    It's hopeless to try to get a logical answer out of Christians when it comes to the specifics of the Bible myths. If there was every a story in the Bible that proves the Bible cannot be taken seriously as a reliable source for historical facts, Noah's Ark is it. If you question fundamentalist Christians in detail, in the end, they will always fall back on MAGIC when they reach the end of their rope and cannot explain anything else.

    As DarkMatter notes so hilariously--why go through this whole exercise? Why couldn't god just smite down the bad people with his magic rather than going through the whole exercise of a global flood and killing everything?

    Salt water is denser than fresh water so sinks to the bottom - the salt water fish lived in the lower reaches of the ocean and the freshwater fish near the surface.

    Obviously Noah had several large tanks on board his wooden boat for the freshwater fish to live in, as well electric pumps, filters, and water desalination plants to refresh the water in the tanks.

    My question is, what did they do with all the tonnes of elephant poop produced daily?

    I don't know, I wasn't there.

    Salt water and fresh water do not mix easily though.

    What else. Magic.

    He used magic to get penguins and kangaroos to the boat site. God used magic to keep a large boat of wood from splitting apart. He used magic to feed them all and get rid of the waste. He used magic to keep the carnivores from eating the herbivores. He used magic so the inbreeding did not cause genetic diseases. He used magic to instantly bring back plants for the herbivores to have food to eat after a world wide flood.
