Noah's Ark was brilliantly designed and just right for the job!

I remember watching a thunderstorm from so far up in the Rocky Mountains that the lightning was striking UNDER and AROUND us...on the 4th of July!   Best fireworks show ever...



REO Speedwagon was a local group who made it BIG.  They are still out there touring with a lot of the 1970's personnel still going strong.   

Jonathan Sarfati, an accomplished scientist and chessmaster, is also well-versed in history and loves political science...and humor!  If you have never read his Questions from various foreigners planning on visiting Australia?   I should put it at the bottom!  

Dr. Sarfati does a good job of answering critics who are usually unprepared for an intelligent discussion of the Ark in this one, below.   I'll not change Jonathan's style on this one with fonts or anything else.  [But I did. -Cowboy Bob]

Refuting Noah’s ark critics

The article How did all the animals fit on Noah’s Ark? was only Dr Jonathan Sarfai’s second article for Creationmagazine, published in 1997. But only in the last year, it has received a barrage of criticism from biblioskeptics. The article was probably linked on some atheopathic site inhabiting some of the darker corners of the Internet. We thought that Dr Sarfati’s refutations of these critics would be instructive for a weekend feedback article. They show that the biblical account can withstand the strongest attacks even better than the Ark could withstand the Flood waters (which is saying a lot).

The sheer silliness of this is mind boggling. There hasn’t been enough time for all species to evolve in 4 billion years, BUT … Horses,Zebras and Donkeys, which are estimated to be millions of years apart by science, evolved in 5000 years? Huh?
A guy had 8000 pairs of animals on an Ark? Can’t this be a story? Catholics treat all of these things as stories without anyone running off to become an atheist. I just will never get this.
What is really mind-boggling is how you can comment with so little understanding of the issues. It doesn’t take that long to vary, as shown by the rapidity that the breeds of dogs were formed from a pair of wolves only a few thousand years ago, and other examples of rapid speciation
No, the global Flood and Ark can’t be a (false) story. Jesus didn’t think so—in Luke 17:26–27 He said:
