Noah's Ark is a great story, and it is no wonder that is one that captures the imagination of so many children when they hear it.

But I find it amazing that thinking adults can see it as a real event. Not just the ark's existence and voyage in itself, but the implication that its inhabitants were able to entirely repopulate the world in several thousand years.

The Bible contains a lot of stories which are too fantastical to be believed as any more than just that - stories. But does that mean that the fundamental truth of Christianity is flawed? No, not necessarily.
Just as with any story we hear, we must analyse it and sort out truth from myth.

Walter. I think there is an error in your nos. The ark did not float for 40 days. It floated for 1 full year. The rain lasted 40 days

Is it possible for a wooden vessel to survive such a long period?Absolutely impossible - by human terms. How can the food last that long? There would have been total chaos in the ark, with all the wild animals living side by side with the others..

That's why Noah's ark has been the subject of countless cartoons and jokes, and majority of modern Christians do not believe there actually was such an ark and a global flood that destroyed all air-breathing creatures?

As for me, I believe it, simply because the bible says so. Without faith, it is impossible to please God.
