I grew up in an evangelical household. The impossibility of Noah’s ark, every animal on earth and everything needed to feed them …keep in mind I was probably 8 when I started questioning many stories in the bible …sticks in my mind as a step on my journey to agnostic atheism
So I grew up atheist, but because of where I live (Bible Belt) I got exposed to these stories. The illustrated story books with two male lions entering the arc always amused me and the unicorn slander struck me as proof their got lacked authority😂
this was the thing that solidified it as "nonsense" to young me. I asked my religion teacher "if everything else on earth was swept away, wouldn't that mean that Noah and his wife are the new Adam and Eve? Why don't we talk about them repopulating the earth after the flood?" and the teacher sent me into the hallway for the rest of the class session. Never answered my question, just taught me that questioning is prohibited. Absolute nonsense :)
33:52 I went to a Catholic school. We had: - 1 arson attack (not while school was in session) - 1 explosion threat - And too many active shooter threats to name I should mention I was born in 1998. Right before Columbine. Posters dont do shit.
People should see Irving Finkel’s lecture on the Ark Before Noah. He discusses how the story predates Noah and how to build the ark with the oldest known dimensions from an ancient stone tablet.
Yay! My country was mentioned! I'm Dutch. We have a bible belt too! Fun fact. There is even a fisherman from the reformed faith that owns a small museum of ice age fossils he found at Doggerland and still believes in a young earth.
Oh, thank you for sharing, it's good to know it's not just ALL here. I mean, it's kinda like paper cut vs sucking chest wound, but I really do appreciate the commiseration. ;)

Just to make sure: these are floating steel pontoons with steel ribs and wooden planking.

The thing moved when a new city government charged full rates.
I spit out my soda while laughing while listening to a video where Aron Ra explained that Noah's Ark only had one window for ventilation for the 3 stories. Therefore, the 8 people would have died almost immediately from the methane gas produced by the animals farting and pooping!
Like Cities and states own sports stadiums that taxes and loans by the cities pay for but do they get a cut of the door profits or TV broadcast rights from this?
That could be because you might not be looking for the right title. It's not "Savos San General Outstanding". It's _"Sawbones In General"._ Try looking for _that,_ you might be more successful. "Outstanding" is part of the next sentence: "It's outstanding." It's _not_ part of the title. She does say it rather fast so it's hard to make it out the first time around. Cheers!
I grew up a 6 hour drive west of Lexington and Concorde. Dad's brother and family lived in the area a few years. Visited Boston area and Revolutionary War hotspots more than once. Granted, it's been some decades, but pretty sure I never heard anyone pronouncing it as Khan-kerd
I also find it funny that they want to post the ten commandments. But never like, you know, the golden rule. Something that would be actually applicable to students. Most of the classrooms and hallways in that school had the golden rule. I can't remember a single time my Catholic school had a poster of the ten commandments. Maybe because the school wasn't wanting to teach middle schoolers what adultery was? Our sex ed was bad enough as is.
John 14:21-23 ESV Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him." [22] Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?" [23] Jesus answered him, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
Looks like parts of it were built at different times & the wood aged. The varnish aged out & went grey. Could be that they used different brands of varnish on parts of the boat, too & they aged differently. That happens.
Adultery was not: don't sleep with someone you're not married to. (Actually, that would include a single person's sex life, which this law doesn't address.) The prohibition against adultery commands men to not have affairs with married women. Both the wives & their lovers would be committing adultery against the womens' *husbands*. But an 'unfaithful' husband would NOT be committing adultery against his *wife*. There was no such divine prohibition for men. They could freely sleep with any unmarried woman without sin. (Well, there might have been some other conditions, like avoiding 'foreign' women, whatever that was all about.) And there is no law that says "thou shalt not kill". The law is: don't murder. That is, only kill when it's allowed. Killing is permitted in all sorts of circumstances; in fact god has often *ordered* humans to kill, including sometimes the innocent.
At a time in my life when I needed help the most, when psychology, and the medical community couldn't help me, I started reading the Bible and 6 months later I was feeling better. Coincidence ?
It distracted you from your problems for 6 months. I've been an atheist for 30+ years and I regularly go on biblical deep dives. It doesn't make the god any more real or true.

