I've seen so many videos of atheists marveling over the Egyptian pyramids and how advanced their civilization must have been to build them, but those same people say it's ridiculous to believe Noah could have built the ark.
do di do di do di do di do di dooooo
That's because there are actual pyramids in existence. You can see them in Egypt. Same with Machu Picchu, Stonehenge or any number of ancient wonders. There is no ark for anyone to see, and there never was.

What about the finding of the late great nurse

🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
@@donlimoncelli6108 I guess you didn't follow the argument. What does finding it have to do with the possibility of it being built? The argument was people saying something like that couldn't be built at that time...but yea, those are all STRUCTURES made of stone, so you'd expect them to still be there. Stone doesn't rot and decay the way wood does.
@@bluebucket822 The argument is as follows: "People marvel over how the pyramids were built by ancients but refuse to believe Noah built an ark."
My reply is: We can go to Egypt and see the pyramids and as we see them, we can marvel over how such a massive edifice could have been built. Can we go somewhere to see an ark and perhaps marvel over it? No.
The OP also brings in a red herring and says, "Atheists marvel over ancient things like the pyramids." By saying that, he is equating something tangible (the pyramids) with something that does not have a shred of evidence for it ever having existed. Disbelieving in Noah having built an ark does not depend on faith, as if "atheists would believe if only they had enough faith." No, disbelieving in Noah and his boat depends on there being zero evidence for their existence, unlike the pyramids.
As a builder it is common for people to say we built a house rather than we had a house built
Living here in the UK and having travelled to most of Europe and Israel I have seen buildings, temples and constructions easily 2000 years old and older. I have marvelled at the craftsmanship and intelligence of this ancients knowing how difficult it would be to recreate these things today and am left in no doubt that the ancients could easily have made wondrous things that we can’t imagine.
What does your comment prove 🤷♂️. Are you a believer in this myth. I also watch ancient aliens. Science can’t explain how some of these structures were built. Does that prove aliens built these structures or do you say we don’t know.
@@diddsdaddiddsdad6865 if you would quiet your mind, he would reveal himself to you in supernatural ways, like miracles or in dreams, but you think only of yourself.
@@T.R.R.Jolkien supernatural, miracles, dreams. You really sound like you have it together,🤭🤪🤪🤣
@@diddsdaddiddsdad6865 that’s your definition?
@@T.R.R.Jolkien Why would you rely on any of the things that you say for your beliefs. Why don’t you believe things that can be proven 🤷♂️. You have chosen one of many religions to follow. They can’t all be right but they can all be wrong. I remember what this atheist said once and it stuck in my mind ,she said the difference between me and your god is that if I was all powerful and I could stop something from happening I would. Just think about that. Think about parents that are religious and watching their children dying of cancer. Don’t you think they are praying for a miracle 🤔. Do you think a god is listening or is he just being mysterious.
I'm always glad to see just how many comments.thete are from trolls. It reminds me of Jesus when He said: "Seek me and you will find me".
They also cannot comprehend that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Blessings to all.
So everyone with a different opinion than you as a troll? And every scientist who clarifies it’s not possible to have had, the appropriate number of animals is a troll? And every person who asked how kangaroos hopped all the way to Australia without leaving a single remain is a troll.
And every historian who clarifies that there were civilizations with written history that existed throughout the period the grade flood was supposed to have happened as a troll?
It sounds like you are not able to receive new information and change your beliefs. If that’s true, I would much rather be a troll than that.
…there is no evidence of a global flood. Flooding leaves behind very distinctive evidence. It never happened.
Faith is just another word for delusion. I prefer actual evidence. So I guess I must be a troll??
@@JohnsAircraftWalkarounds
In general, a lot of actual evidence turns out to be false over a period of time. The Theory of Evolution is a prime example of this. Good luck with that. Cheers.
false over time.
But you won't find me on the ark! Fools.
One of the primary arguments that I have about depictions of the ark is that it is always portrayed as a boat, but God didn't tell Noah to build a boat, He told him to build an "ark," and the word "ark" means a "box."
This shouldn't be a problem for you, any "box" that contains living creatures and floats on water is by definition a boat.
Yes...and an ark with a single small window....which means every human within the ark would have died of gas poisoning from those animals' waste material....
@@heels-villeshoerepairs8613
Facepalm... Technically, yes. My point was that I doubt that it was built with a pointed bow and stern, a keel, and other components particular to boats, with the exception of water-proofing.
@@julianmarsh8384
Not at all. AIG actually has a neat article on how venting could have worked.
@@lawrencestanley8989 This is the problem with this story....'this MIGHT be how this or that was done...' just doesn't add up.
As Pastor Joe Foche always says, "'In the beginning, God. . .' If you can get past that, the rest is easy!"
Yes, if you can accept first sentence as true without having any actual evidence, then you will swallow any crap you get.
Yeah, the famous 'leap of faith'. It's called 'faith' for a reason.
Love listening to Joe. He brings Genesis to life. His mixture of spiritual accompanied by science is a real eye opener. I've listened to his verse by verse all the way through from Genesis to Revelation at least 4 times. I learn something I missed earlier everytime.
Where did God come from and what existed before God? Did God come from nothing, or something. Was God created , or was he the product of evolution. Was there an even greater God who created your God? Just accepting God and the word of the Bible is easy but it is also a cop out. Man has an enquiring brain and seeks the truth through science.
@@philiprobinson2011
You obviously have no comprehension of the concept of eternity or you wouldn't ask that. I'm not supposed to debate the existence of God. The fool says there is no God. Also, Do not answer a fool in his folly. So.....
I really enjoyed this video. It covered a lot of the history of the Ark, as well as answered sceptics questions. I would suggest however, leaving out the background music as it distracts from the speaker, and makes listening very difficult.
It didn’t cover the history it tried to fill in some gaps to try and explain the unexplainable . It was presented by a condescending t“@t.
Captions help pick up words said covered by music, and background noises, even in those with the heaviest of accents. FYI: "sceptics" is a stinky way of spelling "skeptics." 😎🤗😉
Sceptic is the same as skeptic. It just depends on whether you are British or American.
Septic is the stinky word you're thinking of.
It is not history,it is myth!
some people think it was like a few weekends project, but it took years. (edit: the area of scripture shows how much geography has changed is the four rivers that branched from [Eden, Tigris, Euphrates, Pishon, and Gishon] in Genesis 2 and compare that today where the two known rivers are, the Tigris and Euphrates) look at some of histories heaviest rainfalls and then work that out for even a week which wouldn't be unrealistic by todays standards that we've seen
Hey dax, if every proto Greek civilization was wiped out in the flood, then why do we use the Greek names for the Tigris and Euphrates rivers? The Hebrews already had named them: the Tigris was called the Hiddekel, the Euphrates was called the Perat. How the hell can you get Greek names for anything if Noah and his ilk didn't speak Greek? The Greeks just weren't around back then.
@@JB-yb4wn The geeks came around 2000-3000 years after Noah's arc. Noahs arc was around 5000 BC and the earliest Greek civilization was around 2200 BC. I don't understand why you have a problem with the rivers names being greek though so you gotta elaborate.
@@rushzei
FFS there were no civilizations around in 5000 BCE, Mesopotamian civilization didn't start until about 4000 BCE, Egyptians, 3000 BCE, Indus Valley 2500 BCE. The idiots who made this video say that the flood occurred in 2348 BCE, so we go from there, OK?
The first Greek culture were the Minoans who were around the same time as the Egyptians, about 2800 BCE.
So, braintrust, here is how it works. The Minoans were the first Greek civilization, they lived on Crete. You wipe them out, you wipe out the Greek language, the only survivors of the laughable flood were 8 Jews who already had a name for the Tigris and Euphrates river. We should know those rivers by their Hebrew names, not by their Greek names because there are no Greeks around, no Greek language.
You guys ever Google stuff up? Or do you like being ignorant?
@daxconnell7661, Yes that's a good argument. In fact, the Middle East does seem to be the general area of Eden going simply by the genetic markers of how humankind spread across the Earth from that general area. Check out the book "Traced" by Dr. N.Jeanson. Also it was not merely rain that caused the flood but, the great fountains or water reservoirs of the deep, underground were broken up and spewed forth into the atmosphere. Rain cannot occur without a tiny drop of dust for the water molecules to form around. There was volcanic activity and dirt/smoke released into the air, possibly produced by meteors or a huge earthwide earthquake. The resulting dust and heavy tropical vapor in the air turned into rain. Between the underground water and the water coming down from the sky every hill was covered. The mountains such as the Alps or the Rockies formed as a result of tectonic upheaval and magma spread. If you look at the topography under the oceans you can see where the earth literally was split apart. It was a truly cataclysmic event. Amazing the human race and the animal ancestors survived at all. The Ark was massive and masterfully engineered by God.

