- For thousands of years, people have proposed many objections to Noah’s ark. Because of these doubts, most people don’t even believe that Noah’s ark was real, but think that it was just a made-up story. In this video, Calvin Smith from Answers in Genesis-Canada gives an extremely thorough overview of Noah’s ark that will challenge skeptics and encourage Christians.

My biggest contention with many portrayals and explanations is that the ark was NOT a ship. It did not need a bow, a stern, anchors or any other ship stuff. It did not have to navigate the waters or any such thing; all it had to do was float, that's all, nothing more.
@@kirkkirkland7244 I watched a documentary on the ark many years ago where they put a replica in a wave tank and simulated 100+ foot waves and the ark didn’t have any problems. Seismic activity does not produce surface waves until the tsunami reaches shallow water.
The Ark had anti-gravity generators.
One only has to look back two or three centuries in the writings of educated people to grasp the degradation in man’s intellect.
Long ago I saw an article with pictures that showed prehistoric cave paintings depicting men hunting and killing dinosaurs. It was hypothesized that the carbon dating method had to be “off” from accepted norms of the time, since according to that science man’s evolution post dated the time of most dinosaurs on earth.
@@armyrabb1 I saw that, too. I'm surprised it's not talked about more.
just because you or i don't understand something doesn't automatically make it impossible
Àbsolutely!
And just because you can't see something doesn't mean it's not there.
There u go!!!!
@@jjano2320 example is the wind.
Thank you! Excellent point. How many people understand how radio works? The internet or even the sun, but we all believe and benefit from their existence.
I agree with the previous comment from David Rabb. It was not likely that the ark had a pointed bow and rounded stern. It is more reasonable to conclude that it was a rectangular box like structure. As he mentioned, it was meant to float, not navigate or be propelled through the water.
Its most reasonable to understand that it is pure fiction.
@@marveloussoftware1417 That's just your belief though.
Every culture on the face of this planet has a story of Noah
The Chinese don't, the Japanese don't, every tribe in North and South America doesn't, the Egyptians didn't, the Babylonians, and all the Indus valley civilizations don't, the Australian aborigines didn't. I think your point being is that you are too much of a MAGA head to actually google this stuff up.
Or more precisely, a story about a "great flood".
LOL Love that user name!
Why would they have stories if they were all killed in the flood?
Floods happen most places. That doesn't explain that a plagiarized story has any truth to it. Do the math and that proves it false unless you don't believe math works.
Noah didn’t have to know everything God reviled it all to him
Why would God have reviled Noah?
@@LimeyTX mispelling? Perhaps he meant to say "revealed" or spell check chose to respell what LimeyTX typed
That's revealed
@@99Papadave no no reviled is correct...
Jealous and vengeful God remember...😏
He reviled it alright.
I can attest to the fact that even in just the past 50 years, mankind has lost intelligence
I second that assessment
David, Seems America is a the top of the list? Stay safe.
Woke ideology is testament to that.
How about the last 10 years have been a straight drop off into the abyss of no return. This decline in critical thinking, the norm for which studies are taught are not because the system is broken by any means no it was absolutely designed this way to destroy humanity's accession to a higher state of consciousness and keep us enslaved in this low vibrational matrix
It started around 6 years ago. People are starting to regain their intelligence now.
I want to go to the Ark Encounter!!! Hopefully one day!! Praise God always!
You won't regret it. Make sure you have an ENTIRE day for it, it's that big. If you cannot walk a mile, bring or rent a motorized scooter. How many miles would you have to travel to get there?

Concerning the tv commercial that touts the Bible as a history book.
As a science advocate, I take strong issue with the nonscience the Ark Adventure peddles to families and students. Their parody of the scientific method does real harm, bleeding inexorably into education and public policy. The wholehearted embrace of "alternative facts" and the rejection of plain evidence are making our society more and more polarized.
Concerning their commercial, the Bible is NOT a history book as they claim. Historians must rely on physical evidence and accounts judged probable given known natural laws. Therefore, biblical accounts involving overt miracles-while possibly true from a religious perspective-do not meet the high bar required to qualify as historically reliable. Deceptive or not?
In contrast to theology, history as an academic discipline deals with people, events, and evidence that can be empirically analyzed. Historians focus on discovering facts, uncovering primary sources, and verifying claims through critical analysis. Unlike matters of faith, historical claims can be corroborated by tangible proofs like archaeological findings, written records from the time period, corroborating accounts, etc. Historians rely on evidence, not faith.
Legitimate historiography requires examining all texts and sources according to uniform benchmarks of reliability and accuracy. Biblical writings cannot withstand the same scrutiny and corroboration applied to non-religious historical documents and often rely on supernatural explanations.
Hence, the Bible fails to meet conventional standards for impartial, evidence-based history.
Baaaaaaahhhhhh...
This is the kind of study I like to see, an honest attempt at the truth. Thank You and may
GOD Bless you.
Honest attempt is definitely not what this was. How can you be honest attempt at the truth when your a YEC. This is pseudoscience
I had ~10 years in Architecture. I built a scale model of the ark according to the biblical proportions & I built it like a 3 story barge, with a keel, It floated very stably, though I stirred the water vigorously. This author did a very good job, thank you & shalom
Did you build this ark out of thousands of to-scale boards using wooden pegs to connect them ? Did you leave it in water for the same length as the ark supposedly was exposed. Those would be extremely relevant variables that would impact a boats buoyancy. Do you think stirring the water accurately portrayed the conditions of a world-wide flood ? I'm sort of hoping you haven't designed any buildings.
@@mrhwi don't you believe in God?
@@nope10 No. I'm an atheist. That means I don't know 100% for sure one way or the other but I've seen zero evidence for the existence of any god (christian, muslim, hindu, greek, roman or any montheistic god or polytheistic gods etc...). I tend to say tongue in cheek that there is as much evidence for the christian god as there is for Happy the spotted unicorn that sneezed all of existence into being. So at this point, I don't believe in a god and I think the existence of one is extremely unlikely. The time to believe a thing is when its proven to be true.
@@nope10 What does that have to do with anything? They merely questioned how this person built it.
If you claim to build a scale model, it should be as accurate as possible.
Don’t you believe in science?

