Questions about noah ark

[Thumpalumpacus]

Considering that the bible does give exact measurements for the Ark, I am surprised that someone hasn't already tried to build a replica ark and take it on a cruise already.

I'm not. Such a vessel would break up even in calm seas, as the ends were each supported by a wave but the middle wasn't, leaving it to sag -- then, as the wave passed under the vessel, the ends would sag as the middle was lifted. This back-and-forth stressing, called "hogging", imposes a maximum size of about 325 feet on wooden vessels.

The Ark, as described by the Bible is an engineering impossibility.

When you add to that the absence of evidence for a worldwide flood, it renders the OP's musings laughably wrong.

But when pinned about specifics ('What did the koalas eat?' 'What happened to all the poo?' 'Why weren't Noah and Company steam-cooked?' and so on) they always, without exception, invoke miracles. Well, if you're going to do that, they why not invoke miracles from go?

-exactly. It was a magical boat on magical water in a magical storm full of magical animals and magical people at the behest of a magical god in order to achieve a magical end that, for whatever reason...couldn't be achieved directly..........by magic.

as well as turning the earth into the equivalent of a pressure cooker with atmospheric pressure at nearly a thousand psi instead of the standard 14.7 or so that we have today.

Brought that up to one our our resident floodists, got the internet equivalent of a blank stare........these people.............

It seems none of them have heard of the latent heat of condensation.
