Is it true that noah get male and female in every animals? The latest stemate was there are 7.77 million kind of animals in the world, then noah get two of each which is male and female, soo more or less 15milion animals was in that ark,, how big is that ark? Two gerraf need big space, as will as hipopotamus, elephant, rino, beast, cow, carabaos, horses, zebras, goats, bucks, bears, wolfs, big cats, and etcs., it needs space. Then how big is the atock room og foods,, noah needs to bring extra animals for the carnivores ones, and grass for herbivores. Then after the flood, why does kangaroo find only in Australia, komodo dragon only in Indonesia, why philippines dont have lions, hepo, rinos, elephants, giraffe? Were does that ark land after the flood? How does tarsier manage to come here in the philippines? JUSt wondering, I hope you can help me find the answers of those questions..

This is really interesting, I hope people realize it. The unknown period for the ancients is something I feel is seldom spoken of. Looking at Greek history, they knew the time of the Bronze Age collapse and a bit before, but otherwise it was all unclear. What the Bronze Age people thought of as their past is just amazing, because it's their tradition of spoken history just coming to be written down after years of developing writing, all of the time period that their ancestors spoke of. Early civilization is just amazing, and the transition from the Neolithic to Bronze Age needs to be covered more. I'm glad this channel goes over such things, incredible work!!