noah didnt gather the animals god called most of them in
Thanks for saying that. All it takes is one little slip of the lip like How did Noah gather all those creatures? To get people to doubt scripture. Thanks for the truth.
Exactly
GOD did. Not Noah
A non existing god CANT gather millions of animals into a wooden boat,…..unless you decide to use your brain

The dinosaur part… LOL. That’s it. LOL.
You never heard about Behemoth?
So what's so funny ... Evolutionist want us to believe we came from animals now that's funny DNA which is science by the way says otherwise! They also tell us we come from another planet and other ideas / theories. If you watched this video to it's end you have to start asking questions about what you have been taught growing up and if your asking those questions then you might want to start investigating those theories, while your at it investigate these find the answers then come back with evidence, either way and let me know what you find out .

We started off knowing everything, now we know very little
The story of Noah was plagiarized from Sumerian legend much older then the Hebrews. Read the story of Gilgamesh. Found on ancient clay tablets in Iraq. Plenty of documentation available.
The fact is Noah's name was not Noah. He was not Jewish or Hebrew. And the story is a work of fiction.
Noah's strength and stamina far exceeded the strongest men of today.
Evidence?
@@robertduchaine2600 I'd have to explain nutrition and that's far to long a subject. What I'll do is... in a couple of days I'll give you some links of renown Doctors... Scientists in that field. What I can say is that... today humans in the 1st World Countries are living longer with current medical technology. If we how are alive today didn't have the technology to keep us alive, a lot of us would be dead. I have maladies that have never been in my ancestral gene pool. We are being "keep alive" by technology, but with far more maladies as we move toward death. I'm heading toward 70. My Grandparents lived without the technology of today and lived into their late 80. All my friends Grand Parents lived into their late 80s and 90s. Several of my distant relatives lived a few years past 100. With their mental faculties intact. All my friends and my Parents have only lived into the late 70s and early 80s but!...with one main difference. Processed food! There is such thing as pure clean food or water anymore. As I said... I could get heavy into this subject but this would turn into a book. I'll get you the links and you decide for yourself.
Noah as the others in his day lived almost a millennial so yes they were physically superior due to the different atmosphere we had then and the slow deteriation from eternal life due to sin
Its a fact that people from the past were stronger . Men have lost 70% of their testosterone in the last 3 generations.
I am from a construction background and easy see how pathetically weak and low stamina men are today compared to just 40 years ago.
You can hit me with all the blah blah you want to about modern nutrition /medicine. When building something required muscle to cut , shape, attach every little piece , man was much more substantial. My grandfather was an old style master carpenter . Even at 80 years old, he was more man than me at 30. I was more man at 30 than 3 punks that live on social media and have everything handed to them at the push of a button . I caught my grandfather carrying a 200lb log on his shoulder across my yard at over 80 years old , with a bad hip , walking with a cane . He refused my help when I came home from work and saw him.
He died at 96 and never went to Doctors . He made moonshine for years and drank his profits. He smoked filterless cigarettes.
People today are jokes compared to men just 100 years ago .
There are records of many of my ancestors living close to 100 years, some beyond . My great grandmother died at 103. My mother is 88 and sharp as a tack. She was under the care of "modern medicine " for several years and had high blood pressure and diabetes. She decided to get away from the Drs and get back to living off God's remedies . Now, she has normal BP and no longer diabetic !
He had three sons also daughter in laws could help also
Until I went to the Ark in Kentucky it was hard to understand or comprehend. Seeing a full sized replica is awesome. as you walk through it there are explanations of what each part and level was used for . still amazed at how big and all that went in to planning , feeding ect. for the animals. It takes all day to go through. AMAZING!
I'm so glad you got to see it and have an understanding of its true capabilities! 🙏🏽
Now how about you spend a day researching all the evidence against such a flood ever occurring on earth, or that the continents all "drifted" to where they are today in just 6,000 years, or that man existed with dinosaurs. In other words, how about researching all possibilities, then drawing a conclusion based on evidence, rather than just believing in a story written by men a few thousand years ago.
Check the Ark they found on top of Mount Arrak in Turkey!!!!
@@berndmayer1765 They didn't. It was nothing but a natural rock structure that resembled the shape of a ship. Google it.
@@wallyman292 That's not what I have seen.
Where will I find the second episode, and maybe other episodes about Noah's Ark?
The practical design limit for a timber ship is 400 feet it is possible to design a wooden ship with a truss work frame, although it would be challenging to construct such a ship. The use of a truss work frame would allow for the construction of a wooden ship that is longer than the typical 400-foot limit for wooden ships. It would how ever leave very little room for cargo
A boat is structurally very similar to a bridge (or an airplane wing). At its worst case (e.g. in very heavy seas) it will be supported by the ends, or entirely in the center with one/both ends cantilevered. For a given length, mass, etc, a certain amount of strength is required to meet the structural needs of a boat hull go past that limit you end up with catastrophic failure i.e the ship beaks up. Have a look at what Happen to the MV Arvin as an example of what happens to ship when it is used out it design constraints. I fail to se how the Ark could have survived a 40 day storm given it size.
God is not limited by the rules of physics and engineering.
@@markb3786so it works because magic? That is a good way to get out of explaining anything
The Ark was not a ship. It was a floating barge with no propulsion, no steering.
The Creator can do anything.
except build an ark , apparently
If it Is all knowing, all seeing, all powerful, eternal etc, how could it ever 'get lost'?
If God is omniscient, he knows everything that will happen before it happens. If he is omnipotent, he can change the future. These 2 powers are mutually exclusive and illogical. If you truly evaluate the claims believers make for God, you find all of them are illogical and/or nonsensicsl.
and yet children being born disabled no arms or legs lol if it says your jesus died for your sins then why are you born a sinner lol book contradicts itself
@@jamesnicholas9215 And so we learn that god works in mysterious ways - such a simple means to quieten idiots.
Great explanation of possible ways. The Bible says it, so I believe it. If God can create all we see and have in 6 days, He could have surely asked Noah to spend the years to build His ark. Have been to the Ark encounter, it is an amazing creation and engineering feat of man. Explains many possible solutions to the ark..Great vid, just have faith…
@Edwin Saxon you need to remember we’re speaking about God, with whom ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. Either you believe or you don’t.
do you really think that the biblical 6 days lasted 6x24 hours... or were these more like thousands of years
God CANNOT stop cancer killing children! (The Lord is 'too busy' for such trivial things!) 🙀
It took a hundred years to build the Ark. Study the Bible.
@Edwin Saxon BIBLE - READ
I was expecting to see the inside and the layout of the ark. The joinery, the stacking of stalls, how they dealt with feeding, the manure etc…
There are CZcamss of the construction of the Ark at the Ark Encounter and there are video tours of it at its completion.
I've always wondered about the termites. I mean we have them today but it seems they would've ate the ark in a few weeks
They don’t have that information because it’s just a made up story.

