There were actually three arks. The one with the marsupials and monotremes landed in Australia and the one with the dinosaurs sank.
That must have been the 'B' Ark.

Or is life completely meaningless and i'm allowed to watch all the porn I want?
So is that all God is to you? A big father figure that stops you behaving badly because you are frightened he will reject you?
Is that all you are to yourself, an uncontrolled bag of base emotions incapable of behaving yourself without the threat of punishment?
I don’t know which makes me the most sad.

Science does not deal in metaphysics. The existence or non-existence of God is a metaphysical question, and as such science neither attempts to prove or disprove God.
What makes you moral? Do you obey GOD? Do you listen to GOD? Have you been rewarded by GOD?
I certainly hope that in the unlikely event I become unChristian, I wouldn't go on a murderous rampage. The people that scare me the most are those that say if they lose God, they'll start killing people. On can be moral without believing in God, as evidenced by all the atheist and agnostic people in the world. If you're only following the rules because you're scared of punishment, you're no better than the kids trying to cheat Santa.

The universe has spared us this moment.

That would explain it. At last the mystery is solved. Somewhere in Texas a village is missing its idiot I really think you have misunderestimated this great icon of a man, well no perhaps not.
But the bible says that the flood went over the highest mountains, if the flood isn't real, than the bible is flood, than I could watch all the porn I want..
You sound like you really want to watch a lot of porn. I can suggest some good sites if you wish.

Show us which layers in the geological column were layed down by The Flood. If you can't, then I guess you should start watching porn, since you seem desperate to do so.

"It is a false religion that disguises itself as Christianity. It is an Orwellian construct that teaches that Reality is a Lie and that Lies are the Truth. That Science is Religion and Religion is a Personal Relationship; that Belief in the Mundane is Faith and that Atheists have more Faith than Christians. It perverts scripture into making Christianity look foolish, while all the while convincing its victims that they are the "True Christians." It is called Creationism." - Split Rock
