Surely either he or his wife was into decorating! Maybe a few ferns, a ficus tree, some ivy topiaries, and a wreath on the door???

Just to get a few things straight- even if the Watchtower math is way off, the story
of Noah would still have taken place less than 6000 years ago. Science knows for
a fact that the entire earth was not underwater less than 6000 years ago. Science knows
that the mountains are older than that.They also know that total submersion of the plants would have killed bunches of them.
Allowing fresh and salt water to mix together would have killed plants and animals.
Animals that got to isolated parts of the world did so far more than 5 or 6 thousand years ago-
there was no dropping kangaroos off in Australia before the ark settled in the middle east.
The dinosaurs were real. They were gone long before Man was on the scene. They did not
get kicked off Jehovah's list for the ark.The only things that Science cannot explain away, but the Bible is able to do so, is how there
are no more unicorns and fire-breathing dragons. They simply missed the boat. -

A quick Google search says that there are well over 2 million species of life on earth. Some estimates say it can be over 5 million, even possibly over 20 million. So it would have been physically for 2 of every species of life to be on the ark. So if the ark story is just a myth, does this imply the entire Bible is a myth? Is this proof?

I've heard of trees that are over 5000 years old. These would have been growing 1000 years BEFORE the flood (when Adam was on his last legs). Did these trees survive under water for a year?

He probably took on feed for the animals, but if you think about it...... There was no greenery when he landed hence the OK to eat the animals and the statment that they would always be in fear of the Human race after this.
The dove came back with an olive branch but I bet there wasn't much else available. The bible also didn't mention if that olive branch had leaves, did it?
