Joshthefirst: toh. May we see na.




according to which dating standards?

according to which dating standards?

no. Gimme your evidence then. There are only archaeological records that secular scientists date with faulty dating methods.

the bibilical records state that the water reserves beneath the crust broke open, and the rains fell constantly and torrentially for 40 days.
So it would have been very easy.

we're considering the possibility of a flood, I have said this earlier. You cannot consider this possibility that would have cause enough crust and landscape modifications with the view of contemporary landscape today.

as I said, you cannot argue this possibility with modern landscape.




go and read the record of the flood again, this time without religious or irreligious bias, like a true scientist that you are.

phuck_NL: The tale of Noahs ark is actually what it is "TALE"
I bet it was blown out of proportion. What probably happened was a localized flood where he probably saved a handful of domesticated animals.
If anyone believes he saved all the animals in pairs, you need to have yourself checked out. If the leaders that we have today CAN LIE to us with all the technological devices we have today, why is it implausible for people who lived centuries ago to have LIED also. The tale is a MYTH.

Kelly 32: Please I think we should calm down and watch then we can decide if the story in the bible is true or false.

Joshthefirst: lol. Go and read the bible again. This time objectively. Go and read the records of early believers. Why would they lie? No man in his right senses will see the bible in all its prophecies and deny the fact that it is extra-ordinary.

AjaoMT2: Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Gen 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
Gen 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
Gen 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

We can see from verse 2 that the the entire earth was flooded initially before God separated the waters above from the one below and had to gather the one below to one place before land could appear.
The question is, could the person who separated the waters initially not flood it again?

The Question should be: If Nobody existed as at the time of creation and the Book of Genesis was allegedly written by Moses who was born hundreds of years after Noahs Flood, and millions of years after the 'creation of earth', how the fhuck did he know all these..



O Wait!!!!! I'm sure you answer is; GOD TOLD HIM..

Which brings me to Question number two: WHO VERIFIED THAT?!








Allahu Akbar!

Evil Brain: How did Noah fit 2 million insects (1 million species x 2) into the ark? And how did be manage to fit 12,000 amphibians, 20,000 birds, 11,000 mammals, 16,000 reptiles and god knows how many crustaceans, arachnids and mollusks into a boat that must have already been overflowing with insects? Where did he find space to keep a years worth of food for all those animals? How did he keep the meat for the Lions, tigers and other carnivores fresh for a whole year? Why did he take mosquitoes, tapeworms, guinea worms and the HIV virus aboard the ark? Did he infect himself with all those parasites, or did he force his wife and children to carry them? How come all the animals didn't freeze to death at 9,000 metres altitude (the height of Mount Everest which must have been underwater) Where did they find oxygen to breathe at that height? What did all the animals eat after getting off the ark? All the plants must have died after a year underwater, and all the animals would have drowned so no food for herbivores or carnivores. How come all the fish in the ocean survived? Saltwater fish can't survive in freshwater and the ocean would have been massively diluted with all that rain. Or did the ark also have a salty fish tank with space for 60,000 fish (30,000 species x 2)? And how did he feed all those fish?

Not that I'm doubting this ark story mind you. Its in the Bible after all, so it must be true. I'm just curious about a few technicalities. I'm sure you have good explanations for all of them.

aliciakeith7: Allah told Muhammad to write the quoran. Then he wrote it. How did you know it was Allah who directed him to write it? WHO VERIFIED THAT?

If you ever speak about Prophet Muhammed (SAW) or Allah again...

phuck_NL: ^^^^^^

This thread is about Noah's Ark. Abeg don't turn it into a religious war. The two of you should end it immediately juh.
You can create another thread for that.

That was sarcasm

Mr President: The stories in the bible are not to be taken literally. This is the mistake a lot of people are making. The stories are not literal. They are allegorical, metaphorical etc with a lot of symbolism. The bible is loaded with with layers and layers of hidden meanings. Snakes talking, trees moving, donkeys talking all have meanings that are not apparent to the casual, flippant, wicked or dishonest observer. The book interprets itself, inside the book itself are the keys to the secrets. You cannot be wicked and understand the Bible. You cannot do the things that are forbidden by The Most High God and yet understand His word. He chooses whom to bestow His secrets on, and even at that there are different levels of understanding.

The Bible is the single most powerful book in circulation, it has the capacity to turn men into living gods, gods on earth.

Please do not disdain what you do not understand. Approach The Almighty God with reverence and He may just reveal His secrets to you, after testing your sincerity of course. He sees into you heart and understands your motives more than even you do.

The story of the flood is not literal, and as with many other stories/words in The Great Book, specific meanings of words have morphed overtime.

Hold God in reverence and approach Him with trepidation, it may be that He would have mercy on you and show you His salvation.

Evil Brain:

The numbers I quoted refer to the species alive today. If they weren't all admitted to the ark, then how did they survive?


lol, I've thought about it myself. how did he fit in all the animals in an ark in pairs. most of the animals alive today were not in existence back then. evolution occurred and one animal re-evelved to about 10 different species. that's the only scientific explanation i can give for it.

adexsimply:
I'd assume he chose to "bestow his secrets on you", could you please explain the "secrets" behind "Noah and the ark" then? Then you could kindly tell me how I can be a partaker of the "secrets" too..Thanks

abacus Cm: The bible (original one) is a scripture from God but today's bibles contain many contradictions due to human errors.Infact there are 101 errors in today's bible

e.g 1. Who incited David to count the fighting men of Israel?

God did (2 Samuel 24: 1)
Satan did (I Chronicles 2 1:1)
2. In that count how many fighting men were found in Israel?

Eight hundred thousand (2 Samuel 24:9)
One million, one hundred thousand (I Chronicles 21:5)
3. How many fighting men were found in Judah?

Five hundred thousand (2 Samuel 24:9)
Four hundred and seventy thousand (I Chronicles 21:5)
4. God sent his prophet to threaten David with how many years of famine?

Seven (2 Samuel 24:13)
Three (I Chronicles 21:12)
5. How old was Ahaziah when he began to rule over Jerusalem?

Twenty-two (2 Kings 8:26)
Forty-two (2 Chronicles 22:2)
6. How old was Jehoiachin when he became king of Jerusalem?

Eighteen (2 Kings 24:
Eight (2 Chronicles 36:9)
So therefore bible version of Noah's Ark may not be true.
