In the bible it said Noah gathered All living things, does this include all the plants as well? Microscopic lifeforms such as bacteria? <br><br>Based on the dimensions of the ark given in the bible, how did Noah fit all the animals on it? How did he carry enough food to feed them all? Did the carnivores not try and eat the other animals? <br><br>Once they landed on dry land again, and he let the animals go, what happened to the animals that were now outside of their climate? For that matter, how could all of the plants and animals have survived outside of their natural habitat on a boat for so long?

Well, I guess all I can say is this: God-created floods require God-provided miracles. If God shut the mouths of those lions for Daniel, couldn't God have shut the mouths of the carnivores on board the ark? And if God provided the Israelites with manna to eat in the wilderness, or if Jesus could feed the multitudes with only a few fish and loaves of bread, couldn't God have equally kept all those animals nourished?


True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin

There is a lot of information dealing with these particular questions at Answers in Genesis. We may not ever know precisely how a number of the details were worked out that are not recorded in Scripture. Unquestionably, there were unique providential influences present in order to accomplish what was necessary, but that site has some interesting articles addressing some of your particular inquiries. All we can say in the end of the day is let God be true and every man a liar.

Jason linked you to AIG's website,which is fantastic, but here are the more specific links to your questions about Noah's flood.<br><br>http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/faq/flood.asp<br><br>http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/faq/noah.asp<br><br>There are a ton of articles for your consideration, both layman oriented, as well as technical. I hope they answer your questions.<br><br>Fred<br><br>[color:blue]Edited to add URL tags. "How to:" can be found here: Guide to using HTML and Markup Code</font color=blue>
