This is a wonderful, powerful video. I was talking with a gentleman of a different ethnicity, and I explain our differences like this... Go to a paint store and ask for a sample sheet of every shade of brown that exists. You will find every ethnic skin tone on this sheet. Being one race, we are also one color, brown, we just show different shade tones of brown.
Well said!
I've used the example of, if we lined up every human being in one line, with the darkest skinned person on one end and the lightest skinned person on the other end, would you find any dividing lines in there? No! The skin tones would shade gradually from dark to light without any dividing lines.

Uh if the bible says it happened then it happened
When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”
Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off-for all whom the Lord our God will call.”
If you use Acts 2:38 as the means for salvation, you will go straight to hell!!
That is A gospel; but it's not the gospel. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 is the gospel for the church age.
Facts are fun! But they don't take the place of faith and the testimony of the Holy Spirit that gives us truth. I had my faith for years before they presented these truths. People need to want to believe without coercion and having proof.
Which is the definition of Faith!
Believing something without any evidence creates a society of zombies who blindly follow authority without questioning anything. It leads to a dumb population who can't come to any conclusions on their own and it is dangerous. Anyone who tells you not to ask questions is not your friend and you should immediately be asking way more questions.
Yea, my faith in Allah the Most Merciful allowed me to receive revelation directly from Him that the Christian Bible is the corrupted word of Allah and that the Quran is the infallible, accurate representation of His will. I know from this divine revelation that anything Christians say in their feeble attempt to refute me is by definition based on flawed foundations and must be discarded as such. Faith really is powerful.
God never asked for blind faith. Do you think He parted the Red Sea so the people might think there could be a god out there somewhere? Read Ezekiel: the theme of the whole book is Israel will know I am the Lord, their enemies will know I am the Lord, just plain everybody will know I am the Lord... when I accomplish all that I said would. Faith is built on evidence. If you believe there is a God just because someone wrote a book and said, "God wrote this", you are not faithful, you are gullible. There are over 2,300 scientific facts recorded in the Bible that were verifiably written before they were discovered. Bibles average 1,800 pages. God filled that book to overflowing with evidence so nobody could be accused of being gullible, only faithful.
@@lilarrin1220 You made my point for me. Your blind faith prevents you from learning the Truth. You have fallen victim of to God's promise that He would send a strong delusion so that those who do not love truth will cling to lies. Read the Bible. Read the Quran. Read the Book of Morons... I meant Mormon. Read Charles Darwin's Origin of Species. Compare and decide based on facts, your feelings will lie to you.
AMEN..Remember God Almighty did this…my mother was a Bible Scholar and she believed that He May rendered the animals to be docile….just her opinion but God is The GREAT I AM🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing the biblical world view of creation. In 1966 I was attending a Christian college and a supporter of this view spoke at my campus, introducing me to the works of John C Whitcomb and Henry M Morris, authors of "The Genesis Flood, and other books that support this world view. It was a refreshing view that drew me in. Their work parallels your position.

I'm sorry you swallowed that load of nonsense. Try reading some science books... you still have time to leave this world with a realistic understanding of what's going, instead of grinning like a simpleton with a head full of fairy tales.
Yea no offense but even God in his own book doesn't like us and has tried to kill us over and over, but does send his son to die for us... oh wait he was resurrected in life. But every one else needs to die before they can live for all eternity. Just saying don't mistake religion for science, you can be educated in both but only one works with the physical world, hence science doesnt acknowledge God in their studies and it has been shown he is not needed for the scientific view of the world but when you take the bible in a very literal sense you require miracles for every event, and why doesn't he have to do that now

The government runs on lies; politicians lie all the time; so if the highest places in the (material) world rely on trickery and subterfuge then wouldn’t it make sense that an even higher place in the (immaterial) world would rely on truth; the whole truth; and nothing but the truth; is there not evil and corruption in this world; but reck ye little man of faith lest you become dismayed; for all things in life both good and bad collapses into GODS glorious plan; and so whenever an evil dictator tells you that if you tell a lie long enough that it ultimately becomes the truth; what they are in fact telling you is the GODS honest truth; funny how that works ain’t it 🙂
"In the beginning..." a perfect, all-powerful, all-loving god created humans, whom he knew were imperfectly created, as was his intention, and so he punished them for being created the way He made them.
He laid out arbitrary laws that contradicted the instincts he had instilled in these humans, then punished them for having those instincts. The laws themselves were not important. No amount of fornication or wearing wool with cotton or eating shellfish could have any effect whatsoever on God, because he was all-powerful. He just made these rules because they aligned with the superstitions of the time.
God blamed all of mankind's problems on "free will", when in fact he had the power to create a universe where free will still existed, but sin did not, because that's what "all-powerful" means. But he chose to create the crappy universe, fill it with people who had instinctive drives to commit certain acts, then to ban those acts. Because he loves us so much.
God then made a special rule requiring that everyone love his Son, even those people who had never and will never meet his son. God made sure that only a fraction of a percentage of the population, during a very tiny period of time, would EVER meet his son. Then he condemned to hell anyone who didn't believe in him. As a special gift to go with this special rule, god created brains, which discovered science and reason. These Gifts helped to make sure a LOT of people didn't believe in his son, because he made sure to hide all evidence of his son. Because he loves us so much.
Since the resurrection of his son and his ascension into heaven, God & Son have remained hidden away in heaven, watching as war after war has been waged about whose god is the real god, and whose interpretation of the Bible is correct. God & Son COULD have appeared on earth at any time, cleared up all the misunderstandings, and brought peace, but after much deliberation and soul-searching, God & Son decided..."Meh." Because they love us so much.
So that's why you must love God & Son with all your heart: they are a cruel, sadistic duo who INVENT reasons to send your sorry soul to hell. Do whatever you must to appease their bloodlust and obey their arbitrary whims or they will burn you forever. Because they love you so much!
Question for the YECs here - *what physical evidence establishes a time for the Flood of approx. 4400 years ago?* Surely such a world destroying event should have left evidence of when it occurred. Something like "no lake has more than 4400 yearly varves". Or "no ice core samples show more than 4400 yearly melt patterns". Or "no tree ring data shows more than 4400 years". Anyone have any physical data which established the timeline?

Coal deposits the world over, mass amounts of vegetation buried under massive amounts of sediment caused the coal deposits. There's not enough vegetation on the earth currently to produce the same amount of coal as the flood buried. Different global climate preflood.

