The Biggest Misconceptions About Noah’s Ark DEBUNKED

[@TheRealTrucido]

People dont realize that boat manufacturers still use the same scaled dimensions to build ships. Cruise ships, etc, are all the same measurements scaled.

[@earthisasphere]

This is a complete and total lie. Modern ships are built based off advanced mathematics, physics, and computer simulations. Nothing is scaled down from the Ark.

Noah & his family were the Greatest Shipbuilders of all time, but God was the Designer with explicit directions.

[@TheRealTrucido]

@@RPAGN To be frank, if God says build it x, x, and x big, thats the entire boat. No need to name different parts specifically. Unless im missing something, the ship dimensions includes the hull... because that is part of the ship... But either way, petty argument against God. How about you explain the universe which isnt eternal coming into existence without a thinking mind? Oh wait you cant. Because it is impossible. Just like a video game doesnt create itself, nor did the universe.

[@TheRealTrucido]

@@RPAGN I do understand how the universe came to being, because God told us. "Can you explain how God came into existence?" Yes... look up the word Eternal. He has always existed. The universe hasn't. Note the difference. Matter doesn't come from nothing. Existence doesn't come from non-existence. Design doesnt come from non-design. Life doesnt come from non-life. Simple. Without God you don't have anything. Like I said previously, that'd be like saying theres a video game out there that nobody programmed into existence. Absurd.

Interpreting the Bible differently =\= denying it. Possibly the most arrogant comment I've ever read.

[@scottb4579]

@@PanzerFox Do you believe the Bible is true? Do you believe God clearly communicated that truth? Do you believe the Bible from OT to NT corroborates and supports the Genesis account? Do you believe the Bible is only communicating one particular truth concerning the length of the creation week and the amount of time that elapsed from Adam to Christ? Do you believe to "interpret" the Bible contrary to that truth is to deny the very word of God? In other words, God clearly told us what he did (create all things), when He did it (in the beginning) and how long it took Him to complete the creation ( 6 24 hour days). We also have genealogies with the ages of fathers at the birth of a son between Adam and Abraham so that we can know how much time elapsed. We have various scriptures supporting a creation week of 6 24hr days a little over 6000 years ago. None support an old earth view. So yes, to interpret the Bible contrary to that information is to deny the truth God has communicated. Billions of years or little more than 6000 years? The Law of non contradiction says two statements that contradict cannot both be true, therefore one premise is false and not God's Word.

[@BruceFox-Lefriche]

Not obeying the so-called God of the Bible is one of the greatest steps forward that humans have made in the previously Christian world. We finally stopped torturing and murdering innocent women accused of witchcraft towards the end of the 18th century. God orders us to kill them. Just as he orders us to kill people for blasphemy, cursing one's parents or simply lighting a fire on the Sabbath day. God’s laws are cruel, barbaric, unjust and disgustingly immoral. We can do far better without him.

The description is not limited to a rectangle. Even today the dimensions of a ship are given in three measurements with the beam, the widest portion of the hull, determining the width. The ratio given in the Bible for the ark, (LxWxH), is used today in the design of ocean going vessels. It provides the most stable hull design.

[@patelk464]

The ark hardly moved because the writers of the story did not know about the rest of the world. Funny that, you would expect a boat to drift out into the ocean and not get stuck in a mountain. As the story was based on the Ark like natural feature, it is hardly surprising it ended up in the mountains.

[@johnvahl762]

In case you haven't read the entire account of Noah. Go back and read it. God gave the dimensions only. The rest was up to the builder. Don't you think that he would use techniques that existed. Or that some of the similar techniques for building ships would still be used today.

[@madogg152]

Wow, I have stated this for decades. The engineering and time to make a proper ship is about 10 times greater than building a shoe box structure.