Beyond interesting and amazing, I had to listen to it twice , it was just that interesting! Thanks for sharing!
One thing people forget is the ark was built with 3 stories.
So? That still only allows for a maximum exterior area of 2.3 acres of surface space and a maximum of 10 cubits of height for each deck, BUT doesn't take into account the space lost due to hull shape, roof and exterior walls, interior walls, cage walls, floors, shoring and support beams, stairways and ramps, room for the bilge (area for waste runoff and ballast to keep the Ark upright), the 1 cubit opening near the roof, etc. 300 cubits by 50 cubits by 3 decks amounts to around 101,000 sq ft. 1 acre is 43,560 sq ft. Do the math. (it also calculates out to 1.75 standard American Football fields, if that helps you visualize). Try taking that space, build a wall 15 ft around it with only 1 door and one 18-inch opening at the top, fill it full of animals, per Genesis specs, and 8 human caretakers, seal it up for 1 year and 10 or 17 days, open the door at the end of that time and see who's still alive. THEN make them live off that storage food and water long enough to plant and harvest new crops, emulating the sterilized soil that would exist after the year+ of the flood.
@@philleprechaun6240 well I guess if you want to continue hiding from God through your calculations just know you will face him one day and die in your sins because of your unbelief.

If this was really discovered,can you sent me some proof of them excavating the site because I can’t find one,not one. You have to remember that according to the Noah myth and YEC the continents hadn’t split,so there couldn’t be any mountains as mountains are created by tectonic plates movement. That’s why you see sea creatures on top of mountains because millions of years ago the mountains were covered with sea water on the ocean floor. It’s a ludicrous story when you think about it locally. 5000 years ago there were mountains, dry high mountains which make the flood myth impossible.

This has to be the most intelligent video/commentary about the ark and flood I have watched. Kudos to perfectly marrying Biblical understanding and faith with science. It's very refreshing to know there are those who aren't afraid to think or even challenge what they were taught. That's how we learn and grow. Thank you!
And every civilization existing at the time seemed to have missed the flood memo. They kept right on existing, like it never happened.

What if the rise of the water from the approaching storms drove the animals to the ark. If it was on higher ground? It would seem as if they were being called when they were being guided.
There would have been many more than just the two and seven of each kind.
While I am not convinced the author or any of us mortals knows the true story of the flood, what I do know is that God can use supernatural capabilities, not unlike Jesus used when he asked God to change water to wine or raise the dead. It would seem certain that God has these abilities to move mountains at will, as he says we all do, then herding the animals would have been accomplished with or without the use of higher ground.
How did they get from Australia or small islands all over the world?
@@ronmarvicsin7709 That is a definite question upon which the story of the flood is argued. There are answers and I am certain that as time passes more convoluted suggestions will be discussed. However the best answer today has to do with is the universe created or naturally aspired. Many scientists have come to consider that the universe is a simulation, a very good one but scientific factors such as the double slit have provoked consideration. For example, in a very good video game none of the details are rendered until the game play considers it necessary. This is because computing power is limited. In the same way, science is now considering that much of what exists only exists when it's details are required to be rendered. In this case, Australia may not have been rendered or there was no need for the flood to be inclusive. Is the universe a simulation? The definitive answer is that it would make no difference and that is the true mystery. Just as an addendum, is it important that some animals are self aware and others are not....what difference would that make in a simulation where the islands and the animals therein, were not in existence until observed. Or not.

