Let them build their arc to their specification, and then load the ark with a pair of bible literalist for each pair of animals the literalists thinks was on the original ark, and set the packet adrift for 140 days.
I'd like to see what kind of food they could load on the boat that would last for 140 days. No refrigeration! No canned goods! Nothing freeze dried! No packaged items!
To fully address all the problems with the ark story, I think you'd need to produce a research paper worthy of a doctoral thesis in any number of fields of study, ranging from meteorology to geology to zoology.
You'd think that Christian leaders would avoid the topic of Noah's Ark rather than try to build a life size version of it which only draws attention to the logistical problems.