Peli_can Dude I reject the bible because of ‘stories’ like the flood and many others. The flood story shows a complete misunderstanding of physics, biology, and science. There is no reason to believe any of it happened because it couldn’t have. Reasons? - you can’t drive when its raining 1” every 15 minutes or 4” per hour. - to flood Mt. Ararat, it would have to rain continuously 4.5” per hour for 40 days - to flood Mt. Everest (i.e the entire surface), it would have had to rain more than 7” per hour every day for 40 days - there is no valid explanation for where all the water went over the next 325 days These kinds of rain events would have sunk the vessel. And these ancient people had no understanding of where the water would go so didn’t make up a story for it. After 40 days of rain, the ark floated around for another 10 1/2 months before running aground on Mt. Ararat. That’s a full year. - with limited space on the ark, how did they store a year’s worth of food for 8 people and thousands of animals? - without refrigeration, food for both people and animals would have rotted. They would have suffered from scurvy similar to the Spanish fleets that died from it after only a few months at sea. - where did they keep all of the meat for the carnivores? That would have rotted, too. - with only one 3’x3’ window, how did they acquire enough oxygen through that tiny hole for the entire ship’s population? With the amount of excrement being produced, the methane gas would have suffocated them. And the stink... - with only one 3’x3’ window, how did they remove the excrement? A full time job for 8 people. - the lack of light would have produced all sorts of health problems. To keep lamps/torches going for light throughout the ship, they would have needed fuel...for a year. No plants could have survived in the dark on the ark. - ‘pairs of animals, one male, one female’. Do you think this might have caused some offspring? Even more animals to feed. And places to put them? Rabbits, mice, and rats alone would have overrun the ship after a year. - 4 couples, 3 of child bearing age, wouldn’t have had any children in a one year period? An finally, 8 people of Middle East decent repopulate the the entire planet and produce all of the visible races? From African blacks to Swedish caucasians? Interesting when archeological investigations have civilizations starting in Africa, not the Middle East. The ark story was just another poorly thought out claim by these ancient people. Not every civilization has a flood story. If there was a flood, every civilization would have the story. These guys can go through the bible and other ancient texts and find whatever they want. But, without some facts to back it up, their claims are just as unfounded as the creation myth.
@peli_candude5544 жыл бұрын
@@Wrkumlin Wow, you've really thought this through from your limited knowledge and information available from a story written anywhere from 2,100 to 3,500 years ago but was actually supposed to have happened much farther back in time since it was passed on for many generations before that. To be honest, I don't know what happened but the main idea was this: After God created humans he kicked them out of the Garden of Eden (essentially being kept by God who provided everything for them that they would need) for disobeying a rule and told them to work the earth and sweat for their supper. From that point they just got worse and kept finding new ways to offend God and sin against their fellow humans so God decided that he needed to start fresh. Some see that as genocidal or some other act of immorality that made them despise God even more than allowing stories to be told in his Holy Book that don't make sense to those who want to find the exact details of how that flood worked. But the words of the Bible don't just talk about rain, they also include water from below the earth that was brought up to help flood the world faster. I've heard a few recent stories that say we do have a huge water source stored under the ground and that it is almost as much as the water in the oceans. I haven't researched that either because it is not quite as relevant as the idea that humans sin and we find new ways to insult and disrespect what many believe is the creator of the universe. And again, to be honest, that is what I try to focus on and try to improve internally without judging what others do or believe. If you'd like to elaborate on what you do believe and why that makes more sense to you then it might be more entertaining than calculating all the old stories that only set the stage for the modern world where we see all the problems of sin and evil coming up everywhere and people doing things to insult God and ingore his wisdom is even more obvious with every school shooting, rape, abortion, sex change operation, and any other silliness we witness daily. I'm always open to hearing new versions of reality but lately I haven't heard anything that makes me believe any less in God. They all just confirm that there is something much more intelligent and powerful behind our world and think it's a better idea to seek the face of that being instead of trying to find ways to justify materialistic and sensual pleasures.
@Wrkumlin4 жыл бұрын
@@peli_candude554 So, what I get from your response is that god made some people that were emotionally unable to follow his 'rules', rules they were't told. He didn't tell them what sin was. They had no more reason to understand what it meant than if he didn't exist at all. Then he punished them for doing something wrong when they couldn't have know it was wrong without eating from the fruit of the tree in the first place. Saying "Don't eat from the tree" to Adam and Eve was like saying "Don't eat that cookie" to a 3 year old. The temptation is too great. And if that's how your god teaches people, by testing them, then he's immoral. He's a Barbaric bully of a god, with the same personality as those men that made him up thousands of years ago - believe what I do or you'll suffer. Is that how you raised your children (assuming you have raised children)? Did you tempt them and then punish them if they didn't do just like you wanted without telling them what you wanted in the first place? I'm sorry, but your god in no way represents the good of good and evil when he drowns everyone for the doings of a few. And why did he have to drown them? Why did he have to drown all the animals and plants? Was he so incompetent that he couldn't come up with a better way to get rid of the bad eggs in the bunch? And, did it do any good? Nope. He had to direct his warring barbarians to kill entire cities, running swords through the bellies of the pregnant women. But he's all knowing, all seeing, right? Your 'loving' god should have known that drowning 2.5 million of his creations, plus all the animals, would have done nothing and we saw that in history 3,000 years ago. We see it today. So, like I said, he's a bully. He demands worship for what? Fear of eternal persecution if you don't? I know you have to defend all of the crap in the bible to maintain your belief in your god. But I don't. I can look at the bible and see the good and realize that it's good because it's good, not because some god said so. If I need a god to tell me what's good, then I also need him to tell me what's bad. And now I can't think for myself. I can't have free will because any decisions I make could disrupt your god's 'plan'. If I do have free will, your god can't have a plan because there are potentially 7 billion disrupters out there every day - atheists, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, even Christians, or any of the less mainstream civilizations out there that have their own beliefs like the indigenous peoples of North and South America. Your god isn't very good at marketing. And your biblical stories don't make him any better. I'm not trying to get you to disbelieve. This started out as a statement of why atheists reject the bible. The question should be more like why I can't accept it. And that is what I'm trying to show you. We've only discussed 1 or 2 stories here. There are many more that just make the bible unbelievable.

From what I read the flood was global. I'm not a professor of science or history or anything like that but I can read books. Theology books are my favorite. This is not some story passed around to get on the best seller list. It is a message to last the ages. God was not happy with his creation but he was not giving up on them. So he saved 8 people out of the lot. He threw in some of the animals also. If anyone says God can not flood the whole earth they are limiting his power! I ask how scientific is miracles? Did Moses part the red sea? Did Joshua distroy the walls of Jerico with trumpets? Did Elisha raise a boy from the dead? Did God save three boys in the furnace? Or, a boy named Daniel from the lions den? Did God cause a virgin to give birth? Did Jesus turn water to wine? Did Jesus heal a mutitude of illnesses? Did Jesus walk on water? Did Jesus resurrect from the grave? Did a mere 12 apostles conquer the world for Christ? This is a small sampling of the miracles performed. The best miracle that we all hope is to come. The resurrection of our bodies on the coming of our LORD. Science is the study of what we can see. Christians are spiritual beings not carnal. Believe in the word of God! Miracles is God poking his finger into this material world. We can see its effect but can not explain it. Call it the theta variable if you like.