"...the love of most will grow cold." People don't wanna listen and heed the warnings, exactly like the people of Noah. Love of money, fame, and self interest are more important than the possibility of living in hell. Well, to each his own. I believe.
THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "is a great last day that He will save man"
(God clarity about, "Not everyone who calls me, Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only those who obey the will of my Father in heaven." Mat. 7:21-23)
Almighty God said
TRUE ACCEPTANCE of GOD REQUIRES your DEVOTION and TESTIMONY, YOU have in your THOUGHTS, EXPRESSIONS and ACTIONS the REALITY of the TRUTH and YOU LIVE IT. Let's look at what the Lord Jesus said, "MANY WILL SAY to ME in that DAY, LORD, LORD, DID WE NOT PROPHESY in YOUR NAME, and in YOUR NAME CAST OUT DEMONS, and in YOUR NAME WE DID MANY MIGHTY WORKS? and IF SO I WILL TELL THEM, WHEN I DON'T KNOW YOU. GET AWAY FROM ME, YOU WORKERS on INJUSTICE, "
The true acceptance of God, God's scrutiny is that He CORRECTS YOUR HEART. 🙏
THOSE who are CAPABLE of PRACTICING the TRUTH and CAN ACCEPT GOD'S SCRUTINY of DOING THINGS. When you ACCEPT GOD'S SCRUTINY, YOU are CORRECTED YOUR HEART. ☀️
If you only do things for others to see and do not accept God's scrutiny, then do you still have God in your heart?
A PERSON LIKE THIS HAS NO RESPECT TO GOD. DON'T DO THINGS FOR YOURSELF AND NEVER CONSIDER YOUR OWN INTERESTS, DON'T THINK OF YOUR OWN CONDITION,
FAME, OR REPUTATION.
Don't even consider people's interests.
You have to think of the interests of God's house first, and put those first. ☀️
YOU must CONSIDER the WILL of GOD and BEGIN by MEDITATING WHETHER you have been PURE or NOT in FULFILLING your DUTY, whether YOU have DONE your BEST to be HONEST, done your BEST to FULFILL your RESPONSIBILITIES, and GIVEN your ALL, as well as whether or not you have been MINDFUL of your DUTY and the WORK of GOD'S HOUSE .
YOU NEED to CONSIDER these THINGS. THINK of THESE THINGS, and IT WILL BE MORE EASY to PERFORM YOUR DUTY WHEN YOUR DUTY is in ORDER. ☀️
If your ability is weak, your experience is shallow, or you are not skilled in your professional tasks, then there may be some mistakes or deficiencies in your work, and the results may not be very good----but you have poured that is your full effort. WHEN YOU DON'T THINK of YOUR SELFISH DESIRES CONSIDER YOUR SELF-INTEREST in THINGS that
YOU DO, and INSTEAD GIVE CONSTANT CONSIDERATION to the WORK of the HOUSE of GOD, HAVING its INTERESTS in MIND, and PERFORMING YOUR DUTY WELL, YOU WILL EARN, THEN, of GOOD WORKS before GOD.
The PEOPLE who PERFORM these GOOD WORKS are THOSE WHO own TRUE REALITY, THEREFORE, THEY HAVE TESTIMONY, if YOU ALWAYS LIVE ACCORDING to the FLESH, YOU are ALWAYS GIVEN---SATISFY YOUR SELFISH DESIRES, then YOU HAVE NO REALITY LIFE such PEOPLE, this is the MARK THAT WILL BRING SHAME to GOD. ☀️
You say, "I'm not doing anything, how can I bring shame to God?"
In your THOUGHTS and IDEAS, in the INTENTIONS, GOALS and MOTIVES BEHIND your ACTIONS, and in the CONSEQUENCES of what you HAVE DONE----in EVERY WAY you GIVE--you SATISFY SATAN, his HUMOR, and LETTING it get BAD INFORMATION ABOUT YOU. 😪
YOU ARE FAR FROM THE TESTIMONY YOU SHOULD HAVE AS A CHRISTIAN.
YOU are BLASPHEMING GOD'S NAME in EVERY THING and YOU HAVE NO TRUE TESTIMONY. ☀️
DOES GOD REMEMBER THINGS YOU HAVE DONE?
FINALLY, WHAT CONCLUSION is FORMED of GOD ABOUT YOUR ACTIONS and ROLE YOU HAVE PLAYED?
SHOULDN'T that HAVE an OUTPUT, SOME KIND of STATEMENT?
In the BIBLE, the LORD JESUS says, "Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name cast out demons, and in your name do we many mighty works?
And then I will reveal to them, When did I not recognize you? Depart from Me, you workers of iniquity, " 😪
WHY SAID the LORD JESUS?
WHY BECAME a DOOR of EVIL those WHO HEAL the SICK and CAST OUT DEMONS in the NAME of the LORD, those WHO TRAVEL to PREACH in the NAME of the LORD?
Are they the ones who don't believe in God?
THEY ALL BELIEVE and OBEY GOD. They ALSO AVOID THINGS for GOD, SPEND THEMSELVES for GOD, and FULFILL THEIR DUTY. ☀️
HOWEVER, in the PERFORMANCE of their DUTY, they LACKED DEVOTION and TESTIMONY, so it ENDED up DOING EVIL.
THIS is WHY the LORD JESUS says, "GET AWAY FROM ME, YOU WRITER OF INJURY."
What is the standard by which a person's actions are judged as good or bad?
It DEPENDS on WHETHER or NOT YOU HAVE, in YOUR THOUGHTS, EXPRESSIONS, and ACTIONS, the TESTIMONY of the PERFORMANCE of TRUTH and LIVING TRUE REALITY.
If you don't have this reality or you don't live it, no doubt you are a bad person.
WHAT DOES GOD THINK of BAD PEOPLE?
YOUR THOUGHTS and ACTIONS do NOT BEAR WITNESS to GOD, nor DO they HUMILIATE or DEFEAT SATAN, INSTEAD, they HUMILIATE GOD, and FULL of MARKS that DISHONOR GOD. YOU are NOT WITNESSING for GOD, YOU are NOT SPENDING YOURSELF for GOD, NOR are YOU FULFILLING YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES and OBLIGATIONS to GOD, INSTEAD, YOU are ACTING for YOUR OWN WELLNESS.
What does the " FOR YOUR OWN SANE?" for SATAN. 😪
THEREFORE, at the LATEST, GOD WILL SAY, "Depart from Me, you workers of iniquity."
In the EYES of GOD, YOU HAVE NOT DONE GOOD WORKS, INSTEAD, YOUR BEHAVIOR has BEEN BAD. 😪
GOD WILL NOT REWARD YOU and WILL NOT REMEMBER YOU. Isn't it completely pointless? 😪
For EACH ONE of YOU WHO is FULFILLING your DUTY, NO MATTER how DEEPLY you UNDERSTAND the TRUTH, IF you WANT to ENTER the TRUE REALITY, the SIMPLEST WAY to DO it is to THINK of the INTERESTS of GOD'S HOUSEHOLD in EVERYTHING you DO, and LET GO of your SELFISH DESIRES, INDIVIDUAL GOALS, MOTIVES, HONOR, and STATUS. PUT the INTERESTS of the HOUSE of GOD FIRST---this is the
LEAST YOU SHOULD DO. ☀️🙏
If a person performing his duty cannot do this, how can it be said that he has performed his duty?
It is NOT PERFORMANCE of the PERSON in HIS DUTIES. YOU MUST FIRST CONSIDER the INTERESTS of GOD'S LIFE, CONSIDER His WORK, and PUT these THINGS FIRST,
AFTER that, ONLY then YOU can THINK ABOUT the STABILITY of YOUR STATUS or WHAT OTHERS THINK of YOU. Don't you feel a little more rushed when you break it down into these steps and make some compromises.
If you do this for a while, you will feel that it is not difficult to please God. In addition to that, if you are able to fulfill responsibilities, fulfill your obligations and duties, put aside your selfish desires, put aside your own goals and motives, you have consideration for God's will, and you put the interests and of His household, then after experiencing it for a while, you will feel that this lifestyle is good.
It is LIVING FRANKLY and HONESTLY, WITHOUT BECOMING a MEAN and USELESS PERSON, and LIVING JUSTLY and HONORABLY RATHER than BEING NARROW-MINDED or SAVAGE.
You FEEL this is HOW a PERSON SHOULD LIVE and ACT. ☀️ GRADUALLY, the DESIRE in YOUR HEART to SATISFY YOUR OWN INTERESTS WILL BE REDUCED. "give your true heart to God, and you will attain the truth." 🙏☀️

