I'd let her mount my ararat ...even if she is crazy

Have you seen this show?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2D8xTZ6rD0
(this is just part of the very first episode)

Karl is frustratingly stupid, but the show is absolutely ****ing hilarious.


On topic, I saw a special on "the search for the Arc". Supposedly, from satellite images, there is an Arc shape up on that mountain... from what you can tell, it's nothing but a feature of the mountain.
 
I watched one episode the other day when I was just channel surfing and saw it. I want to get the first season when I get around to it.
 
It'll be a lifelong dream alright... because she'll die looking for it. She's going to rot of old age and never find it.

What a waste of life. :(

"Hey guys... my hair is half the length of my face." - Seriously, what the **** is up with that guys hair?

Also, does she have an elongated skull?

If the Ark is true and she finds it? Then she hopefully encourages everyone else to look outside of their perceptive, "but the TV said", boxes

Of all the people in the world to have attempted it, I doubt a baywatch babe is going to find the ark.

That'd be hilarious though.
 
Whatever it takes to get back in the spotlight. Roseanne is running for president - I prefer her pear shape and wrinkles to the plastic and peroxide of Ms. Noah's Ark.

I wish her good luck in her biblical ventures, more power to her. Perhaps she'll float with all the spongy and plastic-like materials she's added to her face and body?

....but that's not going to happen because it doesnt exist ...you know that right?

why not search for a cure for cancer or something more meaningful than chasing fairy tales? I mean if an expedition was mounted to find a living unicorn they would be mercilessly ridiculed. I dont see why she or anyone else who searches for the ark is exempt from that same ridicule. as far as I'm concerned she can do whatever it is she wants but to say this is noble or inspiring is kinda ridiculous
 
I wasn't encouraging her at all, I am saying in the event that if she found it, which would probably make a pretty big impact on us, it would encourage others to look for similar things.

Also, why aren't you searching for the cure for cancer yourself, Stern?
 
because I'd rather work towards goals that I can actually atain?

just like if someone discovered a leprechaun people might be encouraged to search for an esquilax? I'm surprised you even hold that as a possibility. that mankind's/animals salvation (from the brink of extinction due to god's wrath) hinged on a giant floating boat and a couple of women who truely believe their vaginas are clown cars?

I'm not attacking the fact that you said people should be encouraged to search out mysteries I'm just saying it's odd that you'd even suggest there's a possibility she might find something
 
I'm not. Again. I am saying if.

If I woke up one morning and saw on a newspaper "NOAH'S ARK FOUND", it would make me think there's more possibility to other such things.

Please quote where I said "I encourage her to look for this because I believe that Noah's Ark exists (Spoiler: I don't.)." rather than "If (In the event that it happens, regardless of what I think beforehand) she finds it, then we may as well let other people look for those sort of things too, as they apparent have a greater chance to exist than previously percieved."

because I'd rather work towards goals that I can actually atain?

Do you think what's-her-face can attain those goals instead?
 
Leave it to stern to not understand the post he's taking about. Danimal was responding to warped, who asked what would happen if she found it.

Not even Danimal would be crazy enough to believe the ark actually existed.
 
Well I haven't exactly gone up there and checked myself, I just think it's very unlikely.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Dinunnuh nennunnuh newwwwrrrr

ya I dont have to go up there to be absolutely sure there's no ark.

I'd wake up thinking I had been magically transported to some sort of bizarro world where the laws of physics dont apply as witnessed by the discovery of a magical boat that somehow managed to squeeze two of every living being on earth along with provisions to last 40 days and 40 nights. in other words it doesnt even enter into my personal realm of "well that might be possible". there is no possibility in my book
 
And you don't have to try and cure cancer before knowing you can't do it?

You won't get much further in life with that kind of negative attitude, Stern.

No you wouldn't. You'd sigh, mumble "Bilderberg are at it again," and take another bong hit.
 
You're right, Bad^Hat, I don't even look at newspapers anymore.

That is of course working under the assumption that Noah's Ark is actually a magical boat that squeezed two of every living being on Earth within itself, rather than the conclusion of countless language translations of ancient texts that wasn't even written by Noah or anything alive prior to the floods.

The Ark might not even be a boat!

Instead you spend your time telling kids to put the same generalised walls over facets of their reality purely out of your own spite.

Was there, perhaps, a goal you had in your childhood that was unfairly taken away from you?
 
Even if it did exist.. I don't think a wooden ark is going to survive five millenia of mountain top weather.

Oh, I see. You have faith that there's no ark.

no I am 100% certain there is no ark. until there is any evidence that supports it's existence I'll continue to be 100% certain it doesnt exist. faith would imply I believed despite the facts
 
Absence of evidence is not conclusive lack of absence. Especially in cases where no one's even bothered to look for evidence in the first place. You don't have evidence to prove there is no ark, so your belief is faith based.

lol that's not at all retarded reasoning. I have no evidence leprechauns dont exist so therefore it must be faith based. I can do that with a whole bunch of things; unicorns, santa claus, the toof fairy, yosimite sam etc

the burden of proof lies with proving it exists
 
I'm sorry, that's just how reality works. Plus, you can sort of prove that Santa and the tooth fairy don't exist (atleast in the capacity that we understand them), but yeah, supernatural things and urban legends are pretty much impossible to actually disprove. I don't think unicorns are incredibly likely, but I'm not certain there's any sort of biological reason they couldn't exist. But anyway, that's the beauty of science, it gives everything a fair chance. As for your evidence, if you don't want to be called out for not having evidence to support your belief, you should've presented it in the first place. And the burden of proof has nothing to do with this. We're talking about some one who believes something doesn't exist without evidence to support that. Belief without evidence is faith.

We don't have any proof that there is life anywhere else in the universe. I suppose you're 100% certain Earth has the only life in the universe?

lol. you can certainly prove something doesnt exist when there's zero proof that it does exist? what exactly would I refute? it's not even theoretically possible as there is no proof to support noah's ark therefore it doesnt exist until evidence is brought to light that proves it's existance

many expeditions have been made (you convientently ignored that part) without a shred of proof to prove it's existance therefore until there is some proof it doesnt exist

lol. except there's plenty of proof that suggests life is abundant in the universe. from water on mars to microbes on venus:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrat...ble_extraterrestrial_life_in_the_Solar_System

there is no supporting evidence that proves the existence of noah's ark
 
a) No, I acknowledged it, and said you should've put it earlier in your reply instead of further justifying my opinion that your belief is faith based. Besides, it isn't conclusive evidence. Anyway, I wouldn't be entirely shocked if you'd never taken a look at that evidence before coming to the conclusion you had.

b) Your logic makes no sense. If you lived in Europe hundreds of years ago and thought that there was no such thing as alligators, there would be no evidence to prove you wrong. But you'd be wrong. Your belief would not be based on conclusive evidence, therefore it would be based on faith. The same applies now.

c) That isn't proof of life, that's evidence that life could exist. Belief that it does, until proven by an actual example, qualifies as faith.
 
To be fair, I don't think believing in the observable laws of the universe can fully constitute "faith" as you're using it. He's not simply pointing out the absence of evidence for the Ark's existence, he's pointing out how easily refutable it is by the fact that, were it to exist, it wouldn't adhere to what we've come to know about reality. Sure, there's always the possibility that it exists, but does it? Haha, no.

But hey, I probably just heard that stuff on TV or something. *munches cheeseburger*
