There physically isn't enough water on Earth to do it. And if somehow it happened anyway, 100,000 years would not suffice for its effects to be overcome.
Frankly, it's embarrassing to see adults seriously entertain the notion of a worldwide flood as a historical fact.
Not embarrassing at all. You assume the earth had the same characteristics before the flood as after. This is clearly could not be the case if one takes the Genesis account at face value, as Jesus Himself did.
Couldn't DNA testing of animals prove/disprove the theory that, say, all elephants are descended from a single pair just a few thousand years ago?
Am I wrong?
When you gaze into their eyes, you can see all the way to their toes.
Obviously, if there is an omnipotent being undertaking such an activity, he or she could create water from scratch, destroy it when done, etc., and contain or limit the consequences of the event in any way desired.
According to the Bible, these kids were stained with the original sin, and therefore bound for hell.
What a crock. "Original sin" is a man-made unbiblical concept. I challenge you to provide any Scripture that teaches damnation of children.

As I Christian, and a person that is somewhat familiar with world history and the background of the history recorded in Genesis in the Bible, I'm sorry to say you are almost too correct in your assessment. However, please do not assume that the Bible says this that and the other, when it does not, just because mal-informed Christians say it does. Looking at the original Hebrew manuscripts, it is *not* written there that the world is 6000 years old, just as it not there that the whole world as we know it was flooded. Only a poor scholar not versed in the language that it was written in as well as figures of speech would make such claims.
When it says 'land' in the manuscripts, and the King James translators put in 'world', why would one then assume that Moses meant the whole entire world from China to the Andes to Siberia to the Himalayas was flooded, when he had no knowledge of such places, when he only wrote that the whole 'land' where Noah lived was flooded. Help me out here, what does Occam's Razor have to say about this?
