Remember the Biblical Noah and the Ark story? I have posers for my christian believers?

Question

1. Where did the water come from and where did it go?
2.How did Noah collect all the animals from Arctic to Artantica? And round the world on foot?
3.What did the carnivorous animals like lion feed on without destroying the lineage of some animals like anthelope?.
4.How big was the Ark that contained all the millions of animal species that included the huge mammoths and dinosaurs?
5.What materials did Noah use to hold such a huge structure together?
6.Could we trust the biblical account of the flood as real? A myth?

Answer 1

You forgot 7. How did Noah prevent woodworm without modern wood treatment whilst still keeping woodworm alive?

Answer 2

1. The water came from the sky...rain. Then it evaporated and ran off like water does.

2. Noah more than likely collected local species that he wanted to save. He did not go to the Artics or anywhere else for that matter.

3. Before the flood animals ate only vegetables.

[Gen 9:3] Every creature that is alive shall be yours to eat; I give them all to you as I did the green plants.

Footnote:
Antediluvian creatures, including man, are depicted as vegetarians (Genesis 1:29-30), becoming carnivorous only after the flood.

4. There were no mammoths or dinosaurs at that time and answer 2 should explain the room problem.

5. He built it out of gopherwood and probably used wooden pegs and he sealed it with pitch.

6. If you remember the pictures shown after hurricane Katrina, I am sure those people felt like the whole world was flooded. Noah lived in a kind of hugh basin and I believe the flood over flowed that area. The biblical account is used by Christians as an example of people (Noah and his family) saved by the waters as in Baptism, among many other lessons.

Answer 3

All your answers can be found in the Bible this much I will tell you the water came from a water canopy that was circling the earth 2 the real ark was found on Mt arrat in turkey and dinosaurs were extinct at the time and all carnivores were vegetarians for the duration of the time in the ark and God brought the animals to Noah so go read the Bible account learn something expand your mind with facts have fun Gorbalizer

Answer 4

1. The water came out of a rock, when Moses tapped it with his cane. Don't you read your Bible? Or perhaps you didn't know that you have to start at the end and read towards the beginning.

2. Noah collected all the animals by whistling really loudly. I think he had to do it several times.

3. The carnivorous animals fed on unicorns, rocs, gryphons, fisherines, and hodags. I'm surprised that you didn't know that.

4. The Ark was about 20 feet across, and 40 feet long. That should be big enough, right? (counts on his fingers really quick...)

5. Lots of duct tape. Or no, wait, it was a miracle. Yeah, that's it.

6. It's real. They found Noah's Ark, you know. I saw it once on TV, so it must be true.

Answer 5

Creationists who cannot avoid answering these questions pose the following answers:

1: God's voice shatterd the "firmament" and sent it crashing down on the earth, liquifying it as it went. More water bubbled up from the earth itself. As for where it went...pick the impossibility that suits you...
2: Simple: Godidit. (More magic.)
3: God kept the animal's hungers in check until they had reproduced enough to hunt. (And what about the plants?)
4: It was magically bigger on the inside than on the outside. Or: Larger than the largest aircraft carriers put together. (Never mind that no wooden structure so large could possibly hold itself together due to real-world physics. Or that the whole thing was somehow ventilated by one tiny window...)
5: "Gopherwood"...whatever that means. (There isn't any such stuff. It would have to be stronger than steel to work.)
6: Creationists would insist that it was absolutely real.

I cast my vote for myth, considering the number of times magic has to be invoked as an explanation...

Answer 6

.. and how pray tell might each and every individual understand that its Noah's ark ? and not in hassle-free terms a random boat.. wood does not shield nicely... and how might a international flood not circulate away any hint? and how come it is quite like the 10th time they "got here across NOAH'S ARK" and claimed all styles of bullshit later having to chew their tongue reason they had to admit it became bullshit. the story in itself is so idiotic, and has maximum of severe flaws that there is not any real way that's genuine... in keeping with risk there may be some very easy reality that the story is provided on.. yet by way of the years that is been over dramatized and perverted to the element that maximum fairy memories are greater probable to be genuine.

Answer 7

The animals came to Noah.
The water came from a rock? Ok..
There are many theories for how much rain it rained, and where teh rain came from. Being that prior to the ark the land was almost a paradise, some christian scientists argue that a layer of water molecules/gas covered the earth, something of a second atmosphere. The gas would've provided an excellent tropical like environment throughout the world, as it would heat the earth and keep all of the earth at a constant temperature (I would have to look more into it when it comes to the imbalance of heat distribution though). When God said that i would rain,water droplets formed and fell to the earth. Today we have underwater mountains. Most of the worlds fresh water is trapped in glaciers.

Answer 8

The Bible states the rains came from the canopy that surrounded the earth.
The Bible states God sent the animals to Moses.
Dinosaurs and others perished in the flood.

The Bible states how big the ark was. It was big
The Bible states what the ark was made of.
Try reading the Bible, you'll like it and learn things also.

Answer 9

God sent rain down.
the ark was to be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. Genesis Chapter 6:14.
I'm sure God gathered, called to the animals to come to the ark.
3. God is powerful and can cause one animal to either eat, or not eat another.
It rained 40 days. Genesis 7:17.
If you trust Jesus and God, yes, you can trust what the Bible says.

Answer 10

You are very curious. I would suggest asking God these many questions when you meet Him. You do know that the dinosaurs were extinct long before Noah built the arc, right?
