Would Noah's Ark have floated?

[Cow Poke]

Wait, is she a witch if she floats or if she sinks? I always get that one mixed up.

If she drowns, then she's a good person, and should not have been drowned. But you have to vote for the bill so you can find out what's IN the bill.

floats. If she drowns then she wasn't a witch. convenient.

So I guess you have to wait until she actually drowns and is dead. Couldn't someone just jump in and save her if she sinks to the bottom but before she's actually dead? Or do you have to wait because she might just be using magic or faking it? But if a witch floats because of some magical powere, couldn't she also pretend to drown and use magic to hold her breath for a really long time?

Yes, exactly.

Well, "Hope" floats, and we can always hope. Right?

Two comments: 1) Why doesn't Lava Soap float? 2) Pumice is just hardened beer foam. Not a rock at all.

Yes, at least according to a recent paper published in the Journal of Physics Special Topics (a peer reviewed student journal put out by the University of Leicester) which declares that the Ark as described in Genesis 6:13-22 would have not only floated but would have supported the weight of 2.15 million sheep without sinking.

I really would like to know exactly how they determined that there were only 35,000 species of animals at the time.

P2_9 The animals float two by two, hurrah! Abstract & Paper

Hurrah! The animals could have floated two by two according to physicists

Aren't the real issues whether it could have even been built; how were all of the animals cared for; how about food and water for the animals; etc.?