Though I don't agree with your conclusions, let me just say that you have an amazingly good oration voice with very clear dictation. It's a pleasure to listen to.
@@CalebBerman My fellow human. I appreciate that your message was sent to me in good faith, however, and to be clear I don't want to start a 'debate thread', I should state my position. I was raised Roman Catholic, and believed whole heartedly in my church and faith, as my parents, and parents before them, and parents before them. In other words, I was raised Catholic.
However if I was raised Muslim, then I would be a Muslim. If I were raised Buddhist, then I would be Buddhist. If there were one faith that all should observe, then it's my view that it would be apparent to all from birth; not just to those who were raised in that faith or those who are lucky enough to be exposed to it. Is it better to 'pick any religion' or to live without faith in "a" god? Whichever the god of whichever religion one chooses then becomes The God. And short of one's own opinion, one god cannot be proven other another. Many religions are ancient, many have ancient texts with instructions on how to live one's life. All contain a 'Saviour' figure and many have promise of eternal afterlife. All contain good and bad elements, and all (as Humans do) tend to remember the good elements while conveniently ignoring the bad, or twisting them to seem good.
For that reason, I am without decision on one religion over another. And that gives me peace of mind. For you, having faith in your God and your Saviour of Jesus Christ give you peace and joy, and for that I'm happy for you. So let us live our lives in the realms that make ourselves happy, and proceed together into the future, however on different paths. If they should meet some day; on my road, on your road, or on a completely different road, let's just enjoy each other's company and be happy.
It's amazing how he gathered all that timber and cut it/assembled it all by hand. They had mallets to pound the pieces together. Amazing. I love how great our God is.

*Echo:* _"It's amazing how he gathered all that timber and cut it/assembled it all by hand."_
That's conjecture. We don't know what technology has been lost. The Bible is frustratingly silent on that topic. But the ancient stonework we find, especially in Egypt and Peru, leave little doubt that someone after the flood had some very advanced technology.

It's to bad there isn't a course on "reality", because that's what you need to take.
@@StageMan57 Let's see here. It sounds like you're suggesting that utilizing mental models and structured scenarios is not a useful nor effective exercise for exploring ethical issues.
Suppose we want to explore the ethics of deliberately smashing the window of a drugstore to grab the defibrillator that's displayed there in order to attempt to save the life of someone who is dying of arrhythmia on the sidewalk in front of the store. To follow your line of logic, we can't just think our way through that scenario to decide the ethics of the case. No, we need to wait until we happen to come across someone who has collapsed in front of a closed drugstore with a defibrillator in the display window. Then and only then will we be in a position to decide if smashing that window is right or wrong.
I apologize for the benefit of the doubt I extended to you regarding your level of understanding of things. My bad. It's clear you're gonna need a whole lot more education that I first thought.
Good luck with that.
@@stefanbjarnason251 Stef, it isn't logical to read into a statement or statements a scenario that wasn't implied. Now, let me ask you this. How!... in your logic, did it "sound like" I was making a suggestion?
Since they didn't have electric lights, probably the majority of the vessel was always dark. The animals probably slept most of the time, similar to animals today that hibernate in winter, and their metabolism slowed, as did their need for food and water. Leaving fires burning all the time for light would have been dangerous.
They had lamps and fire to create light I am certain ..
We always believe that we today are much smarter, advanced in technology, and engineering...etc.whilst men in history, especially biblical record, are ignorant and primitive. Noah and his sons no doubt had knowledge of ancient type of batteries, and even the use of low burning oil lamps. They say that archeological finds have located intricate tools that rival those used in modern surgical medicine...in ancient Mesopotamia. Computers in ancient Greece & Rome.
GOD PUT THEM TO SLEEP SO THEY WOULDN'T NEED TO BE FED THEREFORE THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO DEFFICATE DURING THAT YEAR PLUS ON THE ARK. THAT MANY ANIMALS DEFFICATING AND URINATING FOR A YEAR PLUS "NOPE GOD PUT THEM IN A DEEP SLEEP, LIKE HIBERNATION.

