He never brought a flood in the first place. We know this because His predictable and uniform creation that allows us to understand our world would show evidence of such a flood. Which it does not. Is His creation only uniform and predictable when it serves your beliefs, and then, not so much, when it conflicts with them? Is this respectful?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Why would you deny the overwhelming evidence for the flood all around you? Oh yeah, because you suppress the truth in unrighteousness.

Oh, there's evidence to deny? Lets see it so I can get on with unrighteously denying it.

Nope, no more free-bees. Once you answer my question about induction I will continue to answer your questions, I am tired of granting you courtesy you do not grant others.

You should of course already know this, if you leverage this argument often. How this is an issue for me remains a mystery. You're arguing with yourself again.

You are such a poser, a Wikipedia article on the problem of induction? Seriously? I know what the problem is, I want to know how you justify your inductive beliefs it in your mind, or if you just believe in the principle of induction on blind faith.

I think your reading too much into "my inductive beliefs". There are many laws that I find difficult to grasp, indeed counter-intuitive. I leverage the things that are based upon these laws because they work. That's really the end of it for me. If you have a theory, I'm going to ask for evidence. If you, for example, were to say that the laws of physics have changed post flood. I would ask for evidence. There is currently a great deal of evidence that the laws of physics have not changed for as far back as we can look. If satellites fall out of the sky tomorrow perhaps your question would mean something to me, but until you provide evidence it does not. If we run an experiment today, that gave provisional certainty to a natural law 100 years ago, and the results were different, we would have to address that wouldn't we? Do you have any suggestions?
A poser....lol. That's a late 90's highschool thing isn't it?

Well at least I have managed to get what somewhat resembles a response to my question out of you, so I thank you for that.  However, just saying, “I assume it because it works” is begging the question because it banks on the premise “What has worked in the past will continue to work in the future.” This of course is the very belief you are trying to justify. You are free to believe the forces that uphold creation in the future will resemble the ones observed in the past, but you believe this despite the fact there is no evidence or proof you can use to justify this belief.