I always wonder about Jesus simply saying "Follow Me", and then the apostles one by one would drop everything and followed him. I found this amazing article and I was balling my eyes out, because it gave me a whole new appreciation for His love for us. 😥😇😥💕
It's called: "MAY YOU BE COVERED WITH THE DUST OF YOUR RABBI"
In the New Testament a Rabbi would call a new disciple by saying, “Follow Me,” it meant from that time forward their life would change drastically as they would be dead to their old life and alive to their new life. They would literally leave everything they knew and begin to follow their new teacher.
~If you were called to follow a Rabbi, you would be taking their set of rules and their teaching upon you, with the idea that one day you would perpetuate their ideas to future generations. A Rabbi’s set of teachings in that day was called their “yoke.” This is what Jesus was talking about when he said, “Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for … For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light” (Matthew 11:28-30). The Rabbis of Jesus’ day put a heavy yoke loaded with burdens on men and did not help to lift them.
~Around the age of 14 or 15 years old, the young men would finish their schooling and the Rabbis would go to these schools and question these young men. They would then choose the best of the best to be their disciples and would call them using the same phrase that Jesus used, “Follow Me.” The Rabbi wanted to find out if you had what it takes to spread his yoke. The new disciple would then leave his hometown and everything he knew, and would follow him everywhere, giving his life to be exactly like his Rabbi. The student would follow the Rabbi and literally imitate him in every way, especially his teaching and mannerisms.
~As one would leave and begin to follow, others would say to him, “May you be covered with the dust of your Rabbi.” The students followed him so closely that the dust from the road that came from the feet of the Rabbi would cover the disciple. That should be the desire of every disciple of Christ, to walk so close to him that we would be covered with his dust.
~If a young man was rejected by the Rabbi, he would say to him, “Go home, have children, and pray that they may become a Rabbi. Go home and ply your trade (go home and learn the family business).”
~Matthew 4:18-22 describes Jesus calling four of his disciples to follow him, “And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
~(Why were these men fisherman, because they were not chosen to be a potential Rabbi; they were plying their trade.) And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
~Jesus calling these young men was just the same as saying, “I believe you can be like me and I believe you have potential, you have what it takes. I believe God can use you.” This was one of the greatest privileges in their culture.
~Imagine you were on the shore when this scene unfolds. Jesus walks by and calls James and John, the sons of Zebedee, they drop everything and immediately begin to follow Jesus. I would have thought that their father would have said, “… you kids now a days, running off, leaving me with all this work, where do you think you’re going.” Nothing like that was spoken. I imagine that Zebedee ran home and said something like this, “The boys aren’t with me mom, a Rabbi, Jesus of Nazareth, came along and called our boys, and he thinks that they have what it takes to be a Rabbi someday.” Maybe the next morning, he sees the usual men preparing for the day’s work that is ahead of them and he can’t wait to brag on his sons. I assure you that this became the talk of the town, Zebedee’s family stock soared that day, and this is what every father dreamed of for his son.
~I often wondered why Peter would get out of a perfectly good boat in the middle of a storm. His Teacher was not in the boat and he wanted to be just like him, so he stepped out and walked on the water. Peter would rather be surrounded by the waves and be with Jesus than to be in a safe boat without him. Peter wanted to be covered with the dust of his Rabbi, to follow Him. What Jesus did, Peter wanted to do, where Jesus was, Peter wanted to be.
May you be covered with the dust of your Rabbi!
~I was just thinking about how Jesus washed His dust off of the feet of his disciples. They were dirty, because they followed so closely behind Him. It was now time for them to step up, and have the world follow what they have to say about Jesus! Yet Judas was covered in that same dust, but he decided to betray him like billions of so-called Christians today that do not obey Jesus, but are still choosing to obey their flesh!
Written by Pastor Tim Bartee in Sidney.
I was in church for 50 years and I never read my Bible and then 5.5 years ago I almost killed myself, and then Lord reminded me that it only takes 1 Day to Listen to the dramatized New Testament Bible. Ever since then I've been reading/listening to my Bible cover to cover every single month.. While I drive, walk, work, clean, bathe... So who needs TV or social media when we've got The Word of God that sets us free. I suddenly had a radical conversion and surrendered my ENTIRE life to Christ...after I read 1st JOHN 3:9-10, it Absolutely scared me too the core and I stopped making excuses for my sin. I was kidnapped for sex trafficking the very day that I ran away from home after my mom had murdered my twin baby sisters she said she was going to murder me. After God saved my soul that day, Now I truly love God with all my heart, all my mind, all my sou, andl all my strength. He healed my Mind Body Soul and Spirit.. Ever since then I've never experienced anger, fear, unforgiveness, guilt, shame, rejection, bitter, lustful thoughts, loneliness, worry/stress, lying, gossip, etc 🎉 I can't believe that I used to think I was Born Again, not even close, but more like a Foolish Virgin. When I go out and evangelist I just ask people to Push Play and let the TRUTH set you free!!!

