It cannot float! Wooden ships built by highly experienced builders with good materials available to them built ships at 350ft and guess what? They had to be scrapped. The hull couldn't take the force being pressed down on it. The hull buckled. Wooden ships at 450ft with reinforced iron beams also suffered structural failer. They required constant pumping. There are physical limitations.
So a 450ft ship weighing effing tons surviving brutal 150 days of sea travel is impossible. It's not possible. NO matter what you believe. The ship cannot float. If you think it can, build one and prove it. No iron or steel supports. Just wood. Because I'm pretty sure Noah didn't have access to either of those metals. Also that 450ft boat being built, it's got steel supports to hold it together. I guess they know it won't float without them. They aren't very confident in Noah's ark without the assistance of steel are they.
I think they should build it the way it was built and with the right materials. Not using modern technology.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
