There are between 5 million and 8 million species of beetles.  How did Noah get all of them in the ark?

The lord God helped Noah gather the animals of the world he did not do it alone.He wouldn't have had enough time.Do you believe in miracles?It was God's gift to the people not to destroy the world but to cleanse it.Why do you think we have rainbows after a storm.He asked us to forgive him.

This is a hard question though it does not say specficly that dinosaurs was created in the Bible, God did give Adam the authority to name every living creature..\n\n\n\nThe Bible refers to many the common animals we know today. The list includes lions, wolves, bears, sheep, cattle and dogs along with various kinds of birds, rodents, reptiles, and insects. What is interesting is that this extensive list includes three animals that we no longer recognize. These three are (in the original Hebrew language) tanniyn, b@hemowth (yes, it’s spelled correctly—at least as close as we can get in Roman characters), and livyathan.\n\n\nAlthough we alter the spelling of behemoth and Leviathan slightly, we still use those same words in bibles today. However, tanniyn is always translated into another word when we write it in English. Tanniyn occurs 28 times in the Bible and is normally translated “dragon.” It is also translated “serpent,” “sea monster,” “dinosaur,” “great creature,” and “reptile.” Behemoth and Leviathan are relatively specific creatures, perhaps each was a single kind of animal. Tanniyn is a more general term, and it can be thought of as the original version of the word “dinosaur.” The word “dinosaur” was originally coined in 1841, more than three thousand years after the Bible first referred to “Tanniyn.”\n\n\nBehemoth has the following attributes according to Job 40:15-24\n\n\nIt “eats grass like an ox.” \nIt “moves his tail like a cedar.” (In Hebrew, this literally reads, “he lets hang his tail like a cedar.”) \nIts “bones are like beams of bronze,\nHis ribs like bars of iron.” \n“He is the first of the ways of God.” \n“He lies under the lotus trees,\nIn a covert of reeds and marsh.” \nSome bibles and study bibles will translate the word “behemoth” as “elephant” or “hippopotamus.” Others will put a note at the edge or bottom of the page, stating that behemoth was probably an elephant or a hippopotamus. Although an elephant or hippopotamus can eat grass (or lie in a covert of reeds and marsh), neither an elephant or a hippopotamus has a “tail like a cedar” (that is, a tail like a large, tapered tree trunk). In your kid’s dinosaur book you will find lots of animals that have “tails like a cedar.”\n\nWe would expect behemoth to be a large land animal whose bones are like beams of bronze and so forth, so whatever a behemoth is, it is large. A key phrase is “He is the first of the ways of God.” This phrase in the original Hebrew implied that behemoth was the biggest animal created. Although an elephant or a hippopotamus are big, they are less than one-tenth the size of a Brachiosaurus, the largest (complete) dinosaur ever discovered.[1] A Brachiosaurus could therefore easily be described as “the first of the ways of God.”\n\n\nLeviathan has the following attributes according to Job chapter 41, Psalm 104:25,26 and Isaiah 27:1. This is only a partial listing—just enough to make the point.\n\n\n“No one is so fierce that he would dare stir him up.” \n“Who can open the doors of his face, with his terrible teeth all around?” \n“His rows of scales are his pride, shut up tightly as with a seal; one is so near another that no air can come between them; they are joined one to another, they stick together and cannot be parted.” \n“His sneezings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. Out of his mouth go burning lights; sparks of fire shoot out. Smoke goes out of his nostrils, as from a boiling pot and burning rushes. His breath kindles coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth.” \n“Though the sword reaches him, it cannot avail; nor does spear, dart, or javelin. He regards iron as straw, and bronze as rotten wood. The arrow cannot make him flee; slingstones become like stubble to him. Darts are regarded as straw; he laughs at the threat of javelins.” \n“On earth there is nothing like him, which is

No, Noah and his family were only one race and stayed that way until today.  the flood was locale and killed all except Noah and his family.  Other races were all around and alive before and after the flood.  there is Asia kingdoms that date their kings back before the flood and all though it.\nif you look up the word "world" in a Strong's you'll find that it means "land", "nation", or "country".  this tells us that God put Adam and Eve on the earth and also other "Adam and Eve's" of other races.

chicken, read your Bible or borrow one.  God created ALL the animals and Adam named them.

yes, if you believe in the story of the great flood and that god created all the beasts in one day, you would have to say that every species alive today was on the ark, unless you believe in both the tale of noah and evolution (and would say that species evolved after the flood).

There are hundreds if not thousands of insects per each human so if you count them, fish, etc.  You have thousands to one.  If you want to count bacteria as animals then it is billions to one.

I appreciate that you are asking this question to make people think... but it's my opinion that it is a hopeless cause.  People that believe in the Noah's Ark story are already ignoring vast amounts of common sense.\n\nHow could anyone build a boat big enough to house all the species that we know exists and be sea-worthy?  How did certain animals end up on some continents, but not others?  How did animals migrate to Australia?  Where did they get their food on the ark?  How did all the vegetation survive the drowning?  The questions go on and on, and there are few (if any) reasonable answers to explain them.\n\nGood luck in your efforts to make people use a little common-sense.

