Nice to see priests catch public transport :D

Anyway, I'm not catholic, I'm agnostic

ok.

can you see that that fact in itself doesn't actually disprove noah's ark?

The fact that Australia exists does.

Unless you're saying that Noah magically managed to get every Australian animal on the ark, and then back again.

God doesn't 'let' bad things in the world happen.

we were in a perfect relationship with him which we then spoiled by sinning, and thus we caused the bad things in the world.

nothing is impossible for God. even the collection the re-dispursement of all earthly animals.

you are correct, something like that can not happen without the help of God.

obviously non-thiests won't accept that argument.

No, the sins of the father don't work that way. Sorry, but that's illogical.
its only illogical if you are perfect and your father isnt. which isn't true. we are all just as bad in God's eyes

Not massive.

In fact, not very big at all.

Aside from the extremely questionable feasability of the construction of an ark the size of noah's, and the fact a flood that covers all the land mass on earth makes no sense at all.

There's the simple question of the impossibility of taking care of all the animals on the ark. The number of people on the ark is a small known value, a dozen or so. Mammal species alone, there are millions of pairs of unique species each requiring individual care daily. Supposing an unrealistically low 10 minutes of care a day is needed per species, even working non stop without rest for the arks journey, it is plainly impossible for that many people to care for that many animals

It's a fairy tale.

Ah! And there it is. "We don't know how it would have been done, in fact it's impossible, so to make the story true: God did it!"

Even God could not have fit every species of animal on the ark. That is a fact. And what about the plants?
