Yea but I think the one in Mt Ararat is ''The Ark'' man, its too big to be an ordinary boat. Who knows.
But which one?
Like gargamel said there are multiple claims, that is multiple claims on Mt Ararat as well as multiple claims in different areas.

Perhaps we need some real relics for the faithful, a true shroud from turin, a splinter of the cross or some wine from the wedding at caana, or possibly some authenticated finger bones from the christ...available in boxes of ten.

Christ wasn't around then :O:. Besides how did a boat if it is the Ark get to be on a mountain. A flood :hmmm:

No, God supplied a very large heavy lift helicopter as the flood would have meant speeding up evolution a hell of a lot

Science. But I did ponder on your advice and thanks to the internet this is what I found: :dead:

Chemical properties are derived from the number and the location of the electrons in various orbits around the atomic nucleus; in other words, chemical properties derive from an aspect of particle physics.

Biology is based on a set of processes which essentially occur in an area of organic chemistry (that is, chemistry which involves both the elements hydrogen and carbon); or as Mike Adams famously put it, "organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. Biochemistry is the study of carbon compounds that crawl."

Physics creates the "space" in which chemistry happens. Chemistry creates the "space" in which biology happens. Biological organisms and processes follow the laws of both physics and chemistry, including the laws of thermodynamics, which are important to all three fields.

Carbon compounds are the catch words here:hmmm:

Back to the cave for me...

I would love to have the ark as a mod for Silent Hunter:
"Kapitän, ship sighted, heading Mount Ararat."
"Rohr 1-4, FEUER!" :D

I don't see how building a big boat would either confirm or refute the biblical story of Noah
Well it would help the unemployment rate. The teamsters would like to be a part as well. However the tree huggers might not care for the killing of trees needlessly. Oh well, can't win them all.

Well, he had to do it carefully, else it turns into a bobsled.

Kinda like this:

Hard to port Ham! HARD TO PORT! We're going down!!! BLOW BALLAST!

Just imagine the tonnage......

And the life boat mod to go with that........

Sir, is that a hippo and a giraffe waving for help???

Could you imagine the renown hit you would take for sinking the ark sailing under god's orders?

:o:o:o

When I was a kid I would have loved to seen an Ark, even if I had known it was only a representation. Might help if they keep live giraffes and such there... make it a zoo so it smells like an animal hold. "Two of everything" might be a bit to accommodate for, unless they plan on expanding to the size of who-knows-what. :DL

Although not necessarily the dumbest thing I have ever heard of, this ark business sits very high in the top three...

Oddly enough the other contenders both involve religion. Go figure.

It was a bugger of a patrol, obviously being in the very beginning it was vanilla so the weather was terrible. 40 days and 40 nights and I could't see a single ship through the downpour.

Then behold like a miracle the ark appeared, but no one told me at torpedo school that gopher wood is no good for magnetics:o

I managed a second attempt with impacts a blew the holy bejesus(continuity error) out of the side but it appears noah moved all the dinosaurs to the other side of the ship create such a heel that the holes were out of the water.
Luckily for them God had put in some extra instuctions in a lost chapter of the book of noah which told him to bring spare gopher wood to repair any holes from torps(being all knowing of course), so his sons did that while the women lightened the load by jettisoning the dinosaur excrement with the divine pooper scoopers and the ship was able to sail to a dozen locations in Turkey a few in Iran Armenia, Ethiopia and possibly even Utah

It was at this point in the patrol that I finally realised the slogan "Gott mit uns" was bollox as he was obviously on the other side
