Anyway, while on the moon they had trouble with getting the steering to work on the lunar rover. So he prayed that night and the next morning it worked. He took this as a sign of God being with him. Blah blah blah.

Dial it forward and he gets back to earth and decides he needs to minister. And in doing so, he figures out that the best way to do it is to find Noah's ark. So he devotes most of the rest of his life to finding that ark. And it turns out that Mt Ararat is not an ideal place to go hunting for stuff. Really cold and rocky there.

So, I'm having a hard time listening to much without wondering how an astronaut can think that water got high enough to put a boat up there in the first place.

Astronauts didn't invent anything, they were mostly fighter pilots who demonstrated an ability to withstand high g and follow orders. Religious delusion creeps in even amongst top notch scientists though, it's just far less common than amongst the gen pop. If you're smart enough to be smart you are less likely to have the neurological failings that make you believe in fairies, but it is clearly possible to be afflicted with them and also be smart in more practical ways. Sad but demonstrably true.

Noah didn't take the dinosaurs on the ark. Because they weren't Christian like all the modern animals are. So they all drowned.

If the ark came to rest on Mount Ararat as the waters receded it would have been @ sea level - not 17,000 ft ASL. So, no problem with lack of oxygen until the water dropped a massive amount.
