LOL, you do realize that what your saying was before the humans ever existed on earth.

Eartha Q:
Please, study some science.
They don't say that, the geological evidence for a flodd is only regional not world wide.

EVERYONE, stop saying Pangia(however you spell it).
It existed before humans ever walked the earth, before dinasaurs even.

Plate techtonics? Oh... wait... that's science. Nevermind.
Edit to the guy below: if by "back then" you mean 1100 million years ago, then, yeah. But otherwise you're full of carp.

Pretending for a moment that the mythology is true, nowhere does it say there weren't other boats. Maybe his was one of many and the species he had to carry were just those from his region which to him was the whole earth. The Australian animals rode with the Croc Hunter's ancestor, and even then he would say "CRIKEY!" Then a kangaroo kicked him in the nuts because even then, he got on animals' nerves. And lo, he saith, "Wow mates! My left nut beith an cubit and crikey it hurts."
Sorry, couldn't resist a Croc Hunter reference...

It wasn't world wide during the end of the last Ice Age the Ice melted so rapidly on the fertile Crescent which wasn't covered by ice, The Ice melted so rapidly that it basically turned present Day Iraq into a giant Inland sea. Similar floods happened in North America the great Missoula flood

IF the continents were once together, as Genesis 1:9-10 seems to suggests, the animals would not have a problem getting to the down-under.
Sometime after the flood, the continents may at one point, have been effected my catastrophic plate tectonics. Thus the plate movement would have occurred very rapidly, separating the continents, and the animals.

I'm going to let you in on a secret. The stories in the old testament didn't really happen.
Have you guys got rocks in your heads. Continental drift?? If this alleged flood happened sometime in between 3402 and 2462 BC that would mean Australia has drifted the 7000 km from India in 5000 years. NO. This did not happen. Thats 1.5 metres every year. IMPOSSIBLE!

First of all, where do you live? I wonder if you have ever personally seen those "alleged" animals in Australia. Sure, everyone talks about them, but I have never seen them, so I am not sure that they really exist. I think that they are part of a plot to undermine the story of Noah and the ark, the most beautiful, albeit goofy, myth of them all.

Well, i don't really know but my idea is that animals in Austrailia and other places became isolated and evolved into what they are today. Even scientists agree that animals grow in different ways that help them survive.. Check out the Galopogos islands. No other creatures exist in any other area of the world.. good question though.

The flood did not happen in Australia. The river just flooded a little bit. It was not world wide. There was a civilization in India and China at that time. They did not mention any floods.
This is just another mythology.

well first off the whole theory of continental drift that you are discounting could possibly be it....as I don't really believe in carbon dating, and therefore our time line as to when things happened.......so I pretend to know whether that is a viable explanation or not.....
that aside....for me....I don't take the bible literally as things that happened....because even though the bible may be divinely inspired, it was still written by humans, and humans are corrupt. Therefore, the bible is corrupt. I think that most of the stories in the bible are just meant to teach the lesson, and guide us in the right way to live, not meant to be taken literal. But who knows, I could be just completely wrong.
its the same as the whole strict vs. loose interpretation of the constitution........we all see truth, we just have our own angles on it....

The worldwide flood of Noah is documented in sedimentary tables and widely accepted by geologists.
They think that the land masses were once connected to eachother (not seperated by water)