Unless they were traders between various far off countries the ancients whole world would have been limited to at the most a few hundred miles in any given direction, rather than the thousands we know to be the case today. Worse than that, tor the greater part of any given ancient population that number would likely have been only tens of miles in any given direction. Even today many people do not stray more than a few miles from the place that they grew up in over their entire lifespan.

@@benisrael2266 Well for example that the concept of Archangels, the Apocalypse and Final Judgment were "taken" from Zoroastrianism, since the Zoroastrian king Cyrus freed the Jewish people from Babylon's rule and brought them home, even helped to erect the temple, and is called in the bible the "annointed one". The claim is that Zoroastrian ideas such as Apocalypse, Angels and the Satan did not exist in the Jewish Religion prior to that event, and was implemented in Judaism due to syncretism. Zoroastrianism is a highly dualistic Religion, with basically two Gods representing good and evil, and there are immortal beings that assist the "Good" deity, and it does often speak of a day in which all people will be judged.

Everyone started after the flood, if everyone had grandparents who told them about the flood, it is clear that so many nations have this story as a "myth" even though it was a reality. And as you wrote, generation after generation only remembered certain details of the whole story, until someone decides to write it but maybe already too distorted. For me, this is another reason to believe that the Bible is true. It's the most complex, the most proven. But also the most mysterious, because God wants man to understand, to learn to love, to respect, to believe, and only the one who seeks God with all his heart finds him. As if God showed everything clearly and descended to earth in all his power, no one will dare not believe, but in this way no one will show what kind of man he is, bad or good. Here on earth we show if: We live to be a blessing to those around us on this earth or we live for ourself and everyone has to please us. The Bible shows us what and where a life lived in selfishness leads us, even our consciousness that man shows us through many films we make where Selfishness leads Evil and the desire for power to oppress others.

You are also assuming to know what Old Testament writers knew, when you have no idea what they knew. But most egregious of your assumptions is the misunderstanding that Old Testament writers wrote based upon what they "knew." This denies the entire point of the Bible - the fact that it was INSPIRED. God TOLD them what to write. Obviously, the writers in some cases were very familiar with their content but in other cases very unfamiliar with it. How do you think prophecy works? You think they "knew" that? And how did Moses write the first few chapters of Genesis? Did he actually know what happened in Eden? God inspired the writing of Scripture. Next, you refer to scientists (who are biased against a worldwide flood) claiming it couldn't happen. That is not evidence of anything. So, your assumptions are all incorrect.

The water prevailed and increased greatly upon the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water.

Interestingly, the family of Abram came from the area just below the mountains of Urartu. Padan Aram. This is the ancestral land from which fitting brides were sought for the patriarchs who wished to marry among their own people rather than the local Canaanites. It is interesting to note that the father of Semitic Monotheist peoples came from the region where the godly Noah and his sons exited the ark and first began repopulating the region after the flood. It seems like there would be better, more accurate cultural memory of such events there than in the reconstituted cities of Sumer and Akkad and else where.