"Sedimentary rocks may be composed of geological detritus (minerals) or biological detritus (organic matter). The geological detritus originated from weathering and erosion of existing rocks" (slow processes that definitely took a lot of time). "The biological detritus is transported to the place of deposition by water, wind, ice or mass movement, which are called agents of denudation." Where did you get the flood from? 2. Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon. It's used in radiocarbon dating to "determine the age of carbonaceous materials up to about 60,000 years old." Carbon-14 is produced by cosmic rays. "The rate of Carbon-14 production can be modelled, yielding values of 16,400 or 18,800 atoms of Carbon-14 per second per square meter of the Earth's surface" You lied. Or you somehow looked for the wrong sources.

[@earthisasphere]

@@alantasman8273 gibbobux beat me to it. It isn't possible on so many levels. 1) Wherever you heard that there are hundreds of metes of sedimentary rock "across the globe" lied to you. You don't get complete rock strata across a single continent, much less the entire globe. 2) The elephants and their food alone would take up 60% of the space on the ark. For the 3 species we are certain lived during that time you would need over 498,000 kg of food for the voyage (6 elephants, over 150 kg of food per day, 365 days). 8 people gonna gather all that food (and food for the others) while building the ark? 3) Animals from vastly different climates all survived on the same ark for a year? 4) 8 people fed, water, mucked stalls, changed bedding, etc. for almost 7,000 organisms (number from this video) daily? 5) With no vegetation left on earth because it was dead after being under water for an entire year, all the animals exit the ark, and the carnivores just let the herbivores walk away. How kind of them. 6) The carnivores then just wait patiently for all the herbivores to have sex, get pregnant, and give birth before eating anything. 7) The carnivore then just repeat that cycle and also don't eat the young herbivores so the herbivore population can grow, and somehow, the carnivores stay alive. 8) All the while, the herbivores are waiting patiently for 8 people to reseed the earth, and then wait a minimum of months for food to grow. 9) During all of this waiting I guess is when the penguins traveled across deserts and savannas to get to the South Pole from Turkey where most YEC's claim the ark landed. The polar bears also walked all the way to the arctic I guess during this time. And kangaroos to Australia, etc. 10) For the last 4,000 years or more 5.5 species were evolved each day so that we can reach the biodiversity we see today. But you all don't believe in evolution.

I think the Ark basically looked like a big square box similar to a shipping container but many times bigger. No need for a rounded or pointed bow or stern and no need for a rudder. It simply needed to float safely, there was no need to navigate or control its movement as that was Gods responsibility. The voyage lasted exactly the time God planned, and it ended exactly where God wanted it to.

Rude? RUDE?! God didn't have to make rules for us, because NOTHING we do can have any effect on an omnipotent God, unless he wants it to. So the rules are only there because he wants them to be. For example, He GAVE men foreskins, then told us to slice them off. He didn't HAVE to give us foreskins, and he knows everything so he knew he would eventually be grossed out by them, but he gave us foreskins then said whack them off if you love me. That's just one of hundreds of bizarre rules he created that have absolutely NO EFFECT on him, but it amused him to make those rules anyway. God didn't have to make hell, because nothing in the universe can force God to make anything. But he made hell anyway. He deliberately, consciously went through an act of creation to build a torture chamber. If your dad had built a kid-sized torture chamber in your basement, would you think something might be a little...off about dear ol' dad? I mean, who makes a torutre chamber for people he loves? Anyway, he didn't have to, but he did it. He didn't have to do anything with that torture chamber. He could have built it out of curiosity, could have built it just as a symbolic gesture. Instead, he PROMISES that MOST people will go there, under the rules HE INVENTED. So, yeah...I take issue with your use of the word "rude". God doesn't have a "rude" awakening planned for non-believers. God has infinite, eternal, exquisite, excruciating torture for everyone who isn't convinced by the Bible. Flatulence in public is rude. Pointing out someone's obesity is rude. God is bloodthirsty, cruel, and narcissistic. He actually had to have his own son killed to appease his bloodlust in order to even consider tolerating the disgusting presence of non-Jews in his heaven.

