My general response to the "whole earth vs just the neighborhood" flood question is, if it was just the neighborhood, why didn't God just tell Noah to move?

After glancing at the rest, I have to say that I don't quite follow his point.

God did tell Noah to move - on an Ark. Remember, they didn't have planes in those days, so they couldn't get very far.

...why didn't God just tell Noah to move?

LOL...that sure was a lot of work building the ark and loading all those animals if the flood was really only a lake!