Many Christians today think the Flood of Noah’s time was only a local flood, confined to somewhere around Mesopotamia. This idea does not come from Scripture. Look at the problems this concept involves: If the Flood was local, why did Noah have to build an Ark? He could have walked to the other side of the mountains and missed it. If the Flood was local, why did God send the animals to the Ark so they would escape death? There would have been other animals to reproduce that kind if these particular ones had died. If the Flood was local, why was the Ark big enough to hold all kinds of land vertebrate animals that have ever existed? If only Mesopotamian animals were aboard, the Ark could have been much smaller. If the Flood was local, why would birds have been sent on board? These could simply have winged across to a nearby mountain range. If the Flood was local, how could the waters rise to 15 cubits (8 meters) above the mountains (Genesis 7:20)? Water seeks its own level. It couldn’t rise to cover the local mountains while leaving the rest of the world untouched. If the Flood was local, people who did not happen to be living in the vicinity would not be affected by it. They would have escaped God’s judgment on sin. If this happened, what did Christ mean when He likened the coming judgment of all men to the judgment of ‘all’ men (Matthew 24:37-39) in the days of Noah? A partial judgment in Noah’s day means a partial judgment to come. If the Flood was local, God would have repeatedly broken His promise never to send such a flood again. creation.com/noahs-flood-covered-the-whole-earth

The human bottleneck and violence rise seemed obvious to me. Man stayed violent towards each other well into the bronze age, Social insulation was the norm and entire villages spawned from one man and his many wives produced entire clans that all hailed back to their previous ancestor. These men would compete with each other (I use compete very loosely here, some were better at dating with the given rules than others) and their haplogroup spread. To scoff at this idea or to consider it incredulous seems almost like willing ignorance. Todays civilizations hail from one man. Hell Europe of all places Is basically spread into two halves both originating from one man, one clan. Hell Humanity has a shocking lack of abundance of haplogroups, in fact it seems entire civilizations hail from a prior father of some sort. I find human migrations fascinating. Great video IP.

Yes, we should try to improve, but becoming perfect in some absolute sense on earth is not the "goal" as this is impossible. The idea of a flood local in scope but "universal" in judgment is a lot more plausible than a global flood.

@J Mireles if you're writing about the flood you should look at the cuneiform clay tablets archaeologists found, telling the story of a flood and a God called Enlil who created a storm to flood everything as well as providing information about what materials were needed to build it . Mesopotamia. British museum has 1000s of those early clay tablets. They predate the Jewish & Christian Noah story by 1000 years It's an ancient story, I believe there has to be some truth about a flood otherwise it would have died out . But it was s story handed down from family to family over millennia , eventually taken and characters names changed into the ones we find in the bible. One expert in translating them is on utube, IRWIN finkle I think his name is, British museum is where the tablets are, It's worth a look especially if you're still writing your paper.

@J Mireles around 8000 years ago, or 8000 bc , I can't remember without looking , a flood caused the land joining Britain to Europe disappeared because of flooding which created the English channel. I believe there's some truth in the middle eastern flood , because the story survive for so long after being passed down to each generation over millennia. I believe there's a lot of truth in many biblical stories, I'd be interested in reading your work once you finish, do you have a website you'll post it on , if so I'd love to read . I'm interested in Learning anything new , I don't want to take sides , I'm no Christian or atheist, I believe in God but I don't believe everything man writes . Like you I want all the information I can find. Good luck with your work , I genuinely mean that, theres not enough people like you on utube who actually seek all info . Most decide what to believe without looking for evidence or information. I respect people like yourself who go beyond what the majority do .

I read something and I liked it, it goes as follows; the reason why different civilisations recall the idea of there being a massive flood was because prophets (sent around the world) taught the story to to bring them closer to God by giving an example of a wrong doing people while also telling history of human kind. And these stories come back whenever there is a flood as a remembrance but the story gets corrupted over time.

That is true. Once, the Northsea was above sea level. During the ice-age, most of the water was captured in Glaciers and the sea level was very low.The Northsea bassin, which is very shallow, dried out completely. At the end of the ice age, it gradually filled with water coming from the Thames, Rhin, Meuse and Escaut again.

This follows closer to the land bridge failure between 8500 and 11000 years ago in the Arabian Gulf. The Southern cliffs of Iran dip to depths of 150 Meters meaning a river existed there before the floodong occurred. As well, Bahrain was a swamp at that time. Flooding would have caused the exact problems noted as the ground in those areas was already saturated with water. If you check the depths to this day, most of the water covered areas are only 50 meters deep with the exception of where the river was.

If this were to also be the case with the Israelites/Hebrews, you'd expect them to make claims such as being descendants of the Sumerians, but this isn't so. A similar example I can think of would be the Aztecs, who while they did make somewhat extraordinary claims about their origins ultimately believed their own origins were more humble than "descendants of powerful civilizations of yore".

