Oh my...Do you think the interior of the earth is filled with water?

Really?...I've done my research Campbell unlike you. Take note of the parts I have underlined.

The longest wooden ship ever built, the six-masted New England gaff schooner Wyoming, had a "total length" of 450 ft (measured from tip of jib boom (98 ft) to tip of spanker boom (89 ft)) and a "length on deck" of 350 ft (110 m). The 100 ft (30 m)-difference is due to her extremely long jib boom of 98 ft (30 m) its out-board length being 84 ft (26 m). The ship was actually only 350 feet long.

Even though this ship was heavily reinforced with steel it had a tendency to flex in heavy seas, and a large steam driven pump was installed to pump the water out.

Did Noah have steel, or a big steam pump?

You got to be kiding me. So now there are: 515,523,207,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00 0 liters of water hidden inside the earth? Ugh, You guys should really put more thought into it when making apologetics for the flood myth.

Get this. If you took all that water and made it into a sphere, it would have a diameter of around 2100 kilometers. The moon's diameter is ~3500 kilometers.

And what about the food, poo and pee? Where did it all come from/go to?

Yup...The answers just keep getting sillier...I can't wait to see what comes next. It reminds me of the never ending story, and just as entertaining.

1. Well the ships of Zheng's armada had nine masts with decks 400 feet long. That was around the year 1400 A.D. They were considered to be the largest wooden ships ever built.

2. And about 2,258 years ago, Archimedes devised a water pump that could be operated by two men that could move massive amounts of water.

3. And 3400 years ago, the Hittites produced the best iron weapons in the world.

All of this could of been duplicated by Noah, and since it was God that directed the building of the Ark, I'm sure He would of given Noah the best information on how to build it.

4. There is mounting evidence that there is still huge amounts of water stored deep in the earths crystal lattices. As stated in New Scientist 1997. See L. Bergeron "Deep Waters" "You have oceans and oceans of water stored in the transition zone".

If you knew anything about math or geometry you would know that wouldn't even come close to being enough water, although I see that your favorite creation sites have jumped all over it....You'll have to try harder I'm afraid.

The ships of Zheng's armada were as astonishing as its reach. Some accounts claim that the great baochuan, or treasure ships, had nine masts on 400-foot-long (122-meter-long) decks. Just a claim...No evidence.

2. And about 2,258 years ago, Archimedes devised a water pump that could be operated by two men that could move massive amounts of water.

No, not really. The Archimedes screw was meant for agriculture, and it would take a heck of a lot more than two man power to keep a large wooden ship dry. I thought the flood happened about 4300 years ago, which would make the pump a bit late.

3. And 3400 years ago, the Hittites produced the best iron weapons in the world.

Granted, the Hitites made iron weapons, but they were the only culture at that time that did, and they kept their process secret until 1200 BC, long after the supposed flood


All of this could of been duplicated by Noah, and since it was God that directed the building of the Ark, I'm sure He would of given Noah the best information on how to build it.

Then why didn't God just poof it into existence?

4. There is mounting evidence that there is still huge amounts of water stored deep in the earths crystal lattices. As stated in New Scientist 1997. See L. Bergeron "Deep Waters" "You have oceans and oceans of water stored in the transition zone".
Ridiculous hypothesis.
