...he thinks there'll be a sign on the side saying "NOAH'S ARK"...

LOL!

The joke is on you.
And FYI
You do not have to be an atheist to believe there were no Noah's ark.

Well, at least thats what the archeologists that found it think.

However, similar structures have been found on Mt. Ararat. Most of the experts from the area are very skeptical.

Even so, without carbon dating, analysis, and its small size, the Christian group that did the research said they are "99.9% sure" that its Noahs Ark.

Heres a picture.
Did they find that damn thing again. How come they keep losing it, what's this the forth or fifth time they found it.

It'd be funny if it was someone else's ark.

"Ah hell, this is Steve's Ark, not Noah's, look he carved his name in the side of it..."

Have we made any progress on finding the Ark of the Covenent yet? I know there was a big effort in the 1930s--whatever happened with that?

If one does not believe in evolution, how many different species would have had to embark the ark? Over 50 million! And one old man fed, gave water, and cleaned up after them. BTW, where was all the food stored???

That was in the revised version.

Noah actually took three of everything so there would be two left at the end of the cruise.

OK jokers. had your fun? Even if it isn't Noah's Ark, it's a wooden structure over 4,000 years old up on a mountain in Turkey. Who could have built such a structure where there's little to no wood of the size shown in the photo and where did the wood come from? Those are questions that deserve to be answered no matter what your belief.

But, will they have turned out to have found even a boat, or will it end up being a cabin or long house type structure instead?

They do know that two of all animals, even just the main ones in the region, wouldn't fit, right?

Did they simply find what they were looking for, instead of what is there?

Some poeple should study history a bit closer. The Flood story has been found across a number of cultures......And it remains oddly similer in each one....
Here let me help.....

Just want to point out that this discovery was made by a group of evangelicals. Make of that what you will.

I highly doubt that they have found Noahs Ark. It would seem that an interesting historical find has been uncovered though. I find it entertaining how the Christian haters come out of the woodwork whenever a archeological find pertaining to Biblical times is unearthed and how fast they move to try and discredit it. Other controversies indeed............
