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.
Math or Geometry? Please, could you show me the formula that would rule out what I have stated? And could you pass that on to New Scientist magazine, they must not be aware of your most recent findings? LOL
Now tell me, did you do core sampling throughout the entire earth before you came to your conclusion. Or did you use penetration radar to determin the earths density?

The new scientists magazine doesn't say the flood happened(sneaky that you try to make it sounds like they do) and without taking a calculator I can say that sanspeur is right. Did you suddenly forget that you told us the earth was covered by around 6 miles? Do you know how much water in the world we have calculated there is? Around 344 million cubic miles. This includes seawater, underground deposits(including those you mentioned), polar ice caps, atmospheric moisture and living things. How much does that amount up to? A sphere of around 1400km in diameter.
You know what else is interesting? The water present on earth 4000 years ago was the same or less than that of today. 1.5 times the world's water is unnacounted for and "it magically disappeared into the ground" might have been a good excuse for the people back but not for us now. Why are you trying so hard to convince us the flood myth didn't involve magic? If you remove all the things which you need to take on faith then you are also removing the need for god's involvement in it all.

There is no belief or allowance for the supernatural in your assessment. God can make and evaporate at will. Remember He created all things... you can't explain the supernatural powers of God away. He is, and has all power.
Ahh...The God did it all explanation...If everybody believed that we'd still be living in the dark ages and waiting for God to create all of the things science has given us over the ages. I mean why should man even try to improve life when we have no say in it at all....Just wait for God to do it.
I know this is a silly question but........since the worlds salt water and fresh water was combined, how did them critters survive? You know, salt water creatures, fresh water creatures in the same water. Then when the waters receded, how did the waters come to get back to being separated?

Of course not. Going to anyone and trying to convince them by saying "it all happened by magic" will get you nowhere. That is why people like Nikk or Campbell come up with an endless stream of apologetics in an attempt to hide the magic and make it seem more plausible. At one point though one must admit that there are miracles in Dr Noah's Myth and that not everything depicted in the genesis 6 will have a natural explanation.
This is where people have to accept that Dr Noah's Myth is not as believable to others as it is to them and hopefully they can learn to live with the fact that not everyone, even within Christianity, will take this story as history.

You see, your ideas are already catching on and it's only a matter of time until the creationists start picking up on it. I'm glad you found this forum, you seem to have a sense of humor and your posts are enjoyable.

What a lovely thing to say! thankyou and I'm glad my posts are being taken as they are intended...with humoUr.
I love it. Maybe in the new new international 2112 version of the bible, all references to Noah will have him as doctor or better yet: Dr N
