Must have been quite a chore, huh?

Hey, there are about half a million species that would be wiped out by a global flood. I am not sure where Noah would have sequestered all those creatures.

Of course, the Bible pushers and creationists would say that God created all these creatures after the flood.

Can't win with them. If they get in a hole, the just bring up God's ability to pull rabbits out of a hat.

I wonder how God feels about being made to look a tricky magician, burying all those dinosaur bones and a millions other extinct animal bones to fool millions of scientists.

What a joke.

Actually, I wouldn't completely discount the Noah story. Not long before the start of civilisation as we know it, the receding glaciers of the ice age were causing floods in a lot of different places. I would guess that a farmer that we call Noah saw the water rising and had the foresight to build a large craft to save his animals.

the story has simply been blown up with time. Also, back then people had no idea of the extent of the earth, and a substantial local flood would be looked upon as a global flood.

I was on a trip to Scotland two years ago with a group of people and over breakfast one man told of how he had been to Turkey and had actually held in his hands a piece of the wood from Noah's ark.

I laughted and said he had been conned because of his ignorance. He became quite indignant and left the breakfast table in a huff. I found that several at the table defended him and felt that belief determined truth and that I was out of line to question the "truth" of the Bible.

Well, what that tells me is that many people don't have a clear idea of how to determine truth and that many people really are ignorant and that such silly beliefs, as the beliefs in the scientific accuracy of the Bible, need to be ridiculed and exposed for the childish nonsense that they are. IT IS TIME THAT AMERICANS STOP BEING IGNORANT ABOUT RELIGION AND SCIENCE.

So keep asking the silly questions that are the consequence of the taking the Bible as a literal history and/or scientifically accurate document. If the Bible is the inerrant word of God then you have to conclude that God is a sardonic idiot or a sadistic trickster. And people want to worship THAT?!

There is no reference to dinosaur eggs in Noah's Ark? Genesis Chap 6.19-20 refers only to a male and female of each animal.
Such a comments suggests you have not read Genesis Chapter 6 at all. A good read!

Noah Webster didn't gather up anything to put on an ark, he wrote a dictionary.

Not sure if your seriously asking this, or if your just being loony.
But that question would be impossible to answer since the bible says nothing about that.

It is reasonable to say there were dinosaurs on the arc, smaller ones of course, But to ask how long it took to gather dino eggs? lol c'mon

This question is ridiculous and has nothing to do with science, but according to the Bible story, Noah took two of each animal. He didn't take any eggs.

The kangaroos must have been a bit of a challenge as well.
