Everyone laughs at the story of Noah's Ark but I firmly believe it did happen. One of the major criticisms is that you couldn't possibly fit all the species of animal on a boat of that size, and I agree with that. I think that God just wanted Noah to go through the effort of gathering up all the animals that Noah himself knew existed, which wasn't that many, then God would bring the animals that didn't get on the ark back to life. He wanted to teach Noah, and all those who read the Bible, the importance of following His instructions. If Noah hadn't done that, God may have not resurrected all the animals after the flood. I guess that just goes to show the importance of following God's Words ;-)

There is absolutely no evidence that a massive flood of biblical proportions ever occurred during humanity's short existence on Earth, and the mere fact that Noah was supposed to have fit two of every single kind of animal on his boat without them mauling and completely obliterating each other is proposterous.

madmansoup (05/06/2012) [-] Yeah I guess except every SINGLE ancient civilization writing about a planet wide flood. If anything is confirmed in history it is that there WAS a massive flood during mans existence. Not saying it happened for the reasons that the Bible says but there was definitely a flood.

lolfire (05/07/2012) [-] Meh, I'll admit I didn't look too hard, I'm too stoned to actually care about this..
But I did find this;
One estimate of the volume of water in the atmosphere at any one time is about 3,100 cubic miles (mi3) or 12,900 cubic kilometers (km3). That may sound like a lot, but it is only about 0.001 percent of the total Earth’s water volume of about 332,500,000 mi3 (1,385,000,000 km3)
If all of the water in the atmosphere rained down at once, it would only cover the ground to a depth of 2.5 centimeters, about 1 inch.
Additionally, because only 1.7% of the earth’s water is stored underground,12 there is not nearly enough water in groundwater storage beneath the earth’s surface to account for the amount of water necessary to flood the entire earth to the extent described in the Bible.

klondikemonster (05/06/2012) [-] Not really, the mere idea of a flood that large in scale is ridiculous. And please do tell me what other ancient civilization from a DIFFERENT area of the world had legends of a massive flood, and don't mention the Japanese Divine Wind that destroyed the Mongolian invasion fleet, that was a sea storm, not a flood.

madmansoup (05/07/2012) [-] I mean I would hope that such a well educated person such as yourself, who obviously researches all sides of an issue before forming an opinion regarding it, would know about these Native legends already......? How about you do some more individual research and then you can make your claims. for starters, go to Wikipedia, type "Flood Myth", scroll down to the sources section and click on those.
I mean I hate to be an ass but you are simply wrong, like this isn't an issue of beliefs, it's an issue of facts. Civilizations around the world all have flood myths. Fact. More evidence exists that there was a global flood than that the city Troy existed. Fact.
