Could Noah's Ark Have Happened Realistically? Well, Yes.

[Todlichebujoku]

A lot of you are disregarding the fact that God could've put the animals in a hibernating state so they didn't need to eat much, and God could've prevented the animals from eating each other.

What did they all eat when they got off the ark? Flood kills vegetation=herbivores die=carnivores die=no life. This is obviously wrong, which makes me question the whole premise of the flood.

Ancient hydroponics!!!!

How do you know the flood would kill vegetation? Vegetation can survive underwater.

Under salt water?

Also, how big was the Ark according to the Bible?

[Herlosk]

I say it's perfectly possible, even plausible, that any number of myths and parables were based on real events.

Some vegetation can survive. Nothing that can attest to the amount of diversity we see today.

Not all vegetation, if accidentally leaving my houseplants out in the rain has taught me anything.

[Wisconsin9]

By killing them by starvation? Yeah, sounds legit.

God could've made them not starve until they got back to their homes. How do you know that God doesn't have that power? You underestimate God's power.

What proof is there that vegetation couldn't survive underwater?

Under saltwater, I mean.

[Lincoltshire]

Well, no.

The amount of water on earth is insufficient. I remember reading somewhere that there are certain indications that the black sea may have filled very quickly after a cataclysmic event, displacing/killing lots of the people who lived in the area. That may be an explanation for the recurring theme of a great flood in ancient mythology and modern religion.

Yeah, no. Most would be unable to get enough sunlight, most would "drown", most would be unable to survive in salt water, etc.

No it can't. Land vegetation, first of all needs fresh water (AKA rain) to survive, having it at the bottom of the ocean would basically make everything shrivel up and die thanks to osmosis, and second of all, would be way to deep underwater to receive any sunlight (scientists call this the midnight zone).

Sprinkle some salt on a plant, then come back here

[Northwest Slobovia]

The bible says that the water covered the highest mountains, so it would be higher then 20 000 feet above sea level, killing all reptiles due to cold and killing everything else due to lack of oxygen

Indeed. The original argument is predicated on "well, the marine life could have just stayed in the water". At levels with sufficient oxygen for them to survive they'd be crushed like a bug.

And depending on which water fell from the skies (or whatever the fairy tale says), either all the salt-water critters or fresh-water critters would have bit it.

Overwatering and road salt kill plants. Why wouldn't the ocean?

Salt kills plants. If you salt a field, it won't grow any crops for a long time. Clicky.

Genesis 6:15 in the Bible tells us the Ark's dimensions were at least 135 meters long (300 cubits), 22.5 meters wide (50 cubits), and 13.5 meters high (30 cubits). That's 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high! It could have been larger, because several larger-sized cubits were used. But the 45-centimeter (18-inch) cubit is long enough to show the enormous size of the Ark.

(A cubit was the length of a man's arm from fingertips to elbow.)

Your name is possibly the most ironic one I have seen on this forum in my entire time here.

Well I'd say it is one of the more imaginative names for a puppet/troll account.
