"Fountains of the deep" is not a rainstorm. The land had upheavals and buried the surface, along with everything on it. Just go dig somewhere and you will find them, like on top of mountains. That is why the animals were preserved as fossils and didn't rot away like the evolution theory would suggest. Go find an armadillo dead on the side of the road and go back in a few weeks. It will be gone. Find another and bury it under tons of mud. It will still be there if and when you decide to go dig for it.
Re read the Bible and this time don't let your pre conceived children stories get in the way of reading what the text actually says. Also, as an aside, look up the name Peleg in Genesis ( I think it's in chpt 6) and it will talk about the continent's splitting. I believe science calls it Pangea or something like that. This explains the Mastodons freezing standing up with fresh buttercups in their bellies. Maybe the poles reversed in one day?

First of all, the "windows of heaven" are clearly a rainstorm. Second, the "fountains of the deep" simply refers to the oceans, as is quite clear in the other places where the Old Testament uses that phrase.

Just out of idle curiosity, what exactly is it that you think explains the frozen mastodons? I'll grant you that the verse about Shem's heirs dividing up land somehow refers to plate tectonics. Sure, whatever. But what mental acrobatics take you from there to the frozen mastodons, and how does that segue in with magnetic pole reversals?
