Confirms Dr. Walt Brown’s hydroplate theory for the flood. Great to see!
True science confirms the Bible. True science and the Bible are friends, not enemies.
The bible says it rained. The movie Noah agrees with you. Credit to the movie?
Read it closely - the fountains of the deep were opened, shooting massive amounts of water into the atmosphere, whence it fell as rain. It had not rained previously, which is why the rainbow had not been seen before.
Actually, both.
Genesis 7:
11In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
I think there was some kind of water in the atmosphere, too. Kept the earth “moist” and protected the planet from solar radiation - could account for the long lives of people during the time. Less radiation, less nuclear degradation.
Possibly. I think there was a pretty think atmosphere made up heavily of water vapor. I’ll find the verse, but it did exist before the flood.
I wonder if tha pertains to oil too?
I wonder if tha pertains to oil too?
It has always been my belief, that the heavy rains and flooding, loosened all of the trees and plant life from the soil, such that, when the waters ‘receded’, they collected in the lowest parts of the earth. The subsequent pressure is what produced Petroleum. It is an established fact, that plant material, under pressure, result in OIL !
You don’t know how right you are,
As I type this, freshly produced crude oil is oozing out at the bottom of the deepest portions of the oceans. So oil is being produced daily from the vast amount of pressure at the depths of the sea.
Something like this may have made a difference, as well. It sure explains a lot. In any event, it’s really interesting.

If God wants a "fountain of the great deep", he will make one. There is no need for there to be an ocean under the crust.
People need to read the source papers before agreeing to stuff like this.
Oil has been found in “ancient” city dumps... time of Christ city dumps, era. Being produced by the yuck being dumped in there, waste, etc, and then over centuries being built on top of.
And, I always felt that the oil post flood came, similar to your descriptions, of the vast plant and animal life lost during the time. And if these under crust water reserves emptied, there was probably a reverse suction that pulled some of that material down.

Well actually, that might not be true.
Well actually, that might not be true.
And, actually, it might BE true...
Amen to that. We can trust that His word is the truth.
Wasn’t it called a water canopy, or possibly just a canopy? I know I’ve heard that term before in connection with the flood account.
