		<description><![CDATA[one more thing - to get back on the issue of the ark of Noah. DR. Cargill and Dr. Randall Price, i really don&#039;t know of you except of what i&#039;ve been reading on the blogs since the latest Noah&#039;s ark discovery. It sounds like both of these people are passionate about what you do and have been really fascinated about finding and proving real biblical finds, because like you say, false ones can cause harm to the world&#039;s perception of believers in God etc. i get that. im no expert - these are just personal observations.

 i just wanted to say that even if this is all a hoax - some of the facts that have led people to believe that it is a hoax dont themselves prove it is a hoax. for instance. they said there were cobwebs in the inside the ark when they found it and one dr. said that this disproves that it&#039;s real because there are cobwebs in it at 13,000 feet.  there could have been cobwebs when the ark landed - surely there were spiders in that thing when it landed - and cobwebs can survive indefinately. also on mt everest, they found spiders at 22,000 feet. now surely in the summer months at 13000 feet spiders could have easily gotten in there and made webs. ok?

my other point is that they said that they found the original beams at the black sea and transported them up to 13,000 feet? what ???- think about that. not possible. the trucks couldnt have gotten half that high and they hauled those beams all the way up to 13000 feet ???- possible, not likely in the extreeme.  helicopters maybe - but there is no record of beams being transported up there via helicopter that i could find. - im not saying that this still isnt some elaborate hoax - im just saying that those particular facts dont hold up.

This could be a hoax or it might not - there isn&#039;t any first hand proof either way, for it or against it. no proof, just hearsay and 2nd and 3rd party reports etc. i dont know on this - but peoples motives for saying this is a hoax or isnt - the reasons are many, selfish, ego, money, spiritual bias, political etc - not for me to say for sure, im just talking about a few facts.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First off, it&#039;s hard to make any point for the true existence of the ark or anything about God for that matter on this blog. Everyone here is stuck inside a box that our laws of physics and math can explain what God did. Im not saying this current ark &quot;discovery isn&#039;t a hoax, thats not my point.

Our understanding of the universe and what God did, is in my opinion a joke. God is beyond all math and laws that we use to decipher the universe and to try to use to prove the bible and the things Yahweh did. Why does no one see this? It&#039;s a matter of believers and non believers. Those who believe seek God&#039;s knowledge and are shown beyond the shadow of a doubt that these things are real. and non believers laugh at this because they see this as an out and we, Christians, dont need to explain and dont need science and this is the Christian way of getting out of answering the question and non believers see this as a cop out. because their answers are all based on faith and they don&#039;t need to answer beyond that.  Precisely., we dont. because people who are pulled towards God and seek Jesus Christ are shown the answers that science and man&#039;s physical laws can&#039;t explain. 

I don&#039;t think christians really care anymore. if you don&#039;t believe by now - us throwing pearls in front of pigs isn&#039;t goint to solve anything. hear me out here folks, hear me out. When God was in town 2000 or so years ago - they accused Jesus of sedition, sorcery etc. - they didnt believe him then and there are millions who don&#039;t believe him now. if scientists want to say that the ark didn&#039;t exist in the first place, they could scientifically explain it away, by saying well &quot;if the whole earth were covered in water, the humidity in the air would be so thick that we couldn&#039;t breathe&quot; - ive heard scientists say that before on the history channel.  or &quot; in 40 days there is no way that that much water could have fallen to cover everything up&quot; - physically impossible - according to man&#039;s puny infinitesimal laws they are impossible. but they arent. God made it ok and before a flash of light could travel an inch, it was so. again God&#039;s miracles are what he does. we dont know anything! but to those who believe - they are shown. but to those who dont believe they are going to be deceived by the forces that keep perpetuating their beliefs and they are going to only see things that back up their own way of seeing. and you might say im doing that to but im not - because i believe in God. That is the difference. It&#039;s like if someone who sees an apparition of an angel or Jesus - you can&#039;t make a non believer believe that- they don&#039;t care - they don&#039;t want to know. - there are forces that keep them where they are. yes evil forces - they were thrown down here with a third of the angels with satan and they are bound to the earth and God allows them to exist. They have a job - and their job is to deceive corrupt destroy etc. that&#039;s their job. they are here because we have free will and we can choose either road.  sounds like a fairy tale. guess again. demons are everywhere - so are angels. demons have been here for thousands of years and they are smarter than all of us put together. that is where faith comes in. starts as a series of coincidences after prayer for those who are truly seeking Jesus Christ. Then everything becomes so clear. So many coincidences, one after the other after the other after the other. Why God did it this way - i cant question it - but thats how he did it.  wake up folks just like a child- science wont explain jack. i know what people are thinking and i dont care - call me a sheep - but in reality most of the world are cattle being lead into a slaughter. you are being tricked in so many ways - that if you just came back to Christ fully -me included- i&#039;m just a sinner like anyone else., you would all see. i need a miracle everyday man and its weird how God shows them to you, so many times that after awhile - you believe. people want steven spielberg special effects to believe and some get those, but for most those who seek God are shown so many miracles and awesome things in other ways that you feel sorry for non believers.  laugh, make fun of me - i dont care - ive heard it all - ive got friends with wings covered in light and they work for God, and they are beautiful. now wanna talk about the Holy Spirit?]]></description>
