Atheists React To Creationist Saying Dinosaurs Were On Noah's Ark

One of the founding border members of the Creationist organization Answers in Genesis believes that dinosaurs accompanied Noah on his Ark as the entire world was flooded by God. Speaking to Bryan Fischer of the American Family Association on Thursday, Carl Kerby insisted it wasn't infeasible for the giant reptilian creatures to have been on Noah's Ark... What do atheists think? John Iadarola (TYT University, and Common Room), Dave Rubin (TYT 140, and The Rubin Report), Cenk Uygur, and Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show) break it down on The Young Turks.

So 125,000 animals were on Noah's Ark? Aren't there like BILLIONS of species on Earth?

[@sixstanger00]

PurpleStratocaster But Evolution IS fact. Whether or not they concede it is irrelevant. To think that working out there was 125,000 animals on the Ark somehow validates the story is patently absurd, and grossly ignores what we KNOW to be true about our planet. It's been *_billions_* of years since the total species count on Earth was only 125,000. And even then, not one of them would have been land animals. It boggles my mind that creationists actually think they can justify this creationists story when it's in direct conflict with what we know about our universe. It's literally like _knowing_ the Earth revolves around the Sun but still believing the reverse is true.

[@sixstanger00]

PurpleStratocaster Mind boggling, isn't it?

[@arthurdent549]

***** Considering dinosaurs were first discovered (by humans) less than 2 hundred years ago, I'd call that rather, inconvenient. Jeez, these same types just 30-40 years ago denied the very existence of dinosaurs with a condescending smirk and a "how do you know, you weren't there" rebuttal...a rebuttal I've learned to embrace and enjoy... let's see here then, with that argument.... Never forget Nicolas Copernicus and Galileo Galilei, I say. They are the Poster Icons for the religious war upon science...and the True Beauty of it is, and will always be, They (Nick & Galileo) were Right. When it comes to true progress of human understanding of, in the words of Douglas Adams, "Life, The Universe And Everything" science always leads the way...leaving religion to suck the hind tit...then they whine about it by way of attack. Not too friendly, those holy folks. In short, as I mentioned earlier they simply cave...guess their kid's questions got the best of them...those parents, that is.

The footage streamed on live tv wasn't even the real footage of the moon landing. They didn't even tape it. I'm not saying they didn't go to the moon I'm saying they did go but didn't film because they already knew about the hundreds of cases of encounters with ufos and extraterrestrial vehicles. There was no doubt that there was a risk of one being seen by the whole world and that's the last thing they would have wanted to happen. I'm not staying this from a stupid belief like religious people. I'm speaking from experience. I've had sightings myself. Search CE5 innitiative on KZbin by Dr Steven greer.

Gospels weren't written by Greeks, except for the gospel of Luke. The same author wrote the Acts. I'm not certain about the other books tho.

Here's a thing a lot of people don't seem to consider. You'd need to take marine creatures on the ark as well, because if the Earth is flooded then the water would not be able to support all living marine creatures. Some can only live in fresh water, others could only live in salt water. If the world is flooded with fresh water then all the salt water species would die and you'd need to take them on the ark. If the world flooded with salt water then all the fresh water species would have to be preserved.

The bible specifically says "Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, and also seven pairs of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth" which implies taking animals of sexual maturity.

Nope, they will still be able to reproduce after they leave the ark. They don't have to be sexually mature while on the ark. It would make more sense for them to reproduce later on.

​@@sourlemon3337 They could easily carry eggs on the ark versus having a giant dinosaur. There are only 700 species of dinosaurs, many speculate that it's actually far less.

Many paleontologist wanted to get their name put on dinosaur bone discoveries so they insisted on them being new species.

[@sourlemon3337]

@@rs72098 yes currently there is only 700 named non-avian dinosaurs. But fossilisation is rare and many were probably lost. Dinosaurs have existed since the Triassic, more than 200 million years ago.

And, is it remotely possible, knowing what rain is, that much water would rain from the skies in 40 days?

[@riparianlife97701]

RVapes I want to know how Noah got the freshwater fish back in the lakes and the saltwater fish back in the oceans.

