Most critics have tons of strawmen in their head, so they don’t “need” to change their mind.
Thank you sir,very informative.
I cant help but observe that man narrating the video looks like he is made by
Disney Animatronics. Is anyone else seeing that?
I just skimmed through the comments, interesting, the video seems to have been well done. However, much speculation, and many questions left unanswered. I’m curious, there was no mention of the Mayan story of the great flood nor the Babylonian story. The Anasazi also told of a great flood. So if all these cultures had a similar story where is the connection? More than one “Moses”? Same story told by different people?
One has to wonder, if AIG actually believes the Flood and Noah's Ark story, why did they build their taxpayer funded boondoggle Ark as a museum instead of a floating zoo, and why did they build their zoo separate from their Ark on land that was more than 2 acres (the actual maximum usable surface area inside the Ark given the biblical dimensions), and why don't they staff their zoo with only 8 full time people? What is it I heard? Some 40 or more zoo personnel to do the job they insist only 8 people did with early bronze age tools and methods. Why did they not build their ark, fill it full of animals, with all the required food and water, and ONLY 8 humans, 4 male and 4 female, seal it up for a year and 17 days and then after all that time finally open it up for the whole world to see just how well it worked? 8 people feeding, watering and cleaning up after all those animals, day in and day out, for 382 days with only one one cubit opening in the ark near the ceiling. THAT might have went a long way to showing that their favored fable had some chance of being true. But instead they made up a showy, flashy boondoggle, some kind of slight of hand, shuck n jive presentation to awe and mystify, and pull the wool over the eyes of their gullible followers. There are reasons AIG didn't make the ark encounter to actually be like the bible boat they claim it represents, because they KNOW that it couldn't work.
Mic drop!! Perfect put! 👍
Unfortunately there exists a very simple, unfalsifiable cop out answer to your question. When I was little, I asked my parents why the lions wouldn’t just eat the gazelle while in line for the ark. My mom simply said “God was in control”. This became the core foundation for every other question I had going forward. How were they able to store all the food? God helped. How did all the animals migrate to where they live now and adapted so quickly? God helped. It really is something you can’t refute. At the end of the day, judging by God’s current involvement in humanity, Noah’s ark story has way too many extraordinary details that must be patched with a “God did it” bandaid in order to be reconciled with reality. I personally don’t have that much faith, but I guess to each their own 🤷🏻♂️
Because locking eight humans up like that would be considered cruel and unusual punishment, and would likely lead to more than one death during that year.
You have only proven, one thing. Satan has the wool , pulled over your eyes. I suppose, they could have asked, for your advice , but in their wisdom, they decided not to.
@@saved217 Prove Satan exists. Then we can decide later if any wool was pulled over anyone's eyes. 🤔
One hypothetical hull concept was like a quart milk carton with pointed ends that lay on a flat side. The entry bay in an upright side was closed by a large door that served as a ramp when opened for loading of animals and supplies for the duration. As the flood waters rose, the hull floated to its upright position, ballasted to cause one corner of the box-like cross section to become the keel (rotating 45deg from its land based position). This rotated position would thus become very strong against broadside wave action and likely result in most of the vessel being below the water. When the flood waters receded, the ballasted box would have righted itself, allowing the door to open and become the exit ramp.
And how do you know all this since you haven't seen the real ark if there was one.
@@benjaminavick6455 He starts out by saying "one hypothetical hull concept". Why would he say hypothetical if he had seen it?
The ark was nothing more then a very large shoe box in shape.
@@ronhansen8471 You don't know. So making a proclamation of fact makes you appear to be breathlessly ignorant.
@@Digitalsapien Is God's word ignorant? (Genesis 6:14-16) Make for yourself an ark from resinous wood. You will make compartments in the ark and cover it with tar inside and outside. This is how you will make it: The ark should be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. You will make a window for light for the ark, one cubit from the top. You should put the entrance of the ark in its side and make it with a lower deck, a second deck, and a third deck" The ark was 437 ft 6 in long. × 72 ft 11 in wide. × 43 ft 9 in high with 96,000 sq ft of floor space. The ark was a rectangular chest like vessel having square corners a flat bottom and possibly a gable roof. All the ark was designed to do is float with its cargo.
It would be interesting to know where on the ark the two blue whales went. They're pretty big, and they need a lot of food. They eat around 4 tonnes of krill every day, so if they were on the ark, they would have needed 8 tonnes of krill per day, The ark was afloat for about 7 months, so that's 210 days, times 8 tonnes per day, so that would require 1680 tonnes of krill . I"m going to say after putting the two blue whales, and they food, on board, there wouldn't have been a lot of room left for anything else. Yet there was still sperm whales, orcas, humpback whales, in fact quite a few whales, most of which are pretty big. Now, I already know what you're going to say, "The whales could have just stayed in the water". Well, as one Christian pointed out to me when I raised that point, all things that live in the water have their own needs. Specifically salt levels for salt water fish, and no salt for freshwater fish. On the other hand, if they did just stay in the water, please tell me why they weren't killed along with everything else? Did God have some special affection for fish and other marine creatures? If so, why? Was it only land animals that were sinful, and deserved killing? By the way, the ark was only about 1/4 the volume of the Titanic, which despite the name, wasn't an especially large vessel. trying to fit the several million land species, and their food, on the ark would have been a bit difficult, even if the whales were left out.
Seriously? Are you just a troll? : ) God said to bring 2 of every 7 of some of the air breathing land animals and you are asking about sea creatures? : ) Many died in the flood (hence their fossils) while many survived (hence them being here today). It's just not that hard...
@@calvinsmith7575 I'll point out that whales are air breating animals. And, as I say, when I asked elsewhere why the fish weren't killed off, a professing Christian told me they were because fish, and water living creatures, require specific types of water, so when all the water was mixed together during the flood, the fish would have died as well. I take it you don't agree with that Christian's assessment. If you believe the fish weren't affected by the flood, I would ask why fish were left out of this catastrophe? And in fact why were animals included in the catastrophe? After all, there would have been billions of individual animals, none of which had anything to do with the sins of humans, so what was god's problem with them?
So when was Noahs Ark supposedly built?
you don't know? 😁😁
It was built about 4400 years ago.
About 6 years ago in Kentucky.
@@mmaimmortals But the flood was 12,000 years ago.
@@maxcassidy4527 Tell me.
I wonder how many people notice that it wasn’t until AFTER the flood that God told Noah the animals were now also food for him. Maybe I’m expanding the idea by I think the animals also didn’t prey on each other until after the ark. This would have made housing them on the ark much easier since they wouldn’t need to be separated and food would also be much less complicated. A simple open deck space would have worked.

