   $$ I've been asking questions like this for many years and have yet to get a   
   sensible answer from any fundy.  How DID all the critters get to the   
   Middle-East from all over the globe?  Then how did they all get back to   
   where they came from?  That's not even to mention all the specialized diets   
   to meet their needs for almost a year - and all the waste matter they   
   produced on a daily basis - or what they ate on the unsanitary slime covered   
   earth when the ark landed.  Note: I saw an illustration in a book one time   
   showing the animals leaving the ark into a wonderful paradise like place   
   full of trees, grass and flowers!  I guess they all sprouted up "overnight."

   $$ They'll say whatever the gullible and those who NEED to believe will   
   believe.

   $$  I hope one of the fundies will answer this one........
