The longest ship ever built, using steel and modern ship building was 1/4 mile long, 200 ft tall and took 2000 men 2 years to build.
This monster ship would not be big enough to house 2 of every species of ant, spider and beatle on earth.
So just exactly how big was this wooden Ark that Noah and Co are supposed to have built to house 2 of all the species of animal in the world? Even if you accept that Marine, Freshwater and Airborne animals needn't have been housed, the Ark would have had to be so big that it would have dwarfed the largest container ship in the world today...made out of Gopher Wood...yeah right.
I heard an arguement that maybe the animals were young, or in some cases eggs....Ok, who reared them whilst they grew up?
And....where was all the food stored?
It's just not true is it? It can't be can it? Can anyone point out the error of my ways?
