I never said that the waters carved out oceans or pushed up mountains,

You saying that all that mythology could have been explained by science. You then go and start spouting a bunch of pseudoscience and poorly understood facts to explain it away. And before you complain that I accepted the story as true in the OP and am now complaining it's false: I accepted it as true for sake of argument given that God would have had to have used [something] to get the flood to happen as described and for there to be no evidence of it now.

You did say the water carved out the oceans, because you asserted that all the water is still here, and that the oceans are now deeper. You asked why Everest would have been that tall back then. If not the flood, did something else push it up? What? Give evidence, please.

Day X = no where for the dove to land. Day X + 7 = dove finds a leaf. None of the rest of the passages matter for the time line.

What about ancient Hebrew language changes this? Site the reasons for your assertion.

You ask for evidence, yet you haven't given one scientific fact to discredit what I've stated.
As for finding the leaf, I answered that possibility in a earlier post, I'll state it again, why did the dove have to go in the direction of the tree the first time out. The scripture doesn't say the dove lit on anything to get the leaf, what makes you think the dove couldn't hover at the very small tree and pull the leaf from the tree. Have you ever watched a dove city boy, they are able to hover with great skill.
After the dove returned with the leaf the scriptures say it took 1 month and 17 days for the land to become dry, it was at this time that God told Noah to release the animals not when the dove returned with the leaf. Want to take a guess at why, no, I thought so, could it have been to muddy and silty for the animals at the time of the doves return with the leaf.

That might be true, it's for sure you can't reason a better answer.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
