In that Bible story, Noah built a huge ark and put two of every animal within it, right?
Now, if he did in fact do just that, then where did he put the sea life? Hmmm...maybe it wasn't EVERY animal after all...but--WAIT! IF Noah didn't put two of each animal in his ark, then why isn't earth overrun by sealife? (If all land bound animals on earth today started from just two of it's individual species, and the sea life was left alone back in Noah's day, shouldn't we be vastly overpopulated with sea life now?)
The same goes for flying animals like birds and bats....did Noah or someone kill all but two of each kind so they--the birds of the earth--wouldn't bog down the ark?
I have thought WAY to long on this question. Each time I feel I have a good answer, it raises more questions. I've asked babtist preachers, catholic fathers, and reverands of a few other religions. Most say 'trust in God' and "that's just the way it happened, it's not up to us to doubt God's word" and the like. ?
