That would imply that G-d created it and set it on its cataclysmic journey many years before there was a sin to punish.

The God of the Biblical flood is all-knowing, and exists outside of time. So, there is no "before," other than from our own, linear, historical perspective, which even science is beginning to admit is more akin to an illusion.

You have no idea how many times I have tried to explain that to believers and non-believers alike, only to meet with stony stares and non-sequitur responses.
