Who could resist fishing...
...in the biggest body of water ever created? Maybe NO-ah was an avid fisherman and brought along earthworms b/c he wanted to fish!
Wait, sorry, we don't use earthworms for saltwater fishing. Maybe the earthworms survived in the dirt NO-ah used to cover the floors of the stalls in which he kept the stegasaurus!

Re: Who could resist fishing...
Thanks, Deathknight. But the scary thing is that creationist societies all over the US have this painting of the inside of the ark, and guess what, you see the top of a stegasaurus in the foreground!
Now, if NO-ah had to carry some dinosaurs, how much room would be left for anything else? Also, how much freakin' food would just one stegasaurus go through in one day alone?
It just amazes me what some grown adults believe

This reminds me of part of a Monty Python movie
Do you remember the first scene in the Holy Grail when Arthur is stuck in the middle of a conversation with two guards at a castle. He comments that a swallow could carry a coconut by gripping it by the husk. The two guards try to ratioanlize and come up with a way this could be done. One type of swallow is big enough but not migratory. Two small swallows could carry the coconut btwn them with a strip of bark held beneath a feather. Arthur then leaves the guards after realizing that he would not be heard for the real reason he was there--to get a knight for the round table.
I realize that this type of conversation occurs anytime you debate a "flood geology" believer. They start with a misconception and then try to rationalize it. The only problem is--the more they try to rationalize, the more rediculous their position becomes. No amount of information (or disinformation or misconstrued information or purposely neglected information) supports a worldwide flood, period. I can see having fun with this type of conversation and enjoying the pleasure of ripping apart blatantly incorrect thought and bringing down low the grand false ideas of our time, but at what point to we just drop it and get on with better things?
So, for all of you "great flood" defenders, have a nice life. Keep searching for your coconut-carrying swallows. The rest of us will be busy filling-in the gaps of our knowledge of this world. Ark or not, fountains of the deep or not, ice canopies, "polystrate" fossils, "kinds", etc. None of this matters. They are BS, no, worse than BS. They are just plain false. Nhee!
