Read "Canticle for Liebowitz". I read it about 20 years ago. It'll will rock your mind!!
If they found this "thing" intact as they say, there should be both human and animal evidence onboard.
Roman: 17.47", Greek 18.2" English 18" Hebrew (somewhat longer)
Bible 20.24" (ordinary) 21.88" (sacred)
I checked the synopsis via wickipaedia, and it looks interesting.
It's just a hunch, but I think there's plenty underneath the deserts and the ice. Then there are my experiences. If a gun was put to my head, I would proclaim that the world is fake.
Sometimes I blurt these things out, but because a good deal of FReepers are faint of heart, and are founded by strict belief systems, I'm reluctant to post some things sometimes. I like it here, and I'm not looking for grief.
The Genesis account of Noah's Flood fails to mention that Noah made a pit stop in Australia to drop off the kangaroo, platypus, koala, etc., then paddled over to North America to drop off the bison and the rattlesnakes, and swung down to Antarctica to let off a few penguins before heading over to Ararat to disembark.
It's just a few missing verses. No biggie.
Strictly speaking, the Hebrew reads "rrt", not "Ararat"; the vowels are left out. (IIRC, vowel points in Hebrew didn't appear until Roman times.) "RRT" could mean "Urartu" as easily as "Ararat". The Urartu people lived in the area before the Armenians pushed them out. Making matters worse, the Hebrew word translated as "mountains" could mean hills or foothills. Thus "the mountains of rrt" could mean any hills or mountains in the old Urartu lands.
I don't need the Ark to believe in the One God, I am already a believer. But I find this news to be very exciting and I can't wait to see it.
I don't find this topic being covered in "From the Heartland" with John Kasich. Are you sure it will be on at 5:00 (FoxNews)?
Sorry.........I found it.
I want to know how long it takes wood to petrify.
One glance from Helen Thomas is enough to make any wood
disappear completely.

LOL!!!
I actually called his office and verified it. However, he was cancelled once before and it could happen again if time runs short.
Cool, thanks. So there's no way the Ark could be pertrified.
That is one of my favorite books, read it in my high school AP English class senior year. It was a really cool read!
Lol! Amen.
Seems like it's 8 pm? I never did find the show or segment (I think it's the latter) on the Fox site. :')
I wish someone would do sonar and dig up more of what is buried under the frozen tundras in the poles and Alaska etc. I also think they would be amazed at what was they found.
bump.
Interested. But not at all sure how the find could be verified, or what difference it really makes.
