" Please point out the contradiction? "

In the Bible, the flood is worldwide. God is wiping out all of humanity except Noah and his family. In your revised version, other people survive too, implying the flood was not as affective as God hoped.

" Do you even know why the flood? "

I know *why the flood*; do you? It was a punishment against all of humanity except Noah and his family. Not Noah and his family and some other people who somehow survived.

"How long exactly does it take from total and complete destruction for an olive leaf to be found?"

You said that it wasn't total destruction, just local. Why does the Bible say otherwise?

"What do you even care about the supposed plain meaning of scripture after all you are an evolutionists and doesn't even apply to you."

Because it means so much to you, and that makes it important to me. :) And you are trying to use it as evidence against Darwin, even though you have issues with the actual version in Genesis.

The words are WHOLE EARTH, and if you read more carefully you will find the flood was because of the Sons of God cohabiting with the daughters of Adam, specific peoples and their offspring were the purpose, NOT the peoples of the whole earth. Noah and his family were the only ones of Adam that had not blended shall we say.

"You said that it wasn't total destruction, just local. Why does the Bible say otherwise?"

Well now what is the plain simple meaning of finding an olive leaf within in a 150 day time frame? The olive leaf is not described as a miraculous growth, so where did if come from it all was completely destroy?

I have NO issues with what I am told, thing of it is I do not read over and ignore when what is said seems to contradict what is evidence. Such as the supposed claim this is a young 6,000 year old earth, the BIBLE nowhere makes such a claim, in fact tells the complete opposite.

The Bible is instruction, telling The Adam's story, his generations, to Christ and allllll the other peoples he and his generations came into contact with.

Now Christ Himself said that a sign of His return was the reenacting of the days of Noe (Noah). So it seems it might be important to find out exactly what Christ was referring to about the days of Noah that would be replayed. We are NOT there YET!!!!

I also am quite willing to accept IF indeed this WHOLE EARTH was flooded, I just do NOT hinge everything else I read upon that being exactly required considering all we are told about it. DNA shows there were more than just one family that survived, considering it was reason they were saved to begin with.

Noah was the continuation of the SEED LINE to CHRIST, and there was not going to be any polluted seed through that line, which is the very KEY that makes evolution a LIE.
