Yes, R…this is how things work around here. Play silly games, win silly prizes.
The flood never happened. End of. If this is a problem for the god you believe in then the god you believe in doesn’t exist.
Good….work.

Quote:welcome to the conversation. Your concerns were already addressed in post 217:
I'm not new and never actually addressed anything let alone in post 217.
Quote:Just bear with me.
Let's say the world today experiences a pole reversal and it causes a massive global tsunami it wipes out everything, and everyone except those who had the foresight to bunker down like in the Colorado's or Norway's doomsday vault Which is essentially what the ark is (A repository of seed and I think even animal embryos.. what Noah's story does. Now lets say it takes 6000 years for humanity and the world to recover to the same point (more or less) to where the world is now. What indicators do you think would exist of us, and the flood 6000 years into our future? Would anything exist but a tale of a great flood that almost every single civilization who can be traced back to that period one way or another all have in common?
I already read your last scenario and none of this refutes my point nor bolsters yours. I have no reason to assume a worldwide flood. I have every reason to entertain the idea of this being an exaggerated story about local floods as it is a thing that actually happens.
Quote:Again this is an example of the need for establishing what the evidence would in fact look like/Could possibly exist, BEFORE insisting/demanding that evidence can be only presented through a specific confirmation bias.
No this is an example of you making a claim and then failing to substantiate it and me having an explanation that doesn't require your claim to work.
Quote:It is unrealistic to demand that specific evidence be provided, if none is available or could not possibly exist. which is what makes such an unreasonable demand a confirmation bias.
No, it's not unrealistic in the slightest. I have no reason to assume or explain and every reason to entertain mine.
Quote:Meaning with in the frame work of a great global flood nothing could have survived but exactly what we have now. 700+ civilization who can trace themselves back to the point where these stories were told and they all share the common key points of this story.
A framework I have no reason to accept as opposed to the explanation I just gave... 
So no you didn't really address anything at all

or you can google Joe rogan evidence world wide flood.
Joe has a published geologist on that shows conclusive evidence of a world wide flood.

did Noah know that plants breathed? did God send any plants to Noah one male one female? Did god have plants march onto the ark? As breathing was only one requirement of getting on the ark.
It's also a requirement for surviving a devasting global flood. All that pretzel logic to explain how the animals survived, but you're still left with 'God magicked it that way' to explain the survival of the land plants.

When 700 hundred culture from all over the world all retain and retake a singular narrative it become more than just a camp fire story.
Couldn't have anything to do with the fact most cultures live near bodies of water and thus would experience floods couldn't have anything to do with the fact saviour myths are a common motif across pretty much every culture. No what you are providing is camp fire tales as evidence which it is not.
There's also the issue of marine fossils on mountain tops. If you don't know those mountains were once underwater and rose through formaton over millions of years; that there once was a flood up to the mountaintops is a reasonable guess. There are whale fossils in the Andes.
