This is what really disturbs me about people who stick to this narrative. They just can't wrap their head around the fact that the deluge never occurred, anywhere. It's not an issue of scale. Sure, a worldwide flood is a little bit more ridiculous than some regional flood that fits the description - but neither are in evidence - because neither are possible. On the one hand you have flying dolphins with lasers....and on the other hand you have flying dolphins.
Lemme ask you this. Why do you need this narrative to be factual? Why? What theology is affected? None. Did christ make a promise - but only so long as there was a flood? No.
Meh, I don't get it. Look, pick any spot you like, wherever you want there to have been some godly flood. We'll grab some surveys, calculate the water carrying capacity of the soil - determine the rate the rain would have needed to fall - the forces involved in that sort of rainfall, the effects of that rain and those forces...and finally we'll be able to tell you exactly what sort of evidence you'd be looking for (hint:cataclysmic destruction on a nearly unimaginable scale). This stuff isn't arcanum - it's just math. We can do it together...like buddies.....it'll be fun.....
