Interesting article. I was stationed in Turkey back in the 70s when a research team wanted permission to look for the Arc on Mt. Arafat and the Turk government ran them off. The Turks have said it's there, but no one is seeing it.

Luke.17.26 Just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man.
Luke.17.27 They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
Heb.11.7 By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
1Pet.3.20 because they formerly did not obey, when Gods patience waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were brought safely through water.
2Pet.2.5 if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Why bother being a Christian if you don’t believe the flood of Noah because Jesus is a liar by implication.

What do you mean,
"... but no one is seeing it." ?
It's been seen, filmed, studied, and documented.
In my opinion, Jewish atheist Dr Irving Finkel created this "FAKE" tablet to make fun of the religion he despises.
From the article
The tablet that altered the story of Noah's Ark:
" The story of Noahs Ark has always captivated the minds of children. Many have walked animal miniatures two-by-two into toy boats, as they imagine the vessel that saved believers from 40 rainy days and nights of flood.
But it is a story that does not hold water with Dr Irving Finkel, the British Museum curator in charge of cuneiform inscriptions on tablets of clay from ancient Mesopotamia. Dr Finkel has decoded a 4,000-year-old terracotta-coloured tablet that purports to give the exact measurements of the Ark long before the biblical account was written.
This ark is circular, like a coracle boat, takes up half a football pitch and is enclosed in a length of rope that would reach from London to Edinburgh. It didnt have to go in any direction, it just had to float and survive the flood, he says pointing to the cuneiform marks, as if I was able to read the ancient language.
...Finkel, who describes himself as a Jewish atheist, says he does not believe the Ark existed, despite remains apparently being found at Mount Ararat in Turkey. He believes that the Judeans, taken to Babylon by King Nebuchadnezzar II, incorporated Babylonian mythology into the Torah, but gave the stories a new, moral dimension. ... "

Noah's Ark found in turkey ( 4:56 )
Uploaded on Apr 28, 2010
" The remains of Noah's Ark have been found 12,000ft up a Turkish mountain, it was claimed today.
A group of Chinese and Turkish evangelical explorers say carbon testing on remains found on Mount Ararat show they are 4,800 years old, around the time when the ark was said to be afloat.
But the group left themselves open to a critical backlash after they failed to reveal the location of their find or produce photographs of the exterior of the site.
The search for the physical remains of Noah's Ark has held a fascination for Christians, Jews and Muslims for hundreds of years. But despite various claims no scientific evidence has ever been found.
The team of 15 made the announcement of their find yesterday. They brought back from the site wooden remains and strands of rope which they believe was used for keeping animals.
Yeung Wing-cheung, a documentary filmmaker and member of the team from Hong Kong-based Noah's Ark Ministries International, said:'It's not 100 per cent that it is Noah's Ark but we think it is 99.9 per cent that this is it.'
He said the structure had several compartments, some with wooden beams, which were believed to house animals. However early indications are it was a kind of cypress wood whereas the Bible says it was made of gopher wood.
Members of the Chinese team appeared with Turkish officials at a joint press conference on the evangelicals website where the potential importance of the discovery was hailed.

I certainly believe it was a true event. Heck, I've read of people finding seashells and shark fossils on tops of mountains. Just about every ancient civilization of which we have their recorded histories had stories that matched that event. Hard to think it could have been all a myth or legend.
