The Ark story is scientifically implausible; there simply wouldn't be enough space on the boat to accommodate two of every living animal (including dinosaurs)

I'm not going to stake out much of a position here, but I will point out that I don't think ANYONE proposes that Noah took dinosaurs on the Ark.

I do. If Noah took two or more of each species while young, it makes a lot more sense. Genetic variation would explain the rest.

Wrong. Some Young-Earth-Creationist-Freepers insist that there were dinosaurs aboard Noah's Arc. If you want to argue with them, go ahead.

I believe Kent Hovind ("Dr. Dino") does.

All animals have natural predators. They'd all be extinct by the time the ark "landed" except.......Noah? And that my near friends was the end of it all!!

It's a STORY....Kinda like what moms gonna do if she catches you swearing again.

So, um, just for the sake of argument...how do you know that all the animals boarded as full grown adults? I'm thinking a month and a third (40 days/40 nights), gestation times....

Just trying to cause trouble. ; )
