Well, now I see your problem....You believe the scriptures to be true....Your "historical" accounts are just testimonials from other people who are as gullible as you are....Meaningless.

Contradictions are par for the course here.

Yes, it is really and exactly true. Despite your non thinking attempts to deny what you have written.

Others who have been discredited or are believed only by those with an existing agenda that they want confirmed (YOU).

Suggesting, no. Flat out saying it, that they and you are deluded, yes.

Confirmed by a book of myth, eyewitnesses who would be dismissed in court as unreliable and fuzzy photos that you interpreter as being something (the photographic resolution does not support your claims however). Plus you see something and claim it has to be man made without ever having it been reliably explored or documented. Just like all of your claims.

Historical? Like the Greek myths? Like all of the deceptive books on religion that even the religious have rebuked as false?

By convincing yourself that all this is true, without any doubt, you expose your bias and intellectual dishonesty. You have been given multiple examples, which you choose to ignore or out of a lack of intellectual honesty discard without reason. You continue to believe only what you want to believe despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary. You continue to not answer uncomfortable questions or try desperately to change the subject to get away from them.

If I had your religion, I would tell you your final destination, and it isn't heaven.

Just in passing, as a litmus test for truth of any religious claims.

If Campbell supports/believes them, you can figure they are wrong. He has done more to create unbelievers than anyone else on these boards.

Just my opinion.

Well if the Bible is being confirmed by those who actually saw the Ark of Noah on the very mountain the Bible said it landed. And if they saw the Ark with their own eyes. Well, would it really be a question of being gullible?

The problem is you are trying to use the ark story to confirm the bible, while at the same time trying to use the bible to confirm the ark story....Round and round we go......"If they saw the ark with their own eyes". Notice how big that "if" is?

Here, go educate yourself.
How mountains are made (http://www.mountain.org/education/subexplore/explore02.cfm - broken link)
You can get to the top of Arrat, you just cannot get to the Ark that is near the top, and covered by 70 to 80 feet of ice, and at least a quarter mile of deep crevasses. Only after three or four very hot summers in a row is it possible to get near to it. And this does not happen very often. Yet, all the past eyewitness accounts have occured during such hot spells.

Greetings,

It's Ok to believe in the incredible account of "Noah's Ark' !!!

The key word here is "Believe" and with the incredible amount of various religious beliefs on this planet the "Christian's among us of course may most certainly choose to believe in the "miraculous story of a "Spititual Giant" simply named "Noah" and the "Stupendous" account of the "Ark"!

Christians believe that Almighty God inspired a man called Noah to undertake the most daunting task of building an Ark for His Divine purposes. If others believe differently..... Well thats Ok also and of course no hard feelings to anyone who differs of opinion on this most "Profound" matter.

The biblical account of Noah's Ark is a truly beautiful and inspirational story that has become a favorite childrens bedtime story for centuries untold and just one more dynamic example of just how totally "Awesome" is the mighty God we serve.

And remember folks ... for those of you whom profess an "Unbelief" regarding "Noah's Ark" ... It's perfectly up to you ! Please exercise your personal choice as you see fit !!!

Christians are simply exercising their choice and their belief in the "Living God"...

Remember now it's a "Personal Choice" and thank God we all at least still live in a country that allows our personal choice to continue !

Do you remember hearing that most intriguing and comforting Biblical account of "Noah's Ark" when you were just a very young child ?
It may even be the very bedtime story that gently lulled you into a peaceful sleep ! Do you remember it ?

Thank You / Lamar
