Not to mention if we were to all live by Christian standards this would be a much better place to live.
Sure, but such standards (love your neighbor, don't lie, don't murder, forgiveness, etc.) are essentially ubiquitous across numerous beliefs and cultures.
Nobody bashes Christianity or any other religion because of principles like those.

Oh look, another one of those, former Christian turned atheist/ agnostic, " let's put up a post so me and my fellow atheists can make fun of Christians" post!

Stay classy Roger.

I'm not making fun of Christians, I'm making fun of Christians who believe a 500 year old man cared for penguins who walked from Antartica for 40 days on a boat he and his sons built floating on more water than exists on Earth.

The Ark Encounter, as sister attraction of the popular Creation Museum, is a Christian evangelistic outreach intended to bring the Ark of Noah’s day to life. Located in Williamstown, Kentucky (south of Cincinnati and 40 miles from the Creation Museum), the Ark equips visitors to understand the reality of the events that are recorded in the book of Genesis:
The global Flood did happen as an act of God’s judgment.
Noah and his family really did build a ship of the same size and dimensions as written in Genesis 6.
All of the animals brought by God to Noah did fit inside the Ark.
Noah and his family could care for all of the animals while they were on the Ark.
The Flood of Noah’s day was a worldwide catastrophic event that resulted in large-scale human and animal death, leaving behind many of the plant and animal fossils and landforms we see today.
God saved Noah and his family and the animals on the Ark, just as He had promised.
The Ark Encounter takes advantage of the latest environmental technologies to be good stewards of creation. Additional future phases for the attraction include a pre-Flood walled city, the Tower of Babel, a first-century village, a journey in history from Abraham to the parting of the Red Sea, a walk-through aviary, an expanded petting zoo, and other attractions that uphold the truth of God’s Word.
Seems legit.

And there it is. The unbeliever saying God isn't powerful enough to accommodate any of these things.

Being part of history and Noah's ark should not compute for a logical person.

The question isn't whether if a God existed could he flood the Earth in my opinion. By being God, the very nature of it is he can do what he chooses.
If God is love, and love is kind, why would he kill so many people in a global flood?
I have a difficult time accepting the global flood from a rationale perspective, but the character of the loving God that JESUS presents doesn't seem to be in keeping with many of the Old Testament Biblical literature.
I once had a lot of "faith". Then, life happened. And God wasn't there.

A very simple objection is that it's not possible to build a 400 foot boat entirely out of wood that is seaworthy.
It's a good thing God gave him those magic blueprints.

LOL I love this argument...
You should probably not take God in a bet against a tribe with iron chariots then, cue his all powerful self takes a beatdown.

What did the animals eat when they got off the boat? I'd imagine we lost quite a few species.

Manna from heaven. Please don't doubt God.

I agree that God is love, but I would say he is gracious more than kind........semantics I know.
I'll ask you a question that will likely further your argument more than convince you of mine. The reason he brought the great flood was how sinful the people of earth had become. So why hasn't he brought death and destruction on the same such level since? Were the people of earth that much worse than we are today? If so that was a terrible world back then.
You obviously have a background in scripture so I don't have to tell you that "the wages of sin are death", and we all deserve the death that those people received then.

I'm truly sorry that you feel this way. I wish I knew you and was able to encourage you. We disagree but I appreciate that you aren't being a jerk about it.

What the heck is an evolutionist? I hope you realize that its not a religion that requires a belief.
Its a scientific theory supported by substantiated evidence. Whether you believe it or not.

Difference?
Natural selection is integral to evolution.

Evolution is a myth.
Just like democracy is good.
Everyone knows this. Jeez
