I'm also curious about other living things, especially microscopic things like bacteria. How was Noah able to get these tiny organisms onto the Ark?

I wonder if anyone's ever done the math to figure out just how big this Ark would have to be in order to hold two specimens of every animal on earth?

Take with you seven of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and two of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, and also seven of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth. - Genesis 7:2-3

The plot thickens!

It says seven pairs and two pairs, not seven animals and two animals. So the population of the Ark was twice as large as your numbers suggest.

But come on...did he have to bring rats, mosquitoes, cockroaches and Republicans?

Given the last few years of politics, it's Arizona I'd like to be rid of.

That's what one creationist told me.

No poop. And you don't need to feed them.

I'm guessing they had a big styrofoam container.

They seem to have survived and exist today.
Do you think they were on the ark or did they just ride the great flood out?
