Noah's Ark

Nails?

Maybe they are going to try and weld the planks together.

Mr. Nye points out the following four facts:

1. a 500 foot boat
2. 8 zookeepers
3. 14,000 animals
4. every plant under water

He then says: 'I ask us all, is that really reasonable?'

To which I say: "Absolutely not."

BUT ...

Matthew 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

So for those men who say it wasn't possible, I applaud them for saying God did it.

Well yes.... if you allow for magic to happen, then all rules of physics go out the window.

Either that, or they used pitch.

You probably believe Chriss Angel is for real, don't you?

How appropriate that the Tabernacle in the Wilderness cost just about as much, and was off-limits to the general population.

So whoever made this video can keep his fake laughter to himself.

Unless, of course, he wants to advertise his ignorance.

I am so sorry that the video was beyond your understanding. The fact is that he showed that Noah and family could not have built the Ark. Too bad you missed that point. And please, no false accusations. The laughter was genuine.

Either that, or they used pitch.

Pitch waterproofs it does not hold the planks together.

 

[Subduction Zone]

I hope they are going to cut their own wood by hand, without the use of sawmills, transport it using only animal power, make their own nails, not use heavy lifting equipment, and with a completely unskilled workforce.

That is a video on an "ark" that was already built. Even using modern machinery it took four times as many man hows to what the Bible said that it took Noah and sons to build without any modern machinery.

Just another failure of the ark story.

tl;dr

I'm not going to read a thirty-foot dissertation on how a miracle of God couldn't have happened scientifically.

Pitch waterproofs it does not hold the planks together.

Then who held the planks together?

Do you believe there was a ninth Person on the Ark?

I do.

Hey your the one posting in the physical sciences section what do you expect?

I don't believe in the existence of the ark so not my problem.

 

[Goonie]

The fact is the ark and a global flood requires miracle piled upon miracle, finished of with 'god' hiding all evidence off said event.

That's what happens when someone takes the attitude:

"Oh, look what so-and-so did in the Bible. I can do that too!"

 

[AV1611VET]

Hey your the one posting in the physical sciences section what do you expect?

Right now I'm making a video look stupid.

And while I understand and appreciate others wanting me to comment on their junk, I'm going to respectfully pass.

Especially if said junk is a thirty-foot dissertation on how a miracle couldn't have happened.

 

[AV1611VET]

I don't believe in the existence of the ark so not my problem.

And yet you read a thirty-foot dissertation on something you don't believe in in the first place?

To each his own, I guess.

 

[lesliedellow]

Either that, or they used pitch.

So they are going to rely upon pitch for its adhesive properties, rather than just waterproofing? Well, this might be even more of a hoot than I thought.

 

[AV1611VET]

We've been through this before, haven't we?

The fact is the ark and a global flood requires miracle piled upon miracle,

Reminds me of Genesis 1.

... finished of with 'god' hiding all evidence off said event.

Yup ... well hidden:

Yup ... well hidden:

Neither picture is evidence of a global flood.

 

[AV1611VET]

God is all the adhesion they need to rely on.

Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.

Well, this might be even more of a hoot than I thought.

No doubt whatsoever.
