Diseases: how were these animals carried, and how did the ark not turn into one massive floating plague pit?

Parasites? Which unlucky animal got infected with those?

The list of questions can go on forever.

How did Noah keep the Polar bears cool?
How did the walrus get to the Arc - they're not big on walking.
Why did non of the monkeys with prehensile tails stop off in Africa on their way back to South America?
How did Noah dispose of Gorilla shit?
Where did Noah get the bamboo to feed the Pandas?
Where did Noah get sufficent wood to build the ark in the first place?
Didn't saving the wood worm put his entire project at risk?
Who guided Proteus anguinus - one of the species of blind cave salamders back to their caves in the Western Balkan peninsula?
....

My God Esquilax - you're right - we've proved infinity!
There are an infinite number of questions that need to be answered for the story of the flood to be acceptable.
Yea for us.

Not many questions at all.
It was avery big ark.
The world was very different before the flood.
God could have had the animals go to the ark.
After all He is God.
Noah just needed 2 of each kind. A kind would then become several species afterward.
Noah could have taken young animals that were smaller.
God may have caused hibernation on the animals.
After all He is God.

Does not seem to be too much needed, especially when one considers Almighty God.

We aren't done.

Quote:It was avery big ark.

Not big enough, according to the dimensions in the bible.

Quote:The world was very different before the flood.

How?

Quote:God could have had the animals go to the ark.

I'm an Australian: are you saying the Koalas, Wombats and Echidnas all swam the distance there? Impossible for them, and even if they could swim, you're asking non-aquatic animals that need to sleep to make multiple days worth of sea travel. Impossible.

Quote:After all He is God.

Magic solves everything, huh?

Quote:Noah just needed 2 of each kind. A kind would then become several species afterward.

So, what's the scientific definition of a kind? You understand that there are observed, demonstrable evolutionary principles, like ring species, that disprove the definition of kind that the people you're cribbing this shit from use?

Quote:Noah could have taken young animals that were smaller.

And hence less likely to survive the long journeys from across the world to get to him.

Quote:God may have caused hibernation on the animals.

Magic solves everything!

Quote:After all He is God.

MAAAAAAAGGGGGIIIIIIIC!

Quote:Does not seem to be too much needed, especially when one considers Almighty God.

Okay, now prove that it actually happened. Don't just shovel fanfiction at me; where's the proof that any of this occurred?

I told you about this days ago... Why don't you crazy atheists listen?!
MAGIC can do anything!
MAGIC can make it look like anything I want.
MAGIC can make completely unnatural events look like completely natural ones! DUH!

That's not the way sediment works.

Quote:Also man would have initially moved to higher ground.

And then been cast down in the waters of the flood, no? I mean, they did drown.

Quote:The land was not yet divided. That happens later.

Pangea? Really? And what do you say to the demonstrable, peer reviewed scientific evidence on continental drift that shows you are, without a doubt, wrong?

Quote:God would have directed the animals back to the natural habitat.

How? Magic?

Quote:The world change after the flood. So some species would wide out, others survive.

Isn't it funny how you're that general, while in another thread, you demand exact calculations? Just "changed?" No reason, just changed in whatever way best suits your argument?

Quote:You are assuming that dating techniques are valid beyond the flood and its aftermath.

And you're assuming they aren't. The difference is, we have evidence, you have a dishonest presupposition.

Quote:Maybe the entire Sahara was just a wash in of sediment from the flood.

And maybe you're a sentient piece of cheese. Why are we just desperately positing fictional scenarios?

Quote:Seeds

And the non-seeding plants?

Quote:Not every animal kind on the Ark were by 2's.

Which just increases the impossibility of the ark as described holding the requisite number of animals.

My god! What a dumbass! Shrieking: 'GODDIT' doesn't mean anything. It has no explanatory power whatsoever. Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if this guy is Ray Comfort. He's on the same level of stupidity, arrogance, ignorance and delusion.
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

If so, I have a few suggestions regarding a banana.