Noah's flood is a hard pill to swallow for modern people indoctrinated into the principles of Uniformitarianism. The geography of the antediluvian earth was far different than today's. There were no high mountains. There was one continent: Pangaea didn’t exist 350 million years ago but 10,000. The transformation of the earth was due to a worldwide CATASTROPHE. In Genesis the original Hebrew makes recurrent reference to catastrophe. It didn't rain in the antediluvian earth because the earth orbited a different star; probably the brown dwarf Saturn where it orbited within the dwarf star’s heliosphere. This would account for the antediluvian earth covered in perpetual mist, why it never rained, and why Adam and his descendants lived so long; the canopy kept out the harmful cosmic rays that age people prematurely. Drinking water came up through springs. That's why Noah witnessed the 1st rainbow as the catastrophe shifted the earth’s orbit. The sudden upheaval of mountains is a recent event. Lake Titicaca in the Andes is a good example of this and the lake still supports oceanic life-forms at 10,000 feet altitude. The Ark was not a ship. It had no propulsion, no steering, no masts nor sails. It was a floating barge that didn’t go anywhere.

I honestly believe that the account of the Flood in Genesis was intended to depict a global flood. The textual evidence is too strong to conclude otherwise. Furthermore, there are certain logical reasons why the Flood story would completely fall apart if it were simply a local phenom. God went to too much trouble to call out Noah. Why not simply do what He did with Abraham and tell him to move to a different part of the world? Having Noah build an ark then having to get all the animals to gather at that location in order to be saved from drowning doesn't make sense if their "kind" would have been safe otherwise. No, a regional flood makes the whole story nonsensical and superfluous. "I'll put a rainbow in the sky to show that I'll never destroy the earth by flooding again. Oops, I lied because regional floods are still happening all over the earth."
@NorthForkFisherman3 жыл бұрын

The impact hypothesis is not accepted as a fact in Academica, there could bebother culprits such as volcanes, but there was an impact, because there has been observed Platinum spikes in ice cores and peat samples from around the globe, but not enough to have caused a planetary catastrophe, in fact human seems to thrive and multiply at the time.

Near Eastern texts like those that record Alexander's and Sargon's conquests typically when referring to "the world" mean the "the well known world", as both conquers are described as having conquered the world but it is obvious that they didn't in the sense of the whole earth and that they and their contemporaries knew that they didn't. Treating the Bible as another Near Eastern text, it would at least mean that it is written in the same style and uses the same idioms. So most of the time when they say "the world", they mean "the well known world".

I kinda disagree. It's one thing to say that that different cultures have records of the same historical event (the flood). It's another thing to have them all make an account of a divinely ordained person to survive the flood by way of constructing a boat and bringing all the necessities of life on board. That kind of detail and narrative flow is too specific for me to believe anything other than they originated from the same story. I think an important thing to consider is the age of the evidence we currently have for the dating of this event. That being the younger dryas of 12800-11500 years ago. At that time, we have evidence humans were making use of early pottery, maybe early agriculture, maybe early basic metal working (as you've said), but the key is that we lack evidence of writing. If settled culture existed in the area at the time; seems pretty likely due to the relatively recent uncovering of sites like Gobekli Tepe and Catalhuyuk in Turkey, hell even Jerhico in Palestine, I think a more likely explanation is that the differences in versions could be chalked up to passing that story down orally among diverging cultures for thousands of years before anyone figured out how to write it down, rather than each culture coming up with the story independantly. What culture, or who came up with the story in the first place and how it diverged into the varying ancient cultural accounts of the fertile crescent is probably lost in time to us due to the inability to trace it back further than the invention of writing. But, on the plus side, we still have tens of thousands of cuneiform tablets sitting untranslated in various museums around the world that might be able to shed light on it, if we can only get enough people to learn to read them to translate them all. That piece of the genetic bottleneck of the younger dryas is news to me, I was only aware of the one of 74,000 YA, not one from 12000 YA. Excellent video dude, even if you've failed to convince me, you've still succeeded in making me think. Cheers.