[@rvapes5912]

Docktor Jim That's easy. All the water was fresh back then. Scientists have shown that the oceans are getting more salty. If you extrapolate backwards and play with the numbers, you find that, in the beginning, all water was fresh. It was only when the mountains rose up after the flood and the water level dropped that seas were formed and started becoming saline. Lakes and rivers didn't become saline because they were not as deep enough to reach the salt layers deep in the earth. The mountains and seas must have formed very fast. Otherwise the rising salinity level would have been so abrupt that the fish wouldn't have had time to adapt. I figure that all the oceans were formed and the mountains rose from a level field to where they are now in about a 200-500 year time frame after the flood. Over the next 3500 years or so, the once freshwater fish in the ocean turned into saltwater fish. Mount Ararat was really just a mound, a couple dozen feet high, at the time of disembarkation and the fossil seashells found on Mt. Everest are from freshwater creatures who died before there was any such thing as saltwater. Hope that clears things up for ya!

"There was space for 30k animals minimum." Yeah, I'm sure you can fit the 8.7 million species there (that we know of)... IN PAIRS. Too bad Noah had to leave his first grade math books out... You know, to make some space.

[@andresreal8261]

***** Sorry, there's no such a term as "kind" in the scientific language. That's a classic Christian wordplay to try to disprove evolution by using "micro" and "macro" examples (something Christians invented as well. There's no micro or macroevolution. Evolution is evolution, period. Small or large changes depend on time, that's it.) The accurate, scientifically accepted term is "species", and it stands at 8.7 million (discovered until now), and genetic studies have shown that it has been around said numbers (even more in the past due to human's recent alteration of the ecosystem) for tens of thousands of years, if not hundreds and more... So no, sorry. Science doesn't accepts "kind" as a valid term. There's not a "kind" of dog. There's many "breeds" of dogs, but species are defined by the ability to interbreed between individuals. Therefore, you need space for 17.4 million individuals, which is absolutely nonsense. Faith and belief is irrelevant. Only facts matter when discussing about factual, objective information.

[@andresreal8261]

***** 1) Please provide your sources regarding these "stories" about a man, the flood and all that from Chinese, Japanese and the other civilizations you mention. I want to check the veracity of this "coincidence" you mention (and the reliability of the sources), as well as how similar they are if they happen to actually exist. You'll understand I cannot take your word as fact, you need to back it up, again, with evidence. 2) Show me your sources about these "cave drawings" you mention as well. Besides, even if I were to concede you all of the points you mention (which I really don't because you haven't presented anything yet), are you saying that a stick figure on a cave that seems to have four legs and a long neck is your proof against centuries of scientific research with ridiculous funding, cutting edge technological means and the top minds in humanity...? (plus, we have actual fossil findings that can be temporally determined to date for millions of years before humanity). Yeah... You'll have to excuse me if I ask for more "solid" evidence than that...

[@andresreal8261]

***** Yeah... Heh, I'll admit, as soon as I saw the link you just provided, I chuckled a bit, because I assumed from the get go that you were a Creationist thanks to your claims, and now you provide me Creationist site with a compilation of, and I quote from the source you provided yourself, "flood legends in the folklore of people groups from around the world." Furthermore, it also says "And the stories are all so similar. Local geography and cultural aspects may be present but they all seem to be telling the same story." Let's repeat that... "Local geography and cultural aspects may be present, but..." So, in short: "Let's dissregard all the details that clearly show that it would be impossible that we're talking about the same event because both geography and cultural differences are present, and thus, make it impossible that we're refferring to the same thing, unless there's a Japanese Noah, a Chinese Noah, a Muslim Noah, etc... And instead lets focus on the details that are, as we just said, LEGENDS... Ergo, stories of the past with no hard evidence to contrast it to..." You see? This is why Creationism isn't acknowledged as real science. This is why creationism as a whole is dissregarded as mere pseudo-sciency-like statements that try to paint religious beliefs on a labcoat... You cannot expect someone to believe that a worldwide event occured when you cannot present more than hearsay and word of mouth... Here, I'll show you now (even if I don't have to, because I'm not making a positive claim here, therefore I have no burden of proof) a huge list that clearly details every problem there is with the Flood myth, and why it directly contradicts reason and science, which are the tools we all employ (yes, even you) for all the aspects of our life: www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-noahs-ark.html Hope the read enlightens you a bit. Glad we had this discussion.

