Before Noah’s flood, there was a large amount of water above the atmosphere which may have taken the form a ring. There was also more water below the surface of the earth than there is now. That is where the water came from.

Before Noah’s flood, there were no seasons. During the flood, the axis of the earth changed. This resulted in water congregating in the polar ice caps. If the ice caps were to melt, the earth would flood again.

But God promised not to allow that to happen. He has reserved the final judgment of the earth to be by fire rather than flood.

All of this is in the Bible. (The polar ice caps are not specifically mentioned, but the gist of what I am saying is from the Bible.)

There’s plenty of water on earth to produce a worldwide deluge. One of the theories I’ve seen is runaway tectonic plate subduction. If the earth temporarily became pretty much a smooth sphere, no valleys and no mountains, the water would stand about one half mile deep all over the earth.

It requires some very specific conditions to form fossils. It usually requires that the organism be buried in some sort of flood/water sediment. Otherwise, if an organism dies in the open, they’ll just be scavenged or rot and decay to dust.

I’m not sure if this is what did happen, but if God can create the universe, all that is visible and invisible, He can certainly produce a little water at need and get rid of it after.

If God created the rains which caused the flood then it's reasonable to accept that he took the water away after he sent his message.............

Not to bust your chops too much, but that's liberal thinking...

The question supposes the earth is a static system, never changing, as opposed to a dynamic system...

Liberals think in terms of a everything is a static system, never changing unless they change it though leveraging power...

That's one reason they actually think us mere specks of humanity can change and control the global climate...

Which on it's face is completely absurd, but liberals believe lots of absurd things as long as it lets them acquire power

I might add there are several accounts of a world wide flood, biblical and other ancient writings..
