What in the hell did lions, hyenas, wolves, jackals, badgers, smilodons, tyrannosauruses, velociraptors and ever other predator that ever lived on this planet need those large nasty meat eating teeth for then? Especially predatory dinosaurs, most Christian rationalize that dinosaurs went extinct* during the flood, are you telling me that tyranosaures lived and went extinct eating shrubbery?*Then again, God did tell Noah to take two of every living thing(6:19 And of every living thing of all flesh), why were dinosaurs not in the boat?
Dinosaurs have been mentioned in the Old Testament such as in the book of Job or Psalms but many dinosaurs (and animals and people) drowned during the flood.

Then by your rational, why would a tyrannosaurus or any other meat eating animal need these(see pics), if all animals ate shrubbery before the flood?
Teeth like these are about 99.9% ineffective in chewing plant matter and that is not taking into account the major differences between a carnivores and a herbivores digestive tract.
How do they know it's the Ark, even if they find something? It might be the wooden floating vessel from the dozens of "world-flood" stories that pre-date Noah and the Bible by hundreds of years and span various different cultures, religions, and civilizations.
...all I'm saying is, they better get the right freaking world-flood. I dislike being lied to about which apocalyptic savior-boat I'm reading about.

Recently the search for Noah's ark has exploded with media attention after we shared pictures of a rock formation found on a high mountain in Iran. I have been careful to position all comments that I am not claiming to conclusively to have found the ark. I am not however dismissing the potential of that find in Iran has significant historical relevance. We think that the Bible and other sources point to Iran as being the most probable resting place for the Ark. Here's why:I, as well as many others in the modern era, have searched Mount Ararat in Eastern Turkey for the remains of Noah's Ark. It pains me to admit this, but I think I've spent a lot of time and money looking in the wrong place. A careful reading of Genesis will reveal why. Genesis 8:4 states, “then the ark rested in the seventh month on the seventeenth day of the month on the mountains of Ararat.” (NKJV)
The mountains of Ararat signify a mountainous region or kingdom. This verse does not refer to a singular mountain named Mount Ararat. Mount Ararat, as such, does not appear in the Bible. Mount Ararat in Turkey, is a singular volcanic cone mountain that rises out of the Anatolian Plain in Eastern Turkey.

What Happened To The Dinosaurs? John Whitmore says,

Genesis 7:2 states that Noah saved two of every representative "kind" of land animal on the ark. Noah would have taken young specimens, not huge, older creatures. Dinosaurs would have emerged from the ark to inhabit an entirely different world. Instead of a warm, mild climate worldwide, they would have found a harsh climate which soon settled into an ice age. If climatic hardships did not cause the dinosaur's extinction, man's tendency to destroy probably did.In the early 1900's on the Doheny expedition into the Grand Canyon, Indian cave drawings were found which closely resembled a duck-billed dinosaur. Legends from ancient China to ancient England have recorded descriptions of dinosaur-like creatures. The Kuku Yalanji aboriginal people have paintings which look exactly like plesiosaurs. These and other intriguing evidences seem to indicate that perhaps that age of the dinosaurs ended more recently than is commonly taught.

Points To Ponder About The Flood
(More Points To Ponder on the site) drdino.com/articles.php?spec=77
1) Over 250 Flood legends from all parts of the world have been found. Most have similarities to the Genesis story.
2) Noah lived 950 years! Many Bible scholars believe the pre-Flood people were much larger than modern man. Skeletons over 11 feet tall have been found! If Noah were taller, his cubit (elbow to fingertip) would have been much larger also. This would make the ark larger by the same ratio.
3) God told Noah to bring two of each kind (seven of some), not of each species or variety. Noah had only two of the dog kind, which would include the wolves, coyotes, foxes, mutts, etc. The "kind" grouping is probably closer to our modern family division in taxonomy, and would greatly reduce the number of animals on the ark. Animals have diversified into many varieties in the last 4400 years since the Flood. This diversification is not anything similar to great claims that the evolutionists teach.
4) Noah did not have to get the animals. God brought them to him (Gen. 6:20, "shall come to thee"😉.
5) Only land-dwelling, air-breathing animals had to be included on the ark (Gen. 7:15, "in which is the breath of life," 7:22). Noah did not need to bring all the thousands of insects varieties.
6) Many animals sleep, hibernate, or become very inactive during bad weather.
7) All animals (and people) were vegetarians before and during the Flood according to Gen. 1:20-30 with Gen. 9:3.
8) The large mountains, as we have them today, did not exist until after the Flood when "the mountains arose and the valleys sank down" (Ps. 104:5-9, Gen. 8:3-8).
9) There is enough water in the oceans right now to cover the earth 8,000 feet deep if the surface of the earth were smooth.
10) The top 3,000 feet of Mt. Everest (from 26,000-29,000 feet) is made up of sedimentary rock packed with seashells and other ocean-dwelling animals.
11) Sedimentary rock is found all over the world. Sedimentary rock is formed in water.
12) Petrified clams in the closed position (found all over the world) testify to their rapid burial while they were still alive, even on top of Mount Everest.
Bob Cornuke is a pseudoarcheologist with no formal training in archeology.
He publishes his books based on anonymous single sources, has been accused of academic forgery, claims he gained access to Iran and Saudi Arabia, forges quotes form scientists to try to garner support. His organization, BASE, is also not a viable scientific organization and relies on private funding from right-wing religious extremists. He has been repeatedly sued based on credibility issues.
I stongly reccomend that you do not take his claims seriously.

Well, when you say such things as that....
People commonly misconstrue the freedom of speech to mean that you can only say things that are societally acceptable. This is not the case. In fact, free speech is meant to protect all opinons, even if they are hateful, hurtful, and considered incorrect.

Wow. 😐
...
People are desperate. Its this whole new "Lets prove religious with 'science'" movement, because everything else they tried has desperately failed.
And all the people who believe them are either too stupid or too uneducated to analyze anything they're told (as I pointed out, this Bob Cornuke guy is a total crackpot).
