Turkish Academic Claims: 'Noah Used a Cell Phone Before the Flood'

Such ignorance: It's not new that the internet is filled with absurd theories about the creation of the world and what has occurred since, as depicted in our sacred sources. However, when these theories come from self-proclaimed 'academics' who claim to base them on rational considerations, it's utterly laughable.

The latest humorous headline comes from a Turkish lecturer named Yavuz Ornek from Istanbul University, who now argues that Noah communicated with his son using a cell phone while they were miles apart during the flood. He states, "The Quran mentions massive waves 300-400 meters high, and Noah's son was outside the ark, distant from his father - yet they conversed." When asked how they managed this feat, the 'great' lecturer confidently replied without a hint of irony: "We believe Noah communicated with his son using a cell phone."

"I am a scientist, and I speak about science," he claimed to bolster his argument, further asserting that Noah built the ark with steel plates and used nuclear energy. To that, we can only say - blessed am I not being born a Gentile.