Noahs flood is geologically impossible. 1) The sodium carbonate needed for even a small single layer of limestone requires centuries or more of build up of shelled creatures and coral. When explaining the Grand Canyon, in your model, that isn't possible. In the actual model we know that the southwest U.S. was once a shallow seabed, so the sodium bicarbonate could build up over time. 2) The limestone in the G. C. also requires calm, shallow waters to form, like.... a shallow seabed. Not the most violent storm the earth would have ever seen. The hydraulic sorting claim YEC's like to peddle doesn't work either, because the water is still to deep and to volatile. 3) There are multiple places where layers of salt are separated by layers of rock. Sea's would have to evaporate, have a layer (or layers) of rock form, and then the area would have to become a sea bed again. A flood can't explain this. 4) Unconformities don't have the time needed to happen on a 6,000 year old earth. 5) The following were rulers of their respected kingdoms during the flood timelime Egypt- Pepi, Akkad - Sargon, Elam - Helu, and the Indus Valley Civ had been around for 1,000 years and continued for another 1,000 years 5) fossils and stratification layers of rock match predictions of evolution 6) Sand dunes don't have time to form 7) certain layers of rock would require forest fires to exists underwater 8) the amount of energy released during such an event would destroy the earth, also know as the heat problem 9) the mud problem 10) Ocean basins have less than a km of sedimentary rock on top, while the continental shelves are over 12 km think with sedimentary rock, a flood of that magnitude and length would have eroded away much more of the continental shelves 11) We have studied the growth rate of coral form a very long time now, and it doesn't grow fast enough to match your timeline - forget a flood, 6,000 years isn't even enough time. Look into the Eniwetok atoll if you want more info 12) evaporates and shales take too long to form and on and on and on. BTW #1 and #2 point out lies by your Ph.D. presenter.

The evolutionary trees that adorn our textbooks have data only at the tips and nodes of their branches; the rest is inference, however reasonable, not the evidence of fossils. … In any local area, a species does not arise gradually by the steady transformation of its ancestors; it appears all at once and ‘fully formed.’” (Gould, 1977) • “The absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages between major transitions in organic design, indeed our inability, even in our imagination, to construct functional intermediates in many cases, has been a persistent and nagging problem for gradualistic accounts of evolution.” (Gould, 1980) • “All paleontologists know that the fossil record contains precious little in the way of intermediate forms; transitions between major groups are characteristically abrupt.” (Gould, 1982, p. 189) • “No wonder paleontologists shied away from evolution for so long. It never seemed to happen. Assiduous collecting up cliff faces yields … a rate too slow to account for all the prodigious change that has occurred in evolutionary history.

Here is a key point that most apologetics arguments ignore. It illustrates how religion and science are fundamentally different: The work of a scientist doesn't involve studying old, much less ancient, texts. There are some landmark works like the ancient Greeks, Newton's Principia, TOOTS, Einstein's papers, etc. that are read for their historical interest, but none are considered entirely correct or remotely complete. They aren't necessary to include in up-to-date reference libraries, or consulted in laboratories. That's because the body of currently accepted scientific knowledge is constantly changing. Religious beliefs evolve at a comparatively glacial pace. Change is often suppressed by determined forces of resistance until, like the rupture of a tectonic fault, it arrives in a convulsion of mass suffering and violence. Europe, the ME and other regions have been trampled and blood-soaked over the millennia by untold religious conflicts. Frustrated believers look for answers in founding scripture, and another cycle begins. But I digress. Without advances, there's no science being done. If a line of research produces nothing new and worthwhile, it's abandoned. Making new discoveries is kind of the whole point. Pronouncing your predecessors wrong when you can back it up is is an achievement. It may be controversial for a generation, but a new consensus always emerges, without bloodshed or regret for what went before. For example, no branch of evolutionary theory has been strictly 'Darwinian' for a century or more. Genetics hadn't even been discovered, much less DNA, when Charles published TOOTS. He definitely was wrong about some things. He's admired as a visionary genius, not worshiped as a prophet. Criticizing him says nothing about modern science. Fundamentalist scientists just aren't a thing. That's why every time an apologist on KZbin gets worked up about a science quote mined from the 19th or 20th century, they're setting up a straw man. Science doesn't have the obligation to explain its past mistakes, only to recognize them and move forward again. In short, nobody claims Darwin solved evolution for the ages. Even today, no scientists claim that it's well-understood at every level, though enormous progress is being made every year. I'll argue for science, but only as it exists today. All else is an irritating waste of breath.

