Hahaha, that's fucking hilarious, somebody actually really thought that would make sense?

Urine? The floors the animals were standing on were tilted, so it would flow out holes in the sides of the Ark.
Given that the Ark was a massive boat, 45 feet tall, and drafted 22 feet of water (half its height), how is that solution suppose to work for the animals on the lower decks?

Default Uh, well...

Maybe the urine of the animals on lower levels was hauled up by a sophisticated wind-powered hydraulic system and automaticallydumped over the side. Or maybe it just evaporated magically. Or maybe it was mostly plants and insects on the lower levels, and they don't urinate. Or... Oh, heck, I'm sure there is an answer, I just can't think of a dumb enough one yet.

God's brita filter of life cleansed the urine so that noah and his family could then redistribute this water to the animals, yeah. It all makes sense if you just accept the holy spirit (LSD) and read the bible with its guidance.

Hahaha! As I recall, this nonsense did indeed originate with Mr. Woodmorappe, and has been improved upon by Dr. Sarfati, under the alias of 'Socrates' at Tweb. I am vastly impressed.

What these paragons of wisdom fail to take into consideration is that there is no way that eight terrified and seasick people are going to tend X thousand animals for a year+ in a urine, feces, and vomit befouled, wooden ship for even a week, whatever labor-saving devices are in place.

Ain't no big deal. The Ark, as described, would never have survived much longer than it's launch in the Flood, as described.

Unless they have the providence of God--which then pretty much nullifies any of the scientific arguments, doesn't it?
