Noah did not carry whales or the entire animal and plant kingdom in the ark as wrongly recorded by the bible. Scientist make a mockery of the Noah flood because the bible wrongly cliams it was universal flood and every thing on earth outside the ark perished

the quran however correctlyy narrated that the flood was local only to the people of Noah and environs. Meaning his conservation efforts is only for native species and there was no break in human civilization.  scientist have  conclusively  confirmed that an extensive flood occured in the mediternean basin during this time

this is just one of the few example of how bible makes religion a joke in the face of science. The quran on the other hand is 100 % scientifically and historically accurate.
I am open to any challanges(with evidence) on the contrary

until you come to terms that this Noah story is a myth,

you will just be conjuring up unwarranted explanation for incidents that never existed.

Dont dull yourself with this holy books (bible and quran) mythology and sometimes folklores!

Common sense alone would dictate that Noah was not required to do so, since such creatures already were accustomed to living in water.

Let us examine what the biblical text itself has to say on this subject. Genesis 6:19 reads: “And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female” .

The phrase “all flesh” has been interpreted on occasion to mean that God commanded Noah to take even water-living creatures on board the ark. What is the meaning—in the context—of the phrase “all flesh”? The text that follows in Genesis 6:20 goes on to explain. “Of the birds after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.” God therefore limited “all flesh” by specifying three categories: (1) birds; (or fowl); (2) cattle; and (3) creeping things.
wink
God’s command to Noah in Genesis 6:19-20 was that “a male and female of all kinds of animals that could not live in the waters [were] to be brought into the ark”

Furthermore, Genesis 7:21-22 records: “All flesh died that moved upon the earth, both birds, and cattle, and beasts, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, of all that was on the dry land, died

Genesis 6:5-7

5Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6The LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.

7The LORD said, "I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them."

It is very clear that from Adam to Noah (AS to both) the whole world was not heavily populated, so the people on eath must have been Noah,s local people! Why would a sea animal be kept in the ship away from water, when whales need big water body to swim? Flood brings big water body. No? And the oceans were already in there anyway, since the sea craetures were existing in the oceans, before the flood.

People use your Atheist common sense. The_seeker was correct as we see that the population of man at Noah's timwe would have been tops, a small nation like!

actually,  all creators except the ones in the ark would be dead right?  

wasn't that God's plan, 2 of each creature you want to save?

Arguing with common sense, who says a great flood wouldn't have lead to the contamination of the whales habitat?

use your common sense. noah did not have to carry dinosaurs cos they perished 65 million years ago, long before man ever walked the earth, He did not have carry polar bears or kangaroos or girrafes either cos as the quran narrated, the flood did not cover the entire world but only the vicinity around noah and his people. That is why records show that contemporary civilizations like tht of egypt were unbroken during the time of the flood

Re: How Noah Carried 2 Whales? by theseeker2: 10:06am On Oct 03, 2009
scientists have found a distinctive clay marker in the mediterrenean basin characteristic of such flash floods. Suggesting a goelogically brief but extensive flood in the basin. Archeological evidence also points out that a human civilzation was also wiped out by this disaster.

The problem with the bible is that it is always given to exagerrations. A local event is narrated as a global extinction similar to the permian extinction or that at the end of the cretaceous. Asumming the bibble were to narrate the incidence of the versuvius volcano in pompeii it would have blown it out of proportion to global levels. This would have left scientists dumbfounded as to how a small volcano in italy would have destroyed the whole earth.

The quran however cleary narrated that the flood only affected the people of noah and not the whole world. The same way the destruction of peopl of lot in sodom and gommorah was local and did not affect abraham and his people or even other parallel civilizations

does this make any sense? koran is scientifically correct? really?

can u use the koran to define the borders of the flood? since the flood was a local one. . .where did it start and where did it end?
Do u know that it has been scientifically proven that noah's food indeed happened?

What is there to copy?
Is is that plants were created before the sun?
Or
that a universal flood occured at the time of noah?
Or
tht the rulers of egypt were called pharaohs during the time of joseph or rightly as kings as the quran stated.
Or that the earth is 6000 years old?
Or that man was created before animal?

I have always wondered what kind of a genius muhammed must have been to have copied only the accurate parts of the bilbes and correct  the fallacies. How he could have spoken accurately abt emrayonic developments', anatomy of ocean waves or something as grand as the big bang theory
How he could have written a book 100% scientifcally  and historically correct having copied from the mess you call the bible.

Kolaxy made the most point.
If it is a flood, why would sea creatures need saving?

Also do you know that some schools of thought (scientists) are beginning to believe that the big bang  as they call it was when God said: let there be light?

God's word galvanises nature so creation and specie variations are not always as a result of 'magic' but can also have scientific explanations .
Even species look slightly different depending on geo-locations because nature (God's creative force), in its perfection, sees it as necessary for their survival.

The problem is that even christians themselves disagree strongly with what you have said and some christian geologist have said that it was not a global flood because there is ABSOLUTE NO evidence to support a global flood. . .


In an article at http://home.entouch.net/dmd/gflood.htm , Glenn Morton provides sufficient evidence that a global flood never occured. Morton is a geophysicist and he is a christian. His favorite evidence against the global flood is hydrodynamic sorting ad he went i great detail to explain it. Morton discusses hydrodynamic sorting at length in the article and explained why there is absolute no evidence for the mythical Noah's flood and how it was impossible for it to have left no evidece at all it if had happened on a global scale. According to Wikipedia, hydrodynamics is "the study of liquids in motion.". . . .He even explain that a global Flood violates the second law of thermodynamics,  . .there is no scientific evidence for any global flood. . .
