Huge ????? The dead sea scrolls was huge, the terracotta warrior army was huge ...this is not the first time Noah's Ark has been found and I'm sure every boat in the future including the Titanic will get the same label.

Not to step on anyone's religion but if you are looking for a boat that housed two of every animal on earth - it won't be medium size boat with a few compartments. You need living quarters for every incompatible species, for Noah's family, and a bird sanctuary. You also have bins for the food supplies (for each species) and don't forget the library to house all the written history (or how else we would have heard about Adam & Eve).

In light of this - why is every old boat found a HUGE find ?????

I dunno, Noah's ski-chalet doesn't have quite the same ring to it. Perhaps we need just a tad more in the fact line before we call this the Ark. Is it even made of gopherwood?

Not compelling that that it must be 'the' ark. There are a lot of structures built for various reasons where the materials are imported from great distances. Stonehenge, the pyramids, several wooden monasteries in various cultures built on mountains far above the tree lines. Could one culture decide to build a boat to sail away with the sun gods - there is a lot of religions in the past. Cherry picking artifacts to meet a historical 'urban' myth seems a stretch.

the testing done on the wood so far, indicates its is not from any known specie of tree

It's always been rumored that the ark was in that area.

That said, I still call BS on the entire world being flooded.

As a biologist who studied fish...how do they explain the survival of saltwater/freshwater fish after the flood? Depending on how you look at it, changes in salinity brought on by 40 days/nights of rain would have caused a lot of problems for the fish of either group. And do they even mention how all the land plants survived? Again, a flood that covered everything would have changed the soil characteristics of all the land on earth...not many plants could survive that kind of change.
