Mars shows evidence of such tidal attraction. The rest is way over on the speculation side of the scale.

Is this Wayne McKellips guy on CRACK? I do believe that a Great Flood occurred sometime in the past. There is credible archeological evidence in the Black Sea area. But to claim that Mars caused the flood??? There is no way that Mars was ever in Earth orbit or anywhere near the Earth during the solar system's 4 to 5 billion year history, especially this recently. Just imagine how bright it would be in the night sky. And it would cause more than tidal floods.

Wow, never seen such a steaming pile of BS. This guy should try doing the math before posting his theory. But that would disprove his wacked-out ideas...too bad. I love it when these wackos attempt to prove their theory, not by just showing us the simple proof for it, but by listing a whole lotta "facts", most of which are completely irrelevant, in the hope that we'll be so overwhelmed by his intellectual fortitude that we'll buy into his theory.

It is easier for God to flood the whole earth, just like He said, than it would be for Him to lie about what He did. Nothing is impossible to God, except to lie to His people.

Oooooooooo....you are gonna get FLAMED for this!!!!

If it'll make you feel any better, I've always been a proponent of a localized (to that region), massive, catastrophic flood which caused unthinkable devastation to the local inhabitants' known world.

The known world was extremely small then.

There are two theories that I personally lean toward: either a massive, post Ice Age "flush" as happened in North America, most likely combined with a catastrophic vulcanic eruption.

Of course, my reasoning is flawed for believing in Ice Ages to begin with. <G>

If I have the story straight, four guys cut down thousands of trees, milled the lumber, and built a ship the size of an ocean liner, all by hand. Although there is no indication that they were kings or rich merchants, they were also able to come up with enough fodder to stock a 40 day voyage for two of every kind of animal in the world. These animals in their tens of thousands somehow managed to arrive at the ship, across oceans and continents full of predators. It then rained for 40 days and 40 nights, and hard enough to raise the sea level almost 30,000 feet above where it is now. Then all this water "subsided" somewhere and the animals went home. Is that about right?

I knew this was mostly hokum when I saw "Bolovia" [sic] spelled that way consistently --time after time-- throughout this article.
