10 cubits across and 30 cubits around

Not even the new math can explain it, even throwin' in the metric system and a tolerance stack up by an order of magnitude...unless, one hand is at the molecular level...if one hand equals a wood carbon atom...cipher, cipher....oh wait...thats goin' the wrong way...I'm just building a negative Biblical Noah's Ark...whew...3 years in 12th grade finaly paid off!

It could be a billion cubits...it could have the square footage of 10 nuclear powered ocean going aircraft carriers...it still couldn't house and supply consumables for thousands of animals for a DAY, much less forty...it doesn't make any sense...now ya'll quit being silly. One aircraft carrier has to be re-supplied monthly just to feed a few hundred humans.

What matters is THIS;
General Characteristics, Nimitz Class
Builder: Newport News Shipbuilding Co., Newport News, Va.
Power Plant: Two nuclear reactors, four shafts
Length, overall: 1,092 feet (332.85 meters)
Flight Deck Width: 252 feet (76.8 meters)
Beam: 134 feet (40.84 meters)
Displacement: Approx. 97,000 tons (87,996.9 metric tons) full load
Speed: 30+ knots (34.5+ miles per hour)
Aircraft: 85
Cost: about $4.5 billion eachNoah did NOT build one of these!

Yeah, and I'm saying none of that matters....an entire aircraft carrier couldn't it...and somebody expects me to believe that this Noah dude built something BIGGER than an aircraft carrier all by himself?

yeah, but the general discussion is about the bibles accuracy relative to cubit measurement, my argument is that the cubit dimensions have evidently been exagerated on all fronts...but not exagerated enough to allow for the dimensions to actually accomplish the task they are ascribed to.

"Three looking toward the south and three looking toward the east"...thats only six...are we to assume that there were three more looking toward the north and another three looking toward west? If there are only three on the south and three on the eawst, cipher, cipher...it's gonna' fall over (I used my highly advanced math skills again).

A devinely inspired document written by the creator of perfection himself can be off a tad?

but why?, it evidently turned out to be pretty a big deal that is...when there was absolutely no need for it...it's like writing an auto-biography to the human race and not caring if it's right for future generations...surely the all-knowing saw this coming.

Yep, and as you wrote that, you were thinking the whole time; "What I'm writing here is so unnecessary...because it could have already been done".

I figured that...I was just taunting you....

All that hooey is good for you...but it don't do a darn thing for science or the advancement of humanity, it instead, haults progress and takes hummanity BACK 2000 years to create wars and killing over something that is inherently too old and too WRONG!
