Has anyone ever wondered how Noah collected all these animals. I mean there are bears and mooses and siberian tigers and all kinds of animals all over the world that doesn't exist around the parts where Noah lived... I think...

And, oh, yes... How did he get those ravaging beasts of predators to gently strawl along into the ark without having a feast on the rest of the animals?..

So many questions. My head is aching now...

[Edit: Oh, I see, it was God, apparently, that brought them two by two to the ship...]

Uhm... I really must catch up on my reading...

Jumping link to link from your reference it says that Noah was 500 years when his first son was born and that it took him seventy years to build the ark.

Well, now I can see it all happening. With that kind of life-span and so much time to do the work, anyone can conceivably build an ark and collect all the animals...

My question has been answered. I thank you, Halitose.

And what really pisses me off, is that he had the potency to make love at the age of 500 (without Viagra !!! )... They sure don't make us like the old days, eh?..

Maybe the animals just don't live in the same place NOW. MAybe they all lived together in the same place back then... I can see it now, the mighty Lion and the Reindeer leaping from log to log as they float down the rivers of british columbia... wait, no, I went all abit Monty Python there for a second....

Maybe he just picked all the animals up at 'Zebidiah the Jew's Petting Zoo'.

At the time of the Flood, there were no Jews.
Noah was Gentile.

a) how did the animals, once released, would have had a serious genetic bottleneck (i.e. all the genetic variation in the world contained in those two organisms), how did the animals survive when microbes would evolve to kill them very quickly.

b) plants can't survive for 40 days and nights underwater. don't be dumb. better still, fill your bath ...[text shortened]... ow did flightless birds get here? Did Noah drop them off?

d) what happened to all the water?
a)Through science this is what is believed would happen now under those same circumstances.If it did happen and then happened again then the results would be different again.Your judging this on the little we have and know today...instead of the time back then(that we know even less).Mabey this is why brothers/sisters could have children and
we lived a long age.....Did our genetics hold a greater potential back then.'Junk satelite' is interesting.
b)Seeds?
c)Mabey the land moved.Did God drop them off?
d)It specifically says in the Bible how the water came from inside the earth....so it prob. went back where it came from.
Hmmmm.also sorry i guess. 🙂

Or, in keeping with the times:
Zebidiah The Half-Man/Half-Nephilim's Petting Zoo.
As those familiar with the story likely already know, this interaction with man was one of the main impetus' of God's flood intervention.

You know that all the animals were vegetarian before the Flood right?