I understand theirs a book that contains over 350 flood stories from different civilizations all over the earth. And the Chinese written word for a boat looks like a boat. The Chinese written word for a ship is a boat with eight people on it.
One thing AIG completely ignores in their ark encounter? The fact that Noah was commanded to take 7 of the CLEAN ANIMALS... THE Food animals, and TWO of the other unclean.
The food animals? Do you mean animals to feed to other animals? All animals were vegetarian. You didn't get very far in the text of the Bible. Peace
The clean ones weren't "food" yet because everyone ate "the herb." They we're sacrificial animals.
@@saltyolbroad2962 Didn't Jews used to sacrifice live children to Moloch?
Can you please name the other 3 because we believe he loaded the ark’s with 4 animals which his life relies upon
(Sheep got cow camel ) 2pairs
@@samjud2411 You misunderstand. God gave Noah seven of each kind of clean animals. The text never reveals which animals were clean. Grace
The whole two of every animal kind of throws you off, especially considering there were more species of animals alive than than there are now, but there are flood stories all over the world on every continent so that definitely speaks to something
There are more species now than there were kinds of animals on the Ark, but less kinds of animals left today than were on the Ark. Kinds does not equate to species...
Don't confuse 'kind' with species. He would only need 2 equines, not 2 donkeys, 2 mules, 2 horses, 2 zebras. Same with big cat-maybe it was the lion, from them the tigers, jaguars, cougars came about. It's not hard to fathom at all.
@@e.witover4222 but then all those other species all go extinct
@@magicpyroninjayeah and new onea re-emerge
@@magicpyroninja Correct, but the ones needed to re-populate the Earth were saved. And from their DNA species from the 'kind's were born according to their climate, etc.. Plus if you read Genesis 6:4 about the giants, they corrupted the beasts too, hence the hybrids of legends. Perhaps those were the ones left to drown-abominations.
The toughest question is "where did the poop from all of the animals in a sealed vessel go?"
if you believe in GOD you don't want to ask a question about it, don't you think GOD could take care of that
How difficult would it have been to just muck out the stalls and toss it overboard? Not even a mildly tough question.
All the Christian ate it,that's y there full of shit..haaaa haaa haaa
@@ort8410 It's only "not even a mildly tough question" if you are too incredibly lazy to think about the logistics. I suggest you think just a LITTLE harder, then come back and reassess your opinion. Here's a couple of facts to help you along:
1. There were a maximum of 8 people on the ark for an entire year.
2. Every single species of animal was also on the ark, many with very specific dietary/care requirements if they were to survive the conditions on board.
3. According to the bible, the ark had ONE window.
4. One pair of elephants (male and female) produces roughly 100 tonnes of excrement per year.
So do some maths, and let me know how difficult the task would be based on your calculations. Or of course you could simply admit you're too lazy to bother with actual facts and would rather entertain a fantasy that is not remotely concordant with reality.

Its got me thinking about the Grand Canyon, I remember a documentary talking about how the erosion of sediment did not occur over “millions” of years, that it happened in a very rapid manner. I got the chance to see the Grand Canyon in person and pictures do not do it justice. It was a very humbling experience as it threw my depth perception out the window.
But after watching this with the great flood makes me wonder how powerful the water must have been carve out the Grand Canyon. And then it reminds me yet again we serve a mighty God!
Or during the flood event there were massive electrical discharges that tore out huge sections of the earth. Look at the GC from satellite images and compare them to electrical discharge images. This effect was created in a lab with astonishing results. The erosion theory falls apart rather quickly when you look at the observable facts. There is a river that flows through my home town. While hiking along the river bank you can see rock formations, they are perpendicular to the flow of the water. This river is depicted in ancient maps so its not something man made. So its been flowing for a very very very long time yet the rock formations are sharped edge stone with no indication of erosion. There is another area, the ridge road. It has a body of water on each side with a 100ft ridge in the middle. They say the glaciers carved it out. Yet on each end it stops, so where did the glacier go. It was most likely during the event the electrical winds blew sediment over the earth and the oppsosing electrical field attracted the charged particles collecting on this ridge. Thing of sand and gravel pits. They tell you glaciers ground up the material. Thats bull. It was the charged wind and sediment that collected in these areas. In many places you can see the sediment layers as the material was blown around during these biblical storms.
Actually China in the 1300's & early 1400's did build ships of the size of the ark (even before that but the previous ones were river going vessels for war)... but they did use massive bamboo. When the sea disaster struck and destroyed the Chinese world exploration & tribute fleer, that event caused the priests to tell the rulers to isolate from the outer kingdoms of the world, the remaining ships were destroyed and were never built again.
Probably a lot of big boats even Vikings found the way to America's first
No they did not, sorry. The largest wooden boat in history was the Wyoming, built in Maine to run coal. It floundered and sank after 11 years of sporadic service in which the pumps had to be run constantly
No they never as is physically impossible for a ship made of wood to work mechanically and with physical laws, Noah`s arc has been debunked so many times it is not funny , My peoples record of last sea level rise is on complete opposite in to both Gilgamesh and christianity.
My peoples record of the flood has been verified bye marine geologists, where is the scientific verification for a global flood.
@@richardwarfordjr.5622 they had tiny ships not big ones
Why do you people try to prove the impossible using pseudoscience when you have a magic god that could just click his magical fingers and place every animal and plant on earth in a second.
Is there anything in Genesis about what the land was like after the waters receded? It sounds like a pole shift and crustal displacement.
did you know the poles do change direction and negative becomes positive and vice versa. This fact would account for the water moving due to the electrical magnetism shift of the poles.
@@wayne3093 And the last time it flipped was almost 800.000 years ago.
@@wayne3093 , Why would the magnetic poles have anything to do with water moving?
Sandy,
You can see the scar and the matching contours on google earth.
It’s quite precise.
The Bible doesn’t give many clues about the earth after the Flood, but some basic physics can help clarify some things.
There was almost certainly a global wobble from the land masses moving over 2000 miles from their original location.
@@Minifliek That’s 794,000 years older then these clowns 🤡 think this planet is 🤣.
Genisis6 says they were on the boat for 10 months. Where did they store all the food necessary to keep all those animals alive all that time, and how did the animals survive afterward until food sources returned from the 3/4 of a year under water?
Maybe they were put into some type of suspended animation. We just don’t have any facts.
@@billpurves6297 We have enough fact that plainly says a large amount of that book is fantasy. Parts of history were interjected with false statements and fabrications for whatever reason. Thoth is closer to a God than the mythical being people are taught to believe.
Its crazy how much Christians like me have to explain everything with science when you literally have God watching over them but I think it is explainable there were probably only a few animals because most animals we see came from the originals which would subtract a huge margin
@@Saintpaul752 That could be a theory that explains one aspect of the huge lie. How did the animals either get from other continents before the boat ride, or to other continents, with separate lineage between the locations? How did so many animals magically appear on the horizon in the few thousand years since the boat ride if that was the case? The Great Magician is popping out new animals every couple years? With close but decidedly different dna lines to animals in other locations? There are hundreds of serious questions that would come up with that thought process. And when you add up all those questions in makes almost zero sense. Except magic.
@@Saintpaul752 There is likely more physical evidence supporting evolution than any other scientific idea, and you complain that we want evidence to support you idea. What are "original" animals. Also, where do you get the genetic diversity needed for the "non-originals" to come from? This channel doesn't believe in evolution, so please also explain how that would have happened.

This was well put together, but I didn't hear any answers to the questions he said that skeptics would have. Yes, how did all the animals and living creatures fit in the ship? He said it was 500 plus feet by 85 ft by 51 ft? Or somewhere around there. How many animals can fit in that, and what did the carnivores eat? You know, like the lions and the T-Rex? Where did the animals go to the bathroom during this year? Also, with a pair of every single creature or species sitting inside, did they not move for a year? He said the Ark was about the size of a midsized cargo ship, but a midsized cargo ship is filled up with cargo from one small place transporting to another. During the year journey, did the animals not reproduce? If every living thing on land died, then there was no vegetation. What did the plant eating animals eat when they got off the boat? When the meat eaters got hungry and ate a cow or a chicken, wouldn't they be effectively wiping out an entire species? I'm confused. Can you please answer these questions I have? I would love to understand, but I can not just believe it because someone wrote it in a book. I would honestly love to be educated on this and find common ground. Thank you for your video and time.
They can't answer any questions because it didn't happen.
None of it makes any logical sense if you ask questions and think about it.