[@mmaimmortals]

"...key point... ignore..." They aren't ignoring anything. They're avoiding a broad array of logical and factual fallacies like the OP here contains. As an example: " ...or consulted in laboratories..." is a clear factual fallacy. Scientists absolutely consult historic documents in order to attempt to correlate things like varves counts, radiometric dating with volcanic eruptions, and C14 calibrations, not to mention breeds and species of a wide variety of biological organisms. The whole point of refuting Darwin himself is that modern scientific attempts to describe origins are founded on an utter lack of information as you aptly described his specific case. And it's still founded on an utter lack of well correlated information, not to mention logical fallacies. i.e. jumping from common traits to universal common ancestry (with or without busted up fossils as some kind of endorsement) is a non sequitur grand mal. Similarly, finding the "last fossil" in the fossil record isn't some kind of proof of when a species went extinct (dinos some alleged 65M years ago for example), it's nothing more than the last instance a particular species was preserved. To say very much more than that is another one of the glaring non sequitur arguments used to perpetuate the myth of deep time and macro evolution.

[@Yipper64]

1:58 the whole "what does day mean here" argument is interesting because the people who argue that the term could have meant more than one 24 hour day are usually doing it to justify an evolution based time scale... Problem, there's absolutely no way it refers to billions of years. Like assuming its a word that *can* refer to a day, or depending on context more refer to an *era* of some kind, that's *at best* a few hundred years. The usual proof for this being that God's warning to Adam and Eve was that if they ate of the tree that "day" they would die, same word apparently. Which given Adam and Eve didnt physically die in that 24 hour period then it cant mean that. Maybe? But I am unsure. But unless you want to say they went on to live for millions of years, that argument falls flat. Of course in general I think it refers to the "death" like of the world, as in the world becomes a fallen world. Not Adam and Eve's physical immediate death but the gradual decay of their bodies *begins*

[@earthisasphere]

There is no way I am watching a Ken Ham debate. He is dumber than flater earthers. But I did watch this video and found the following lies. 1. There is no way a global flood carved the Grand Canyon. She just looks at the Colorado River and says, "Nuh Uh", that river couldn't carve this. Scientist know to bring evidence, not just "Nuh uh." The Colorado River's flow has decreased more than 20% in the last two centuries alone. It was clearly larger in the past. You just skipped right over that evidence, huh? Science is about evidence, where is yours? Lying by omission #1 2. The type of limestone in the Grand Canyon only forms in calm, shallow waters. It requires massive amounts of calcium carbonate from things like coral and shelled creatures. There aren't even enough shelled organisms alive today to create one of the layers of limestone in the Grand Canyon, much less multiple layers. How would limestone form without calcium carbonate? How would a layer of limestone form, then multiple other layers form, then more limestone form again on top of the other layers? All without calcium carbonate? And during the most violent waters the world would have ever known? It's nonsense. That area was a shallow seabed when the limestone was formed. It was carved by the Colorado River after many changes caused by changing climates and plate tectonics. Lying by omission #2. 3. Dr. Mary Schweitzer found permineralized fossils. They were rock hard. She found iron from blood cells, not full blown blood or blood cells. Outright lie # 1 4. Dr. Schweitzer had to soak said fossils in a powerful chemical bath in order to rehydrate it in order to get that image shown. Lying by omission # 3 AND Lying by deception #1. Also, how do the plants survive a full year underwater? Noah would need at least 6 elephants (at least 3 species were alive during his time). They eat 150kg of food per day. Over the course of a year, that is 498,000kg. The elephants and food alone would take up 60% of the ark. And no, you are not taking juveniles. Elephants are mature enough to give birth until about 15 years old. How did 8 people car for 7,000 or so animals (according to this video) for an entire year? You can't even get them all fed each day. How do the Egyptian and Chinese civilizations survive through the flood time period without interruption? The Egyptians built the pyramids right through the flood timeline. And this isn't even all the issues your flood myth faces.

