I must confess, there was no way he could have put all of those animals on that one dinky craft--it was so sad, he was praying and crying and terrified that that horrible god person would smite him, I just couldn't bear it! So I rattled off a little incantation "Weeping man now dry your eyes animals shrink to a convenient size, wherever you roam far or near, here my call and all come here" and at once the ark was filled with cute little diminutive animals, and everything was fine--I never intended to cause such a great mystery that people would be pondering for centuries--I thought I was doing him a favor--wasn't that nice of me?

Endora no problem...have you considered the FACT that the Titanic was built by professionals; the ark was built by amateurs?... think about it...
AND God's power is WAY stronger than the witch of Endor from the book of Samual could imagine in her wildest dreams...but setting that aside... consider also:
actually there have been several books and DVD on this you may enjoy
Noah's ark: a feasibility study - this shows how a handful of people could build and maintain the ark feed the anials etc...

and a related article

How well designed was Noah's ark by Gitt - this shows how the ark is a good combination of stable and practical to constuct

only one pair of each animal type been by on the ark... one dog type for wolves dingos etc...
interestingly other stories such as the Ark of Gilgamesh have a cubed shaped 7 story ark... that would roll around the water like a volleyball... but the Ark of Noah with the ratios given are even used today for design of cruisers and freight ships and reflects good stability and practicality of construction ....Not too shabby for a ship story from the Jewish peoples who never had a Navy, eh??? A recent study by Korean ship engineers suggested going to the dimensiional ratios of the ark for oil tankers to help avoid problems
In the end it is also somewhat amazing that the moutains of Turkey would place the animals isn a fairly central place to spread out over Africa Asia and Europ and over the land bridge to the Americas and land bridge to Austrailia. 157 sultures interestingly have a cultural memory of a flood and not just in the euphrates

Daft!!!
God and Noah had it all figured out without your supposed help!! Well, at least God had it all figured out, Noah was obedient.
Two dogs, two cats, two horses, two goats, etc.
Two YOUNG behemoths, etc.
And if YOU had read the BOOK you would have known it wasn't "one dinky craft"; it was one very large Ark ... an Ark uniquely designed for floating, not for sailing like a modern ocean liner. After all, all it needed to do was to float on top of the waters.

It can be archaeologically proven that the flood was actually a flood on the Euphrates and some bloke put all his animals and stuff on a boat and rode the flood downstream. A few thousand years later nutters say "The world flooded and Noah put all the animals on a boat". Whilst failing to provide any sort of proof at all. Say no to jesus

Awfully nice of you. Your humble spirit is really moving. Good thing you're not one of those mockers of which Proverbs speaks.
