Only those unwilling to deal with reality. The rest of us know better.
*If* the Noah fable is true, answer me this:
Where did all the water go that would be required to cover the earth 8 kilometres deep? After all, there was no land uncovered, so that's how much it would take to cover Mount Everest.
If the fictional ark exists, why hasn't it been found? Ararat is a fixed mountain less than 6000 metres tall and has been searched for hundreds of years. So far, nothing. And yet with telescopes we can see meteorites and asteroids as small at 10 metres across from hundreds of millions of kilometres away, and predict their paths and find them again. Why can't anyone find this mythical "ark"?
If the hokey story is true, why would Noah travel around the world and dump out the animals in all sorts of different locations instead of letting them all out at once and in one place?
The fictional "ark", if it were built to the bible's claimed size, would only be able to accomodate at most 10% of the known species of animal if taken in pairs, and that's only if the smallest species were taken, never mind nonsense about elephants being on it. Where did they all fit if there was no room?
When you have serious answers, post them. If your response is "goddidit", it shows that you are unwilling to address the questions.

It was historically proven that Noah's Ark was found somewhere in the mountains of Arabia. Moreover, it is written in the Bible. It is also history that the world was destroyed through a major flood. The Holy Bible is not about fairy tales and ghost stories. It is the inspired Word of God, written by His Servants upon His instructions. The Bible says in Psalms 14:1 that the fools say there is no God. In effect, it is all true. The great flood, Noah's Ark, and everything afterwards. Got it?

the tale of Noah's Ark isn't a babies tale. that's documented interior the Holy Scriptures in advice. that's likewise documented interior the babylonian writings, the position Prophet Noah is named Gelgamesh. The few human beings and animals taken aboard were to maintain the species. The flood occured in a constrained section in Northern Iraq, Southern Turkey and in all likelihood northwest Iran. It grew to grow to be into now no longer a flood of each and every of the international as some human beings believe. There are geologic data that there has been one between those accepted flood. 2 communities have by making use of now found what they declare to be Noah's Ark. The convincing one is on the fringe of a mountain in Southeast Turkey observed as Judie (that's precisely the decision quoted by making use of the Qur'an for the region the position it settled). The provide has been fossilized and that is the way it did now no longer cave in. it variety of feels that as quickly because it grew to grow to be into deserted there grew to grow to be excellent right into a volcano eruption in that mountain. The provide grew to grow to be into for that reason lined thoroughly by making use of lava and buried. The Qur'an says with connection with the Ark ( ...and we've left it as an representation, will there be those who heed to the signal?). I absolutely have pictures of this discovery by making use of a German-Turkish exploration team.

no, I do not, for the simple fact that it was an immpossibilty then as it is now to create such a ship, and for those adults in here that answered it's a fact and there is proof the prove it, in the meantime we have 50 million different species on the face of this planet, which we don't gain more species over the course of time but we destroy alot of them, so the thing is is what would possibly make anybody think that any man could create a ship big enough to store that many different animals and food for them all for 40 days and forty nights? yur high and need to let up off the drugs yer doing if you believe that crap

People like 'oremus fratres' would like to think that the ark story is a 'historical fact'. They ignore the fossil record, carbon dating, logic, reason and observation and yet they use words like 'fact'.
Are these people who believe in Noah and the Ark adults? Technically yes. Do they reason and think logically like adults are expected to? ONLY when it doesn't contradict their Bible. When that happens, all the facts and reason go out the window and they cling like children to this ridiculous fable written thousands of years ago.
God OBLITERATED the ENTIRE PLANET except for ONE BOATLOAD of people and animals in a week-long flood? Are they INSANE? No, they're not insane, they're religious.

If you know the Noah and God's Ark Bible story you must have read this for yourself. What do you believe, I think you know that answer deep inside you and the answer is yes! Never doubt what you read in the Bible. God never made a promise that he has not kept.

yea, whether or not a religious believer, Noah's Ark is a fact, the world was almost completely covered in water, Noah must have survived somehow and in preserving the creatures.

Absolutely.
When Jesus talks about someone, I think that is a good reason to count them in as "real."
Matthew 24:32-51
Luke 17:20-37
And he is listed as a part of Jesus' family line, so when one says Noah didn't exist...one has to question the Bible, Jesus, and the whole story of Jews and Christians. It's not just a debate about whether a story is history or fairy tale.
Luke 3:21-38

almost every religion has a similar story of destruction and rebuilding the earth. it was a popular myth. however, i really do think that the spectrum of colors that makes up light has been a property of light forever so God putting a rainbow in the sky as a promise of anything is stretching the limits of plausibility, even for devout Christians i would hope. as long as there has been light and water droplets in the air, there have been rainbows. sorry.
