I was reading wikipedia and apparently they never actually found Noah's Ark. If the flood really happened, shouldn't there be remains somewhere?

And if you really think about it, how did Noah fit all of the animals on one ship?

Most animals are insects, dumbass. They can fit into a very tiny area.

But how did he find all the insects in such a small amount of time? And if it took a long time, wouldn't all the insects keep dying as quickly as they'd find more?

About 40% of all described insect species are beetles (about 400,000 species[2]), and new species are discovered frequently. Some estimates put the total number of species, described and undescribed, at as high as 100 million, but 1 million is a more accepted figure.[3] The largest taxonomic family, the Curculionidae (the weevils or snout beetles), also belongs to this order.

They are discovered again frequently. Obviously they were first discovered when they were guided on to the ark.

Maybe they're just now discovering all the flying ones? You know, they wouldn't need to be on a boat.

The best thing relating the flood to actual historical events is that the reason a lot of cultures have a flood story, besides the purging metaphor, is that the black sea was formed by the ocean busting through what is now Istanbul.

There used to be less types of animals. Evolution has acted in the past 3000 years to invent many, such as 399,999 types of beetles, while God's wrath has eliminated some, such as unicorns and snakes-with-legs. In Noah's day, there were only like twenty types of animals, and that includes both christians AND asians.
