Noah was only require to house two of every KIND dude. 2 snakes. Not 2 of what people randomly define as “species”.How big was that ark? This snake was long gone before the Garden of Eden.

The idiots still tried to inject some comment about “global warming” being something we are doing.

?????????????
Snakes don’t breath through their skins. They have lungs just like us, although some of them only have one LARGE elongated lung.

Hmmm.. is it my mistake, or do we sometimes find live snakes today...? Yes there are literal and figurative snakes alive today. But NOT of this species...
To: chuck_the_tv_out
Define “kind” as used in the context of Noah. You are a font of misinformation.

In the article, paleontologist Jason Head of the University of Toronto Missisauga noted “A snake’s size is related to how warm its environment is.”
Oh really??? Prove it professor. Put a snake in a hot enclosure and make it grow.

DId anyone else notice how the article mentioned that the earth was once significantly WARMER than it is now?
HOW COULD THAT BE?
Did they have cars spewing greenhouse gases?I noticed the same thing. I also notice on many web-sites that have pre-historic information also list the temperatures/climates and atmospheric make-up, often significantly different than today or even in recent history.
Most often the temps and humidity are stated to have been much higher and the CO2, as well as other greenhouse gasses, was considerably higher as well.
Gee, and all that plant and animal life was thriving then.

“Define “kind” as used in the context of Noah”
Not my job to do that. It’s the Bible that uses the term kind. The study of kinds is known as Baraminology.
To: NCDragon
I know I've had my doubters, but I've always contended that since the earth was inhabited by Giant Dinosaurs and their Giant Poop, that there were Giant Worms which ate the Giant Poop and took out the nutrients and left what we call "soil" or "dirt." Now with the discovery of the Giant Snake, my contention may be correct.
But is it Obama's Fault or Bush's?

If Noah took two of everything that is alive today, considering where he lived, where did he get a bear, moose, cougar, caribou, raccoon, just to name a few critters indigenous to the western hemisphere?

I thought you were defining “kind” as being a superspecies classification.
It would seem to me that “kind” is sort of a loose term.
While I believe in the Bible and Noah and the flood, it stretches logic to think that one boat no matter how big could POSSIBLY hold two of every “kind” of animal on earth.
It would seem to me that the Biblical flood was probably a great flood which was of local magnitude only and the “kinds” of creatures really taken onto it were domestic animals. But that is merely my interpretation.
