The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were covered.
(Genesis 7:20) NKJV
Mount Everest formed AFTER Noah’s flood, and there was enough water in the great deep to flood the Earth 1,200 km deep. 15 cubits was when the crew of the ark stopped taking soundings.
The waters of the great deep flooded the Earth to a depth that may be calculated by adding its volume to the volume of the pre-flood Earth, and calculating the radius for a sphere of this volume.
We all have the same evidence. Our choice of paradigm determines what we think it’s evidence of.
– Matty’s Razor
Factor | Symbol | Value m3 |
Volume of Earth on the 3rd day | t | 1.88E+12 |
Volume of water in the great deep | w | 1.06E+12 |
Total volume | t+w | 2.94E+12 |
A volume of 2.94E+12 m3 corresponds to a sphere of radius 8,883 km. If the diameter of the pre-flood Earth was 7,653 km, then the waters of the great deep alone would have flooded the Earth to a depth of 1,230 km. That doesn’t include the waters above the firmament.
What can we say to the atheist science trolls (ASTs) who want to use 19th Century Uniformitarianism to say that there isn’t enough water on the Earth to flood it higher than Mt. Everest? This is the 21st Century, go find something else to do because you’re making fools of yourselves.