I saw that documentary and it was the first thing I thought of when I saw the picture on the thumbnail!
A boat built by a bloke from the Netherlands. Then another boat built by a bloke from the Netherlands. That's not just Double Dutch, that's Mental.
Definitely mental, since it was both boats built by the same bloke. What a waste of money. Money that could have gone to help people.
A Shipwreck before it was launched...Pass.

A strange comfort for me in the States.
Yes. Idiots are everywhere.
there a plenty of other Christmas decorations the city could put up instead of the religous ones, but no they always want the christian ones
And people don't realize Christmas is largely taken from Saturnalia

The state motto of NH is “Live Free or Die”… as someone with family connections up there, I can affirm Jess’s info is fairly accurate.

Maybe The Onion will buy the 3/4 Ark façade.
It’s a building, not an ark.
Sounds like these European versions are actually boats but not accurate so they’re not arks.
There no way I waste even a mere cent to buy that fairy tale boat.
What if one turned it into a museum about all the ways we know a flood didn’t happen?

Sadly the kind who would break up a statue have things like bats and guns, person in the statue would not fare well.
I'm so glad most young people are now more critical, commonsencical, and curious from when i was young.
*Commonsensical.
IIRC, the Dutch "ark" was only 230 feet long and build on top of a steel barge. So it's about as close to the original ark as the USS Iowa.
Especially as it is nothing like the "box" in the fairytale. Ark = Box not boat.
@@dogwalker666yup unless someone thinks the Ark of the Covenant was a boat, Noah’s Ark was just a box with one window and a door.
There was never an Ark in the first place.
@soyevquirsefron990 exactly, The utter lack of ventilation is only the start of the problems.
If the arc guys were real Christian’s the money would have helped the poor.

Since there are random vandalizers around, Concord should remove all displays to protect them from the marauding mobs!!!

It looks like a fixer upper that won’t work as advertised, like carry a gazillion animals and their food.
Noah's homeless shelter ???
Noah never existed.
Is this the one in KY? It was built with tax payer funds. The tax payers have some ownership in it. My opinion.
Like Cities and states own sports stadiums that taxes and loans by the cities pay for but do they get a cut of the door profits or TV broadcast rights from this?
No. The ark they talk about is in the Netherlands.
Great combinations of topics. Enjoyed the show 😁
When you own a boat, the only good days are the first day you buy it and the day you sell it.
Jessica, your recommendation for "Savos San General Outstanding" podcast is unhelpful. It cannot be found.
That could be because you might not be looking for the right title. It's not "Savos San General Outstanding". It's _"Sawbones In General"._ Try looking for _that,_ you might be more successful.

You know...gonna have to pass on this, first of all, it doesn't float, and it's not a boat, it's a fiction museum.
Noah’s barge
I would buy it just to put up signs on how this part and this part and this part of the story is inaccurate. 😂

How does one buy something that doesn't exist?
"You've got to have FAITH!!"
@charleslipscomb2567 faith is a myth.
I forgot about the part of the bible where Jesus told them to bully others unlike them and to destroy their things. Silly me.
It can't even hold all the animals from our local zoo.
Offence is taken, never given. 🐐❤👍🎄
Bogomils were what would now be called gnostics. They are believed to be one of the roots of the more famous Cathars.
You have some of the best one liners.
Turns out, the Ark was just a Dutch barge.
There's a film about all the people who have built "ark" boats.
10 commandments as a deterrent to school shootings would work as well as just say no.
Paint it red and put a ladder on it.

I have to laugh. That looks like a happy diesel version of "Thomas".

Is that te one in Texas ,Tennessee, south carolina , or the one in Disney World ?
In Latin and french "ARC " is what the English ( and murkans) call a "BOW".
That lookes like some sort of barge
Different spelling. Ark is the massive barge that the fictional Noah built. Not cognate with arc. The two words aren't related.