I'm not saying that there can't be some type of "God". There probably is even from a scientific stand point.
My point is, most of the Bible stories are clearly wrong and made up.
Like Zeus, or and other God stories.
Science proves they are wrong.
We evolved and the earth is over 5 billion years old. That's a fact.
So start there.
Not that many life forms were on the arc and the really big ones were small juveniles. These would have been the prehistoric ancestors of all animals today. For example a pair of grey wolves from which all dogs descended from. The many species around today were not around then. Back then people and animals were vegetarians so a significant part of the arc was for storing hay, grasses, etc for the animals. A smaller area was for the human food like beans, lentils, grains, dried vegetables and fruits. In cold countries cows don't leave the barn for half the year but they still survive. Noah and the seven others were very busy taking care of all the animals. This all is common sense and faith isn't required to figure things out.

The only reason we exist, is cuz Noah did what AlmightyGod told him too. Without Noah and his boys, ALL of Earth would have been destroyed.
Of course, you have to understand what exactly was going on in the PreFlood era, that led up to the Flood. Probably less than 10% of the citizens of Earth, understand that; yet, it is no secret, for it is published in the Bible, and expounded on in the book of Enoch, for anyone to read, who wants to..
A local Nashville,TN. man Ron Wyatt found Noah’s Ark many years ago, his website is very interesting 😊
Ron Wyatt has been proven a fraud many times over. The ark he said he found has been investigated by scientist who have done testing that proved Ron wrong. It is a rock formation.
Yup and they kick him of the mountain and closed it off 🤔
Name one, just one, site in the world where wood survived 6000 years in the open air.
You must also remember that there were beavers, wood ants, borer beatles, and thousands of species of termites on the Ark. Outside was a sea of mud.
To survive and breed as commanded, they ate the Ark.
The fact that anyone can take the ark remotely literally clearly shows they have departed reality and won't be coming back any time soon. Theists laugh at science for suggesting theories that existence started randomly and from nothing......yet sit there straight faced while trying to tell us about 800 year old men and a feat of engineering that defies all scientific knowledge, logic and limits 🤣
This is why I stopped debating theists.....reason has long since left the building.
No, Noah was only 500 years old when he started building and having children. An 800 year old man...that would be too old!!
Married to a worldview that only supports material, natural, scientific explanations for biblical history the scoffer cannot imagine a world that operates outside of their limited knowledge and experience - what they can see and touch. A Sovereign Transcendent God authored the natural, physical laws. The physical, natural law is subject to Him, He is not subject to the physical, natural law. He can step into human history any time and in any manner He deems necessary or appropriate. We are, however, subject to the physical, natural limitations within our finite universe. From our limited vantage point it is foolish to declare that we possess the knowledge that denies God. The scoffer cannot countenance that because the physical natural world is what is transcendent and unalterable to the materialist. The materialist worldview that nothing begot everything is as foolish to the believer as the “fairy tale” of the ark is to the scoffer. One of them is right. The other is a fool.
@@johnhuval8165 Bible skeptics are not so much married to naturalism, but rather it is a conclusion based upon the world around us. The New Testament has demons everywhere that we do not see today. We know that the ancient world was full of magical thinking. The major problem with the ark story is that God hid all of the evidence that it happened and managed to fool all of the geologists, archaeologists, paleontologists, biologists, dendrochronologists, marine engineers and many more researchers. That is the real miracle. I don't think that materialists think that nothing begot everything, at least that is not what cosmologists propose.
its probably one of the most metaphorical stories since the Epic of Gilgamesh , any literal interpretation of it must reconcile with the ludicrous belief that it was 500 feet long and held two of every significant animal/reptile/avian all on one 500 foot long canoe...

I was not a Christian for many years and a stumbling block placed in my way by church leaders was that I could not have faith if I held belief in Science. Fortunately, I had an uncle, a minister who read Hebrew, and he explained the translation of "days". I also had a pastor with a Ph.D. in Geology, and who was an old Earth creationist.
Then I also ask, the Bible is clear on the Flood, but not clear on the Moon/Earth collision event. Add in the absence of information on the Chicxulub impact crater and then the Deliquin impact crater, which is much older and more eroded... Both of these would have led to a years long darkness and winter that would have prevented Photosynthesis, therefore all plant growth would have ceased. Please need some help in understanding why the Earth records these events, but the Bible does not?
Have Faith, not silly , earthly "evidence".

God gave the instructions. God Himself closed the door of the Ark. How dare we question that GOD would not divinely protect and sustain Noah, his family members and the variety of animals He instructed be put aboard the Ark? God is omnipotent, omniscient, and tells us what is required for salvation; that’s really all we need.
That's right, I too believe that God held the ark together and kept everyone safe after all he holds our bodies together.
Noah obeyed God he trusted him and did what he said to do for salvation
then God did his part and held it together just like he does with our soul salvation
we do what he says believe the gospel trust in Jesus's finished work on the cross
then he does the rest it's all about Jesus. 🙋♀️

The time it took to build the ark would depend on how much time passed between Genesis 6:14, when God commanded Noah to build the ark; and Genesis 7:1, when God commanded Noah to enter the ark. Some scholars teach that it took Noah 120 years to build the ark, based on Genesis 6:3. Others say that it took 100 years, based on Noah’s age in Genesis 5:32 and his age in Genesis 7:6.
The Ark of the Covenant is a Chest. And it’s built 52’ x 31’ x 31’, or the cubit equivalent, depending upon Royal, Commoner, or Arm Length. To build a Boat you need a Main Beam then Ribs, with which, to attach the outer hull. People didn’t build Ark’s, they built boats and used Hope Chests, (also called Ark Chests) to carry their most precious items safely across water, protected by Ribs. They used these Boats, and Chests to Circle the World upon Water, or at least part of the Circle, sometimes only managing the 180’ Arc of the Full Circle. Why would it take Noah 7 years to work upon his part of the 360’ Arc of Circular Cycle.
This comment only has relevance if the Covenant Arc is 52’ long…that would imply a Year defined by Weeks…and none will comprehend the 1 Time, 2 Times & 1x1/2 Time relevance of 31’ Wide and 31’ Deep. Selling Doves will get your Table overturned.

How about feeding a starving child ?
Also Noah lived 950 year. If he spent half his life buiding the ark with his sons it could be done. At that extended lifespan anyone could accumulate great technical engineering skill, 10× a Leonardo Da Vinci. Think about it, it took 500 years to get from the middle ages to where we are now.

Doesn't compute, because God sealed the ark BEFORE the rain started.😮
Who gathered all the food for the animals? And who cleaned up after them? Have you ever been to see animals in cages after a month in captivity? With 8 humans on board? And 6 thousand species?
No one, because they all would have died from scurvy within about two months, as hundreds of thousands of sailors did in long periods at sea beginning in the so-called Age of Discovery.
God took care of that, its beyond our understanding
It's why it's a story and never happened. Basic logistics for a group of 8 would have prevented them from ever sleeping. And with the claims God took care of them is just the religious person's answer to we don't know so god did it. Science has already thrown the ark story out the window for being absolutely bs.

The ark was NOT a sea-going vessel. It was a huge chest. It was meant to only float, not to ply the water like a ship. That's why Noah wasn't ordered to include any type of steering mechanism. There was no need to include every breed of every animal species, just one pair of them and they would pass on the DNA that would eventually produce the different kinds of that breed.

If Noah had help from other builders asides from his own family, why then would only 8 humans be saved? Surely the builders would have known why they were working on this project?
Noahs 3 sons could have helped.
Believers could have voluntarily helped, but died of natural causes before the flood.
They were paid workers, not caring if Noah believed a false or true story, but just for material gain.
Noah had 100 years to build it
They laughed at Noah, until it started raining…

Apparently no one else on earth owned a boat. 😂
Unbelief. Noah preached judgment coming for 120 years & none outside family believed him. Till then, Bible says a mist arose out of the earth & watered vegetation, so the idea of water falling from up in the air seemed ludicrous. Just like today, many have no fear of God, no trust in God,. No interest in God or in heeding the message of preachers. Mankind hasn't changed, still sinful & rebellious
Another thought; If the fountains of the deep expelled huge quantities of superheated water, when the pressure was released this super-heated water would flash into steam. Water vapor is an even more powerful greenhouse gas as compared to carbon dioxide. The enormous quantities of water vapor into the atmosphere would lead to runaway greenhouse conditions, raising the atmospheric temperatures by several tens of degrees. Also all of the dead and rotting animal and plant material would release methane gas, another very potent greenhouse gas.
Taken together, the water vapor and methane would make for a very hellish Earth.
Hey, don’t bring your sciencey stuff into a discussion of supernatural goobeldygook.
Of course, I would personally like to know where all that water went after the flood.