[@andresreal8261]

***** Well... Yeah, this is why I usually don't engage in debates with creationists... Not to offend, of course, but a discussion is based on logic. It basically represents two sides contrasting logical arguments... But when "faith" comes into the picture, there is no discussion to be had, because faith is believing in that which has no evidence (that's why you have to "take religion on faith"... because you cannot take it on evidence or proof). So yeah... My logical observations stand, but they cannot be challenged by faith, because they're not even the same thing. Faith requires blind belief, while science doesn't... That's pretty much it.

[@andresreal8261]

***** Actually, that's false... It's widely known that, in the history of the whole earth, around more than 90% of all species that ever existed had died off. That's what natural selection is all about. So if anything, "Noah" would have had even MORE animals to juggle with, not less.

This scenario seems more plausible than the actual bible description

[@maizeblu2099]

There is one major flaw with the Noah's Ark story. In the bible it says that the animals were brought onto the ark in pairs, one male and one female from each species. In order for an animal species to be successful and thrive, they need a certain number in their population in order to have enough genes to reproduce and grow the population. For humans, I know that that number is somewhere between 98 and 120. Keep in mind, that NONE of those people would be related in any way to each other. So the animals from Noah's Ark could never have survived for very long after finding land. Not to mention that the dinosaurs were not on the original Noah's Ark because at the time the book was written, we hadn't discovered them yet (or maybe we had and just had no idea what they were.) Oh and one more thing, the dinosaurs lived in a completely different time period.

Ararat to volcanic islands in the eastern Pacific Ocean after the flood.

We're still discovering bugs and frogs in the rain forest, teams of researchers with modern equipment. What about the humans living in the rain forest, did they get a ride on the arc too? Antarctic penguins can overheat IN ANTARCTICA when temperatures rise above FREEZING. Enough of this already.

[@matthewtaylorbrown]

The train car comparison for capacity was terrible. If you take the volume of the vessel described in the Bible, it does not take into consideration the volume of the wood floorings, the walls, the doorframes, and the support structure strong enough to support the animals, the staff, food, fresh water, and the structures themselves. Plus, you have to measure the initial volume from the inside of the wood vessel as the wood hull would have been significant. Because of the weight of the vessel and the contents, especially the water supply, the vessel would have been significantly low in the ocean. That means all the animal waste, urine and scat would have trips up flights of stairs. There wouldn't have be enough people to remove the waste of all those animals, let alone feed and care of the animals. It would have been dark in the animal chambers for several reasons. Did they bring on two of each fish? Were their fish tanks? Because if you flood the planet with freshwater rain, it would have desalinized the ocean and most of the salt-water fish would have died. Same with all the freshwater fish, a flood would have turned their water into salt-water and displaced them. When the water received chances are the freshwater fish that survived the salt would end up on land or the ocean and not in freshwater, if it pooled it would still be salty. It is all very ludicrous. How did they get the unique animals of Australia, the Americas, or any of the island animals? Trying to accommodate a negative hurt my brain.

Sean Edwards Creationism is a myth, that in this day and age is laughable. If you truly believe that dinosaurs and humans walked together and the universe is 6,000 years old, I believe it is you who doesn't understand reality. The Creationist worldview has zero merit.

[@seanedwards6283]

"Zero merit"..... this describes every universe we have today originating from nothing... just like the average science book will teach today. No, it was created by a complex being who wants to have a personal relationship with His creation, regardless of how hard headed or stubborn they may be.

[@paulcooper1223]

Sean Edwards Any evidence for that claim? Anything that is in a science book is backed by evidence.

450 feet long and 75 feet wide? The titanic was 882 feet long, 92.6 feet at It's widest point and 104 feet high and this guy is trying to tell me that all of these animals fit on a 450 foot boat?

[@Bankside1997]

Ted Cruz approves of how dinosaurs got into the ark.

[@dowddash]

30,000 animals? The fucking titanic only had a passenger capacity of 3,547 plus crew when fully loaded to feed them for 7 days and it was 200-300 feet longer than the Ark. The Ark was supposed to be afloat for a 150 days?

