For the ark to be found it would increase man’s faith and thats not in the nwo plan so they hide the truth about this as long as they can
I hear ya there.
So they didn't have oceans 4800 years ago?
The inside looks as much like a house as it does a boat. I would like to see more photos before I decide.
A Cowichan Legend
In ancient times, there were so many people in the land that they lived everywhere. Soon hunting became bad and food scarce, so that the people quarreled over hunting territories.
Even in those days, the people were skilled in making fine canoes and paddles from cedars, and clothing and baskets from their bark. In dreams their wise old men could see the future, and there came a time when they all had similar bad dreams that kept coming to them over and over again. The dreams warned of a great flood. This troubled the wise men who told each other about their dreams. They found that they all had dreamed that rain fell for such a long time, or that the river rose, causing a great flood so that all of the people were drowned. They were much afraid and called a council to hear their dreams and decide what should be done. One said that they should build a great raft by tying many canoes together. Some of the people agreed, but others laughed at the old men and their dreams.
The people who believed in the dreams worked hard building the raft. It took many moons of hard work, lashing huge cedar log canoes together with strong ropes of cedar bark. When it was completed, they tied the raft with a great rope of cedar bark to the top of Mount Cowichan by passing one end of the rope through the center of a huge stone which can still be seen there.
Another Native American tale speaks of a Large Canoe which carried the people to safety.
And so it goes!
And just how did the ark get in the turkey?
It floated to its final landing place... :-)
Then the oceans got 13,000 deeper?
It isn’t supposed to have been built there, it landed on a high place as the flood waters receded.
“So they didn’t have oceans 4800 years ago?”
Perhaps not. We clearly know the continents have shifted over time and mountains have been pushed up.
Here is something to think about...
The sources of the water are given in Genesis 7:11 as “the fountains of the great deep” and the “windows of heaven.”
Fountains of the deep implies water below ground. Windows of heaven implies a water canopy of some kind.
Separate the continents, push up the land mass, there is plenty of room for water to go...
Don’t have any claim to absolute here. Just thinkin’ with you...
That’s right. Christians can’t be scientists. They are the only ones with an agenda and willing to skew, distort, and manufacture findings.
Only truly objective atheists or agnostics really see the truth and report it no matter what the conclusion. They are the ones with no agenda and should be trusted. /sarcasm
Thrust upwards of mountains, separation of continents, sinking of land that was over the “fountains of the deep”.
Who knows?

WND has a much better article on this ... includes more photos and much more information.
Don’t confuse “earth” with the known “world” of the time. It’s like God creating the world in six days. How long are one of God’s days?
Here’s a terrifying thought. Supposing that all our known civilizations are post-flood. Imagine if Noah actually lived in a time more technologically advanced than we associate with the ancients....The society he lived in waxes as evil as ours....and then God decides he’s had enough, so he tells Noah build an Ark. The Bible tells us what it is built of- but it doesn’t say whether or not it was powered, and does tell us that it was rather large (imagine building a very large ship with no power tools...maybe Noah had some...) Then along comes the flood, Noah and company survive, but the all the techniques of civilization are gone- just whatever they happened to take with them- which goes away after their power sources are used up, etc. And of course, several thousand years later, if it is like a lot of our cheap tools, they don’t survive. Probably totally off base, but I figure why not speculate....
It’s always good to get wood.
Do agree the Black Sea was originally an immense fresh water lake that was eventually flooded by sea water from the rising Med. Don’t agree it was the site of the Noah/Gilgamesh story. Much more likely to find the origins of the story in the Persian Gulf (another fresh water lake flooded by rising sea water). Check out the geographical location of Eden, it weren’t near the Black Sea.
But Matthew 7:13,14 says most will not.
Many will be lost, few will be saved.
I'd like to think there are more saved people here than in the general population.
You wouldn't think that sometime though with all the vocal agnostics and atheists here.