I think a lot of the water is still here. That’s why most of the planet is covered in water
In addition to the whole ground surface of the Earth would have changed under the water during the flood: "In the days of Peleg, the Earth was divided..." - so it seems plausible to hypothesize that that's when 'continental movement' (it would have been much faster than 'drift') occurred & the continents were formed, the Rocky & Andes Mountains, etc..

GOD can, and does heal what EVER the physical problem is. But we must use His formula to experience it ! First, believe in the fact that Jesus ,(God in human form) took our guilt upon Himself, redeeming us, by taking our place,not Justin His death, but also in His resurrection. In HIS name,by faith alone,WE are expected to receive healing, and as HIS body now, here on earth, WE are expected to continue to do all the wonderful things which He did while He was here. That takes FAITH IN HIM, AND HIS WORD, WHICH TOLD US TO CONTINUE HIS WORK! UNBELIEF , can't accomplish that ! To DO the work, and to receive the perfect result.!! FAITH!!! IS THE ACTUAL SUBSTANCE OF THE REALITY you EXPECT to BE manifested !!!
Go for it ; I've been healed many times, miraculously, AND instantaneously!! WHY? BECAUSE I BELIEVE it's GOD'S WORD, and He said that He would honor HIS WORD, even above His name! HE is honorable! And worthy of our faith in Him and the Truth of His word!❤🎉
I had wondered if Pangea shifted during the flood to where the continents basically are today.
Some interpretations of Genesis 10:25 and 1 Chronicles 1:19 would indicate a post flood division of the earth, others suggest the division was the division of man during the Babel incident.

I was first introduced to Noah's Ark when I was attending Sunday school and was immediately skeptical... I was 6 years old and had questions on how all the animals could fit in a boat.... It's been 40 years and my questions still go unanswered... The amount of food along, would require several boats of similar size, not including the amount of daily fresh water needed for each pair of animal.... Then we need to think about the fish that only live in fresh water or salt water.... Either all fresh water was saved or they perished or visa vera..... The amount of water alone would create a brackish water that a very select few of creatures could live in... Please think about this.... Madagascar alone has 150,000 endemic species, which means they are seen no where else in the world...

The science is wrong. There are MILLIONS of species that would need to be on the ark. None of this "kinds" crap that is a description of nothing in the real world. The time frame from the ark to today is too short for the speciation we see today, not to mention that it contradicts all of the evidence we have ever found.

I agree, humans are actually not more advanced than humans who lived thousands of years ago only the creators and depheloper in the factory are advancing and information systems do not make us smart, its only makes our brains unusable, lately we found young people who were brought up by digitalization technology and electric-mechanical tools but they don't know how to fix broken belt, hand sewing broken clothes, install screws or simple mechanical things, simple cooking many young married couple do not know how to cook, I think people now will not survive if chaos comes
exactly, we are more dumb now than they were then. We can make virgins pregnant right now but Mary was still a miracle to many of the brainless who are alive today. If we do have a nuclear WW3 like america wants then we will not be learning very quickly again because the planet will only be liveable in certain places. It is our destiny to reset and start again and because we are abusive and dumb as a species right now we are going to make it more difficult for the future generations to learn.

Arc - the curse of spell-check potholes strikes again. Ark Ark Ark
All boats need a rudder in order to point the bow or stern into the waves
Failure to do that leads to broaching which leads to capsize
Furthermore
Due `to the consumption of food and water, the ark would get lighter every day and thus more prone to rolling over
Thats what the anchor stones were for
There may be bits of glass, in the area. Tar turns to glass, after hundreds of years.. Like in Jericho.
This is truly one of the best videos I have seen on CZcams in a long time. I would love to sit and debate with yourself, fairly and professionally with respect shown for both sides, as this 18 minute video raised so many contentions that outright show that the ark is nothing more than a man building a big boat thousands of years ago (if it happened at all). Due to the primitive mindset back then, a huge boat would have seemed almost supernatural, and this is to not even involve the sheer space required for these "kinds" of animals. Lastly the term "kind" is so vague as to be irrelevant as most theologians cannot even agree what it means and cannot reliably apply it to life today... so yeah, genuinely any time I would jump at the chance to visit, bathe in the culture that you have built where you are; and to hopefully video debate about this contentious issue.

I think you're doing a great job for the most part but that in some cases you're reading your own ideas into the text. It says cubits, not royal cubits, so we should assume normal cubits making the ark 450 feet by 75 feet and 45 feet high. It doesn't mention a rudder or a bow, so we should assume that it was shaped like a box. Noah had 120 years to build the ark, plenty of time for him and his sons to build it by themselves. There's nothing it the text to indicate that he used hired help. What? he found people to help him and then he let them drown? People would have either mocked him or believed in the project and want to be part of it- and then would they not want to get on the ark themselves?
Where does it say Noah had 120 years to build the ark? I don’t see that in my Bible. Genesis 5:32 says, “after Noah was 500 years old he became the father of Ham, Shem, and Japheth.” Then in Genesis 6:14 God tells him to build the ark. Then, Genesis 7:6 tells us that Noah was 600 years old when the flood came. So, it sounds to me like he had less than 100 years to build it.
@@ChristinewithaC i was thinking of Genesis 6:3 but now that you mention it, your interpretation is probably more likely. At any rate, the hundred years would have been more than enough time to build the ark.

