Did the Flood really happen?

Coastal reef can be counted as a part of the continent IF it eventually becomes a limestone strata. Overall, carbonate rock is not really a permanent residence of a continent.

This is a very ignorant statement.

In general, the smaller the continent, the lower (above the sea level) the continent. Some oceanic islands may look like exceptions. But an oceanic island is not a continent.The lower the continent, the easier to get overrun by seawater. Edited by Juvenissun, : No reason given.

Indeed.What if the highest mountain on the earth was not that high (in contrast to the amount of water "suddenly" increased on the earth?) For example, the highest peak was 1000 feet and the seawater suddendly increased 1100 feet deep?See, this would be related to the issue on the source of sea water.

Where is your question?
Do you know ask a right question is more difficult than answer a hard question? So far, I have answered all your questions.

Do not ask so fast about evidence. It is not good.
We should have a solid model. Then any evidence would become valuable.
Do you understand my model of the global flood? If you do, then we can talk about evidence.

Nice to know you are a faithful. I am looking forward to talk to you on Faith and Belief issues somewhere else. You may guide me to where it is. I don't have enough time to explore the site yet.This is the science forum, in particular, the forum about Noah's Flood. To me, it is a fascinating knowledge in science as well as in faith. I try to reason to unfaithful on science ONLY. I assume I know everything they know about this issue. I am only trying to see who care to ask thoughtful questions and who really cares to reason. At this stage, nothing about faith is needed. Faith is something needed beyond science. So far, science only is good enough.

He is very wrong. Science only gets QUESTIONS.

Oil is a BIG question.
Of course, you can just use it without asking anything.

We can have many theoretical models.The global flood could start with a theoretical model.

That is about (400 miles)^3 of water. That is not much if you consider how much the current ocean water is.

Impractical thought. Depositon/erosion of sediments and continental drift are in two different time scale.

To see the effect on outcrop and map scale, one is counted 10^5 years and one is in 10^8 years. So, we are not going to see the effect of deposition/erosion on map scale.What kind of evidence you expect to see about the global flood? Deposition? Erosion? Folded mountain? Earthquake? or something?

Good example. If you work in your office and people ask you what is the evidence that you believe your home is still there? How do you answer?Do you take: "I don't see any news on TV which reported otherwise" as a good evidence? Is there a better evidence for that? Or, you rather say: I "believe" it is still there.Lesson: Ask: "Evidence?" is a coward response. It means that you surrendered in the argument.

Oil is a BIG problem. I do have questions. Who can help?
