But just think about the DUNG on board. We need some farmers to get on here to talk about shoveling the manure pit.
We've had dogs growing up, and my folks had to practically KILL us to shovel the doo. If it was summer time, the back yard stunk, and those soft, mushy piles were tough to stomach while hucking them over the fence and into the neighbors yard!!! 
This ship was bursting at the seams with every conceivable form of waste you can imagine, and Noah's fired up staff probably talked about mutiny.
Anyone on here ever have a bird cage? How about Iguanas? Hamsters? |
During the past couple of hundred years when ships sailed long distances the only thing the people had to drink was beer. Water simply did not stay fresh long enough for trips lasting months. Now the Ark was floating for more then a year -how did they store both the quantity and quality of water needed to keep the people and animals alive?
I know... God COULD have kept it supernaturally fresh, but lets look at all the miracles God would have been required to do for the story of Noah's ark to be literal: Keep the water fresh, as well as providing a constant source of NEW clean water. Keeping the ark 100% water tight. Lowering the appetite of the animals enough for them to survive on almost no food for over a year. Someone transporting certain animals to parts of the world separated by thousands of miles of water.
I have to ask... why do all those miracles then ask Noah to spend over a hundred years making an ark that would not be capable of surviving on its own? It would be like God saying "I want you to build me a space ship out of oak and pine...". In fact a space ship would be nearly as likely.
