Noah's Catholic Ark

There are two conflicting versions of Noah's Ark story. In Genesis, chapter 7 verse 2, it says save ( seven animals) of every kind. In chapter 6 verse19, it says save ( two animals ) of every sort. In each, duration of the flood is also different. Chapter 7 says 150 days - five months; chapter 8 says ten months before the mountain tops were seen. There is no explanation as to where the water proceeded after the flood inundated the whole earth. How did Noah and his wife and three sons and their wives ( only 8 people ) managed to build the Ark? There were yet no carpentry tools invented: hammer, nail, circular saw, ruler, etc. According to biblical scholars, the Ark measured 450 feet by 78 feet by 43 feet. The size of a US aircraft carrier as such constructed by 1,000 engineers and workers with materials and navigational instruments purchased from some 100 different US manufacturers. Where did Noah catch and how did he transport to load on board two or seven kinds of every living creature? Did he go to Australia for kangaroos? To Borneo for orangutans? To Indonesia for komodo dragons? To China for pandas? To Africa for rhinoceros? To the Amazon River for anaconda giant snakes? To antartica for penguin? To the arctic for polar bears? How did Noah catch the ancestors of our politicians in government today - the crocodiles? And as the creationists believe that men and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time, how many species of dinosaurs were dragged on board the Ark: Brontosaurus, tyrannosaurus rex, apatosaurus, allosaurus, parasaurolophus, protoceratops, triceratops, velociraptors, and hundreds more? Those giant carnivorous and/or herbivorous creatures weighed as much as 20 to 40 tons each and stood 50 to 100 feet tall. According to scientific estimates, to save the living creatures Noah had to capture and bring on board at least 25,000 species of birds, 15, 000 species of mammals, 6,000 species of reptiles, 2,500 species of amphibians, and more than a million species of insects. The other problem too was how to feed and water them, and more problematical - how to accommodate animals that can survive living only in the desert heat, or can survive living only in freezing temperature, or can live only in the rain forest. Too bad too that Noah never knew about the deadly mosquito – the carriers of deadly diseases not worth saving in the Ark. Though he bothered saving the crocodiles and the turtles that were already amphibious anyway. And also, since nothing is impossible with God there was no Need for Noah to save the living creatures of the sea, rivers, and lakes. God drowned them all to death! Except of course the crocodiles. They survived and evolved to be the corrupt congressmen and senators of the Philippine government. There was also the manure factor - how to clean out their stalls and of course the biggest headache of all - how to keep the hungry carnivores from killing and eating each other. Something that should tell us that the Noah flood story is a lot of biblical hokum, if not mythological bankum. In the New Testament, God's command to people was: "Love thy neighbor." In the Old Testament, however, God's command to Noah was: "To hell with thy neighbors. Save instead the animals." Among them was the devil in the shape of a talking serpent -"the more subtile than any beast of the field that the Lord had made." Poch Suzara
