Clever only if one is part of sowing the seeds of deception.... My KJV reads Genesis 1:2 And the earth *was* without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
This is at least a thousand years before the Heavenly Father had to rid His earth of the co-mingling of heavenly bodies with the daughters of 'the' Adam. As per Genesis 6.
And Jeremiah recounts this flood that took place in Genesis 1:2, in Jeremiah 4:22-26, where the Heavenly Father says His people are foolish and 'sottish' which means stupid because thy have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge...
Would you like to chat more about who the deceivers are???

I am sorry, my friend, but there are no geological markers of a “worldwide flood.”
Floods in many places have been recorded (and thus projected to the entire world by primitive cultures). And there may have been one where Noah and family resided.
But even if you take the Old Testament literally, God is reluctant to mess with he Universe He created. He bent the rules from time to time to further His Plan, but there was always a lesson to be taken to heart by Hos Children.
I am not going to tell God “Hey! You can’t mess with Your Rules!” But I can echo what I believe to be His Response: “I gave you this Universe — discover it, document it, I Promise I won’t arbitrarily change the rules you discern.”

No, I don’t think he did. He was describing the situation in early 6th century B.C. Israel (Judah plus the northern kingdom’s territories that had recently come under Jerusalem’s rule in the reign of Josiah) as being like that of the disorder and emptiness of the world at its creation.
Let me guess: LDS?