One thing I wonder is if the flood was the world or the known world at that time? it makes sense a flood of that scale would happen in the desert but to say the entire world flooded(Americas, Antarctica etc.) makes no connections in my understanding of science, history and whatnot so that simplifies how many animals would be needed to fit in the ark because of course it happened I mean what did they just make it all up ?
Excellent analysis regarding the Christian Worldview of Creation. Thank you, and God bless.
As incorrect as the view might be.
Complete and utter nonsense of an analysis, would perhaps have been a better choice of words.
Thank tou so much for your motivational speech regarding the way we should instruct our children in order to help them to have strong roots in faith.
The children would be better served to have a strong educational system then a strong faith.. just saying

I stopped after she said men were the cause for the sin that introduced death. Don't know what bible she got that from but mine says Eve was the first one to be seduced by a snake and disobey God's instruction to not eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge. Pax
@@rduff1999might have meant man as in “mankind”. But regardless, if the story were true man didn’t actually sin. How can you sin if you don’t know right from wrong? In the eyes of God Adam and Eve should have been no different than an infant in terms of innocence
@@rduff1999 Well this couple in Genesis 3:22 never ate the fruit of the tree of life so they would eventually die therefore death is not the fruit of sin.
In a similar vein to your overall point about the importance of an accurate, realistic portrayal of the flood account, can someone tell me why some choose to include a prow in the ark design? The ark was not a ship, it was a life raft. It didn't have to sail, and had no propulsion. There is no mention, to my memory, of such a bow, and it significantly increases the difficulty of the construction.
That was one of my points also. Here is the rest of my argument:
The length and width of the ark in KY is probably close to being correct, as Dr. Purdom explains; however, I seriously doubt that it had a bow and a stern. It was most likely shaped like a rectangular barge - square at both ends. All it had to do was float, it had nowhere to go and no rudder for steering. Though Dr. Purdom defends their replica as being realistic in size, it still has the "storybook" shape.
Dr. Purdom's concern over Christianity being ridiculed by unbelievers has far less to do with a storybook image of the ark than it does with AiG's claim that the earth/universe is but thousands of years old. The sad part is that a lot of the kids who grow up hearing only young earth teaching later learn good science and realizer the young earth teaching was all "smoke and mirrors;" so they "throw out the baby with the bathwater" and drop out of Christianity altogether. This wouldn't happen had they been informed that the young earth view is just one interpretation and that many conservative, Bible-believing Christians believe that Genesis can be legitimately interpreted in an ancient earth/universe context without allegorizing or labelling it a myth. If they read Dr. John Lennox's book, "Seven Days that Divide the World," or Hugh Ross's books, "Navigating Genesis," or, "A Matter of Days" they would understand that the old earth/universe view does not require acceptance of Darwinian evolution.
It would be far better if the young person abandoned the young earth view for the old earth view, (or even theistic evolution) rather than totally drop out of Christianity and become an atheist or agnostic. Unfortunately, Answers in Genesis seems to do their best to "vaccinate" their followers from any other view held by Christians by labelling them as "heretics," "compromisers," "evolutionists," etc. This is not helping the cause of Christ, but perhaps it is necessary to keep the revenue flowing to AiG. They cannot afford to have anyone "jump ship." After all, they have tens of millions of dollars of other people's money invested in this project which requires hundreds of people to keep it "afloat.".
Four hundred years ago, the church was divided over the issue of whether the earth or the sun was at the center of the solar system (geocentrism versus heliocentrism). There were also non-churchmen who argued strongly for geocentrism. Churchmen who held to geocentrism argued that the Scriptures were to be understood properly as teaching that the earth was stationary and the heavenly bodies revolved around it. 1 Chron. 16:30 “Tremble before Him, all the earth. The world also is firmly established, It shall not be moved.” Geocentrists used this verse (as well as Ps. 93:1; 96:10; 104:5 and even Eccl. 1:5) to support the view that the Earth was stationary and at the center of the universe (solar system) and not the sun. If Answers in Genesis is going to be consistent with their strict, wooden literal hermeneutical method, they should also hold to geocentrism, but they do not.
@@Chazd1949Yes, I fear there is a lot of truth in what you say. I have noticed that many of this AiG videos have antagonistic, click bait titles that seem to suggest clicks and ad revenue are more important than genuinely reaching hearts. Not all of them are posted this way, but many are. I think you're very correct that there is a real danger of some throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I too believe Genesis can be read without apology but without a young-earth view. I also believe it's remarkable how many people read Genesis 1:1 and fail to see that there is no time period attached to the creation of the entire universe and earth itself before the start of the following 'week'. Thanks for the comment.
The most realistic account is the account about that it did not happen at all
Such a flood would have destroyed most vegetation on earth so what could the animals and birds eat after leaving the ark? Also here in New Zealand we have the kiwi, a flightless bird so which bird did that evolve from and how did the kangaroos get to Australia?

Considering feed and water for the animals as well as the people on the arc is one component. Then there would be the wastes. God had his hand on this event and as such would have had his divine hand on the requirement for food and water. As such some food and water may have been required, but much reduced. We need to look to The Exodus for inspiration. God fed the Hebrew people by Manna, birds falling from the sky and water flowing out of a rock. Divine intervention.
We must remember the flood and the ark was carried out and protected supernaturally!
Ok so wait. If you believe in this God told him to build and ark. Wouldn’t God just suspend the animals from being hungry, violent noisy etc etc. so wouldn’t need food. As for water….well it was rain gin for forty days and nights. Plenty of fresh water every hour
It doesn't say 6 24 hour days. We don't know how long days were during that period.
It does , day and night means day and night, one rotation of the earth, get it?

@@cedriceric9730 Hey genius, it doesn't say 24 hours because we don't know how long the days were back then. Get it?
Gen. 1 clearly says the day and evening constituted a day. That has never changed at any point.
Nobody is going to be lost because they shared the wrong shaped ark, or were told a Bible "story," or anything that some Christian said not quite right enough. We know the seed is sown on all types of soil and is not always on good soil. Few will be saved and most will be lost. It's God who saves people, not Christians who do the saving. The absolute precision of what is shared with unbelievers is not going to be the determining factor in someone coming to Christ. It's as simple as anyone could imagine...confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. The Holy Spirit has been sent into the world to convict the world of sin, judgement and righteousness. He's already working in the heart of all men. There's no reason to worry about crafting the "perfect" sermon. Just as your righteousness is filthy rags before God, also your efforts are not the foundation of anyone's response to His gospel. That is the result of God's work through His Spirit in the heart of those He saves. Don't worry about the imperfect efforts of those who preach the Gospel. Even Paul noted that even if those who mean harm preach the Gospel, the power of the Gospel can save.

