Where do people get off being this ignorant? Look at the cross-section of the ark, I mean c'mon, just look at it. There's no way that thing would float, and I'd be damned if a couple people could care for all those animals if it did float. I liked the one I saw in a picture with the title "Where was Jonah?". Lol, why he was in the stomach, having his ass slowly digested...

The ark cross section is actually pretty neat. I build wood ship models - but nothing that large. Mine are only about 2 ft. long/high. Apparently it was so good that it was in the "science fair" two years in a row, cammo table cloth and all.

13. Do Lilydale closed clam fossils support a world wide flood? Collect 100 shells and compare.
What good would it do to collect shells? This whole "closed clams indicate a flood" thing is, as you all know a red herring. Anyone who has been to a New England clam bake (actuallly they are steamed) can tell you that you throw away any clam that is open before you steam them. If you disturb clams, they close. Therefore, an open clam is dead. After you steam them, you throw away any clam that is closed. It was dead and closed before it was steamed. Sometimes they die and remain closed.

Now imagine a bed of clams that are sitting on the sea bed open and feeding. Suddenly, an underwater land slide falls on them. As the first impact hits they snap shut. Buried, they are unable to open as they die so they are fossilized closed. Later, as the Indian plate pushes into the belly of the Asian plate, they are scraped up to the top of Everest. Closed, fossilized clams.

No big deal.

Or the Fludd buries them where they lie--right at the top of Mount Everest, you heretical atheist skum.
