Take a look at it. By the measurements of the ark as taken from the bible, the thing was only 490ft. long, 80ft. wide, and 50ft. tall*.
Now take a look at the number of species that currently exist on the planet. Look at the variations within species. Take into acount insects, antrhopods, etc. Is there any possible way to fit all of them (2 of each) and a family (of what was it? 8 or so?) comfortably. Hell, you can't even do it uncomfortably.
So if only a handful** of species survived "the flood" Where did all of the others come from?***
*Measurements based on the Babylonian Cubit and rounded for ease of explanation.
**of what we see today.
*** I do not believe the biblical, or any other creation story to be factual. I'm simply positing a hypothetical to illustrate an inconsistancy.
