"Genesis says that the flood covered the mountains"

No, it says hills. The very big mountains rose up during the massive flood upheaval. You consistently ignore the bulk of important material and nitpick little things, twisting words to suit yourself.

No, it says hills. The very big mountains rose up during the massive flood upheaval. You consistently ignore the bulk of important material and nitpick little things, twisting words to suit yourself.

They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered. (Genesis 7:19)

הרים הגבהים -- haharyim hagaboayim -- the high mountains 

root word  גבה, meaning:

1) high, exalted

   a) high, tall

   b) high (in position)

   c) proud, haughty

2) loftiness

 

root word הר meaning:

1) hill, mountain, hill country, mount

 

I'm going to the actual meaning of words in the Bible. Where have I twisted them?

I took a year of Hebrew and have studied it on my own since. I'm not fluent or even conversant, but I can find my way around. Have you taken Hebrew?

Where in the Bible does it say that the very big mountains arose during the flood? What is the logic behind flood --> mountains? Why are the Appalachian mountains eroded while the Himalayan mountains are fresh, uneroded (80 million years old) and continue to rise? What are your sources for your claim?

What's the bulk of important material that I'm ignoring? The little things are important -- you said that the Hebrew meant "hills" and I've shown you that it means "high mountains."

If you're going to argue this, why don't you know your Bible better?
