I doubt everything got wiped out. some things had to survive, or we would not be here. New life could not have developed on earth after the oxygenation event, so if everything got wiped out, that would be it.
Hey, couldn't scientists easily recreate the beginning of life on earth in a controlled environment? Don't we know all the necessary conditions? A Christian controlled senate wouldn't pay for it, but fuck that. If it can be done, I'd give my last dollar to see it happen.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