16:21 is a huge croc in the water behind the horse. Odd choice of video clip IMO.
And the plant life which was much of the good? Was that destroyed too? What was the food supply
Where are the humans fossils alongside all he other creatures killed in the supposed flood?
Probably under an incredible amount of mud. Dinosaurs ran uphill where most are found. I think many people are a.k.a. Diotomaeous earth. Depending on conditions is how they would decompose.
Even if it could be proven to be false I think it could be an allegory for salvation but actually I think the bible's multilayered, so it could be literal as well as allegorical
It is not an allegorical account. The Bible does have layers, that's true, but Genesis through Job are historical with next to no allegories at all. The Bible is a book of poetry, instruction, science, and history. It is not a coincidence that every continent shares the same geological layers or that they all have billions of fossils (land and sea animals jumbled together) that were deposited by a flood.
@@vaeshethblade931 that's not what the geological strada is showing.... Not even close
@E Stok There are plenty of deposits around the world that expresses what vaesheth is saying. For example, the Ashley phosphate bed in the Carolina's was shown to have Dino, fish, and human bones/fossils in the same layer in a large quantity. There are many individuals that want to destroy evidence of noahs flood, so they moved or just destroyed these fossils. Please understand that all of land wasn't flooded immediately but it was flooded rapidly. Any people and animals that were together would be found together and others would've been moved based on ocean movements. Parts of the earth had split up (fountain of the deep) which is why we have these separated land mass. Observational science confirms the Bible already, this just happens to be one account. Just because you disagree doesn't mean that it's not true. Flat earthers do this but, I know you are way smarter than them so that's not something we have to worry about right?
It can't be proven as false, and it's not an allegory(Matt. 24:37-39, 2 Pet. 2:5). It's a historical fact. It doesn't matter how many ppl want to scoff at it as being a fable or a myth.
@@theeternalsbeliever1779, Genesis is anti history and anti science, metaphors maybe. Fossils from different eons are not jumbled together. You don’t know much about geology. The flood story is a myth.
Noah preached for 120 years. Therefore 120 years is a long time. Also, what is the height of Noah and the people at that time?
Yes, the explanation that "the animals came to him" solves the problem of how Noah got animals from around the world onto the ark. Now we have a whole new set of problems as a result.
It is 1000 miles of ocean from Australia to mainland Asia. Koalas can't swim.
And from there another 7000 miles over land to the Middle East. How did they navigate? We know they had no compasses. The overland trek would have taken 6 or 7 years. Koalas would have died before completing the trip.
And then there is the matter of food. Koalas eat eucalyptus leaves exclusively. There are no eucalyptus trees on the way.
And any 9 year old koala that happened to make it to the Middle East and survived the flood had another 8000 mile, 7 year journey return trip back.
Why are you applying the geography of the planet after the flood to before it happened? I.e. Australia didn't exist. 2 different worlds...
@@calvinsmith7575 The point I was making appears to have been lost on you. The point was that people make up reasons to explain something; their explanation is not only unsupported by any evidence, but it leads to even more things that now need to be explained.
You are making up the point about Australia not existing. There is no proof of that and lots of proof that it has existed for millions of years. So now explain how Australia came about in the last 4000 years.
- The aboriginal people have lived there continuously for at least 40,000 years. Explain this anomaly.
- There are rock wall paintings that are 35,000 years old. Explain this anomaly.
- Animals like marsupial tigers, kangaroos, koalas and quokkas have not spread out from Australia to mainland Asia, which they would be expected to do if Australia was attached to Asia, but which is expected if they were separated from Asia for millions of years and evolved independently. The same thing happens in islands all over the world like Madagascar. Explain this anomaly.
- Plate tectonics does not support Australia being joined to Asia any time in the recent past. To separate that quickly would have caused enormous volcanism, tsunamis and earthquakes, none of which is in the bible record or the natural record. Explain this anomaly.
@@donlimoncelli6108
Your logic is underpinned by a lot of unwarranted assumptions.
@@mmaimmortals To assume that a koala could make it to the Middle East and back would require logic underpinned by unwarranted assumptions, such as that the koala would live long enough, that it could physically accomplish the feat, and that it would be able to eat along the way. Here are the things you consider "unwarranted assumptions " but which you did not research yourself before saying that:
1. Sea distance: Koalas live in northern Australia. From Somerset on the northern tip of Queensland to the nearest part of the Asian mainland (Singapore) is 4400 km or 2732 miles (I was being very generous saying it was 1000 miles). Wildcare Australia says this regarding koalas’ swimming ability: “Although koalas can swim, if there are no assisted ways for a koala to climb out they will drown.” Koalas sometimes die when they fall into swimming pools because "if there are no assisted ways for a koala to climb out they will drown.”
2. Land distance: I said there was another 7000 miles to the Middle East. The distance from Singapore to Jerusalem is 7761 miles.
3. Time to take to get to the Middle East: Koalas are slow. From the Queensland Department of Environment and Science: “When koalas are on the ground, they walk slowly as they are poorly adapted to walking on the ground.” In addition, koalas sleep 20 hours a day. If a koala were to walk for 2 hours at 2 miles per hour and spend the other 2 hours looking for food and eating, then they would travel 4 miles per day. It would take 2000 days for a koala to walk 7700 miles, or 5.5 years, close enough to my figure of 6 years.
4. The matter of food. Koalas eat eucalyptus, and very occasionally, when eucalyptus is not available, will eat lophostemon, melaleuca, or corymbia.
- Eucalyptus are found in Australia, with a very few in New Guinea and Indonesia. There are none on the Asian mainland.
- Lophostemon are limited to a small area in Western and Northern Australia. There are none on the Asian mainland.
- Melaleuca are found on the east coast of Australia and New Guinea. There are none on the Asian mainland.
- Corymbia is found in Australia and a few surrounding islands. There are none on the Asian mainland. A koala would starve on the way.
5. Making the trip out and back. I said “...any 9 year old koala that happened to make it to the Middle East and survived the flood…” A koala would not be able to make it to the Near East as a newborn joey, as it takes one year to mature. So if one started out as a one-year old, it would be 7 years old when it got there. After a year on an ark, it would be 8 years old. Koalas live to be 10 to 12 years old. With the return trip taking about six years, the 8-year-old koala would be 14 by the time it returned. It would die before getting back.
That is just koalas. Ringtail possums, quokkas and tasmanian devils live shorter lives, and tasmanian devils would have an even longer trek than koalas. Please, please, please consider thinking critically about things like this.
@@donlimoncelli6108
Those details are not what I was referring to as unwarranted assumptions.
Calvin already pointed this out, but you’re mixing IC’s from your world view with the IC’s of the creation position.
That is not how to make a valid argument against a model.
People have been moving animals all over the planet for thousands of years. Will you tell me I have no evidence for this?
The reasons are quite varied.
Domestication, agriculture, food supply, commercial trade, gifts, hunting, war, study, clothing, tools, medicine, accidental passenger, and on and on.
Your unwarranted assumption is that Australia was 4400 years ago where it is today.
The secularists have the continents all together at some point in the past, and so do many (not all) creationists.
You’re also assuming the Ark started in the ME. But there is no Biblical text or any other line of evidence to indicate this is true.
The Bible doesn’t say where the Ark started, only (approximately) where it ended.
If the continents were all together pre-Flood, and people moved animals all over the planet pre-Flood like they do today, then there is no way to know how far any particular kind of animal had to travel to get to the Ark.
Post Flood is a different story.
But, by actually reading the Genesis text, you might find that it implies that people were instructed to assist the animals in their dispersal.
By all means, think critically.
And avoid the unwarranted assumptions.
Good Vid...Just wanted to point out a small error though. You said that the Olmec's came after the Mayans which is incorrect. The Olmec's pre-date The Aztecs, Incans, and Mayans and to date as far as I'm aware were the oldest major Meso-American civilization that we know about dating from roughly 1600 BC to 400 BC. Of course most information with ancient historical timelines and facts tend to be somewhat fluid as there are always new discoveries and new information coming to light.
No point in letting facts get in the way of a good BS story!
Scott - me too,
"Good Vid...Just wanted to point out a small error though." errrm it's total fantasy or hogwash as I like to call it.
„ small error“ the whole thing is made up and copied from other religions…..
God ordered that the ark itself was to measure 300 x 50 x 30 cubits. A cubit is an ancient unit of measurement based on the length from one's elbow to the tip of the middle finger - due to the lack of a standard measurement, it is not possible to accurately convert ancient specifications with confidence. However, in modern times, a cubit is generally taken to be 18 inches, or 46 centimeters. Using this conversion, the ark would measure approximately 450 x 75 x 45 in feet, or 135 x 23 x 14 in meters.

Great video. I agree with you 100%. You’re so right. The problem for most people not believing is that they have no knowledge who the GOD of The Bible really is. If you are the type of person who says to yourself “that’s a lie because there’s no GOD”.
So, of course; you’re going to doubt everything you hear about GOD, but for those that believe it is the power of GOD. Just because an animal was huge (like the host said), he could’ve brought aboard young ones or the eggs. For all of us that believe, there’s nothing impossible for GOD.

For those who read this comment I’m going to write down a Chapter and verse in The Bible so you can read it, because my time is limited, but read it so you can understand GOD better. The Apostle Paul wrote this in - 1 Corinthians 1: 27-29.

I don’t know who you are, but if you’re human; JESUS came and die for you on the cross, so you could be saved and not be sent to hell for eternity. Sounds hard right?

May JESUS open your heart. Amen!!!