No idea what cause and effect has anything to do here and how it's even relevant. And isint your god supposedly uncaused cause which literally violates cause and effect?
People don't reject god, people reject empty assertion that god is real due to lack of evidence. There is a reason why majority of scientists are atheists, why majority of theistic scientists will not even claim that science proves god, that majority of philosophers (people who actually understands cause and effect part) are atheists and so on. You being brainwashed and repeating something your preacher said to you will not prove anything besides exposing your own personal ignorance here.

Forgot to mention that a wooden ship of this size flexes in the waves creating leaks and would have required enormous pumping capacity to remain afloat, but wait bilge pumps didn't exist until 3BC so buckets it is, even if they did they didn't have the crew large enough to manage the volumes of water that would have needed to be moved . Reality the ship would have sunk in the first few days unless they trained the gorillas to haul water
Not everything can be scientifically proven. Unless the "Scientists" have to always be right! So they make things up that they "prove" to be the right way of thinking. Lol. The problem is that God knows our limitations. He wants us to have faith. Didn't I hear that Noah used a paste like substance to seal the ship? See what I mean? Relax.
The paste as you put it would not have been able to cope with the flexing. There is a reason we don't build wooden boats that big
God provided the blueprints and schematics Straight from Heaven. There's probably a method of wooden boat building that we do not know about back then. That's in there was also Supernatural protection to factor in.

How could 40 days of rainfall cover the highest mountains? Where would all that water come from since liquid water is 1,000 times more dense than water vapour? Biblical exegetes now know that the flood story is an adaptation of the much earlier Mesopotamian flood story, the Gilgamesh Epic. So, yes, there was flood, but even if the ark was 450 feet, how could it carry 2,000,000 species of animals, from elephants to rhinos to insects?
More interesting . Where did all that water go?
I understand your question from the perspective of the limited scientific information we have as human beings... on this little spec of a planet...
We aren't as GREAT as we tend to think we are.
The apologists will say that tall mountains didn't occur until after the flood, so that there wasn't a need for as much water. Also, they say that the continents didn't separate until after the flood, so that animals could get to Australia.

1: Matthew 22:34-40
The Greatest Commandment
34 Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. 35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
2: Acts 16
What must I do to be saved?
27] And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
[28] But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
[29] Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
[30] And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
[31] And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
One of Satan’s great successes is his success in dividing Christians on an issue that had nothing to do with their salvation.
It is pointed out so you believe the Bible to be both scientifically and historically accurate. When that is achieved you are forced to believe in God ( if you did not previously) and salvation of soul works its way in after that.

I agree with the idea, that it is difficult to see how the world was repopulated with the sons and girls that were there, true only a few, so inbreeding would have been an issue.
