N2143:  Prince Nouri of Baghdad found the ark in 1887

 

Edited by Greg Neyman

 

Argument: 

John Joseph, the Prince of Nouri, Grand-Archdeacon of Babylon (etc., etc), found the ark on Ararat on his third (or eighth) attempt.  His measurements coincided exactly with the measurements in the Bible 

Source:  Tim LaHaye and John Morris, The Ark on Ararat, 1976.  pp. 64-67

 

Response: 

  1. John Joseph was known as an unreliable person.  His exalted titles could not be verified (they were made up).  He was refused ordination, however, he continued for the next ten years to claim that he was on his way to the ordination service

  2. It is unclear, but evidence seems to indicate he was once a mental patient in California