You ask such a trivial question. Of course there were woodpeckers on the ark. Otherwise we would not have them today or if they had died out after the flood, like dinosaurs, or any phisical evidence that they had exsisted. Your second question is the most trivial. Look at the big picture. Think of all the animals on the ark. God must have given him instrutions on where he should keep each of the thousands of animals on the ark. there are some things a person should have faith in and in the big scheme of things not worry about. God is an orderly God and controls things to the smallest detail.

1) seven - if all of the sheep have died, *except* seven of them, then logically seven of them have lived.  The remaining twelve have died.\n\n2) Bobby - If three of the children are named, and neither of the names are 'Bobby', then it stands to reason that "Bobby" is the fourth.  (Aside from being given the answer using the possessive form of his name.)\n\n3) himself - The man is an only child, and he is looking at himself in the photograph, since he is his father's son.\n\n4) glass - Greenhouses are made of "green" glass, not wood, since the wood would not let the light in for the plants.\n\n5) two - if you "take" two of the apples, then you only have two in your possession.  The rest are for anyone else to take.\n\n6) He's dead - if the man has a 'widow', then it means he is dead.  It stands to reason that there are most likely no laws on the books that allow for a living person to marry a corpse.\n\n7) Noah took them, not Moses - The ark used to carry two of each animal was built by Noah according to the old testament.  The story of Moses came later and he didn't gather animals in groups of two.\n\n8) one - if you disregard that some people believe in re-incarnation, any man, not just the average man, has only one day that he is physically born, but he celebrates that day each year for the rest of his life.

Noah\n\nNoah or Noach (Hebrew: נוֹחַ or נֹחַ, Standard Nóaḥ Tiberian Nōªḥ; Arabic: نوح, Nūḥ; "Rest") was the tenth and last of the antediluvian Patriarchs, best known for the Deluge which came in his time. His story is contained in the Hebrew Bible's book of Genesis, chapters 5-9.\n\nThe predecessor of the zoological garden is the menagerie that has a long history from the Middle Ages to modern times. The oldest existing zoo, the Vienna Zoo in Austria, evolved from such an aristocratic menagerie founded in 1752 by the Habsburg monarchy.\n\nThe first zoo founded primarily for scientific and educational reasons was the Ménagerie du Jardin des Plantes in Paris (1794). The founders and members of the Zoological Society of London adopted the idea of the early Paris zoo when they established London Zoo in 1828.\n\nThe success of London Zoo set off a wave of further zoo establishments across the world. The first zoological garden established in Australia was Melbourne Zoo in 1860. In the same year the first zoo of the United States opened to the public in New York City (Central Park Zoo), although earlier, in 1859, the Philadelphia Zoological Society had made an effort to establish a zoological park, but delayed due to the American Civil War.\n\nWhen ecology emerged as a matter of public interest through the 1970s, a few zoos began to consider making conservation their central role, with Gerald Durrell of the Jersey Zoo, George Rabb of Brookfield Zoo, and William Conway of the Bronx Zoo (Wildlife Conservation Society) leading the discussion. Since then, zoo professionals became increasingly aware of the need to engage themselves in conservation programmes and the American Zoo Association soon asserted that conservation had become its highest priority.

Revelation 14:3 says that there are 144,000 that have been bought from the earth.\n\nAdditional Details:\n\nThe little flock are the annointed ones who will rule as kings and priests over the earth; there are 144,000 of these as seen above. Compare Revelation 5:9, 10.\n\nThese are also the ones who stick with Jesus through thick and thin: “However, you are the ones that have stuck with me in my trials; and I make a covenant with you, just as my Father has made a covenant with me, for a kingdom”—Luke 22:28, 29.\n\nThey are to rule over the meek ones who inherit the earth as explained in Matthew 5:5 - "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." See also Psalm 37:9-11, 29; Proverbs 2:21, 22.\nI think most people do not believe these last three passages.

is this what you asking  "Noah dies 2006 years after Adam, and the 2060 is that how many years before Christ? and now we are 2006 from Christ. or to simplify things as of this year it been 2006 years since was Christ born.\n\n\nBce insted of bc can also be used and all you have to do is add up the birth dates of the begets starting with Adam and ending noah.

The story of Noah's ark is only a retelling of a much older Mesopotamian flood account. However, the Mesopotamian's didn't have the god and punishment of sin in their story. It was added for the drama and fear that is seen throughout the bible.\n\nHow big would it have been? Well the bible tells you! A cubit is about a foot and a half long. Do the math. And how did Noah get 2 of each species from all the continents from all over the world?\n\nModern day shipbuilders don't believe the story. He had tools made of stone! It is simply not possible. (just watched a National geographic show on Noah's ark)Why should we? \n\nGrowing number of scientists who believe? Where? Can you give your source of info? Oh do you mean they believe in a flood or in the story of Noah?\n\nThere is much to doubt not only about Noah, but about the entire book.

