I was surprised to find very few places where the math of Noah's flood was discussed, so I made this video to illustrate the scale of what the bible describes. Seeing it calculated out makes the myth seem a lot more fantastical and less feasible. After researching this video, it became clear to me that the people who wrote this myth originally did not understand how outlandish their claims were at the time, because they didn't know how big the planet was, or how tall the highest mountain was, or how many species there are, or what that much rain looks like. Once you do the equations, you can see that this is all made up. For the ignorant desert tribes during the time of Gilgamesh, there was no danger that anyone would call the authors out, but the people of modern times have no excuse for blindly accepting it.

  • lol do he knew his talking about the first earth age

  • @wulfone ''Evolution claims they came from a rock that wad rained on billions of yrs ago'' Strawman Argument.

    Darwin wrote, "Origin of Species'' Not the 'Origin of everything'.

    Stop getting your science from Hovind.

  • Add in the math behind the amount of freshwater needed to keep all of these animals alive, and the storage space of said water. I know humans must have water every three days. So factor in what is necessary for survival only. Food as well.

  • Nobody ever asks why an all powerful being needed Noah to do any of this at all? Couldnt he wipe everybody out by himself and remake all the animals? I guess the writer of this STORY didnt consider that.

  • @wulfone lol really? Then why did he need Noah at all?

  • @wulfone kinds is not doable either. There would be even less genetic variety for any to survive for long.

  • Thank you. Im claiming wolves have a doglike common ancester. Evolution claims they came from a rock that wad rained on billions of yrs ago

  • @wulfone Well I think you mean "genus". The species is called Canis lupus, the different races of dogs are called "subspecies". But if Noah only took one pair of each genus of animals he would have had to decide wether to take dogs, wolves, coyotes or jackals. It would however explain why all other human species have died out.

  • Kind of animals. Dogs have many species but all can come from 2 dogs. Many species of cats come from the cat family... Noah brought young elephants not full grown. This is common sense stuff.

  • @wulfone Cite physical evidence.
