out of wood big enough to hold a male and female of
every stinking species of land animal on this planet, and enough food to keep them all alive for the duration of the Flood (I don't remember how long this was supposed to be, and I'm not going to waste my time looking it up), that these same seven or eight people somehow managed to gather up a male and female of all these species, including those found only in North America, South America, Australia, New Guinea, Madagascar and many other assorted islands, and load them onto this ship, that this enormous, ridiculously heavily loaded ship somehow managed not to break apart or sink, that this crew of seven or eight people managed to feed all of these animals, and gather up all their crap and throw it overboard, and keep the predators from eating the other animals, then, when the flood was over, these same seven or eight people managed to distribute these animals all over the world, or the animals managed to make their own way to the most distant points of the planets, including swimming across oceans (if they could do that, why did they need the ship to survive the Flood?), and that the contents of this ship was enough to rebuild the entire ecosystem of the Earth.
Okay, now, how would "understanding God's word" make this ridiculous fairy tale believable?