The sordid irony in this is that while professing Christians know that Noah took pairs of animals into the ark, they dishonestly claim that the kosher law didn't exist until the Sinai Covenant was ratified. If they look at God's instructions to Noah, they can clearly see that Noah understood the distinction between clean and unclean animals, therefore this law isn't "Mosaic".
Is there a link to the study showing that the ark was the optimal dimensions? I would really be interested in reading this!
It's a physical impossibility.
and don't get me started on the water required
A cubit would have been an average dimension based on the average length of a man's forearm -- 'man' because it was men who generally did the building/construction. A standard measurement relating to a body part would have originated from the dimension of the body part of those who were actually doing the wotk.
The production value is getting a lot better, pretty nice!
The more money they scam, the better the scam gets.
The question of how to interpret the “days” in Genesis 1 has been debated for hundreds of years within the Christian church. The early chapters of Genesis were explored for their theological message (and not for scientific claims) by many notable Christian thinkers long before scientific evidence for the great age of the universe began to accumulate. The diversity and sophistication of pre-modern views of Genesis reminds us that the best interpretation is not obviously six 24-hour days.
in short a day to God is not a day to us, a day to God may be centuries or even eons or billions of years, for a being who is eternal, a day is more than likly to be a BILLION years , so yes God could have created the world in 6 BILLION years and not days. Think about dog years, a dog year is considerably shorter than a man's becase we LIVE LONGER

Excellent presentation.
Some issues that have come to me through study might help explain how a worldwide flood was possible.
Geologists contend mountains are created when tectonic plates collide. They also insist at one time all the continents were one. They call it pangea.
Ironically, the bible also mentions something similar in Genesis 1:9- “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” so according to that the water in one place and the land in a separate place.
If land was one piece then that suggests there were none of the high mountains we have today. With that in mind it didn't required 30,000 feet of water to cover the highest areas of land. The state where I live has no ground higher than1, 915 feet. There are monstrous ravines in the oceans as deep as the mountains are high. The mountains were most likely created during or after the flood. Some salt water fossils have been found at 10,000 feet. But they could have been deposited before that section of land rose to its current height.
Noah and family shouldn't have needed to tend all the animals all the time. Many animals hibernate for months at a time. That would greatly reduce the amount of care they would need. In hibernation their metabolism reduces drastically. That would mean less food and water. And surely a god who can create a whole planet of living creatures could easily instruct them to take turns hibernating.
Animals that hibernate do so in colder environments when conditions are not good. And most don't hibernate at all. Animals like hummingbirds and shrews need to eat constantly every day or they die. It's not like there's an abundance of flowers on the ark that give hummingbirds nectar, nor are there hundreds of prey items for Shrews to eat on board. Then of course there's parasites and diseases, which also needed to be on the ark otherwise they wouldn't exist either. And most diseases are species specific, so every animal on board would be infected with every disease possible to have. I don't even need to mention the inbreeding. The flood story is silly and stupid beyond any reasonable belief.
"If land was one piece then that suggests there were none of the high mountains we have today."
No. It doesn't suggest that at all. Pangea was only the last supercontinent, which was 200 to 300 million years ago, not 4,000. There were at least two others before that (Gondwana and Pannotia) and probably more. What do you think formed when those supercontinents came together?
The ark was a large box, a very large rectangle; no shaping because it wasn't going anywhere. Also a pet peeve of mine to see clean shaved, polished timber! It took 120 years to build. Give Noah and his sons a break.
Pet peeve of mine is when “god” ordered Israelites to slaughter innocent women and children, specifically slicing open womens’ stomached to kill their unborn.
@@jacksonrelaxin3425 Stay tuned to see how she justifies that particular passage in the awful, genocidal book known as the Bible 🤣
@@jacksonrelaxin3425lol what about the time God sent down two she-bears to maul a horde of children to death for making a bald joke. Good times
@@jacksonrelaxin3425 Wow, that's a big jump from a small annoyance (a peeve) re the ark's measurements to having a barney with the creator. Where exactly is the scripture that mentions slicing open women's stomachs? I recall the order when entering the land of Israel (Joshua 6:20) that the Israelites were to kill everyone including the animals that lived in the towns and when they did not, they suffered the consequences of being influenced by false gods, idolatry, immorality etc. Actually when they were unfaithful (Joshua 7) they died too. God was quite precise with His treatment "eye for an eye" sort of thing? We are actually watching similar events taking place now in these days; Israel, now mostly secular, is having to fight radical terrorists and they will use the same principles to fight their enemy, namely eradicate them.
The world is violent, particularly in these days but if you don't believe in the God of the bible then you don't believe in Satan either so we are probably wasting our time.
The Creator is angry with mankind in general for their rejection of Him and His gift of salvation and the people are taking no note, just as Moses wrote...until the door was shut.

Trust me. The visual portrayal of the ark is the least problematic part of your argument.
we are currently in the "Little Season". And it was only after the flood that man and beast had to hunt for food, prior to that, everyone could sustain themselves completely off of the land so that should do away with the question of how animals didnt eat each other on the ark.
The description of the animals on the ark needs our attention. First she said that a pair of each of animals was on the ark. In the equine example, was the pair zebras, horses or what? She said, for an example, that the pair somehow creates a zorse or zonkey. So was the pair not of the same species or was it? Two zebras never produce a zorse. And, a zebra and a horse always produce a zorse. She didn't explain that relationship. Even more importantly, a cross-bred zorse is infertile. Two zorses don't reproduce to another zorse, they produce nothing. Zorse and zonkey are not new species, they are both infertile and are not part of nature. Nature is pretty solid on the idea that life follows within species, not across them. For instance, you don't see blue jays mating with cardinals to create a new purple bird species. This explanation of animals on the ark is not convincing.
The funniest part is they can't invoke evolution to explain it, because they'd have to accept it exists, so instead they pretend that hybridization is how kinds diversified...which is impossible

