I do but tell what about the story you think is ridiculous .
This has been done to death but you are new here so i'll go over the main points.
First, the flood, there is no evidence of a world wide flood. Where did the water come from? Where did it go?
Secondly, pretty much every species of animal that couldn't swim, was on that ark. The ark would have had to have been impossible big to fit all the animals on and have enough food for all of them and the humans aboard. How did the humans manage to feed all the animals, remove their waste and feed themselves. There was only like 10 people aboard right? How did they survive with no fresh water?. Why did the animals not eat each other?.Also how did all the animals get there? How for example did the sloth manage to crawl all the way there in time to get aboard. Also 2 of every animal right? So then why is there no evidence of a genetic bottleneck all of the species alive today?
I will be extremely surprised if you can answer all of these questions without saying goddidit or resorting to magic, but you are entitled to try.
