I've often challenged believers to provide the stowage and stability calculations for the ark and its cargo. Unsurprisingly, no one ever seems interested in doing so. Of course, they'd just pull the "God magic card" anyway to pretend to explain the unexplainable, like they always do.
Even the Bible says that the Noah flood story is BS if you read the fairy tale. For one thing the Garden of Eden was just down the road from Assyria, Persia, Arabia, and Ethipoia. So those civilizations were in place when Adam & Eve were running around butt naked. And guess what? Those civilzations were still in place after Noah's flood that killed all life on Earth except for that which was with him. And after that Nimrod went to Assyria and built several cities.
The Noah story is simply a war story. The flood was the surge of enemy troops who swept through the land on a killing, raping, and pillaging spree. The Bible is full of war stories that refer to such events as floods.
We really need a giant asteroid to wipe the stupidty off of the face of the Earth. It will be better off without billions of stupid people infecting it like a virus.