@johndelong5574 - You aren't doing Christians any favor by spouting such silliness. Stick to the truth. We want respect.
If they're claiming many different types of animals quickly came about from one single variety in a single spot, why isn't there any major variation in humans -or even house cats or horses or rats or mice or snakes that humans have seen/known for a long time- over that same time period? Why isn't there any documentation of these animals changing over time aside from specifically dogs? Why isn't there any record of bones or fossils _anywhere at all_ indicating that such animals came from that region (it's not that they're rare, there's no cases _anywhere)?_ How could have the animals be living on the other side of the earth where there is no land bridge? Are they suggesting that evolution through natural selection is a very real phenomenon? If not what do they call it and how is it different?
Unrelated to all this, regardless of where the flood water _came from,_ where did it _go?_ Where is any sort of evidence where the water came from and where it went?
*Unrelated to all this, regardless of where the flood water came from, where did it go? Where is any sort of evidence where the water came from and where it went?*
The general idea here, whether the YEC in question subscribes to catastrophic plate tectonics or hydroplate, is that the overall sea level was much lower then than it is now by virtue of most of that water being locked away below ground. When the flood happens, this water is released and the continental shuffling produces enough radical change in the geography that _then_ there'd be enough room for all that water.
The length and width of the ark in KY is probably close to being correct, as Dr. Purdom explains; however, I seriously doubt that it had a bow and a stern. It was most likely shaped like a rectangular barge - square at both ends. All it had to do was float, it had nowhere to go and no rudder for steering. Though Dr. Purdom defends their replica as being realistic in size, it still has the "storybook" shape.
Dr. Purdom's concern over Christianity being ridiculed by unbelievers has far less to do with a storybook image of the ark than it does with AiG's claim that the earth/universe is but thousands of years old. The sad part is that a lot of the kids who grow up hearing only young earth teaching later learn good science and realizer the young earth teaching was all "smoke and mirrors;" so they "throw out the baby with the bathwater" and drop out of Christianity altogether. This wouldn't happen had they been informed that the young earth view is just one interpretation and that many conservative, Bible-believing Christians believe that Genesis can be legitimately interpreted in an ancient earth/universe context without allegorizing or labelling it a myth. If they read Dr. John Lennox's book, "Seven Days that Divide the World," or Hugh Ross's books, "Navigating Genesis," or, "A Matter of Days" they would understand that the old earth/universe view does not require acceptance of Darwinian evolution.
It would be far better if the young person abandoned the young earth view for the old earth view, (or even theistic evolution) rather than totally drop out of Christianity and become an atheist or agnostic. Unfortunately, Answers in Genesis seems to do their best to "vaccinate" their followers from any other view held by Christians by labelling them as "heretics," "compromisers," "evolutionists," etc. This is not helping the cause of Christ, but perhaps it is necessary to keep the revenue flowing to AiG. They cannot afford to have anyone "jump ship." After all, they have tens of millions of dollars of other people's money invested in this project which requires hundreds of people to keep it "afloat.".
Four hundred years ago, the church was divided over the issue of whether the earth or the sun was at the center of the solar system (geocentrism versus heliocentrism). There were also non-churchmen who argued strongly for geocentrism. Churchmen who held to geocentrism argued that the Scriptures were to be understood properly as teaching that the earth was stationary and the heavenly bodies revolved around it. 1 Chron. 16:30 “Tremble before Him, all the earth. The world also is firmly established, It shall not be moved.” Geocentrists used this verse (as well as Ps. 93:1; 96:10; 104:5 and even Eccl. 1:5) to support the view that the Earth was stationary and at the center of the universe (solar system) and not the sun. If Answers in Genesis is going to be consistent with their strict, wooden literal hermeneutical method, they should also hold to geocentrism, but they do not.

Why are there supposed pictures of the ark with curved sides & rudder? Does ark imply a rectangular shaped box? If someone will build a model, from where do curved sides come?
AIG's goal is to con people into believing the Ark was a real vessel. To that end they portray it as looking like a modern ship people are familiar with. That's despite the fact there is nothing in the Bible describing the Ark as having curved sides, or a rudder, or a pointed bulbous bow, or a giant wooden sail-like structure on the stern. 🙄

I have no problem believing that the flood took place. There is a lot of geological evidence now when you combine geological evidence from many countries, but I do not believe the arc was designed as shown in this video.
The arc had to be sea worthy, no doubt, but I do not believe that Noah spent most of his time cowering below deck as 100 foot waves crashed down from above.
I would be more inclined to believe that it had a simple box construction with no curved lines. The curved lines you mentioned are called curved chines in a boat. Noah had no propulsion unit so it need not have a prow. All it had to do was float. Under God,s protection, it would survive, unlike the Wyoming, mentioned, that was 450 feet long and sunk in a storm in 1924. I would actually think that Noah experienced much calm water as 100 foot waves split and passed to each side of him, much like the water was split to accommodate the Israelites at the Gulf of Acuba crossing. The animals were probably kept in stasis or hibernation most of the time.
After the rain subsided Noah could go on deck and watch a lot of the action going on around him. God probably gave him a dose of sunshine even, splitting the clouds to do so. In fact the area that Noah was in did not experience a lot of geological activity except for the formation of the rift valley that now contains the Jordan River ,Sea of Gallalee and the Dead Sea.
I would say that the arc would have been built like a box simply because it's carrying volume capacity would have been significantly more, approaching 15 to 20 percent.
The fact that we are here is a testimony to the fact that it worked, making the logical assumption that the flood did take place.
Believing that the flood took place is easier for me than believing that Jesus and God are one and the same being. How could he not know the day or the hour when he will be coming to do a second cleansing of the earth. The only reason I can think of is that his Father never told him. The flood took place all right but is there something that God does not know?
As someone who was raised apostolic Christian and has studied religion thoroughly over the years, this felt a little hard to watch. To watch this video without a huge amount of skepticism would be a disservice to your intelligence.

Lots of archaeology reports since the late 1940s on the finding of the Noah’s ark in the mountains of Ararat in turkey. On 66 and I remember as a young woman reading an article in the National Geographic of this finding.
Then they looked closely and found it wasn't an ark. Just rocks.
If you’re talking about Ron Wyatt then no. None of his findings are real. Even AIG say that

@@roscius6204 yes, I seem to remember that happening with many storys and books.
The article you read was about what was posted in the military magazine *_"The Stars and Stripes"_* where it was shown a picture of *_Noah's Ark,_* having the Ark a big hole in the right side, and this picture appeared in the front cover in one of its editions, presumably of *_Tunishia_* in 1941-1943?
I wish you would explain that breeding of kinds outside of soecies like equs which is only genus level,are normally but not always sterile.
There have been a vey few mules that could reproduce.
If people here this and say "but mules are sterile" they will not believe it.
I hope i was clear on this.
Not just mules are sterile. Breeding different species might sometimes result in fertile offspring, but not reliably - which you would need if you only have 1 pair of animals to repopulate the earth. Only breeding inside the same species produces fertile offspring reliably - it's part of the definition of species.
I must always be focused on my own repentance.
One question that I'VE always had is: How did all of the animals from North and South America get to the Middle East?
Hello, I think this might help:
The continents we see today were not the same before the flood. Because of seismic and tectonic movements, the land shifted. Plus, the power of water eroding rock is often underestimated. Look at the floods in Libya and Yellowstone.
I personally believe that the land was much different than today, possibly even one continent as the theory of Pangea suggests. I also believe God has power to do miracles. Either way, if the land was broken up or all one clump, I still believe God could make it happen.
Because there was no Africa or the Middle East in the Pre-Flood world, no American continents either, just 1 Pangaean Supercontinent and 1 Ocean. No separate plates, no mountains or volcanoes, or canyons. Every piece of land was accessible on foot. Rivers we know today, like the Nile and the Euphrates, didn't exist back then. The modern Euphrates was merely named after the original. Also the Ark landed in the Middle East, we don't know where it originally departed from because that land no longer exists, at least not in the way it used to.
Notice how they just make something up to answer your question? There is absolutely no evidence that the continents were all one land mass only 4 thousand years ago.
@@taqresu5865 Science says the the plates move about as fast as fingernails grow, which is about 1.2 inches per year. If the flood only happened 4K years ago, then that means that the plates have only moved less than a mile. If that's the case, then we SHOULD still be living on Pangea.

