Who'd have thunk it? Global warming leads to Ark discovery.
I have been reading about this for 15 years. This is silly... just hike your *ss up there and find out. I know that the Turks say the area is off limits, but I am sure that there are plenty of adventurers who would go anyway if there was any reason to think that Noah's Ark is actually there.
I swear these we are about to find Noah's ark story come out everyyear.I thought the same think too its wood for goodness sake. It aint the other ark for goodness sakes. Of course that in that big warehouse
I personally am not offended by double posts, but just for those that want to see them, there's some of the photos here:
(Looks like a stretch to me.)

There is another thread.
People have been discussin this for years. It's hardly new, and highly unlikely. But I'd be glad to be proven wrong on this one.
This has already been posted, but again:

Of course, looking at things with a religious agenda can cause a person to look at facts with an interesting perspective:

Does it show up on "Google Earth"?
Not sure if there's anything new here for Gods & Glyphs, but ping FWIW.
What's that in cubits?
Petrified wood?
Nothing gets buried under a glacier and then comes out the same way it went in. All you have to do is read some stories about mountaineering to know this. Here's a good one:
From the article:
"It's kind of like a bread mixer," Jordan observed as we picked our way around thin crevasses and frigid pools of Windex-blue meltwater. "The worst of the violence is the avalanches, but there are also the years of tearing and crushing in the glaciers. The movement churns them up in summer, back down in winter. Appendages get torn off in the disgorging process. When they surface, they're almost all headless, because that's the weakest link in the body. Mostly you find legs—very few arms."
If Noah's ark was ever inside glacial ice, it is gone. Period.
"You can park a Volkswagen in your front yard, and within 2 years it will collapse into dust. I could never understand why people would think a wooden object would last thousands of years-- but... interesting nonetheless"
there's 2 factors that make it plausible. 1 being that there's less oxygen at that altitude, and 2 the cold, both would help keep the decaying bacteria at bay.
This has been going on for decades.
You can be sure somebody is trying to "fundraise" over this nonsense.
Well I have had cars sitting out back for 10 years and they look just like they did 10 years ago, but that is Arizona dry atmosphere....
Here is another link I saw along time ago and seems like it may be a different location in Turkey...

I read about this in a book on Pyramidology! (you know the engraver of the $1.00 bill put the Pyramid on the back of the bill with the All Seeing Eye at the pinnacle. He was an advocate of Pyramidology)
The All Seeing Eye knows where the Ark/Canoe is.
Do You?
There was a movie over 30 years ago that claimed to have found Noah's Ark and showed pictures of it. What ever became of that claim?
I'm still trying to get the creationists to explain to me how the koala walked all the way back to Australia without any eyucalyptus leaves, or how the sloth, which lives its entire life in a tree swam home.
Or any rational explanation about the ark, other than the cop out "it was a miracle"
