You reject Christ everytime you turn to Paul to find a explaination of what christ meant,,,read christ He knew how to convey an idea without help from anybody.
And I know I am blessed and so are you, becasue you are still alive and breathing. God has given you millions of chances to accept his son but you still reject him, how sad. :'(

Q: Do you think they'll ever find Noah's Ark? I've been fascinated by some of the documentaries I've seen about the search for the Ark, and if they found it I think it sure would make people take the Bible more seriously. — R.K.
A: Dear R.K.,
Yes, it certainly would cause a sensation if explorers did discover Noah's ark (which is described ...[text shortened]... 8:30). Make sure of your commitment to Christ, and then let His Word guide your steps every day.
Lets consider the logistics of building such a ship?
To house all those animals it would need to be a large ship, which means lots of wood. Then there is the transportation of the wood to the building site. Cutting & shaping the pieces of wood to the correct size. Then building the ship itself. Finally sealing the hull ship so that it doesn't leak.
To build a ship of this size would take a reasonably large size work force, most of which would have to be skilled labour. In short Noah must have been a very wealthy man.
Yes, unfortunately for you true believers the ark myth is based around a history of flooding in the tigress and euphrates river valleys.
The point of the story is not that there's an ark somewhere to go an waste money on trying to find - it's a moralistic story, same as most kid's nursery rhymes.
The moral is, do what god says, and he'll save you.
As an atheist I don't swallow that of course, but christians (and jews of course - it is their book after all) should spend less time on trying to prove the reality of these stories and understand the moral and ethica points behind them.

True, its the only way I can have an intelligent conversation around here😉
Come on are you really that stupid that you believe all that nonsense about Noah & the ark ?
So you see that it can rain and flood in some parts of the world so I can see that as a sign.
I like to see you tell that to a Jew.

Then you believe that giants also once roamed the earth ?
So you see that it can rain and flood in some parts of the world so I can see that as a sign..
I also see it as a sign, a sign that he does not exist, less you forget genesis chapter 9:11
11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
I like to see you tell that to a Jew.
Most jews arn't that stupid that they would believe the story of Noah hook line & sinker.