6:15, no but apparently, he could manage ventilating that boat without modern metal working techniques. You know like the modern one made to replicate Noah's supposed ark does.
It makes perfect sense as to what he was preaching. Put yourself back in Noah's time you have just been told to build the ark. Your family will help you. You are building an ark that is not in the water. So people will wonder why you are building an ark on dry land. No doubt you will tell them why you are building the ark. Those that were preached to didn't listen to what Noah and his family had to say.
We have to do more than just confess and believe. Faith without works is dead just as the bible book James tells us. Faith won't help us one bit if we take zero action based on that faith.
The planet didn't do anything wrong where it needs to be destroyed. What the bible talks about that will get destroyed that are old heavens and old earth are governments and mankind that is alienated to God. That is what will be destroyed. The new heavens is God's kingdom government and the new earth is obedient mankind living on the same earth that we are living on.
Look a fiery hell is a false teaching that came from pagan religions. The true punishment for the wicked is complete destruction. To the point where even God and everyone else that knew that person forget they even existed. That is more loving than a fiery hell.

True
How do you know God said it? How do you know it’s not just people saying God told them to say it?
@@leroyjenkins3744 there's a mode of consistency we can see when we evaluate what the scriptures say that points to something greater than human intelligence. For instance, Genesis 1 says several things about nature and the origin of the universe that mere humans would have no way of knowing before the scientific method had been developed, yet the scientific method has allowed us to verify that in fact these things are true. For instance, it says the universe had a beginning. Well for a long time atheistic scientists believed the universe had no beginning, it just always existed, because a universe that had no beginning wouldn't require a creator; no human was actually present to witness the creation of the universe, so atheistic scientists opted for the notion that the cosmos had just always existed. Well scientists eventually came to observe the fact that the universe is expanding, which means if we could back extrapolate it would retract to a single point, meaning the universe indeed did have a beginning and the Bible had it right all along. Pretty much every claim in scripture that can be verified or falsified by science has been verified. The fact that people could have written claims in ancient times that are scientifically consistent without understanding the scientific method is quite compelling and points to a higher intelligence at work. If you have not done so already please accept the higher intelligence at work; declare Jesus as your Lord, believe in your heart that God raised him from death and you will be saved (Romans 10:9).
I have a question about the fact that you take genesis literally and not figuratively even though there are clear inconsistencies with real life observations of the world. To give just one simple example, The tower of Babel, if such an event as the dispersion of people by changing their languages suddenly took place would we not be able track all our current languages back to that very event and find evidence of its occurrence. This is not the only troubling thing in the story of Babel, according to the story God carried out the language dispersion to stop the people from reaching the heavens. How could people have built a tower with just bricks and primitive tools without it breaking down? The highest a brick only building could go is about 12 - 13 stories. How could 13 stories ever get anywhere near the 'heavens'. If the story is true we would have to assume that the tower was taller than the Burj Khalifa which is made of concrete, steel, modern tools, etc. Why did God not prevent the Burj Khalifa from being built, or humans going to the moon or rovers to mars?
What about also 2 peter says 1 day to God is 1,000 years to us ? I think the 6 days of creation is actually 6,000 years also plus history of Adam living for 933 years so all after adam before Noah was like 50,000 years plus biblical history is around 4k-5k also the genealogy in genesis 5 if you look what the names mean in English from the name in hebrew is another messianic prophesy.
The meaning of the Second Peter passage is that God is not subject to time, and therefore is faithful to keep His promises. It would be a mistake to use it as an interpretive yardstick of 'day' in Genesis, as there's no textual coordination between the two passages. The Hebrew word _yom_ is translated 'day' in the Creation account in Genesis, and everywhere in Scripture and in contemporary writing where _yom_ is used, it means a literal 24-hour period. There are other words used when a figurative or poetic meaning is intended, such as 'the day of the Lord', etc.
Besides, the impulse to increase greatly the literal 6 24-hour days of the Creation is something that non-believers insist on to try and shoehorn in time for evolution or otherwise explain away His miracles, and unfortunately something we sometimes fall prey to, in order to not appear in their eyes as unscientific rubes. Not judging you, I'm just saying in general, and that peer pressure is oh so very strong. But we believe in a God Who spoke everything into existence, displayed His power in the Flood, in freeing the Israelites from Egyptian slavery, validated Jesus as His Son and Messiah, and Who will give us a home with Him in Heaven throughout all eternity. I think He can handle creating the universe in 144 hours. Because really, He could have done it in a timeless instant if He so chose....
Does that mean , by your interpretation, that we should only have a sabbath rest every seven thousand years, for a thousand years.. not every seven days???
@@allyssaedwards1261 no I'm speaking that God is not bound by time as people are also jesus says the sabbath was made for makind not mankind for the sabbath. Also romans 9:6 says to observe everyday to the lord, under the new covenant we don't have to observe the sabbath as law as Paul says observe everyday unto the lord.
I'm not sure it really matters what people imagine the Ark to have been shaped like. I'm sure most who read the description has a basic image of it in their heads, but as it was over 5000 years ago it isn't a major deal.
One does have to wonder, if AIG truly believed the flood story, as laid out in the genesis fable, why is it they built it 100s of miles from the nearest large body of water? Why was it built as a tourist trap instead of a "floating zoo complete with food & water storage areas"? Here was their perfect moment to show off how all those kinds could fit along with enough food and water to live 1 year and 17 days PLUS AT LEAST one full growing season, preparing the soil to harvesting the crops. Which means there also had to be space for plenty of seeds and cuttings to start new plants, enough to feed ALL those "KINDS" until the next year's harvest. Here they had a perfect opportunity to show how 8 people could keep up with feeding, watering and cleaning up after all those animals, with only ONE 1 cubit opening near the roof. Here was their perfect opportunity to show just what "kinds" they thought were actually on the ark, and how well they could all fit together. AND YET, what did they build? Certainly nothing seaworthy. Certainly nothing to take advantage of this golden opportunity. No, they built a tourist trap for gullible believers to come and empty their wallets. AND the zoo they did build? Why it's OUTSIDE of the ark, holds far fewer animals, and I'm betting takes up far more ground space than the ark dimensions actually allow for. One has to wonder why? Might it be that they don't really believe and are just bilking and milking their followers 🤔🤔
Don't talk down the real evidence for evolution when THIS is the best evidence you can produce for your flood. A boat that can't even float and wouldn't hold enough animals to save those that are native to the middle east. How much did this tourist trap cost tax payers? What was it, $50 million or so?
Well for one thing, it would be cruel to keep animals in there indefinitely without an urgent reason, like say, a world wide flood.
@@saliadee2564 God could justify the cruelty....

@answersingenesis Why would they need a rudder. ? They were just floating right? Wouldn’t that shape make them tip a lot? Shouldn’t it look more like a cargo ship - more flat? (Or did I miss something)
A rudder keeps you perpendicular to waves. Less rolling and less chance to capsize.
A rudder is used to stabilize the ship, which is what you see from end-to-end going under the ship, it's not a rudder that moves with a steering wheel. Both are used to stabilize the ship, but only one is used to direct where you're going.
@@diannagregg191 A rudder can only keep a ship perpendicular to the waves if it's a *powered* ship. In an unpowered drifting platform like the Ark a rudder is useless.

