I'm afraid your account displays more fantasy physics than a Bugs Bunny cartoon:

1) Have you calculated how many millions of cubic miles of water you are talking about? All of which leaped to the earths surface, then obligingly disappeared by some unknown mechanism?
2) Do you understand capillary action, and how hard it is to squeeze water out of sedimentary rocks?
2) This volume of water flooded the land, yet the vast majority of the Earth's surface shows no trace of this flooding?
3) This volume of water somehow caused so little chemical disruption that the saltwater and freshwater fish were not killed in the process.
(Why do I even bother...?)

I don’t know, you’re the genius, why do you bother?

You might have noticed that I did calculate the volume of water, then I took off a healthy amount just for the hell of it, and STILL pronounced what was left an staggering amount.

Your idea that water MUST be in sedimentary rock is your own and welcome to it.

Your claim that you know infallibly what evidence must be left after a one of a kind instantaneous worldwide flood and withdrawal, and that the evidence of flooding at the same time around the world doesn’t count doen’t particularly impress me.

In the matter of the withdrawal, if the water was inside the earth and it was somehow expelled then equal and opposite reaction would come into play as the scientists entertaining the theory of water coming from the earth have pointed out.

As far as “chemical disruption”: You have noticed some shortage of massive reserves of salt on the earth? And further, you figured out the sea presently maintains its solution? You must since you are commenting that it was thrown out of whack. I love how ernest guys like you are in refuting Biblical claims. The Noah story involves a 600 something year old guy told by The Invisible Author of all things physical and Time Itself that he must build a boat of specific and not terribly large size and load it with everything and wait out the cataclysm, and you list 3 numbered things that make it all a bit iffy for you. Thanks, man. But I'm betting you could come up with more.
