The obvious answer is that there was no flood.
The flood supporting arguement is that a god (Enil, Yaweh etc) did it with magic that did not leave a trace anywhere.

There is no other answer the fundy can give you, I'm afraid. It will always boil down to 'magic'.

The thing is that the god of the gaps is getting less and less powerful with every inch of progress we make.
The defence often is that science is infact wrong to rule out a supernatural cause.
Now, you and I would perhaps scoff at such a notion but there are a great many people who still believe tha magic is real.
Go figure.

Re: Simple hydrostatics is the answer.
Dude, how can that make sense?
Rocks don't have souls; it's not like they are shoes or boots.
It has to have been magic. Anything else is just crazy talk.

Re: Simple hydrostatics is the answer.
The thing is mate that you won't get an answer that makes any sense unless you are a fully paid up fundy and the fundy answers colapse(spell?) like a house of cards.

Limestone is formed in a marine environment. The flood happened long before the pyramids were built.
You do realise that the formation times are greater than 6000 years, don't you?

So evidently you don't know the time scales involved.
Keep up, mate.
