Does this not this open a bigger problem? Noah manages to breath steam and avoids being cooked alive (during the flood), THEN a giant rock hits the earth...
yes but since a worldwide flood requires him to be able to resist the superheat that it would cause - it is slightly more than being a "pretty strong old guy"
But if we take the flood as a given - then there is really nothing to discuss - it's moot. If we want to claim that Noah and his family were not burnt to death then we really need the intervention of God - surely meaning this thread should be over in the faith section (or whatever we call it now).
