On this episode we discuss a simple story which illustrates some big lessons. After reading this little story on the podcast, we discuss "Four Reactions to Uncomfortable Realities."

In the field of Bible/science research, surprising results frequently come to light. How can we properly navigate new ideas which push us out of our comfort zones? What should we do (and not do) with those little "dragons" that appear on the end of our beds?

Albert Einstein contributed numerous breakthrough contributions to science. His discoveries, which include both special and general relativity, the photoelectric effect, the mass-energy equivalence formula, and a mathematical explanation for Brownian motion, ushered in the era of modern physics.

One of the great unsolved mysteries left behind by Einstein was the origin of earth's magnetic field.

"Albert Einstein worked diligently, but unsuccessfully, to understand the origin of Earth’s magnetic field, which he considered to be one of the five most important unsolved problems in physics."

Although Einstein was a deist, he cast aside the Bible's recorded history early in life. However, the Bible's ancient record holds the data which ultimately leads to the solving of this great mystery of geophysics (and several others).

Does the Bible say that Noah's ark landed on Mt. Ararat? In fact, the Bible does not identify Mt. Ararat as the place the ark came to rest. Instead, it identifies "the mountains of Ararat" in Genesis 8:4. The mountains of Ararat in eastern Turkey include many mountain peaks.

The biblical text gives some clues to help determine where the ark came to rest. We discuss these clues, and show how science can be used to help pinpoint one particular mountain as the most likely resting place for Noah, his family, and the animals inside the ark.

Our discussion flows out of an article Dr. Aardsma published in 1997, which narrowed down step by step which mountain is likely to be the place where the ark actually landed, and explained why this question is of importance to biblical chronology (and much of the Bible/science research that has happened since that time).
