Yeah, they still can't get around the fact that you can't make a wooden boat that big without problems.

 Models have been built and were shown to survive tremendously bad seas.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

"On the basis of the experiment documented above we are certain that the construction of the ark was possible and that it would be a sea worthy vessel of unparalleled cargo capacity."
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

But did they use a more flexible material to simulate the use of wood at a larger scale?

Not a completely wooden boat as big as the ark was supposed to be.

That entire Noah story is not only scientifically absurd, it is also morally bankrupt. Genocide involved and a limited gene pool which would require incest to repopulate the planet, if one is to pretend it were a true story.

And a completely incompetent god. Kill the entire planet because his 'best effort' didn't follow his orders AGAIN!

No shit, that would be like a a parent with 3 kids, one 17, one 10 and one 3, then murdering all three of them because the 17 year old stayed out after curfew.