@@billybob-ro6qf Several hours everyday with your Grandparents is nothing compared to 24/7,in close quarters, with a bunch of animals, 8 humans, to stink non stop. The poop, pee, vomit, body odor smell would be more than overwhelming. I am surprised there were survivors.
How long would it have taken Noah to build the ark?
Noah's story is in the first book of the Bible...Genesis.
Approximately 75 years
The term Dinosaur wasn't coined until 1841 by Richard Owen, the first director of London's Natural History Museum prior to this time dragons, griffins, and leviathans were the terms.
Noah's ark is found. The inside is covered with pitch and the wood is perfectly preserved in the ice on Mount Ararat. This is not a hoax. Search: Noah's Ark has been found with high probability on Mount Ararat
😅😂🤣
Yeah, sure!
I don't see why that would be the case. The ark would be the only source of wood for some time. The family would likely have disabled the ship for structures.
@@kriegjaeger You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
@@kriegjaeger well it can't have been the only source of wood, because according to Genesis, Noah sent out a dove and it returned with a small branch
The Ark Encounter took 7 years to build. With steel cranes, electricity, power tools, hundreds of guys, using precut dimensioned lumber….AND it was not built to float!
It’s just a story.
And it still leaked!
@@ICarus-eu3jv I'm hoping, I mean REALLY hoping, that when Ken Ham tried to claim on the insurance, it was refused on the grounds that it was an "act of God"! 🤣🤣🤣
Cubit used was the royal Egyptian cubit … 20.6 inches. It’s what Moses used… There was an measurement instrument in king tuts tomb as well.
That small model of the ship in the corner there reminds me of a cargo plane :)
Kinda like 'ancient futuristic'
This is awesome! I can't wait to see the next episode! :D
Me too! Can't wait to see what retarded bullshit Calvin is gonna come up with next time
How to trigger an atheist comment apparently 😂
@@YoungEarthCreation Nah, not triggering anything.
It's just fuqing hilarious that people actually believe this absolute nonsense.
You have to no absolutely NOTHING about our biodiversity or biology as a whole to believe in the flood myth..
Actually one has to ignore biology and geology to accept the Big Bang or evolution. DNA science has shown us that there is no natural path for evolution from a simple cell to complex life as mutations almost if not always leads to death and destruction of dna. No mechanism of adding information to DNA. There is no natural mechanism to take matter and it turn to life. Zero. Life is devolving not evolving. Nor is there a single example of one kind of animal changing to another kind.
@@Jewonastick yes, of course, people believe it because we’ve actually studied the subject. Unlike people that are just opinionated without any further investigation.
Take yourself, for example could you name even a single current prediction of our model? That is probably asking even to much. Let’s use baby steps and start with the most basic of questions: Do you even know how we explain the diversity of life?
No. No you do not because if you did you would know even more about the subject.
God speaks to animals. He directed them to the ark.
There's text in Jeremiah and Isaiah that bring light in some of this issues which the producers of this video may not be aware. There's answers in other books too 😅
You claim Job lived after the flood. Where do you get that from?
The story of Noah's Ark took place during the Neolithic Age, long before the great civilizations of Egypt, Babylon, or early China (let alone Rome). The largest boat built before that time was not more than about 30 feet long, at most. No one had ever tried to build a ship as large the ones described here. There wasn't enough quality wood in that area to begin with. And where could Noah have found enough workers? How did he pay them? It would have cost the equivalent of billions of dollars. Even Elon Musk would have a hard time paying for that. And a wooden boat that size would not be seaworthy. It would have sunk almost immediately.
How did Noah summon all the animals from around the world? It's true that many species migrate seasonally between two known points (usually a place in the temperate zones and one in the tropics), but how would they locate the exact spot where the Ark was? Did they have a GPS? Many of the larger ones are herd animals (such as elephants). Could Noah have persuaded a male and a female to depart from the rest of the herd, and to set out for someplace that they had never been to before? How could they have navigated across thousands of miles of difficult, treacherous, unknown terrain, all on their own? As they approached the Ark, they'd be hunting, fighting, and killing each other. That's what animals do. Imagine trying to herd all of them up a gangplank and then inside a strange, dark, wooden structure totally unlike anything that they've ever seen. Good luck with that. Remember, these are wild animals, not domestic pets or livestock.
Most large animals need more space than just a tiny cage where they can barely even stand up--and this was for an entire year. Did the Ark have enough grazing land for all the herbivores? Imagine an Ark with a ranch onboard. Animals need room to roam and play.
We still haven't identified all the animal species on Earth, but to hold all of them and sustain them, the Ark would have to be at least several miles long and over a mile wide--many times larger than the biggest ship ever built. Moreover, for any species to survive and sustain itself requires more than just one male and one female. This is basic biology.
Do Scriptures say that there was only one continent prior to the big flood? If so, then at least 90 percent of all these species simply would not exist. They obviously evolved on separate continents. Most of them would not have survived otherwise. And the Book doesn't explain how the continents all drifted apart to where they are today--a process that takes hundreds of millions of years, not just a few months.
How did Noah gather up all the plants? The Ark would have to provide space for every plant species on the entire planet (imagine having a giant sequoia on board). Could the Ark hold enough plants to repopulate the entire world? After the flood ended, and all the animals disembarked, the land would have been totally barren. Did Noah and his sons travel all over the world, transplanting all the trees, bushes, vines, grasses, fungi, and other plants exactly where they should have been? How did they know which plant belonged in each location? Did they have a detailed map of the world? Otherwise, there would be literally nothing at all for herbivores to eat. And when a carnivore ate one of the herbivores (before it had a chance to bear young), then that particular species would become extinct. For example, suppose a lion ate one of the two surviving zebras, leaving the other with no mate. The zebra species would soon have been gone forever. And after disembarkation, how would any animal know where to go? Did someone guide them to their future abodes?
If Noah and his family were the only surviving humans, then humanity would have died out, too. The gene pool would have been far too small to keep our species going.
Did this one family give rise to all of the humans in the world today? Think of all the different ethnic and linguistic groups of people, from the Inuit to the Aborigines, the pygmies, the Polynesians, the Chinese, the Arabs, the Anglo-Saxons, the Tibetans, the Slavs, the Greeks, the Berbers, the tribes of the Amazon, and the Scandinavians, to name only a few. Were they all descended from Noah and his family? That process would have taken tens of thousands of years. And if we were all Noah's descendants, then all of our languages would be a lot more similar than they are today.
This is a children's fairy tale. It may be plausible to a five-year-old kindergarten kid, but I don't know how any educated adult could believe it.
Spot on with your summary. Let's not forget the copious amounts of shit that had to be cleaned up on a daily basis, and deposited all thru just "one" window. Yep, great story for 5 year olds. Amazing that grown is still believe it!
Bravo 👏 Well said.
What was done for all the dead bodies? No ventilation except 1 window at the top and all that deadly manure gas just hanging around. Any thoughts?
I think you're being quite logical. No place for that kinda talk here! 😆
The door in the side of the ark is the autumn equinox. The three sons of Noah (Earth) were Shem (winter), Japheth (spring), and Ham (summer). The four sons of Ham are Leo, Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio. Ham aka Jupiter aka Siva is called Israel in Isaiah 9.14-15. These three season are all aspects of Jupiter.
@CB Dwarfer lol... yeah I know. Just trying to spread some much needed logic.
@@harveywabbit9541 What on earth are you going on about?
@@dmcfarland9760
Noah means earth at rest. Like earth as the center of the universe. Same as Adam, Terah, Terra, and Job. The wife of Noah was also called Vesta.
Living near the Ark in Northern Kentucky, that is a big boat. Visit the Ark in Williamstown KY, it shows you everything explained here.
Living near the London natural history museum in South Kensington is a big place. Everything is shown you and explained here.
So what sins did all those people commit that they should be wiped out since they hadn’t yet gotten the 10 commandments?
