  Size of the Earth

  ...has obviously expanded greatly since Noah's day, when he could, in a short period, collect pairs of all animals and birds from all over the world, without the benefit of modern air transport. Then after the Flood, the critters all had to migrate, at the double-quick, to their present habitats in Tasmania, the Galapagos, the coasts of Antarctica, Patagonia, the American Southwest, or wherever. It's clear the Earth was no more than a few hundred miles across, probably flat, and with no inconvenient oceans like, say, the Pacific.
  

  Has the author of this site even studied what Genesis says about these things? God brought the animals to Noah. (Noah did not have to travel all over the world collecting animals.)

  You're right, God did bring the animals to Noah, I guess that changes everything huh???

  Leolaia, ever had a white pizza? Mozzarella, feta, and ricotta? Truly a religious experience.

  Ahem... I thought everyone knew!

  The Animals went in Two by Two
  The animals went in two by two, Hurrah, Hurrah
  The animals went in two by two
  The elephant and the kangaroo
  And they all went into the ark
  Just to get out of the rain

  The animals went in three by three, Hurrah, Hurrah,
  The animals went in three by three,
  The wasp, the ant and the bumblebee
  And they all went into the ark
  Just to get out of the rain

  The animals went in four by four, Hurrah, Hurrah,
  The animals went in four by four,
  The hippopotamus got stuck in the door,
  And they all went into the ark
  Just to get out of the rain.

  So exactly HOW DID the kangaroos make it from the middle east (where Mt. Ararat is) all the way to Australia? And HOW DID the penguins waddle down from the ark's landing spot all the way to Antarctica?

  God must have picked them up and transported them with his own hand, much like he did with Elijah when he got taken up in the chariot!!

  Or those animals "evolved" separately on those continents after the Noachian flood.

  Enquiring minds deserve to know!!

  Now there's an idea -- watching that imbecilic Flood cartoon while downing white pizza. Oh the indigestion!

  Gopher! Are you trying to hijack this thread and turn it into an evolution debate? Typical Vikings fan....
