Given the biblical texts, which express the nature of creation and Who is behind it, my cosmology allows me to expect an ordered world, wherein any exception may occur at any time. Reality from my perspective has been in perfect accord with the same. The biblical texts are my starting point and present a reasonable foundation upon which to do science. Are you willing to reject all science done by those who use the biblical texts as a starting point?
Those “exceptions” happen extremely rarely, like God prefers not to interfere with the Order He set up from the beginning.
It also seems that those exceptions caused the least scope of disruption as possible in order to accomplish His ends for the people He loves.
That being said, The Flood was MASSIVE.
“Are you willing to reject all science done by those who use the biblical texts as a starting point?”
As a starting point, perhaps but not as a conclusion. If the Bible mentions a person or a place, I’d certainly look for evidence of them using Biblical accounts. If the Bible says Sodom was consumed in fire and brimstone, I’ll look for a volcano to have delivered the ash and lava.
I’m certainly not comfortable as a critic of the Bible as my values and beliefs come from it. I don’t use it as a “how to” guide for the manufacture of semiconductors.
