Noah's Ark (!) Shows How Seaworthy It Is In A Storm

 Do you even know the properties of gopher wood?

Let me guess, it is a supernatural god wood.  It transforms on demand to being harder than steel, tougher than titanium, stronger than adamant

Maybe it is the wood grown from aroused gophers?

Ea had been sworn to secrecy, but he cleverly betrayed the gods’ plans to Utnapishtim. Speaking to the walls of his house, he described the plans, while Utnapishtim heard everything on the other side of the walls. Ea warned him that the gods would be sending a terrible flood. He told him to build a boat of immense dimensions, ten dozen cubits in height (approximately 180 feet) with six decks and one acre of floor space, and load it up with the seed of each living thing and with his family and possessions.

Truth be told, it is no sillier than the Noah bullshit story.  And the fact that an agricultural society's 'god' told them to bring seeds makes more sense than the silly jew tale.

Yeah but it's funnier imagining him going round collecting animal seed.
