apparently researchers think it is an anamoly based upon radar imaging and such. They also note it appaers unnatural and like a boat of biblical proportions.
 
As much as I’d like Noah’s Ark to be found, this doesn’t look like it to me. It’s a rock outcropping, nothing more. My question is, why is a science website that is usually so skeptical of anything smacking of religion being so obliging to this man’s ideas? Do they think people of faith are gullible and need to believe so badly that they will accept that this is the Ark?

After all, we don’t believe in Noah and the Ark because we expect to find a ship on the mountainside. Whether it survived all these centuries or not has very little to do with the veracity of the biblical story. We believe because God inspired the author of the story to pass it down to us, not because we have to believe that a huge wooden vessel could survive being ground down a mountain glazier without coming apart.
 
appearances can be decieving. Like I said they have used radar imaging to show that this is indeed an anomaly. Whether it is a boat or something else is lacking, but hey if it is really turned out to be Noahs ark how cool would that be?

my guess is that they expect an expedition to go out and conclude that this is not Noahs Ark and that it would be another “nail in the coffin” so to speak. Seriously, some of these post modern science web sites think science has put the nail in the coffin of religion. Its quite sad.The obviously have an agenda and it ticks me off sometimes.

That was my thought, too. This man goes (or a team of “experts”) and finds what it obviously is–a natural rock outcropping. Then they crow to the world that they’ve “proven” Noah’s Ark never existed. And they accuse us of employing self-fulling prophecy! :rolleyes:
 
I don’t know about Noah’s Ark in Turkey.

But I do know somthing about 2 Turkeys in Noah’s Ark 😃

“OUR MEASUREMENT OF NOAH’S ARK”
Code: 
         The actions of which I write took place about 1954 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base,           near Dayton, Ohio. We were a small Field Office of what is now the Topographic Engineering           Center, in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. We were Corps of Engineers civilians, and our landlord           was Chief of Air Force's Reconnaissance Laboratory; we supplied the technical liaison           between the two Services in aerial photomapping research and development in both peacetime           and rapid combat mapping systems. I was there from 1948 to 1972, and was Chief of Field           Office at its demise when the Defense Mapping Agency was formed. So much for our           introduction into the relatively alien environment of an Air Force Base whose population           numbered about 27,000 people at the time!

Hello Anonymous,

I have heard this story about thirty years ago. Didn’t the story first come out in the nineteen seventies? How long does it take to put an expedition together?

I am with those who see a picture of a rock outcropping.
 
The prolem is the politics of Turkey. They have not allowed anyone to enter the area from years.
 


this picture is of the same anomalyy apparently when the ice melted?

live science is generally anti faith I was suprised to see such a positive article!

I know alot of people say this is oldnews but apparently there is some new info. Check it out. what are your thoughts?

The global flood is a myth. There was a regional flood which would have seemed global to the inhabitants of the middle east at the time. A regional flood would have certainly never crested at this altitude. It’s not the arc…sorry.

There are some archaelologists today who are finding village ruins far underwater in the Black Sea. There is a hypothesis that the Black Sea was not connected to the Mediterranean in Neolithic times and that the “bowl” which became the current Black Sea was densely populated, fruitful, and sheltered from the cold. An earthquake shattered the Bosporus and allowed the waters of the Mediterranean to flow into the valley. This, in turn, caused a massive exodus of people across the ancient near east. The memory of this cataclysmic flood is the root of Noah’s flood.

And for those of you who may not be aware, get a copy of the Epic of Gilgamesh and read and compare the story with Noah.
 
LEt’s say it is a large boat how would you know that it is indeed Noah’s Ark and not say Jeb’s Ship?
I don’t think you can prove that is is Noah’s Ark.
You can just throw out a possiblity.
THis is not new as Biblical archaelogist have gone to other mountians and found pieces of wood and the carbon dating disproved any notione of an ancient ark.
