I find polls interesting. They certainly prove useless in determining truth. Pilot took a poll to determine the fate of Jesus. The poll was unanimous; "Crucify Him." Pilot new before he even took the poll that Jesus was innocent, yet chose to go with the poll anyway. If course we know that it was God's purpose that Jesus be crucified for our sins. Interesting how he used a poll as part of his plan.

i want to reply with a different concept. you may understand it better. there are certain things even in our own lifetime that will define. first, the dino's were much larger than the human counterparts, also the animals may have been babies. dino's, because of the size found in fossils is really an indication to me that because of higher oxygen content in the dino's, they stay afloat a lot longer than the other dead animals, humans, bugs. because they were smaller, they sank sooner.sinking to the bottom of silt and mud. when was the last time archaologists found the complete fossil remains of the smaller animals? i would think that you would have to dig a lot deeper for those. also consider the water pressure applied at greater depths.the remaining sediment which moved around the planet for 150 days. you got some serious digging for them bones. and about the ark! water was deep. water also helps in petrification. the bible says that the ark landed in the mountains of ararat, not mount ararat. this mountain in iran is part of that range. dino's are probably here with us in smaller forms. after all adam was 930 years old. and no lizard lives that long anymore. the animals came under the curse of sin and death just like us. the animals die and know not why. adam was alive when all his children were alive except noah. spark

This is the most amazing evidence I've seen to date of what could actually be the ark. What encourages me most is the fact that the man was using the Bible in verification of the ark location, not just the name of a mountain in Turkey today. The Word of God is always true and this petrified wood with the sea fossils surrounding it is the best physical evidence to date of Noah's ark.
We should not be surprised or amazed to find evidence supporting Scripture because it is all true. It sure is exciting to view these pics and video.
Jesus performed signs and wonders to help us weak souls take faith in Him. I'm sure glad about that. Finding the Ark will help some folks, too. We should all be encouraged by such things.

I feel really sorry for you)-:
Honestly and truly.
I think you might try reading the book....
"The Case for a Creator" author, Lee Strobel
I have read it, this book gives SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THAT POINTS TOWARDS GOD. Once you read this book I think you might start re- evaluating your heart.
I hope this will help you out.

Only 10% of the people who took the poll so far believe that God told the truth when He inspired Moses to write the account of Noah's ark. If God lied about that, what else in the Bible did God lie about???? If He lied, then He is NOT God and NOTHING in the Bible can be trusted to be true. I choose to believe God who said that He is not a man that He should lie (Numbers 23:19). It's time to believe God who is perfect and not fallible man's ideas concerning this issue. For more info google Answers in Genesis.

I never offered scientists as determiners of truth. You did! I'll stick with the Bible. (Oh by the way, it was scientists that convinced "the church" that the earth was the center of the universe. The church unfortunatley, bought the lie.)

Of course there has NEVER been a Christian that fabricated ANYTHING in the history of religion. Except for:
"The world is the center of the universe. The universe revolves around the earth." Taught as word by the Church. Galileo looked through his new invention - the telescope - and saw that the Church was wrong. He was put under house arrest for the remainder of his life for teaching against the Church - for teaching truth.
Witch hunts. Test: Dunk them. If they sink they're innocent. Of course they die when they sink. But if they float - WITCH! Burn them!
Crusades - killing in the name of God. How far against Jesus Christ was that?
And many other outrageous ideas and fabrications about both the physical and spiritual world by Christians.
Does that disprove Christianity? NO! We can easily pick out scientists OR Christians who were proven to be wrong about their teachings. What does picking and choosing from either lot prove? Nothing. Either party is capable of wrong thinking. (I do not believe man evolved from nothing. We were created. But your offer of evidence that scientists are wrong is invalid.)

It's a great find if it's the ark. Otherwise, it's another piece of rock. An interesting piece, but still just a piece of rock.

You mean scientists like the Korean Dr Hwang who fabricated his cloning results, or the scientists that perpetuted the Piltdown and Nebraska man fraud and many other evolutionists that suppose and speculate with no evidence whatsoever who fabricate drawings as to how we evolved and pass them off as fact. No thanks!

