Noah's Ark

Can you believe it? Scientists may have found Noah's Ark!!!!! That could just confirm millions of people's faith out there. It's amazing....
Well, supposedly there was a satellite photo of a glacier on mount ararat (where the Bible says the ark ended up) and theres a large dark spot in this glacier that could be the ark!!!!!! gosh this is great!!!!!! 😱

if anyone has any updates, post!!!!!!!!!!

heared of the no-religion rule?

oh well, as long as no mod has bothered closing:

it means nothing
there were and are still floods, in all parts of the world there are legends about a huge flood, and still they all survived. So what you might have foudn a piece of a boat?

yes yerssot most people hvae heard of the no religion rule.

I hope the mods wont close this for no reason
As long as it stays clean it should stay open

Before I can comment, I need your sources. Was this published in a scientific journal, and if so, which one?

was on the news today gregory they have found something

anywayz as yerss says this proves nothing

the evolution thread turned quite religious...but it was an excellent debate and everyone kept their cool. I hope the same goes here.

Personally I find it hard to believe the story in the 1st place. How is one guy going to find 2 of every animal on the planet?

Steve Irwin the croc hunter has trouble finding crocs sometimes and it's his job....Noah was just handy with a hammer.

doesn't matter really since it is just symbolism

The news is not a reliable source for scientific information. And I still don't know who found something. I'm not claiming that they didn't find something, but in 1989, there were news reports that Noah's Ark had been discovered. Remember? Probably not, since once an actual team of scientists looked into it, it turned out to be perfectly natural.

well if they only found i today or yesterday I dont think you're gonna find much more scientific information 😛

and if it was on the news (dunno about the news in the US but that in belgium usualy is pretty right) they will have found something

and it won't be the ark since that thing doesn't exist

Fire... if you got it from VTM... than it's mostlikely a blown up story 😉

There is the historical prove of a flood of the Euphrates in old Babylonia and of ark who probably finished is travel in mount Ararat during that flood . I think people must search for more information before talk about something. And: some of the older biblical stories are true and based in real facts. But dont misunderstood history and religion. History can be a the essence of religion but an arc is not a prove of nothing..just an historical fact.

And dont argueabout this with me bcs I have enough christian education to f*** you all. It is the necessary condition to be agnostic.

Sorry for my bad humour but my dinner was awful..

But now talking serious: my grand pappa lost his boat near Ararat 😱

of course, the chance of there actually being a boat made are very high, the crap of it being devine and this "noah" to have gotten all animals (well, two of each) on the ship... no chance

than we can start believing the indian story of the whale

bible is full of alegoric stories...just remember KMC Tower ...err Babel Tower 🤨

ok found it

The story of a boat like structure on Ararat or a nearby mountain has been current since at least the Middle Ages... it crops up every now and then when news is slow, and then dies down again. several expeditions have examined the strange structure with mixed results... some have "proved " it ton be natural, others have "proved it to be man-made... give me a week or two and I can give you abit of a bibliography... there are actually at least two such formations, one on Ararat itself, and one about fifty miles away if memory serves... one interesting theory is that they were built in the erly middle ages by monks wishing to cash in on the lucrative pilgrimage business....

Mount Ararat in Armenia 🙂 woot Armo power 🙂

damn turks took our land cuz of genocide 🙁

and also many scientists/historians believe that noahs ark (from the bible) is actually taken from a story found in the Epic of Gilgamesh.(mesopotamia)

well, the epic IS very old and does talk about a flood