Noah and His Ark Problems...
Even if Noah could acquire the impossible amount of wood needed to construct it, however, we run into further problems. The Ark would have been a sizable fraction of the size of an Aircraft Carrier or a Battleship, and a wooden boat that size would have been too leaky and flexible to withstand the stresses of global flood conditions. ( It Being smaller then the Titanic )
1. ~7.77 million species of animals (of which 953,434 have been described and cataloged)
2. ~298,000 species of plants (of which 215,644 have been described and cataloged)
3. ~611,000 species of fungi (moulds, mushrooms) (of which 43,271 have been described and cataloged)
4. ~36,400 species of protozoa (single-cell organisms with animal-like behavior, eg. movement, of which 8,118 have been described and cataloged)
5. ~27,500 species of chromista (including, eg. brown algae, diatoms, water moulds, of which 13,033 have been described and cataloged)
Conclusion: Noah supposedly took two pairs of each animal. That means Noah at least has to fill and feed more than 10 million animals in his ship. Don't for get all the waist management. (if we exclude animals living in sea and include insects). Neither description of ark in Bible can satisfy this demands nor any ship ever builded in human history. Story of Noah is probably written by people who thought there were at most several hundreds of species living in the world. Using The Evidence Shows The Ark Could Not Be True... It's Just a Made up Story's “No amount of Evidence will Ever Persuade an. Ignorant Person.”

We need to be a bit better than this. Making statements of fact that are provably false hurt the cause. One example, the bloodhound has been around since 700 AD - that's more than 500 years.
On another note, say you had two young cows (1 bull, 1 heifer). A general rule of thumb is that they need 2-3% of their body weight in daily feed. If you consider 2 animals that are 500 lbs (to start with). Using 2%, that's 7300 lbs of feed to store for 1 year. That does not take into account growth and increasing dietary needs over that 1 year. That's about 70 3 string bales of hay or 150 2 string bales. That's quite a bit of hay for a single family of animals. The point is, it's powerful to say you believe something. The minute you start to say you know something, because of facts, it becomes much less powerful.
It's always going to have to be lies though....
To dig deep into the ark narrative check out the bible projects course on the topic... it's amazing. Tim Mackie is the man!
Mostly sheep-sized land animals in "kind" and able to hibernate. About 52 train-box-sized full of animals. The space needed on the ark was only one level.

At Whom are you opening your mouth and sticking out your tongue?
Are you not a brood of rebels,

I see nothing wrong with simplifying the ark for children. It’s no one’s fault if the only ark that atheists can grasp are the simplified depictions used to explain it to young kids.
If anyone wants to get a real grasp of the accurate dimensions of the Biblical ark, just make the trip to Kentucky and walk in it.
I'm kinda thinking that too. What children's book doesn't have an over-exaggerated drawing. I would think common sense would tell you the real thing is structured much differently than a child's book drawing.
Still wouldnt fit that many animals
@@nuke_man_ai Obviously it did though.
I don't think it needed to fit all pairs of male and female animals. I've seen some crazy crossed animals. I think just time in general what was left to breed after the ark rested set the stage for what we have today. Of course, we also are getting animals that are closer to being extinct as well. @@nuke_man_ai
wouldn't need as many. @@nuke_man_ai
What difference does it make. It's a myth, so people are going to use creative license. In fact, the Jewish authors who wrote it, got the myth from the ancient Sumerians and added details.
An extremely important point about what we tell our children. I learned a lot teaching very young children that the actual facts of the bible account are more fun than the silly drawings often used and I regret learned it after my own children were past that stage. Please parents, this is so important.
A little bit of conjecture in the video but very powerful indeed. Also bill nye is a dummy when he’s like “bro there’s no way Noah could fit all those animals in the ark. There’s a million species on the planet and you couldn’t fit them all on one boat.” T h e b i b l e d o e s n ‘ t s a y s p e c i e s
But somehow there were millions of species as soon as they left the ark.
@@davidgardner863 "As soon as" is very different from 4,000 years later. Did you even watch the video? The point is, the ark could exist while the big bang cannot. From a strictly genetic standpoint, evolution is impossible, not unlikely: impossible. Mutations come from information being cut from the gene pool and only cut from the gene pool. Which means the pool was fuller and deeper in the past. Evolutionists tell us that mutations are the result of additions to the pool and the right combination of such mutations lead to new traits in a species, but not only has such a mutation never been observed, geneticists have proven that such mutations have never occurred. The terrible thing is that even though evolution is dead as a theory and as a science, it is still being taught, not as a viable theory, but as a fact. At least the ark is a viable story, evolution never was.
@@vaeshethblade931 That mutations only lose information and never gain information is one of the dumber Creationist claims for the simple reason whatever one mutation can do, another later mutation can *undo.*
If AAC-->AAG is a LOSS of information then
AAG --> AAC must be a GAIN of information BY DEFINITION.
These events are empirically observed in real life. They're called reverse mutations or back mutations.
@@vaeshethblade931 Why do we find fossils spread across the geological column evenly? Why don't we find a huge chunk of fossils all at the same layer? Why do we see simpler life lower down in the rock layers and more complex life higher up? Why don't we see human fossils at the same depth as dinosaur fossils and visa versa? Why don't we see a huge gap in the fossil record from such a huge and Earth shattering extinction? How did the fish survive the flood? How did saltwater fish survive in less salty water? How did freshwater fish survive in salt water? How did the trees survive? Did Noah have giant aquariums on the ark? What did the carnivores eat? How did the plants repopulate? How did the diseases spread? Did the cows have every strain of cow pox and mad cow disease so they could spread to the new cows? How did the animals that have a lifespan less than 40 days survive long enough to repopulate? If the ark landed in Turkey, how did penguins get to Antarctica? How did kangaroos get to Australia? How did any animals get to the Americas? Why don't we have a huge amount of fossils of every animal spread across the Middle East radiating out from the ark? Where did the water go when the flood finished? If humans were the wicked ones and needed to be eradicated, what did the animals and plants and bacteria and fungi do to deserve mass extinction? Why didn't God just eliminate the humans?
@@vaeshethblade931 I say “as soon as” because many species existed in ancient times as they do now so they didn’t have 4000 years. You obviously know nothing about evolution except what the creationists tell you.
The flood story defies many fields of science and knowledge gained in the last 500 years. The ark as described in Genesis is totally impossible. 4 men could never build such a thing with Bronze Age tools and technology no matter how long they had to do it. Its size could never contain all the animals, their food and water, even if just “kinds” were included, young animals, hibernating, etc. No electricity, no plumbing, no air circulation, no food storage, no waste disposal, and it would leak like crazy and probably break up from the first wave it rode over. And how did all the animals get there? Oh yeah, the continents zoomed around without some how creating enough heat to melt the crust of the earth. And then what about all the land plants? Did they walk to the Middle East? Then all the sea life. Your creationists dismiss that, ignoring the fact that marine plants and animals have requirements such as temperature, salinity, depth, light, tides to name a few. I’ve seen all the creationist videos and none of their evidence makes any sense or is easily explained by eons of time. And you say the ark is a viable story?
Every one of those creation scientists making these videos starts with the Bible as a given. That alone discredits them because real science uses evidence to draw a conclusion rather than making up evidence to fit what they already believe.
Nonsense
Are there any children's books that give accurate pictures and accounts of Noah's Flood and other events in the Bible?
I don't know what you mean by accurate, accurate according to a fictional story of a global flood. Or accurate according to know science?
It's impossible to give accurate pictures and accounts of something that never happened
The Sumerian flood story of Gilgamesh predates the Bible version by about 2000 years. Could be based upon a deluge between 5,000 and 7,000 years ago that hit lands ranging from the Black Sea to what many call the cradle of civilization, the flood plain between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.
I only wish you would have also added an estimate of how many animals could have theoretically fit on the Ark! I don’t remember how many, but I saw another guy discuss it awhile back; he did estimate quite a few more were on than you did, but the quantity was still far lower than what could theoretically fit comfortably.
Does it matter? we are talking about the bible here - not reality.
Why are you even here? If you don’t want to look at actual evidence of truth, then why are you watching a video that provides it?
@@kerrybarneyiii1202 "If you don’t want to look at actual evidence of truth"
Good question - you are here cause you are afraid of evidence, afraid of the truth.
But do go on - try looking for evidence. On that quest you would notice that no matter how much you search you will only ever get your hopes up only to be let down by finding out that it was yet another liar - like "answer is genesis".
And then, if you are honest and actually care about being truthful, you will start noticing that not only is there never any evidence provided for the claims of a flood but also that we have tons and tons of evidence showing that there never was a global flood.
Let's just start with - there is still life around:
If there was a global flood and the animals saved on the arc - how did they survive after the entire planet was devoid of any forms of live, after every edible plant died and all the land was supposedly covered in a mixture of dirt, debris, and rotting animals and plants?
@@fredthe47th "It matters to anyone who values truth."
Those that value truth should also not make false claims like the existence of a global flood.
But yeah, "Most prefer pseudo-science." specially religious people like that as this video with its lies so nicely demonstrates.
WHAT MOST PEOPLE FORGET TO INCLUDE IN THEIR CALCULATIONS is the fact there was more than just 1 pair of some kinds of animals. Like the duck. There was 7 male and female pairs. Dogs and pigs , only 1 pair.
This womans knowledge of science is mind boggling😂😂😂

