Because substituting dogma for science makes a mockery of real, actual science. Or maybe there were 3 arks? Faith is one thing, willful ignorance and stupidity is another.

Faith is one thing, willful ignorance and stupidity is another.

Yet I fear the day will come when some Ann Coulter is going to condemn us as a bunch of godless atheists for not believing this story.

There may have been 12 arks....*shrug*...so what?

Explain away the fact that the flood mythos is universal...

Has is occured to you that there may very well be scientific fact behind the myth?

A near miss of a large spacial body?...the shifting of a tectonic plate?....the shifting of the magnetic poles?

An asteriod hit on an ocean?

One interesting theory is that a land bridge between the striaghts of gebralter collapsed in a massive earth quake and flood what is now the mediteranian sea...

There are documented cities on the bottom of the mediteranian...but then you allready knew that..

There are quite few scientific explainations that could displace a huge amount of water...

There are also several mythological possibilities...including the destruction of atlantis (if it ever existed)...

Just who is it that has the closed mind here?