Love when people quote from the Bible. It’s the only way to really dive in to the many things the Bible teaches
With God all things are possible
@@ronaldfisher1900 "With God all things are possible"? Surely you don't believe that. Lots of things are impossible.
And if you're tempted to play the "but-God-can-do-anything" card, first consider this:
Can he make a burrito so hot that even he can't eat it? If he can make a burrito so hot that he can't eat it, then he's not all-powerful. And if he can eat it, then he wasn't able to make a burrito too hot for him to eat, meaning he's not all-powerful.
So either of the only two possible outcomes -- either he can eat the burrito or he can't -- demonstrates that he's not all-powerful, which is to say that "all things" are NOT possible with the guy.
Even though there's not so much as a scrap of evidence that the guy exists, believe in him if you must, Ronald. But please, stop with the meaningless platitudes. It makes you sound like you haven't given much thought to this stuff.
Yeah, like slavery and genocide.
Just like Picasso's statues, he was the director. He told his team where everything goes because he designed it. So "he built it."
Now you're making claims without no evidence whatsoever! You're listening to this man who's making up claims and inventing possibilities without any evidence or proof to back up what he's claiming.. Genesis 7 is not the original an oldest flood story it was plagiarized by the Hebrews that wrote it.. The original and oldest is the Epic of Gilgamesh.🤯?
@@donstrong1717 what claim did I make with no evidence? About Picasso? Everyone knows that a lot of his statues were made by teams of people whom he directed.
It really doesn't matter what cubit was used, the Ark would be too small for its requirements. DO SOME MATH yourself. 3 decks at 300 cubits long by 30 cubits wide by 45 cubits high. And remember to reduce available space by hull shape, dimensions of hull materials and materials of the roof, floors, walkways, stairs and ramps, interior walls, living space for each individual (unless you're running on the sardine packed Ark "theory".) AND the 1 cubit opening at the top just below the roof. And then remember that everyone was in the Ark for more than a year, and they had to not only carry enough food and water for that time, BUT there would be no food (or likely any potable water either) when they left the Ark in the 2nd month of Noah's 601st year. They'd have to have seed and cuttings for planting AND enough food to feed everyone until harvest, at least one full growing season. (they also had to have enough to replant all the original habitats of all the animals, and that would need be done in time enough to allow harvest in the first year.) Even that requires that the flood didn't sterilize the soil for years to come - which it would have. All aquatic and microbial life would be gone. The soil would be contaminated with all that "turbulence" that YEC claims happened, AND the land at sea level would have been under more than 12,000 psi for the most part of a year. Use the Royal cubit if you wish, it still doesn't allow sufficient room. AND doesn't account for methane issues either. The first match Mrs. Noah lit to start her cooking fires after about a week would have set off a methane explosion. And that also brings up, there had to be room enough for fuel for any fires and room for torches (how else could Noah read his 1611 KJV after the day's chores were done?)
@@philleprechaun6240 , When you’ve been indoctrinated to believe a myth, the details don’t matter.
Don't want reality to ruin a good story.
When that guy starts discussing the precise length of a cubit, he's trying to generate the appearance of accuracy. It wouldn't matter if the cubit was 18 inches or 20, the Ark would still be too big to build and survive, and still too small to hold every animal.
He has a good point, though, in saying that Noah didn't necessarily do the building with his own hands. Noah could have emptied his bank account, sold his land, and taken all kinds of loans to buy materials and tools, and promised to pay the contractors when the job was done, all knowing the Flood was coming and he'd never have to cough up. But the Bible doesn't say that Noah had any hired helpers. The vid guy's just making an assumption. He should read the Bible literally.
He sets up a straw man by pretending that scoffers think Noah had to go to Australia to get animals. Nobody thinks that. Everybody knows that the animals just showed up - they may be wrong, but that's the prevailing belief. He's just scoring an imaginary point.
But he explains that Australia wasn't that far away, then. He subscribes to Flood Geology, the belief that all the land was altered and the continents moved. The Bible doesn't say that happened - it's all false belief. In fact, the Bible gives the location of the Garden of Eden by referencing rivers that exist today, and it uses the present tense.
The rest of the Bible hardly refers to the Flood at all. It certainly isn't the center of the Christian faith. If Christians would call the story a metaphor, they would be a lot better off.
Basing their religion on a short account of something so bizarre is really bad for them.
Keep your focus on the lessons taught and not literal interpretation and you may not become an atheist.
No, the ark wasn't too big to survive, and no it wasn't too small to hold every kind of animal required.
Your point about not hiring help isn't even valid. Either assumption is equally valid, and they are both assumptions. Noah might have hired help, he might not have. Either way he had plenty of time to build it.
And the rivers that exist today could very well have been named after the historic ones in the garden of eden. They aren't the same rivers just because they have the same names.

I didn't think about how all to mega fauna disappeared. After all that time on the ark and at some point they started hunting these animals. Nimrod the mighty hunter comes to mind and the rest of humankind chased these animals across the world.
One major issue with this fable is what happened to all the fish and marine mammals . If the water remained salty, then all of the freshwater life would die. If the waters became fresh, then all of the ocean life would die. Very few fish or marine animals can live in either environments.
I am sure that our Creator could take care of that.

@@j.hueston4370they were evil sinners…or something like that
If any part of your answer to a question includes magic...
My postulation is it took Noah and others some 120+ years to build the Arc
---- which is backed up by nothing from the bible - except you remembering something entirely different about the "120 years" which was given in the same area of the bible as Noah's tale - but it's a common error: even the graphic comic version of the bible ( The ACTION BIBLE ) makes the same claim along with a bunch of other added bits not found in any translation of a real bible
How much volume would it take just to carry the food to feed the pachyderms for a whole year just saying
I love the Ark Encounter. I did believe the Biblical account, but I can't hear and see enough of it.
Ken Ham has great text and videos of this topic. He adds great validity with scriptural support.
The biblical account of Noah's flood cannot be fully embraced as a possible event taking place on earth, without first understanding the physics involved when said water covered the whole earth and caused all life apart from the boat to perish. The physics involved are embedded in the biblical account for creation... and not truthfully claimed for the world's "scientific" view of evolutionary origins. The physics we observe to date will support only one account for creation of all noncorrupted life, earth, stars, sun and moon; with true and uncorrupted scientific testing by simple experiments. Question is: Does your particular creation view point tell you that the flood was possible by means of understanding how water will always find its level point and fill up its container to the point all life outside the boat did indeed perish as the biblical account claims? ...or does it say it wasn't possible? Remember, The evolution story is believed by most, even as they may believe the biblical account for creation... simply for believing that God created all that exists, while we also give him all credit for creating a false world view of the creation story... -when we say earth is a globe and flying thru space, we also say it evolved from a big bang origin... thus forgetting God's biblical account he provided, as we put our "trust in science", the world view of evolution deemed true and created by Satan and his liars hiding the truth about the biblical account for creation. Study into the Flat Earth and it will blow the lid off your former life, and reveal many if not most of Satan's agendas. Flat earth knowledge is the biblical account, and the key that opens the door to most other hidden truths we live to understand better about our existence by God's own will to make all he created... to be special to him, and reveals we are not created by accident as the evolution world view account puts us as...

