This article says that proof has been found that Noah's Ark was circular. Although I would hesitate to make the same conclusion with the same amount of certainty, it is interesting to read about.Relic reveals Noah's ark was circularAlso, I did not know this about the plethora of flood accounts from non-biblical sources:
There are dozens of ancient tablets that have been found which describe the flood story but Finkel says this one is the first to describe the vessel's shape.
Nah, I believe the biblical description:
And this is how you will build it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, her width fifty cubits, her height thirty cubits.
Gen 6:15Plato has an account of a great flood (mythological) and I thought I read about one in Herodotus, but can't remember. The southern (I think) American Indians have one too.
The biblical description makes it pretty clear that it was rectangular doen't it? That is post-modernism though, they have probably just deconstructed scipture and are telling us what it really means and this relic gives them proof.
Yeah I hadn't thought about the conflict. Unless I missed it, I didn't read anything about the scholars trying to resolve it. They should have at least brought it up.
For those that get Bizarro in their newspaper: check the panel today (7-Jan-10) or wait about a month and check it on the Bizarro.com site (as they post a month behind)… it's spot on for this topic!Cheers,Wally
lol im sorry but this actually has to be a joke, and one thats not very good either. the article starts talking about “raiders of the lost ark” which had nothing to do with noahs ark in the first place the movie was about the search for the ark of the covenant
