A flood to the top of Mount Ararat would mean huge amounts of scientific evidence could be found. All im asking for is some because afaik that much water covering the earth couldn't hide its mark. And afaik there isn't enough water on earth to cover it up to were they found the boat.
And you wonder why I get so pissed at the atheist on this board sometimes.
NEVER ONCE DID I CLAIM THIS WAS NOAH'S ARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at the posts.
You claimed that this would mean that it could not have been a local flood. I agreed that if this were actually Noah's Ark that it would be strong evidence against the local flood theory. But that if you want to say that I can no longer hold to the local flood theory, then you have to account for Noah's Ark being this high up on a mountain.
This CANNOT be evidence against a local flood theory, but not evidence for the biblical Noah's Ark and a global flood.
I don't think this is Noah's Ark. Nor do I expect to ever find Noah's Ark as I believe in the local flood theory, which would mean this would not be on top of a giant mountain. Also, I would expect that because it would not be on a giant mountain that the Ark would probably be torn apart and all salvageable pieces reused. Not just abandoned and left intact.