So the animals easily got to the ark because there was only one continent, however, post-flood, once all the continents were separate, how did, say, the tuatara get to New Zealand from the Middle East?
Another thing to ponder, if land existed before the flood (including the mountains), and land existed after the flood, where did all the water that covered the land come from to begin with and where did it go after the flood?
Don't see a reference to mountains in the creation account, so it's possible that there weren't many, or any, before the flood, & they were created by the "fountains of the deep" bursting (volcanic eruptions? Which have created mountains). Also, creation account references "waters above" which could be a canopy enveloping the Earth, creating a "greenhouse effect" that came down when the "windows of Heaven" were opened. The waters then would freeze at the poles, evaporate into clouds, & recede into the crevices that the "fountains of the deep" vacated.
The waters that flooded the whole earth came from above the atmosphere and Rocky ready to Earth it was a water can it be around the earth that kept it a greenhouse effect, that's why the South and North Pole used to be tropical. When the waters came coming down it did flooded the whole Earth, in Genesis it does mention mountains, as a matter of fact it said the tallest mountain in the world back then was covered by at least 22 ft of water by the flood. Also the Garden of Eden was surrounded by mountain range.
Why do you think they find sea animals fossils in mountains to this day and that's all around the world
@@nicoperrin1060 There's a dead-obvious explanation for the presence of fossils of shells and other sea creatures all over the place, including the tops of mountains.
Look it up, Nico. Google is your friend.
That said, seeing as you haven't yet taken that simple and obvious step to learn the truth, I'm willing to bet you're blissfully unmotivated in your self-imposed religious ignorance and don't honestly want to know the answer.
And if you're determined to maintain your belief in whatever god you happen to believe in, avoiding the truth is very sensible of you. Developing the skills of critical thinking is antithetical to maintaining belief in a god. That's why there's a significant inverse correlation between education and religiosity.
In other words, the more education one has, the less likely one is to believe in a god, or any of the other fantastical evidence-free claims of this or that religion.
Study after study demonstrates this. For one example that examines the results of over five dozen studies, take a look at "The Relation Between Intelligence and Religiosity: A Meta-Analysis and Some Proposed Explanations," in the peer-reviewed journal, Personality and Social Psychology Review. The authors of this meta-analysis reviewed the results of 63 studies. They found, as usual, that there is a significant negative correlation between intelligence and religiosity (journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/1088868313497266).
The most effective strategy for hanging onto those comforting, evidence-free religious beliefs? Avoid learning the truth about how the world actually works.
@@stefanbjarnason251 it's more of the way around , you obviously believe in evolution and think you're man made up creation story is truth when it's not, truth is what I said,. a lot of so-called scientists an evolutionist make up lies to try to support their Theory, but common sense tells you that nothing can come to existence from nothing. A house can't build itself, a car can't build itself it has to have a creator a maker same thing with everything in this world that's living online and under the sea. No such thing as the Big Bang nothing explosion to order it takes a maker. Only a full fledge fool says there's no God.

