quote: Notice how he put the Dr on this response. Think maybe he is trying to intimidate me with his expertise? Basically, the "journal" has no info on this article other than what the article states. We need to take it on blind faith that it was in fact reviewed prior to publication by people familiar with the subject. I guess for this journal it doesn't mean people familiar with engineering, but rather people familiar with apologetics. Gee sleve, it takes you a month to get a response. Funny how an atheist can get a response within a day. Just yanking your chain. You prob get a response today too. Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Someone here must know some engineers and by extension some engineers familiar with marine applications. I would like to get a legitimate review of the article.
Should I blindly email some engineering depts at Universitys that have engineering schools that deal with marine aspects? Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

This is also telling.
quote:Journal of Creation writing guidelines They accept anything as long as it deals with biblical creation. I have a feeling the same editor that reviews articles on chemistry also reviews articles on law. I mean why wouldn't it be the same editor. The only important thing is that it matches the apologetics and doctrine of the magazine. Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

I would not make to much of the Dr. adding his title. You did call him Mr. in your email, when it would have been fairly easy to check. Why would he expect me to know his credentials? That in itself is fairly pompous. I know a few Dr's, medical and PHD's. The only ones that would point out in a situation like this that they were Dr's are the assholes. In his original response he signed it as Jonathan Sarfati. In his second email he went out of his way to highlight Dr. It was obviously an attempt to try to make the impression of expertise and authority and possibly an attempt to try to be intimidating. If not why would he do it like this

It may surprise you to know that wood is stronger than steel on a pound for pound basis in the direction of the fibers.
Which actually means nothing in this discussion, and I would love to see the data to support this assertion. I have searched the web and have found no evidence for this.
quote:Wood, Aluminum, Steel & Composite Construction So you need 3 times as much wood to equal strength of steel. That is an awful lot of wood. Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Sorry, but I just don't think this line of argument is persuasive.
Unless someone can provide info from actual marine engineers. This whole post of yours deals with steel not wood. There is a lot more at play here than just inherent strength. I am still waiting for you to show evidence that pound for pound wood is stronger than steel. I am not going to take your word for it.
This vessel is ~3 times the length of the purported ark, and so would need to be 9 times as strong for the same longitudinal bending stress, thus the purported ark could have structure about the same as the steel structure in this ship.
Please show your workings for these assertions.Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

From your link
quote: Art Bell? Art fucking Bell? are you serious? Can you tell us anything about the author John Zajac? Anything about him so we can determine whether he is someone that we should listen to? Amazing that there are no references isn't it. WOOOOOOOOOOO
Page 2 is even more exciting. Here is the final paragraph. quote: Are you fricking serious? And Percy made you a mod. That ought to be interesting. Edited by Theodoric, : No reason given.Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

I had no idea it was a publication from Art Bell. You missed the whole copyright thing right under the title and subtitle?

There are other cases of colossally huge stones perfectly fitted together centuries ago which still exist and surpass the technical know-how of modern man (in South America). Maybe you would want to show this. That way we can determine on out own if your are flinging BS or not. I for one do not believe such a thing exists, but if you could provide the evidence maybe I can be convinced.Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

AiG email to Tourism Cabinet reveals delay in Ark Park groundbreaking, slow fundraising
Gee I thought it was supposed to be $150 million dollar project. They only have $4 million? This is pretty laughable. They don't even own all the property yet.
