There's no exact date like 4000 b.c. but if you're going to trace it base on the generations of man then it will have an approximate figure.
...brod, if you trace an approximate figure by using existence of man, that's where you fail... only science can prove that. Bible does not trace existence of man but through the creation of man... and yet doesn't prove anything in the archinves basta lang they were created according to the bible. Mao nga there are BC and AD because of carbon dating.
Are you doubting the capacity or amount of water? how about the Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms to be combined and the water depot underneath.
You knw why there are still deserts, glaciers in northern hemispheres? If you think that 40 days and 40 nights of rain will flood the entire earth that's not enough. I would probably believe there was a great melt down rather than flooding the earth within 40 days/40 nights... did you ever know that in 1981 in vietnam it rained for 60 days straight? people were so scared that their means of livelihood will be washed out but they turned the rain into an ally for their crops. 40 days of noah's story in the bible was nothing compared to that. Yet, you're speaking in scientific terminolgies - thought you don't use other learning materials.
Don't you think turtles can't survive water, they (almost) can survive in land and water. There's no water animals on that ark. ants can found almost everywhere and no need to worry. Are you computing the speed of Turtle to reach at the ark? how about get a turtle nearby the ark.
This is scientific accounts brod. If noah noah knows scientific ways about how the ants, turtles can survive - it should be written in the book. If the purpose was to wipe out the entire living and non-living beings, why there are other animals away thousands of miles from noah that existed?
Low tide occurs in a certain part only because of gravitational pull between moon and sun, but still the amount of water is the same.
This is sceince not biblical accounts.
They've have found woods in Mt. Ararat which impossible to a good thinking man to bring it there.
People can do a lot of stupid things... that doesn't mean the wood wasn't included in mt. ararat. Take it for just one second to think... how does these scientists know about the noah's ark that showed up in mt. ararat? Was that really the noah's ark? For all we know, that could be another boat or a big house that shaped like a boat. Are there any positive conclusions that it is the real noah's ark? Nganong more than half of the people are skeptics about their discovery? Why? because these are all theories... they spoke of... "this looks like a tree of an old age and could be the noah's boat...." do you see the sentence there brod? looks like and could be. meaning they don't know... it's all just plain theories.
It is He who sits on the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in; Isaiah 40:22
This doesn't prove that the earth is circle or round... read closely. For all we know they were sitting in a circle that was sketched on the ground (earth). Does not fall in to conclusion that the earth is circle. CIRCLE OF THE EARTH... now tell me what does that mean?
Finally, there are tons of sceintific discovery that the bible can't prove that or vice versa but as we are in the age of internet and full skeptics and philosophers, the story holds nothing but to give people more confusions. If the entire noah's ark will show up somehwere in the pacific... then there will be changes. If not, it's all good story anyway.