You have rebuilt the ark. Take 8 volunteers, the appropriate number of animals and food and lock them up on the ark to prove that it works. That would be creation science.
It would also be horribly unethical toward the animals, unfortunately, since the confined unventilated conditions would almost certainly be lethal. Seeing if eight creationists could shovel poop out of a single window every day for a year without leaving the structure might be a worthwhile experiment, however.
@@scotte4765 So does that mean when noah did it, it was unethical
@@rankepicdino8194 Very unethical on God's part, yes, for forcing Noah into such a horrible situation when God could easily just kill or cure the wicked people separately without ever needing a flood. Fortunately, the story is fiction.
Some things I have trouble understanding are 1) The ark was built on three levels, Gen 6:16: "A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it" so that, one would imagine, all the food for the animals and people would have been stored on the lowest and part of the mid level, unless the top deck is included as a level.
If that "window" did not run around the full upper level of the ark, everything would have died of asphyxiation in a very short while. We have to consider that, under the circumstances, humidity levels would have been very high indeed, so that all the feed would become damp and would have started fermenting. Verse 21: "And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them." Noah could obviously not have taken freshly cut green feed into the ark, because that would have rotted within a very short while, so it would all have had to be desiccated. However, this would have caused it to absorb moisture from the atmosphere, adding extra weight and causing it to deteriorate rather rapidly.
Notice the phrase "ALL the food". Does this mean that the grazers would have had enough food to keep them all occupied all day long, as they spend most of their time eating? What about the carnivores? With only two of every kind of animal, how would Noah and his family have been able to cater to their nutritional needs?
2) Some sort of limit must have been placed upon the reproductive capacity of the rodents and other smaller creatures which can reproduce up to six times a year. Unless they were fed to the carnivores and eaten by Noah, they would have spread and soiled everything by the end of that year. The problem here is that none of these creatures are of a reasonable size to be eaten until they are about six months old, so that they would not have provided any food for the first six months, but being so small, they would not have made a decent meal for any of the middling to larger carnivores.
3) With all that food around, Noah and his family would have been fully occupied 24/7 just trying to keep all the creatures fed. Who would have done the mucking out?
4) With the amount of methane produced by the animals' "exhaust gases", Noah did not dare to light any lanterns lest he blow the ark clean out of the water, so how did they manage to see on the lower levels and how did they remove the gas, which would have killed the animals, so going back to point 1), that window would have been pretty useless, even if it DID run around the entire top deck of the ship. Methane is heavier than air, so it would have tended to migrate to the lower levels, the bottom-most being where the food was kept. Nobody and nothing would have survived more than a few minutes down there, so the food was untouchable. All the animals on the ark would have starved to death as a result.
I wonder if Calvin Smith, or anyone else for that matter, would be able to answer my questions concerning Genesis 1 and 2, because nobody else has been able to do so since I began asking them more than 60 years ago.
I Think your excellent analysis deserves @ least one thumbs up.
All of these objections and their solutions have been dealt with in articles on the answersingenesis website and demonstrated at the ARK ENCOUNTER...
He even said that there was only one continent then. He just won't take science into account at all.
@@calvinangela4348 : So, did they mention that there was a flood story with a boat BEFORE the Noah flood story? That would mean that the Noah story was probably taken or plagiarized from the Epic of Gilgamesh story.
Have you considered that they fasted ? Stress makes animals eat less, therefore producing less of these problems. Maybe even hibernating
The Ark was only meant to float and not go somewhere.
John 13:7 ❣️❣️❣️🙌🙌🙌 Great program! Thank you
"Blessed are those who without seeing have Believed "
Put another way: "Blessed are the Gullible."
@@stefanbjarnason251 The Gullible are more likely to believe something that is "shown" to them that is fake.
@@conflagratus I agree that a mark may be fooled by sleight-of-hand, deceptions, illusions and the like. How gullible that mark may be considered to be would depend to some extent on the quality of the deception and the level of skill of the deceiver.
We can think of deceptive illusions as a type of "evidence" that, by definition, is false and misleading but, depending on the skill of the deceiver, could be very compelling in its misdirection.
But surely we would consider the most gullible to be those susceptible to false beliefs, not due to the skilled presentation of illusory "evidence" by a practiced deceiver, but by no evidence at all beyond mere assurances of truth from some authority figure or unsupported assertions about fantastical events in some book.
The foolish only believe in that which they can see.
“Now, faith is the substance of things to be hoped for, the evidence of things that appear not.” (Hebrews 11:1, DRC)
I just started listening to this, and the thing that gets me the most is how people think that God, for some reason, has to obey the laws of physics. God can do what he wants when he wants no matter if we think it's possible or not.
Amen
Then why did he need Noah to build an ark for all the animals? Why didn't he just move them to another planet for a year or something? Or make them float in the sky for a year until the water receded?
@@wallyman292 I believe the story is much more than just saving them and the animals. It represents how God will save the obedient and destroy the evil in the end. It's a story we can relate to.
God can do whatever he wants, anytime, anywhere? That's amazing.
Ok, then I have a question: If he can do anything he wants, anytime, anywhere, even if it defies the laws of physics, why doesn't he toss a loaf of bread -- or, heck, even a sandwich or two -- to the thousands and thousands of children who die of starvation every day?
Wait! I think I know! "'Because God works in mysterious ways."
What do you say, Carrie? Did I nail it?
God is not an image or a man. God is a spirit within each and every one. So God might even have been female as all humans and mammals and birds are conceived. From eggs.
Your explanation, especially about the animals and post-flood land/continental changes, makes logical sense. Thank you.
God destroyed the world with the flood because the world was so wicked God started to feel bad that he had even made man yes the nephilim Giants back in those days were very prevalent fallen angels meeting with earthly women having children that were part demon part part human trying to corrupt the bloodline of Jesus they didn't succeed but yes the human beings back in those days gave themselves completely over to the fallen Angels to mate with them and to live totally abominable depraved lives as a result and all I could find was eight righteous people thank God he did find those people so they can start again yeah mankind can only go so far and it's wickedness then God's wrath has to fall down he only strives so long but he is very patient but even with God there's an end to his patience and soon the day of the Lord will be here the day of God's wrath it's coming the nephilim are already here again they have Giants in the world right now there will be more of them as in the days of Noah soon God's patience will have reached its end and then the wrath will fall again on humanity but even in the tribulation. People who have never heard about God will be able to turn to God and go into the millennial Kingdom but if the rapture happens and your left behind heaven forbid you are but if you are you will never be able to be saved again it's the age of Grace right now now is the day of salvation everybody who is alive now and they're left behind to go into the tribulation they will receive the mark of the beast you will not be able to be saved at all if you're left behind because most people in America have heard the gospel most people in Europe Australia the ones who have heard now after the rapture happens it will be forever too late for them God will have abandoned them it's good to turn to God right now now is the day of salvation he's not willing that you should perish but you should come to repentance like they say turn or burn