Great info! God bless!
Misinformation. It's not real
love what you said about the ark and flood and animals. It is all true, but I have a problem with the way you study the Bible. You also pick and choose what part of it you want to trust. That causes millions to never enter the door of salvation. The creation week was not over on the 6th day. God made a holy day of rest and worship on the 7th day. If you can find one verse in the 66 books of the Bible that says the 7th day of the week is no longer holy, but the first day of the week is holy now, I will give you one million $. Jesus rested and worshiped on the 7th day Sabbath. Hebrews 4 tells us "For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works." "There remains therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his." See, you cannot even enter the door of Salvation rest in Jesus and take your children to Sunday school.
In this excellent talk, Dr. Purdom startled me by saying things I had said a couple of days before I saw the video. (I attribute that to having some teachers in common.) 'Scuse me while I schedule this on social(ist) media.
Did she also get her Doctorate the same place as Kent Hovid and the other creationist did?
Here's a thought: LOOK UP HER CREDENTIALS.@@salvagemonster3612
Yet, the most perplexing question still persists: Why would God need anything from Noah, because couldn't God just save all of the animals by his own will alone? d0_ob
yep exactly
If god can do all this miraculous stuff.... why bother?
What was the point of it, killing every living thing in a flood, to reset his vanity project.
Why not selectively remove the evil.
Why not just snap the finger and poof 6 days later new planet.
Computer 101 god... turn it of at the wall.
Facts
A telltale sign of something being a cult is all the members constantly reminding eachother that _it really is true and we should all believe it!_
And scientific materialism is one such cult, whose adherents claim that the scientific method can be applied to all questions of origins and material reality even though no scientific experiment can demonstrate the veracity of that claim.
@@sliglusamelius8578 No scientist claims that science is the answer to all the questions in life. They do, however, correctly claim that science is *the* method by which we can discover facts about the natural world.
Those factual discoveries, in turn, disprove for example the story of god creating the universe in 6 days.
@sliglusamelius8578 - "origins"? Scientists has discovered more that creationist has done. "material reality"? How do you explain anti matter?
@@globalcoupledances
Science has explained nothing about the origin of anything.
Antimatter? lol, quantum physics is mysterious, it has explained nothing too.
@fredthe47th - Artificial lie have been created. Your teachers want to keep that as a secret
@sliglusamelius8578 - quantum physics is the explanation. Has creationism contributed to quantum physics?
"I'm pretty sure that Noah didn't need shuffle board and swimming pools and gold courses and whatever else they have on cruise ships today"
Yeah! He only needed two of EVERY SPECIES OF ANIMAL ON EARTH.
AIG is top notch when it comes to utter avoidance of Genesis 6 Giants/ Nephilim Sons of God controversy.
Great video. However, if you are going to fight to be so accurate about the ark in Genesis, PLEASE start being accurate about the Sabbath being the SEVENTH day of creation and the ONLY day God said to worship Him on, NOT Sunday which is a pagan day of sun worship which God called an Abomination. If you are such sticklers about accuracy, you are falling on your faces with Sunday worshipping against the Will of God in Genesis. Thank you. Please make that correction. 😮
In the new testament they worship the Lord almost everyday . . . . And according to Paul days are not the basis of holiness the same with the law about food
This is like saying what species of tree did the sticks come from that the second pig used to construct his house.

