I may not believe things exactly as they are written, but I believe they happened. I also believe that, while parables were taught as teaching guides, I believe those people existed and those stories really happened.
Amen!

The Lord said to Noah:
There's gonna be a floody, floody,
The Lord said to Noah:
There's gonna be a floody, floody,
Get those children out of the muddy, muddy,
Children of the Lord.
So Noah,
He built him, he built him an arky, arky,
Noah,
He built him, he built him an arky, arky,
Built it out of gopher barky, barky,
Children of the Lord.
The animals, the animals,
They came in by twosie, twosies,
The animals, the animals,
They came in by twosie, twosies,
Elephants and kangaroosie, roosies,
Children of the Lord.
It rained and poured,
For forty daysie, daysies,
It rained and poured,
For forty daysie, daysies,
Nearly drove those animals crazy, crazies,
Because AFF is an open forum (anyone can read. but only members can post)NFS is like prisoners held on Alcatraz, they could see San Francisco (read posts), but were held prisoner from participating (posting). Poor guy.

One Elephant can eat 200 lbs of food per day, and drink 50 gallons of water. Currently there are 3 species of Elephants, which would make a total of 6 on the Ark. To feed all six, for only the 4 month stay on the boat, the total food needed; 72 Tons of food, and 6000 gallons of water.
This does not include the food needed to sustain the six animals once they land on high ground. The earth being covered by water for almost 4 months would devastate the Earths eco system for food.
We also have an exercise problem. In the wild, they can cover up to 50 miles in a single day if food is scarce, but usually travel a few miles every day. But Elephants require exercise or they die prematurely.
We also have the maintenance problem. Animals in captivity require human care. With only 8 on the vessel, this floating Zoo housing millions of species is understaffed. (San Diego Zoo has about 400 Species.)
We also have the "Bathroom" problem.
Besides the Elephants, we have other species on board needing a special "Environment" to keep them alive. Penguins need land, water, and cold temperatures. Hippo's need land and water and warm temperatures. Oh, and don't forget the "Bathroom" problem, and the food problem (Penguins need fish, Hippos need plants, and enough for 4 months of being on the high seas, plus the time of a whole new eco system developing).
We also have a Boat load of meat eaters. Tigers, alligators, Bears, Snakes, Dogs, Wolves, Ferrets, hyenas, mongooses, and so on. These fanged creatures lose their cool when they get hungry!!
And the "Bathroom" problem.
Estimates prove, the Ark could never house the millions of creatures, lacking room, food supply, sanitary conditions, exercise, and man power to care for the amount of life on Noah's Ark. Next time you go to the Zoo, look at the effort required while keeping animals in captivity.
we dont have a food problem
we dont have an exercize problem
we dont have a maintanance problem
we dont even have a bathroom problem
what it seems you have is a God problem.
Which one of the "problems" you have posed is impossible for God?
