Did anyone catch this on Netflix by any chance?
If so, what did you think?

A bigger question - how many PRC people have a Netflix account?

A bigger question - how many PRC people have a Netflix account? 90% Ha! Well that being said, there are some serious structural issues with the design of the arc, and if you haven't seen it, the design that they came up with was nothing that the pictures tell you about. That was pretty cool. But aside from that its just not physically possible to put every animal on to this thing even if you pressed them all together.

I do not believe that the bible tells us that the entire planet was covered with water, Moses had no idea that the Earth was a ball of rock in space, if you use land instead of earth it would make a lot more sense. The bible also tell us the locust covered the earth, but I have yet to hear a sermon on how locust covered Mt Everest, or the locust covered the Pacific ocean or Antarctica, again the word land instead of earth would make more sense. If you believe water covered the entire earth during the flood then you should believe locust did too. Also Psalm 104 describes the creation is says that God put barriers so the mountains would never be covered again. So either Genesis is wrong or Psalm 104 is wrong or people just misunderstand the story.

I Just want to point out that God also said he would never destroy the earth with a flood again and gave a rainbow. So how do you feel about all the floods since then? What about Katrina?

God never said there wouldn't be any more floods, think of the Indian ocean tsunami, over 200,000 people, Mt Krakatoa was even bigger but killed fewer people, fewer people alive when it happened, I am sure the Jorden river flooded in the spring and I know the Nile did until it was dammed. I would never say the flood couldn't have happened, that would deny an all powerful God, but I if it did every species of animal would have a genetic bottle neck, they don't, neither does Man our dna is too varied to have descended from one man 4000 years ago, and I don't believe that God did that a stumbling block for the wicked, the standard prc answer when they don't have one.

But the rainbow was a sign he wouldn't destroy the earth/land with a flood ever again. Then you need to take into account where it says the earth/land will be destroyed at the end of the world with fire, it will melt the elements. I don't think the Bible is saying the flood only covered the land mass that Noah knew about.

Before I reply please let me say that this is only my opinion only, there are may people on this site that know far more theology than I ever will. I have not known everything since I was a teenager, and yes I was a like that then. My own parents and grandparents believed in a world wide flood, I do not believe that salvation depends on it. Jesus said there was a flood that is good enough for me. First of all in the last days the earth will be destroyed by fire, but not all will die, people flee to seek refuge. Next there is no credible evidence for me to see that proves a world wide flood, it should show in the fossil record, it doesn't, early Egyptian civilization should have been destroyed, it wasn't, pyramids be being built 4000 years ago. If Noah was the father of all men it would show in our dna, it doesn't, is shows we have a common male ancestor about 100,000 years ago. It would show in animal dna, it doesn't, it would show in earth's geology, it doesn't. It would have kill almost all plant life, it did not, try putting a plant in a pail of water for a year and see if it is still alive, few I know will. Than there is the bible, please read Psalm 104, a short account of the very early creation of the earth that was written in the late Bronze age 3000 years ago that holds up today, I my opinion had to have come from God, it also says that God put barriers so the mountains would never be covered again with water, the first part of the Psalm is right, and is excepted as fact by almost everyone why shouldn't believe it all. And then there is Exodus 10: 15 and locust covered the whole earth, if you believe that water covered the entire earth than you should believe that the entire earth was covered by locust, however I do not know of one person that believes that Antarctica was covered with locusts, it would show in the ice cores it doesn't but the flood would also show in the cores and it doesn't. There is so much evidence in the bible of much smaller events such as battles destruction of cities and such, why would an event as large as the flood be hidden. I am not trying to destroy any persons beliefs, this is just my opinion.

He explained as best he could what he did not know, and attributed all remaining mysteries to a powerful God.

Speciation. If God could speak Creation into existence, he could probably manage to make the animals evolve into the different animal trees we see today.
