You've got to be kidding me. The fact that there is no evidence of such a worldwide flood became obvious to Christians over 150 years ago. Note that the geologists at the time were nearly all 100% bible-believing Christians who fully believed the flood, and in light of the evidence, had to conclude that the flood of Noah must not have left any evidence. Perhaps the most famous realization was that of Sedgewick, who some consider the greatest geologist of all time, who was a solid Christian who finally stopped denying the evidence that no such flood ever happened.
Since then, literally mountains of evidence have confirmed that Noah's flood never literally happened.
An extensive look at this time, when geologists realized that the flood didn't happen, is here:

By 1840, however, no respected geologist continued to propose that the flood was a major factor in the history of the earth.
Oh, and for the main topic - this quote from the very person who started the protestant reformation says a lot:

"Reason must be deluded, blinded, and destroyed. Faith must trample underfoot all reason, sense, and understanding... know nothing but the word of God."- Martin Luther
