"...or there was this REALLY BIG flood !"


Which there obviously wasn't since there's not enough water on Earth now to cover the planet in a flood. Even if there had been the amount of rainfall necessary for a flood, the resulting atmospheric pressure from all that rain would've been far too much for any surface life to have survived, Noah included.

It's a nice story for the kids that doesn't hold water when looked at through the eyes of elementary science. Since mass is neither created nor destroyed, what happened to all that water?

Really? So you've checked this out?

Good, I have a few questions, which I'm sure you can answer.

On average, at any given time, how many millions of gallons of water are in clouds floating over the earth?

How many millions of gallons of water make up the ice at each of the poles?

How many millions of gallons of water are sitting elsewhere across the world in snowcapped peaks, etc.?

How many millions of gallons of water are in underground bodies of water?
