That, or Genesis may simply be a summary of real history and wasn’t meant to be taken literal.
Just throwing that out as a possibility.

I saw a presentation on that a while back - seemed pretty convincing.
Not that it really matters anyway - "we walk be faith and not by sight".

Figure 2. The samples of white pellets, rope and wood on display at the press conference in Hong Kong on April 25, 2010, which the discovery team claimed came from the wooden remains on Mt. Ararat purported to be the Ark. (i.e., they're FAKES - fishtank's comment).

So.... the "grossly inflated" dates are due to scientific ignorance of C-14 levels, and the current tests range from "recent" to 6,891±4,647 years (not sure where "recent" leaves off, compared to 6891-4647 years ago), but we're "logically follow the soundest scientific inference" to say that these are NOT remains of the Ark.
Got it.

That’s a lot of wood to carry up that mountain...

If it can't be taken literally then it's not a summary of REAL history. I would note that Jesus took Genesis literally.

To: fishtank
then samples of that wood would be expected to yield C-14 dates of between 20,000 years and 50,000 years, consistent with the C-14 dates of pre-Flood wood found fossilized in the geologic record of the Flood
nice straw man LOL
6,891±4,647 years ago seems more in line with when I would of expected the arc to have existed.

I think this story has already been debunked as a hoax, hasn’t it?

Sounds like a statement crafted by a government committee. But with a seemingly continuous flow of these expeditions bringing back wood fragments, it should make one wonder how that wood got up there — in the neighborhood of 15,000 ft elevations, above the tree line and above the snow line. Just sayin’.

Thanks for this post! I have always been fascinated by “ark sightings”.
To: fishtank
I have to wonder if these answers in genesis guys are really based in KY...I mean, who schedules or participates on a conference call during modern gun deer season? This is KY after all. Get your priorities right!
