Has Noah’s Ark been found?

Some people say they are sure that the Hong Kong evangelists have found Noah’s Ark. Some others say it can never be. Some claim further, “... proven to be a fake, as has every claim by biblical literalists that they have found the boat ...”

I would be happy to see Noah’s Ark being found. Because that is another piece of evidence corroborating the story of Noah as recorded in the Book of Genesis in the Bible. It does not prove that the Bible is the word of God. But it does add credibility to the claim.

So far, I believe that the team found some wooden structure up there on Mount Ararat. I am not convinced that it is Noah’s Ark.

Sometimes people who want to believe every word in the Bible is literally true believe too easily.

On the other hand, there are also people who believe too easily that the Bible has been proven wrong, that all the claims collaborating the Bible are fakes.

Neither is a healthy attitude towards finding the truth.

This has to do with some people having their minds made up regardless of the evidence. We have to follow the evidence where it leads, but then our interpretation may not be totally correct. Humans all have limitations, and so do our methods of inquiry.

Agreed, very much.
