Three Cheers for Noah's Ark

Glug, Glug, Glug: All the Animals of the World on a Boat

     In the Bible in the book of Genesis chapters 6, 7, and 8 the story of Noah and the ark is presented by what is supposed to be the words of God...literally. Now, you must ask how this God/Creator Who is so precise that he creates gravity and thermo-dynamics...well, how in the world can a being who creates things in such a precise manner suddenly become very non-precise in how He does things in the story of Noah's ark? How does this amazingly precise God suddenly forget the size and number of all the animals that He supposedly created as He tries to get this 600 year-old coot, Noah, to gather all of the animals on a puny ark?

So, I like the question presented here in this little cartoon. How does a perfect God create something that is imperfect, and not only that, how does He not seem to know how shit will turn out? You would think that a perfect God would never experience such a thing as regret...such as when he regrets making man.

This cartoon does an excellent job of asking pointed questions about the retarded stroy of Noah's ark. Where did the food for the animals go? Where did the water for the animals go? How did the animals breathe at the high elevation of the ark, considering that the water covered the highest peak (Mount Everest)? How did the animals all get along? What did they do with all the animal poop? How do the animals in the water survive the mixing of salt and fresh water and the change in pressure anr temperature of the water? What do the animals eat after the flood? How do two animals populate the world with their species?

So, God decides He is pissed off with men because they are greedy and evil. God is seriously pissed, and instead of teaching the men how to behave He decided it would be better to drown the lot of men on the earth. This is the story that people repeatedly read and teach their children as truth. Nice. Now the way that people who believe this crap word it you would think it is all possible.

This is simply an outstanding clip put together by Thinking Atheists. They do have some very good points which is pretty much the biggest problem many Christians have with Atheists...the Atheists make sense.
