Interesting Article if you've been following the Cornuke claim to have possibly discovered Noah's Ark.

If it's in Iran, that means the last animals off the ark were the jackasses.

When this was first posted, I knew it was too good to be true.

It seems as though every ten years, someone claims to have a photograph or something of the Arc. Then as with UFO sightings, there is not one piece of evidence. Not one nail, not one board...nothing...

Then you end up hearing about it on some hafl @ss documentary on Sundays during rain delays of ball games, narrated by Leonard Nimoy.

What I am wondering right now is why the Ark had a door on each level.

It was too good to be true when it was first announced. Nobody can come up with a plausible explanation of how the ark became petrified wood in 4000 years on the top of a mountain exposed to the elements.

It is completely impossible.

Is there a joke here? I'm slow today.

How did gopherwood become square timbers?

It would be easier than bringing animals onto the Ark and then trying to get them up and down the stairs...

The story of Noah's Ark is ridiculous. A handful of animals, free water life, plants and so forth were stored on an ark, and the water was taken away to an undisclosed location, and they speed migrated and speed evolved to their respective habitats in six thousand years........

Why grown-ups take this seriously is beyond me.

Every picture/drawing of the animal onloading shows a single gangplank and a single door. Why do the artists ignore the three doors requirement? Also, why did they apply bitumen on the inside?

It's not to be taken literally but is in a form that has preserved a teaching complete. Problem is, the key is either lost or in the hands of someone who wants it kept out of public knowledge.

Noah's Ark does not nor did it ever exist. It is fictional.

You think that's strange, you should see the list of things that would have to have happened for evolutionism to be true. Some people will believe anything as long as it supports their worldview, attempts to explain the evidence, and presents some level of justification for their preferred behaviors.

Why, because you say so?
