He's right, Drich. Gravity is a function of mass. The water of the flood came from the earth - it would have exactly the same mass whether in was in liquid or gaseous or solid form. Since the mass of the planet doesn't change, the overall gravitational attraction to another body (in this case, the atmosphere) doesn't change.
In fact, this scenario is even worse for your argument than you probably imagine.

how do you know it ALL came from the earth?
