Really, when?

LOL, nicely edited - another attempt to worm out of a verbal bashing?
Firstly, Ant was talking to FFF in his first part - not everything is about you.
Secondly, the rest was sarcasm, Ant is in fact a christian like you.
And it took 3 hours and me to point it out before you finally understood.
So you've embarrassed yourself. Again.
Look, I got told. Muchly.
Ouch!

1. As far as your question, Light, Dr. Willmington also says that no animal would be over the size of a sheep (overall average) boarded the ark.
Quote: "One of America's leading systematic taxonomists lists the following numbers for animal species according to the best estimates of modern taxonomy:
Mammals, 3,500
Birds, 8,600
Reptiles and amphibians, 5,500
Worms, 25,500" (page 29, question 34 of the subjest "Questions and answers about Genesis 1-11")
2. How did Noah gather them? He didn't. God did.
3. How did he feed and keep the animals? Possibility of hibernation. I know, not all animals have that distinct ability. But God could have made them that way for the period of time they were on ther ark.
4. How long were they on the ark? Around a year, not 40 days and nights. It RAINED 40 days/nights. It took the flood waters nearly a year to subside.
5. Were there dinosaurs on the ark? If they were here before the flood (and they were) then at least a pair of them had to be on the ark.
6. Someone had mentioned about fish on the ark. Why would there be a need? They had plenty of flesh to eat from all the drowned, dead bodies that were outside of the ark.
7. Repopulation: I have to use the Bible at this one point. The geneology of Noah's sons following the flood story shows how the lines increased. Inbreeding? To an extent. But the further down the line, the less inbreeding we see. On top of that, look back to Adam and Eve. They only had two living sons, Cain and Seth, who took wives (had to be sisters). The earth was populated by two, so it's quite possible to repopulate with eight.
That's the sound of Ant's post going right over Forest Fans head!
