And this is my answer?
OK, First, I'd like to say, you shouldn't be answering these questions anyway because they were posed to the person who posted this thread. He/she has chosen not to address this issue although it is one of the very first assertions made in the article I'm supposed to take seriously. The poster wants to jump straight to the carbon dating part of the article when I'm still trying to work out the logical ramifications of the first few sentences.
But back to the end argument. I'm supposed to just take this as an answer and end inquiry into the matter? Why not just provide the easy answers if the flood makes so much sense? That would be fairly easy to demonstrate, it seems to me, if that's the way it happened. We have an eyewitness account, apparantly, with all the relevent details. It shouldn't be so hard to put forth an explanation.
