Amazing to me how people easily doubt what looks to be the find of mankind’s history...for sure we need not be guilible...but this really looks to be the real deal and I am excited! The world needs this boost badly.

So true. Even on FR where you would think over 85% would belong to some Christian denomination, the Ark threads have been dominated by skeptics.

yeah, it’s a shame...to into their thoughts where the darkness reigns. Fhu.com is where people, including thousands of soldiers, are being set free with a wonderful be still exercise. They call it “coping strategies” for the troops. Totally made my faith come alive.

The multiplicity of flood stories is more likely the result of a single shared memory stemming from the retelling of the original flood story by Grandpa Noah, propagating into future generations tracking on migration paths.

Therefore, no, nothing about the event predicts finding multiple boats lying around. Quite the opposite. If the story is true, as you seem to grant (and I agree), then the supernatural design of the event must be considered. If, as the story infers, God intended to wipe out all human and otherwise mammalian life, and only spare Noah et al, and if only Noah acted on the belief that a crisis was impending, then it follows that God, as God, would be able to accomplish his stated goal, and that Noah would therefore be the only one prepared for the massive scale of the approaching cataclysm.

blah, blah, blah....Isn’t anyway to prove it

There is no way to "prove" any event from history. The historical method does not lend itself to "proof." "Proof" requires a controlled experiment that is repeatable in laboratory conditions. However, it is possible to provide enough evidence that all but the most recalcitrant skeptic must accept the findings.

For example, the explorers could take photos that are timestamped and gps'd. The explorers could take others up to the same location who could verify what was found. There is much evidence that could be put forward that the explorers have yet to provide. I am skeptical of this too. However, I am open to being convinced if enough evidence is put forward. I suggest a similar openness on your part.

I have a question about the Ark: If the Ark settled high on Mt. Ararat it's safe to presume the water level was pretty high and that it settled on what would basically be an island sticking up out of the water. There would be similar islands sticking up all over the place till the water could recede.

Where did the animals go? Wouldn't they have been stuck on a bare mountain with no food? How did they travel from one island to the next?

Or, did the waters magically disappear revealing the earth as it is today?

Yes of course...the waters did recede. How God did it is not known, but how God made your incredible body with more efficient and complex functions than any machine man has ever made is not known either...yet here you are!

I actually rode with Capt. Noah down the Delaware River in Philly one time.

since the world was flat back then how did the water stay on the world?and they knew nothing about this side of the world,so how did he get the animals back to the ark?there is a lot to ponder about this story.

Just because someone is a Christian, doesn't mean they have to check their intellect at the door. The story of Noah is so facially absurd and completely counter to principles of well-understood physics, geology, animal husbandry, and naval architecture, common sense dictates that the story be discounted as myth, rather than historical fact.

The only thing that someone with a reasonable understand of modern science can say about the Arc, exactly like the Unicorn that is found in multiple Biblical passages, is that there is no scientific evidence to support any kind of belief in its existence.

I think there is a carbon dating already in existence on the wood that puts it in the 4700-4800 BC range. Some samples have been taken with grain which will ultimately permit matching to give you the time line when the tree was growing.

Faulsteich (Christian Chronology Reaserch) places the flood at 2368 (?) (first half of the 24th Century BC) so if Noah built for several hundred years which I believe is consistent with the Bible story, this probably fits.

Many of the rest of the competing stories reflect the same structure; broken in half on the mountain; and the airplane pictures are the same; as well as the guide stories from the 1800's.

I am a fundamental Bible Christian--I believe the story because the Bible says so. But this is an interesting artifact.

I guess you have not really looked into the scientific evidence of the flood. What maybe you fail to understand is that science is the study of, and biblical and spiritual things are part of that eventhough the darwinists have hikacked science and try to redefine it and have taken the spitual out of it. You obviously have checked your commonsense at the intellectual door. God does amazing things and was ablle to do what He needed to do ..whether or not we can prove it scientifically is beside the point. What will you say when and if this site is verfied as being Noah’s ark?

"What will you say when and if this site is verfied as being Noah’s ark?"

I would say the same thing I said when the Bigfoot carcass from a couple years ago was "verified" to be Bigfoot - show me the scientific evidence - evidence that was tested and verified by independent laboratories and authorities.

With respect to "scientific evidence" of a world-wide flood some 4,800 years ago - there isn't any. All there is the musing of pseudo-scientists and quacks. 4,800 years, in geological terms, is barely a blink of an eye. Evidence of such a flood would be abundant, and so completely compelling that the "flood" would be taught in every college-level survey of geology in the world. It isn't. That should tell you something, but I suppose that it won't.

You simply are bowing to the religion of science..sorry..you are not being honest in saying that there is no scientific evidence for a worldwide floods. Either that or you are badly misinformed. Anyone can do a simple search on that and see it for themselves. I feel bad for you because you honestly are full of doubt and it is masquarading as knowledge. God bless...

"You simply are bowing to the religion of science..sorry..you are not being honest in saying that there is no scientific evidence for a worldwide floods. Either that or you are badly misinformed. Anyone can do a simple search on that and see it for themselves."

I went to a Catholic grade school, high school, college and graduate school, and never was instructed in science class about a most remote possibility of a "great flood", some 4,800 years ago.

If you asked such a question in a 100 level, survey of geology class, you would be laughed at, just like you would be laughed at if you posited that man and dinosaur walked the earth at the same time.

It's not a "religion of science", it's a fidelity to common sense based on empirical evidence, not spiritual belief.

I will not argue with you..anyone reading this can do their own searching and see for themselves that is is much evidence for a worldwide flood...they don’t have to believe either one of us!