To believe what u said contradicted many scriptures and u said it so but that doesn't make it untrue. First it says should in John 3:16 should doesn't mean u have anything so it means u have it but according to something more. Just to believe and have faith is required in believing the truth also. To believe what your saying will contradict u must be born of the water and the spirit. Here's where the major error is in 97% of those that preach from the bible and they all have the same thing missing from them. It's the reason u don't know the interpretation of John 3:8 or what everyone born of the spirit has in common with what it says in the scripture. It's not in the message u believe that's y u don't know it. The answer to the interpretation is in chapters 2, 10 and 19 of the book of Acts. He has brought to everyone an easy way to find the truth by showing the error and where to find the answer. It's your free will now to get the interpretation and it will show it is missing except from the copy cat and the trinity that's the other 2% of the false messages that are preached from the bible. U only have to believe one lie like Eve and Adam believed her. If someone told me I made a mistake I would check but the devil doesn't want u to so who are u going to listening to when u read the scripture and have no idea what the scripture means. U can't get the interpretation from anyone that believes what u do. If that's not enough for u to get the answer from God I don't know what will. Jesus told the rich man even if u come back from the dead your brother's won't and they have Moses and the prophets
And God knew in the beginning that Eve and then Adam was going to eat
Of that tree of knowledge. God knows everything that Was and is Going to be.
How about you just drop the whole thing? The ark story ark is just too silly to for any thinking person.
When you translate arc it means a really big box and when they found it it was a really big box. It had places where animals stayed during the flood. Yes at that time they found there way inside before it broke apart and half slid down the mountan.mountain.. 😮
"and when they found it"
?? when they found a box they found a box? Or did you believe the lies that somebody (yet again) claimed to have found the biblical arc?
Who's the they?
and when was that time?
And how do you lnow what Noahs Ark looked like were you ther
This is a great presentation Please remember to share 1 Cor 15:1-4 the gospel
6:26 ha yeah those metal boats or cruises were pleasure boats. And I absolutely agree, to me if your gonna explain to your kid about the ark then be honest. If your being dishonest or changing the dimensions of the ark, your lying or being dishonest. We are not supposed to sin as much as possible, to walk away from sin, so why would you want to sin or even if not sinning, why would you want to misconstrue the bible, any of it.
7:25 yeah so Koreans tested the dimensions of the ark and anyone can look at those findings but of course people here in the comments conveniently choose to ignore that proof just like so many other proofs they choose to ignore. Thank you for your time and stay safe
@@tyrellbosley2607, Yeah, I did look it up. A 10’ model in a tank, not the ocean like Georgia said. Hardly representative of a 500’ barge. They assumed it would be made from 800 10,000 lb. trees. Noah and his boys must have been incredibly strong, and that doesn’t include thousands more for the interior work and cages.
I assure you we don’t become atheists because of cartoon Noah’s arks being too small
Genesis 7
Authorized (King James) Version
7 And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. 3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth. 4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. 5 And Noah did according unto all that the Lord commanded him. 6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
One wonders how all the animals of the world could fit on one boat. Actually, it is not possible.
@@markduell2468 so you do not believe 🤔
@@mikegyver3193 It is a story taken from the Epic of Gilgamesh written 500 years before.
How did saltwater fish survive in the lowered salinity, and how did freshwater fish survive in the increased salinity? Why is there fresh water when it was all salty at some point?
@@leroyjenkins3744 It started to rain after the floor. It Rained now, water on the ground to water the earth.
For fun, i did the math, and it would need about 4.5 times more water than exists in this solar system to cover mount Everest. Not that anything could possibly survive such an event. Not even fish (because of climate change and a mix of salt and fresh water and so on)
All religion that trace their origins to Noah need to face a very harsh reality. If you are of Western Roman-Greco thought and philosophy, there isn't even the slightest, remote, chance that you know what the Torah/Bible originally said. Now I know that you're going to argue that there are master theologians that have spent their entire lives researching and studying the scrolls and are the absolute authority on the matter BUT this cannot possibly be true and I'll tell you why.
During the Babylonian captivity, almost all of Israel was assimilated into the Babylonian society and their culture, traditions and thought were also assimilated. Their entire culture was lost and the only hope they had of recovering and rebuilding their culture was to rely on the texts retained by the Greek. However, the Greek, being of Western thought and philosophy has already sealed the fate of the interpretations, translations and the context of the scroll that they held. Never the less, the granted copies of these texts to the Israelites to assist in the reestablishment of the Hebrew culture. So, the Hebrews read them and incorporated the contents of the Greek copies and accepted them as being 100% accurate... and they were accurate. With one very significant difference. The Hebrews learned and received and accepted the translations, interpretations and the context of Western Philosophy when they should have been reading their scrolls from a Near Eastern perspective, thought and philosophy. For example: "In the Beginning". This usage of the word "beginning" implies "time", where we just presume that there is a beginning and a linear, straight line, progression to an end. This is true in Western thought but, in Ancient Near Eastern thought, "time" was perceived as an endless circle of "beginnings" and "ending", base of significant catastrophic events of destruction and restoration, exactly as is repeated in the Hindu Vedas and the Sumerian Enuma Elish.
Thus, a "day" was not a literal twenty four hour time period. This is why the Bible leads with the "evening" and then the "morning" were the first "day". The evening being the descent into destruction and chaos, while the morning was the rise back out of that chaos and into a time of restoration, prosperity and peace. Thus, the Morning was the reentry into "order", which also mean that Elohim never, ever, said "Let there be light". He said "Let there be ORDER". Now, this is merely the first part of chapter one and I could spend an entire day just breaking down the evolution of the Hebrew alphabet and culture to prove the point but the present Biblical narrative has been so thoroughly embedded into the human experience that tens of millions would fight to the death to defend the illusion that has been hammered into their minds for the past 2,500 years.
Seriously, we all have to admit that the majority of the stories coming from the Bible are very suspect and provides no explanation for any of it except that it "must be God's will" or "God has a plan" or "We cannot comprehend the wisdom of God" and the people just agree to not know because they were told that its wrong to question their god. Well, when you learn the ancient Hebrew alphabet, the language, the culture, the traditions and their simple nomadic philosophy, there are no more questions. However, at the same time, it must be understood that the ancient Near Eastern philosophy also has another very significant difference from that of Western Philosophy. In Eastern thought, they would have never, ever, in a million years, used an abstract concept in their thought, speech or writing and THAT changes everything. Abstract is a western form of thought that was asserted in the translations so that the Greek could wrap their heads around what the Hebrews were attempting to convey. Thus, the following are abstracts to consider; God, spirit, angel, demon, glory and eternity. None of these words ever existed in the Hebrew language.
Please, take the time to invest in your immortality and open your eyes. Although the Torah/Bible are a total abomination of translation, interpretation and context to have ever curse the earth, there is good news. Yes, there is an almighty creator of the all and, yes, there is a path to eternal life but you're not going to find it in the Torah/Old testament. In fact !! There is no such being as Satan and there never was. Your Messiah was also mistranslated and misinterpreted and His message was twisted and distorted to blind the people and conceal who they really are. Go through the New Testament over and over until it sinks in. He taught.... and taught..... and was often confused, perplexed and amazed that not one person knew or understood the "faith" that he spoke of. He demonstrated, time and time again, like a teacher and then He said "These things that I do, SHALL you do" and then drove the point home with "KNOW YE NOT THAT YE ARE GODS?" He never, ever, implied that you were supposed to pray to him and ask for this and that. He said "Do these things in MY NAME". Not in asking but by being like him, speaking like him, believing like him... to do these things in his character, as though you were the Messiah. YE ARE GODS !!! Act like it.
