“Does not matter what they believed....it ain’t solid....”
There is some evidence suggesting that there was a “solid” sphere surrounding the earth from Adam to Noah. This was ice, according to the suggestion, and this is where the water for 40 days of rain came from during Noah’s flood. The suggestion is that a “fly-by”, asteroid for instance, broke the ice and as it began to fall to earth, provided the deluge of water.
There is evidence that atomospheric pressure was double or more what it is today. There is also evidence that oxygen in the atmosphere was 30+ percent. This could explain the long life before the flood. Before sin came in man did not face death, and this could have been a part of God’s plan to make life without death possible. The ice shield would also protect from harmful rays from the sun. All of this would equate to a true green-house effect.
