Please.
The part from Genesis chapter 6 to chapter 9 are utter nonsense. The rest of it isn't so bad.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Nonstampcollector has a 2-part video on youtube that's excellent satire of Noah. Give it a watch!

So in Drich's opinion, a 450' boat is more than large enough to hold 17.4 million animals.

It's all about how you pack 'em in there. If you are a master at efficiency, it's fuckin' easy.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

It's like animal Tetris, and the amount of pure waste manure and sewage they would have produced in such tight quarters would simply have sealed in the freshness, and kept the animals from moving around too much.

Maybe next time God decides to destroy the world we can leave the knuckle-draggers like Drich outside the boat.

I struggle to see how someone with a normally functioning adult brain can believe Noah's Ark actually happened. I thought stuff like this was labelled allegorical.

Where do you think the atmosphere ends up? Underwater?
It's called density. The atmosphere floats above the more dense ocean due to gravity.
forced into outer space. I figure the world holds as much atmosphere as it does because that's about as much as it can. If you push all the air up like that, it gets pushed out of the gravitational field and scatters into space. Not that I have anything hard to back it up. That's just was I think would happen.
No. Forced by what?
All that the water will do is very slightly increase the diameter of the earth by about 2 X 8,848 m(height of Everest). That would be less than a 0.14% increase. The atmosphere will still be held by gravity.
Now either the water already existed on Earth, in which case surface gravity is only barely weaker, or the water was added to Earth, which would make the gravity an eentsy bit greater.
The atmosphere wouldn't go anywhere.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
