It's fine if you believe that Noah built an ark and put all of God's creatures, male and female, into that ark and they had enough provisions to live for a year, to survive a flood that wiped out all other living things.
But if the ark contained all of earthly life from elephants and dinosaurs, to alligators and snakes, horses and cows, rats and cats, it would have to be a limited number of species to actually fit inside the ark. I'm not even considering all the insect life, they must have been on their own to survive.
So, in order for those limited number of animal species to equal the current widely accepted estimate of 45,000 vertabrates on earth, there would have to be some EVOLUTION going on. Otherwise Noah would have been carrying about 100,000 critters and enough food to feed them and that would take one big @ssed boat!
So, either it was a MIRACLE, which I suppose many will answer. Or you believe that species EVOLVED from that limited number on the boat. Or, BUNK!