Look at Genesis again.\n\nGod created this planet and its species, including homo sapiens, over 5 time periods. All “creatures” were created “AFTER ITS KIND” and able to “multiply” (procreate). \n\nThen in the sixth time period Adam was created “AFTER OUR IMAGE”! Adam was created BY HIMSELF! He was given “God’s spirit”. Gen. 2:7-9, 16&17. HE was created to live indefinitely within his special environment, the Garden of Eden. That’s why it was fatal for him to eat from the “tree of knowledge of good and evil”. Gen. 2:17. \n\nEve was an afterthought so Adam would not be all by himself. Gen. 2:21,22\n\nMeant to live indefinitely Adam and Eve did NOT NEED to procreate! They had no sense or ambition of sexuality. Gen. 2:25. They were not ashamed – innocent.\n\nGod gave them the power of choice, to obey his instructions or not.\n\nAfter eating the forbidden fruit – also known as the “original sin” - they were sexually “activated” (Gen. 3:7-11 & 16) (they were ashamed!)  and God had to change His plans for them. So Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden in order to KEEP THEM AWAY from the “tree of life” which could have sustained their life (and that of now possible offsprings) indefinitely - Gen. 3:22-24. \n\nThey were now condemned to live their life in the outside world and procreate like the “creatures” (Neanderthals & Co.) created before them. (Gen. 3:16) They now also were destined to die like them.\n\nHowever, they (the dscendents of Adam) lived much longer due to their speciel origin and the climate before the flood. The oldest ever, Methusalah, died in (the year of) the flood! Then the livespan decreased sharply.

Hello The agitator.. :)\n\nI pray you had a Blessed Thanksgiving Day.. :)\n\n \nCould Noah's Ark really hold all the animals that were supposed to be preserved from Flood?\n\nA growing number of scientists believe that geological evidence indicates our world has undergone a catastrophic flood. This is causing them to question whether or not the biblical account of Noah's ark could be true. Many people are rereading the Biblical description of the Ark to ascertain the feasibility of such a vessel to fulfill its designated purpose in light of present day knowledge of both zoology and our present day knowledge of shipbuilding.\n \nSize comparison between average size one-story home and Noah's Ark. Illustration from The World that Perished.How big was Noah's Ark?\n"And God said unto Noah… Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt though make in the ark, and thou shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of… the length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. A window shalt thou make in the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side therof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it." (Gen. 6:14-16)\n \nA cubit is the distance between an adult's elbow and tip of the finger, no less than 18-inches [45.72 centimeters]. (Scene from The World that Perished.)Most Hebrew scholars believe the cubit to have been no less than 18 inches long [45.72 centimeters]. This means that the ark would have been at least 450 feet long [137.16 meters], 75 feet wide [22.86 meters] and 45 feet high [13.716000000000001 meters]. Noah's Ark was said to have been the largest sea-going vessel ever built until the late nineteenth century when giant metal ships were first constructed. Its length to width ratio of six to one provided excellent stability on the high seas. In fact, modern shipbuilders say it would have been almost impossible to turn over. In every way, it was admirably suited for riding out the tremendous storms in the year of the flood.\n\nThese dimensions are especially interesting when compared to those given in the mythical, Babylonian account of the Ark. Here the ark is described as a perfect cube, extending 120 cubits in all directions and with nine decks. Such a vessel would spin slowly round and round in the water and from the standpoint of stability, would be a disaster.\n\nWas the ark big enough to hold the number of animals required?\nThe total available floor space on the ark would have been over 100,000 square feet, which would be more floor space than in 20 standard-sized basketball courts.\n \nAssuming an 18-inch cubit [45.72 centimeters], Noah's Ark would have had a cubic volume equal to 569 modern railroad stock cars.The total cubic volume would have been 1,518,000 cubic feet [462,686.4 cubic meters] --that would be equal to the capacity of 569 modern railroad stock cars.\n\nNow comes the question, how many land dwelling air breathing animals would have had to be taken aboard the ark to survive the flood?\n\nAccording to Ernest Mayr, America's leading taxonomist, there are over 1 million species of animals in the world.\n \nGod only provided the Ark for the protection of humans and land-dwelling, air-breathing creatures. A huge number of animals would not need to be taken aboard the Ark because they are water dwellers. Representatives would be expected to survive the catastrophe. With God's protection against extinction during the Deluge, survival would have been assured. (Scene from The World that Perished, a Christian motion picture about the Flood)However, the vast majority of these are capable of surviving in water and would not need to be brought aboard the ark. Noah need make no provision for the 21,000 species of fish or the 1,700 tunicates (marine chordates like sea squirts) found th

BEcause when noah was gathering up the animals the unicorns ignored him and kept on playing. So they were destroyed with all of the other evil doers. At least thats the story I heard.

it has to do with faith. You believe in God and he will provide. In the bible Jesus multiplied the bread and fish and fed all the people that went to hear him. So, why not believe that God could have helped Noah, and allow him to get all the animals in the boat. Don´t you think? It is a matter of faith, he(Noah) believed that he could fit all the animals in the boat because God ask him to and he trusted God.