Matthew 5:9... thank you.
You are 100% correct... it is a circumlocution I have adopted to show reverence to G-d. Scripture speaks of false "gods" (lower-case "g"). Not a problem there because that is not in reference to the one, true G-d.
To: Age 72, CA
The 3rd commandment tells us not to make common use of His Name. He is holy and His Name is holy and holy ones praise Him every day, forever, for He is G-d, the great and holy King. As such, I attempt to honor Him in such ways that are within my capacity.
I also hate when I see "Xmas". It is "CHRISTmas"... call it what it is! :)

I'm not sure if your questions were related to my post or not. "Why are you afraid to know?" I'm not afraid to know. My post was meant more to share some introspection I had after reading the article and to offer words of exhortation to NOT wait for some major discovery but to "choose this day whom you will serve".
Peace and blessings to all!

I absolutely believe the bible is true, and therefore I believe that the flood did accrue.
Weather this is the ark, I dont know, but by the tool marks on the exterior would indicate
that it has a great deal of age, But for our doubters weather or not the food existed, we
have to remember we live in a democracy, where we can argue our way to victory, but
the word of GOD is based on a Kingdom, and anyone who knows anything about a
kingdom they know the Kings word is incontestable, in others words , the kings word is
law, you cant argue your point, or get your own way, When we leave this life we will not
live in a democracy but a kingdom, and only Gods word will be law no contesting it, so
with this in mind anyone who says they dont believe, is basically saying GOD is a lair.

While this is all very exciting (think about it-those trees grew pre-flood! Noah's hands actually made those cuts!) it has the potential to do more harm than good. I pray that no Christian views this as validation for God or their faith. If you think you need a material object to do that, you need to evaluate your thinking. I wonder about the reasons God may have had for taking away Moses' body and the Ark of the Covenant. Will this become an object of worship? What about artifacts showing up as icons? I don't want to be a wet blanket-this is a wonderful find and I'd like to know more about it. But please, do not rely on this find to save the world.

Why should the negativism be left out of the article? Why are some Christians so intent on keeping everything happy and fluffy. The only reason it should have been kept out was not that it was negative (because it is also probably true) but because it was speculative. Still, I don't see the harm. The Bible if packed with negative comments about God's people made by God's own prophets, so get used to it.

Praise the LORD!
I just wanted to respond to a couple of general ideas that have been posted on this site. I am a new christian of only 6 months so my opinions may be a little off but this is what I have grown to know so far. First, I don't think faith is something that is or should be based off of blind belief. Faith to me is based off of something you KNOW to be true whether it is evident at the current time or not. I truly believe that as true christians, in order to have found your faith, you have seen or felt concrete evidence of GOD in your life or you would just be using GOD as a form of acceptance or intelligence. Secondly, I don't think that finding the works of GOD manifest from the past is ever a waste of time because it is exciting to me as a believer. True that non believers will probably not be changed by it, because if they wanted the word of GOD, they would have accepted it to have him in their life, noah's ark can't save lives, only brokeness leading to our LORD for completion. We have to need him to find him, and I don't see anyone truly needing noah's ark to help their life. But as a believer, it makes me so happy that they are walking in belief and truly searching for what is left of the events that our Father set in motion. It doesn't have to be die hard save the world all the time, can't we just be excited to see what our beautiful Father left behind and revel in his works a little while? It is awe - inspiring to me. I know when I see discoveries like this, I get giddy like a little girl and call my sister and we share the glory of our Father together as believers. Truly this would be only for us, a coffee table story for outsiders, but to us, it would be a gift to stir the joy in our hearts. Isn't that what he wants? For us to boast in his miraculous works?

No need to yell (caps on = yelling) in this blog. Beating people across their backs with your ranting will not bring them closer to your way of seeing things.
Also, I think this forum is supposed to be an objective discussion about the article. Cant we just stay on the subject?
Thanks.

I thought your article was interesting, and perhaps you might be right concerning the location of The Ark. I am a deeply committed Christian and a discovery of this magnitude would be incredible. It's just unfortunate that a really good photographer didn't seem to be among the provisions made for your trip.
Living in Salt Lake, it is unlikely that we would have opportunity for a speaker to come and provide us with first hand, eye witness accounts. Too Bad!