This would release massive amounts of hot water into both the oceans and sky (causing even more rain, along with massive tsunamis). Volcanism would have put massive amounts of toxic gases and mineral into the sea and rain as well (acid rain). Much of the sediments would have been eroded from the land into the sea (Most of Canada's topsoil has been washed down into the Great Plains and Gulf of Mexico by floodwater, the hills tend to be made of sandstone of gravel from the event). This massive erosion of rock and minerals from the land (along with upwelling from the deep sea vents) would have also made the seas much saltier than they were before. In the aftermath of the Flood, it is theorized that the evaporative effect from much higher average ocean temperatures would have triggered a long period of climate instability, likely leading to periods of extreme warming and cooling (the ice ages). Creationists simply believe that Evolutionists are interpreting their timescales wrong for some of the events (breakup of the continents and ice ages). With all of this, there would have been massive amounts of extinctions of sea life, in addition to the land creatures. Many of the current species of sea creatures would have split off from common ancestors that survived the events of the Flood.

Do you even understand how limestone forms? The type of limestone in the Grand Canyon only forms in calm, shallow waters. It requires massive amounts of calcium carbonate from things like coral and shelled creatures. There aren't even enough shelled organisms alive today to create one of the layers of limestone in the Grand Canyon, much less multiple layers. How would limestone form without calcium carbonate? How would a layer of limestone form, then multiple other layers form, then more limestone form again on top of the other layers? All without calcium carbonate? And during the most violent waters the world would have ever known? It's nonsense. That area was a shallow seabed when the limestone was formed. It was carved by the Colorado River after many changes caused by changing climates and plate tectonics.

There a billions of marine fossils buried in sedimentary layers around the globe attesting to a global flood. Shelled creatures like clams typically die with their shells open but those found in the fossil record have their shells closed ..evidence of rapid and deep burial. Closed marine shell fossils can even found at the summit of Mt. Everest.

My favorite part was where they used the bible to gauge how old the earth was instead of presenting actual evidence. The bible is not the evidence, the bible is the claim.

[@timconstable7348]

Those who claim the Earth is billions of years old don't use the evidence either. They use a particular INTERPRETATION of evidence based on materialistic thinking. Rocks don't come with a date barcode!

@@VisshanVis They measure the (tiny) amounts of unstable elements, and rely on many unproveable assumptions. If a rock containing a very small amount of a daughter element is washed over by water containing much more of that daughter element, some of it from the water will be left behind in the rock. Did this happen with the sample? Who knows! If the water contained much less of the daughter element, it will absorb some of it from the rock. Did this happen? Who knows! The same can be said for the parent elements. These are all unproveable assumptions the technique is based on. It also depends on the rate of radio-active decay being constant the whole time. It is known that environmental factors can affect the rate of decay. Did this happen? Who knows! It leads to rocks recently formed at Mt. St Helen's being dated to over 1M years - and 22,000 year old snails!

@@timconstable7348 Your claims still don't take away from the fact that the 2 uranium elements have half-lives of a minimum of 700 million years and it has proven that the methods used to date different things are very reliable despite what the anti-science groups claim.

Already done in a series of controlled floatation tests, there are 3 floating replicas, all seaworthy, and the standard units of dimension ratios is ship-standard for today's ships. The Netherlands Ark is still floating since 1990. The Japanese ones still float (unsure of the year, but post-2010). And the tanks had to try to sink the test-tank replica with a simulated 142ft wave, in a Force 12 gale. I've sailed on an aircraft carrier in a force 9. That was scary. The bow was smashed and needed backfilling with concrete to limp home to port. Deck J-outer was obliterated. The Ark did better.