[@onlyhalfbad333]

***** not to mention the amount of time it would take. Oh yeah, god has that covered. Noah lived to be 900. Amazing..... -_-

[@edwincasimir28]

Forget the Titanic man, it was made of steel and the riveting was, despite being very sturdy, questionable and failed. And even then, at least a third of the Titanic's space is taken up by the engine compartment. But then you gotta ask yourself, how'd the flood affect fish and sea mammals and dinosaurs. Did they put those in a submerged, water-tank filled deck on the ark because they would die in the oceans because of the "mixing of fresh and saltwater" like AIG likes to propose. *light bulb flashes in Ken Ham's head* "We'h gown to moyke uh paht of deh Aaahk with unduhwotah cumpaaahtmints. Milyuns uv dohluhs in theeh."

[@chriswatson7965]

The titanic didn't have them crammed in like sardines. The rail records that I could google show a that 40 ft stock was legally allowed to hold 250 sheep. Which actually does mean that a ship of the dimensions given should be able to accommodate 30,000 sheep in the same manner. The 500 stock cars (and 125,000 sheep) mentioned is an exaggeration as this would assume a rectangular shape and no ballast. Food and water is another issue that the fundamentalists have an explanation for, but they are right with regards pure physical loading of 30,000 sheep.

[@edwincasimir28]

Dave Smith I'd still have qualms about the distribution of weight of 30,000 animals ranging in mass between 0.2 grams and 2 tons being racked, stacked and packed on a wooden boat made from native middle-eastern wood, held together by bronze nails and sealed with unrefined bitumen. And the fact that even empty that piece of shit would never actually float.

[@Arakash2]

Another very common complaint raised is the sheer amount of food as well as waste these animals would produce. The sheer amount of crap alone from that quantity of animals is apparently pretty crazy. Then of course there is the fact that predators and animals with specific dietary needs would be placed right next to each other.

[@caleb9364]

Actually they don’t believe in the earth being “65 million years old”, therefore dinosaurs couldn’t have gone extinct then. And I don’t think they would have to put flying animals or insects on the boat since they can fly, right?

[@rzu1474]

Itz Icey most animals tend not to fly non stop for a year. With nether food or whater. Since every plant is coverd and because of the mixing of salt and fresh water all fish are dead. Such water is not drinkable

You also better turn off your brain before you consider the implication of repopulating the world with only 8 people, 5 of whom are related closely by blood. Though that level of incest would surely explain a lot.

[@karlrschneider]

There are many forms of child abuse. One of the very worst is forcing or coercing a child into embracing a particular religion before he or she is mature enough to have the intellect to consider such matters in a critically thinking way. All humans are born atheist, that is absolutely obvious...they acquire a 'religion' from parental, authority figure or even peer force. Virtually all ADULT atheists are former believers who have discovered how to apply common sense, logic and critical thought to the inanity of beliefs in imaginary gods. Deuteronomy 21:18-21King James Version (KJV) 18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: 19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; 20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. 21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the kind of shit that religions promote.

[@trajan74]

Noah was Dr. Who. Think about. A 900 yr old dude with a boat that's bigger on the inside. Big enough to hold 2 of every animal. There didn't need to be room for food because he just traveled in time to the end of the Flood.

[@SinHurr]

Wouldn't the Doctor have just stopped the flood? Seems more in line with his usual methods.

[@yeastori]

You realize Doctor Who is the most ANTI God show there is on TV right? Its message is clear, there is NO GOD but science is true and thats why the cosmos exist and you can travel through time and only MAN can stop evil not a deity.

+Arthur Dent Science is not preached, you live with it, like the computer you are using right now. That's the difference between something that needs to be preached on temples(Scams) and something you have to live with even if you dont understand it. The first is a Lie, the Second is True.

[@arthurdent549]

+DieHard300 ...Just caught your comment. You're correct though. Reality does not need to be preached...Fantasy however, does...

[@Asterion608]

+Red Floyd Science only needs time to investigate and develop until the Evidence is undeniable. You dont believe an airplane that weights 640 tons can fly?, bad for you, the Antonov An-225 flies whatever you believe.Oh! You dont believe in the laws of physics?, then try to jump off a cliff, if a heavy ass airplane can fly why wouln't you?. Of course nobody will do such thing because everyone knows that there's a lot of science involved on the fly of the Antonov, no need to preach about that, a 640 tons airplane can fly but a 75 kilograms human can not, and that wont change whatever you believe. That's how you know something is true, no need to preach about it.
