Noah's flood: What happened to all the other people who knew how to make boats? [Spirituality & Religion]
Like none of them managed to float on a boat with supplies? Seems like it'd be a lot easier for a couple or a family to survive with 40 days of supplies if you weren't filling your boat with all the animals.
What do you reckon?

I certainly do. But i was under the impression that you took the bible literally. Do you not think that the Noachian flood literally drowned everyone in the world? I mean, i would applaud you for that, i just didn't think you were willing to accept that the story wasn't literal.
lol no need to get frustrated, a simple yes or no would have sufficed.
So then that brings us back to the question. You said : "Where they were, they didn't need to make boats"
Well if "where they were" was the entire planet then yes, many people in many places would have needed boats for travel, trade, fishing etc. So what did you mean by that?

I didn't ask that. Sorry for the misunderstanding. You said that "where they were" (Noah and his family) people didn't need to make boats. But people in other places did. So if the whole world was flooded then other people in other places would have had boats. Do you understand now?
I understand. I don't know how many people were alive on the earth at that time of the flood. All I know is that Noah and his family survived to repopulate the earth.
