The water would still be covering the land.
If it was a world wide flood there would be no land above water, the water would still be there,
where would it go? where could it go?

Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
Anglagard,
I read your post.
Unless you specify a example you think is appropriate to refute the possibility of ther ever having been a global flood we're not getting anywhere.

Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
Correct, had it been the case - the waters would still be here. However, the universal flood did not happen on this planet.

Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
Lets start out small.
The geologic record contains layer after layer of sediments exhibiting mud or dessication cracks and paleosols (ancient soil horizons). How do you form those under water?

Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
I brought up specific examples of interbedded evaporites in the Castile and interbedded sand and mud in the Haymond Formations. I brought up aeolian deposits, volcanic deposits that can only be formed in air (slightly mistaken on breccia, looks like may also form in shallow water) and glacial deposits, all of which are found buried within supposed flood sediments.
But it is OK if you do not want to discuss such matters with my 24+ year-old memory of the geosciences (in a 49 year-old body) now that roxrkool is here.
Enjoy

What do YECs say about the height of antediluvian mountains? Were the Himalayas covered? Or were the Himalayas raised as part of the upheaval?
This YECer believes that the earth was relatively (I say 'relatively') smooth at the crust and surface with much lower mountains/hills and shallow smaller oceans, having a canopy atmosphere. My understanding is that the ocean bottom crusts are an average of 3 miles thick while the continents average around 20 miles thick. Logically the amount of water required to cover the hills would be far less than what would be required today. The weight of the water sank down the thin crusts into the molten core, pushing up the mountain ranges like the Himalayas as the tetonic plates gave way to cause extreme geographic upheavel in some areas and extreme depression in the weaker protions of the crust, et al.
The above is not falsifiable but a logical hypothesis to answer the question as to how a global flood might make the earth appear from a YEC perspective.

Re: Magic Water

Which is more dense, Buzsaw - water or rock? Will a mile of water balance a mile of rock?
The above is not falsifiable...
Oh yeah? It's already falsified.

Have you ever heard of the principle of isostasy? Put simply it means that light things float and heavy things sink.
Show me the math that says 15 cubits worth of water (density=1) would sink continental crust (density=2.7) into the mantle (density=3.5+).
Logical

Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
Joman
Unless you specify a example you think is appropriate to refute the possibility of there ever having been a global flood
Rainfall and expulsion of "waters of the deep" {something never specifically explained BTW}of the intensity required to produce a flood covering the entire earth is not possible due to the heat energy produced in the process which would effectively kill all life on earth excepting perhaps extremophiles. It is thus impossible to avoid the horrible consequence of such a flood which would steam alive any creatures in the environment.
The 100% humidity would also kill animals that do not sweat {like dogs} since they depend upon evaporation of moisture from their tongues in order to cool their core temperature.It would be impossible for them to survive a prolonged exposure to such conditions.
Ice worms
{Ice worm - Wikipedia} and {Page not found - Nichols College}
are incapable of surviving off glaciers in temperatures above a few degrees of the freezing point of water. In the absence of a refrigeration system{ not to mention their food source snow algae} it would be impossible to have them aboard an ark much less survive immersion in liquid water.
Need more examples? Just ask.

Re: Magic Water

then its not a logical hypothesis. if it's not falsifiable, its not a hypothesis. it would be a statement of faith, if anything.
fortunately for you, it is falsifiable, because we know how the hymalans were formed--not by your screwed up geoscience.
the geological upheavel/trauma is not cause by a massive depression of the tectonic plates, but by lateral, aka horizontal, movement of the plate. i'll let the other, more geologically inclined handle the rest of the misunderstandings.

Hi Shytot. We welcome you to EvC. As per my message 96, imo it would have broken up the tetonic plates sinking deep depressions in the thinner areas of earth's crust to create our deep oceans. Whereas about 70 percent of the earth's surface is ocean, likely before the flood it was maybe 20 or 30 percent with the water both subsurface and in the atmosphere to effect the flood. Of course a large amount of it would have evaporated to create the post flood atmosphere.

Wait I thought the mystical magical "vapor canopy" existed before the flood not after it. Hows does large amounts of evaporated water creat the atmosphere we see today?

Under what conditions would the water have evaporated to space? The boiling oceans caused by that absurd runaway tectonic, volcanic, and meteoric, activity?
Once again, light things float and heavy things sink. The only molecules that float away are H2 and He. H2O is too heavy to just decide on its own to achieve escape velocity.

OK folks. I'll let the scientific minds debate the science. I answered the question posed to YECers with my own views. Would an earth covering amount of rain crack and depress a three mile thick earth crust? Would it depend some on the unknown properties of what's down under the molten outer core?

No because - Light Things Float and Heavy Things Sink

Isostasy, it's simple physics.
