To no surprise, the claim of an evangelical christian with an agenda has proven to be a lie. The alleged "ark" in Turkey has been proven to be as much a sham as Oded Golan's "ossuary of cheezus chrispy".
I deliberately chose the WingNutDaily site as a link. If a cheerleading site for religion like WingNutDaily is willing to call this a fraud, then it certainly is. WingNutDaily was one of the biggest sellers of this fraud when it was first claimed.
This is why archeology should be performed by professionals without bias, not the religious and gullible (but I repeat myself) who are desperately trying to prove something to fit their predisposed opinions and agendas. There is as much evidence for an "ark" as there is for jews having been in Egypt (i.e. none at all).
If people want to believe in religion, they're perfectly free to do so and no one is stopping them nor trying to. But making claims that are easily debunked won't lend their positions any credibility.
