Since the Bible states that the waters receded, it is fair to ask to where. I mean no disrespect, but 12,000 feet of water over the entire globe is more water than what is currently in the oceans. It had to go somewhere. Maybe the Lord has a tremendous water park, but I’d doubt he’d need our water.
MY BS METER READS %100 ON THIS ARK STORY. JUST LIKE ALL THE REST OF THEM PURE BS.
I don’t believe there actually ever was a real ark .
The Biblical account specifically mentions fissuring of “the fountains of the great deep.” There is a possibility that much of the water of the flood was a temporary, forced extrusion of subterranean water. In any event, owing to tidal distributions and the probability of unusual seismic activity, it would simply not be necessary for the entire globe to be uniformly, statically immersed just to set one boat relatively high on one mountain.
The Bible does mention the fountains of the deep.
Also, the water cycle began at that time, according to Scripture. So presumably much of the water is vapor in the air.
Also perhaps the poles, frozen.
