Maybe you should ask one of your more intelligent peers (as if there are any among creationists) what would happen to volume and pressure of the atmosphere, if it were pushed out by this alleged 30K foot rise in sea level?
What makes you think what constitutes as atmosphere several thousand years ago is what we know the atmospheric make up to be now?
Or is it your "belief" that the earth's atmosphere has always been at it's current concentrations and density?
Of course it is known, by the use of science, not ancient mythological texts, that the atmosphere has changed quite drastically over the earth's existence.
But it has not changed that much over the last several thousand years. Not enough to account for what you are suggesting, that's for sure.
If so, it would have been so dense before the 30K level of sea rise, that life on earth before the 30K sea level rise, would have been drastically different. As would have been the weather and the amount of sunlight reaching the surface. In other words, the earth would not have resembled anything like it actually did for thousands of years.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