Are you kidding? It makes no sense at all. A flood rising above every high mountain on earth? Mt. Everest is 6 miles high. 6 miles of water on the surface of the earth? That is called a water planet. The effect of all the weight and pressure would grind every tree, plant and grass and building to dust sterilizing the surface. It would be a planet killing event forever changing the planet. All plants would be gone. The water would not drain away in a couple of months and olive trees start growing and Noah planting a vineyard. There is no reservoir available on the planet to store that vast amount of water. We have mapped the deep inside of earth and it shows no such accumulation of water. The flood was local, restricted to the world at the time which was mesopotamia since man had not traveled far from the garden.
Sorry, but the "exotic animal problem" can't be casually dismissed by saying "God just made them come to Noah. Problem solved."
- Koalas are poor swimmers. The reason there are no koalas in Tasmania, just 100 miles from mainland Australia, is because if they could swim the mere 100 miles to get there, they would. Yet to get to Asia would require swimming across more than 900 miles of open ocean.
- It is another 4500 miles from SE Asia to the Middle East. Koalas can walk only about 4 miles per hour and they sleep 20 hours per day. If they walked 2 hours a day, spent two hours looking for food and eating, and slept for 20 hours, it would take them 8 to 10 years to get to the Middle East. Koalas only live for 8 years. They would die before they got there. And there is no food for them along the way. They eat only eucalyptus leaves.
No it doesn’t make any logical sense. There were a lot more than 80 species of dinosaurs. The continents were already split apart by the time humans ever graced this earth, we know that because we find dinosaur fossils on very continent across the globe. We can piece every continent together and trace it back to the mega landmass called Pangea.
After the cataclysmic event that killed the dinosaurs, plants and blocked out the sun for many years, there were other hazardous happenings going on from that major event that made life above water pretty much impossible. Like the fact oxygen levels were blocked out by radiation and methane.
Every animal that was saved by Noah on the ark comes from an ancestor from after the Jurassic period. The Cretaceous began 145.0 million years ago and ended 66 million years ago; it followed the Jurassic Period and was succeeded by the Paleogene period. Humans come from an ancestor from the paleo period. Pretty much 99.9% of animals today are derived from and ancestor from the Cretaceous period. The only animals we have on earth that were related to dinosaurs that Noah would have encountered are turtles and alligators/crocodiles or some types of fish like whales and stuff. The program is decent but it is not historically accurate. I’m a catholic so of course I believe in Noah’s ark but I disagree with the “logic” being used to present it here.
I'm confident in saying that your understanding of what constitutes "logic" is fatally flawed.
please explain where all the trees that were cut came from, and tell us where there is evidence of that location?
Where is the pitch ?
It was pitched inside and out.
What an amazing orator this gentleman is. Such clear and concise speech with no filler words, pauses, or stammers. Very well laid out point of view. 👍👍
He has to talk like that, like the average politician, since he is putting a pretty bow on top of a garbage can and expecting us to applaud and vote for it. But what is he actually saying? He is cherry picking only those defects in the Noah story that he has contrived answers for, and coming up with one barely plausible theory after another, none of which can be tested, so he can't be proven wrong. Example: Today the Memphis Zoo needs 125 employees for just 500 species out of the millions of species on the planet. Noah's family was 10. Is it possible for just ten people to run a floating zoo that is totally self contained and can't re-supply their stores, yet provide thousands of meals a day including fresh meat and plant matter, provide clean water for them all, clean them and the mess on the floor, regulate the temperatures for penguins and polar bears to lizards and alligators, provide them all with sunlight and exercise, and keep them all healthy without a team of veterinarians providing medicines and operating rooms - for one entire year? I vote no.
Yes, and I can deliver just as good of a speech when it is scripted! (also, without word fillers and stammering.)🙄
@@Adrian-lv2mi Not until the 1800's were professionals able to build a ship the size of the ark, and it required several manually operated bilge pumps to keep it from taking on ocean water/rain and sinking. The replica ark Ken Ham built used over 1,000 workers, required tons, literally, of iron supports to meet code requirements to make it safe, modern electric hand tools for cutting, drilling and fastening not to mention huge hydraulic construction equipment like cranes and excavators too.... even though it will never touch a drop of sea water. Clearaly its a scam calculated to fleece the very sheep its intending to impress with the mythical journey.
@@Adrian-lv2mi Mr pedantic here. There were not 10 people on the ark. It was Noah and his wife, his three sons and their wives so just 8 in total, not 10. So, even if the concept of 10 people caring for all these animals for a year wasn't ridiculous enough with 10 people it becomes even more so (if that were possible) with just 8.
@@Satanica Do not miss the point of why the ark was built. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
There have been 4 rebuilt in the last 20Y…. And surprisingly not one of the major players for the one in KY(USA) well his last name is Ham(coincidence, I think not)
Cool leather vest! Where'd you get it?
Question I've never found an answer to Is, who financed the ark?. How much did it cost to build and where did all that money come from?.
I love the depth of thought required to begin to comprehend this one story alone!
No.....only minor depth of thought is required to understand in no way shape or form could the event actually EVER happened....I came to that logical conclusion at the age of 6 when I successfully debated my Sunday school teacher
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful. - Seneca
The story of Noah was plagiarized from Sumerian legend much older then the Hebrews. Read the story of Gilgamesh. Found on ancient clay tablets in Iraq. Plenty of documentation available.
The fact is Noah's name was not Noah. He was not Jewish or Hebrew. And the story is a work of fiction.
Finally someone says what I've been thinking.. People were smarter back then..
Yep, rocket ships, computers, universities, all lost in the flood.
@@Tideandrover This has NOTHING to do with smart, dumb, thickheaded,. or intelligent. GOD gave him the design. Noah was obedient and that's all God asks of His kids. Learn what He is like and you will obey out of love of Him.
The idea that the human genome is degrading and that a better constellation of genes back then actually existed to make Noah and Friends way smarter - that idea is an ad hoc work-around to explain away the silliness of this video's claim. "If 2 guys working today can put up a house ...". 2 guys can b/c they go to Home Depot and haul studs and beams in their F250. They use nail guns and power saws with extension cords and battery packs. They don't cut timber and mill logs. What they buy is supplied by a manufacturing and distribution system that dwarfs what we had 50 years ago, never mind pre-Sumerian days. Our host Calvin Smith should try to put up a modern stud and beam house with Noah's techniques to see how long that would take, then extrapolate to a 500 foot-long ark.
Step One: Chop down an entire forest. Step Two: Load tree trunks onto logging trucks ... oh, whoops!
@@mablack8813
Kind of crappy design, stupid thing wouldn't float.
I have always wondered about there being servicers besides Noahs family for them to be able to re populate .
does the part about Noah being 500 years old when he built the ark bother anyone?
No, not really. It doesn't bother me, either, that Harry Potter can do magic. Or that Hercule Poirot always gets his man.

People lived up to 900 years in the beginning when their genome was not yet corrupted as we have. Mankind's genome in popular level decays quickly and we won't survive long anymore. Perhaps a few hundred years.
