yes and yes
Who am I to think I know what God has done and what He means by what He says?
It is clear to me, that the flood is reported in a historical way, in the Bible; so it is not a parable. It is reported as history.
And God is able to do things like that.
Also, I see practical things. Before the flood, it had not rained, and it appears there was a worldwide rainforest, with much water up in the atmosphere. All this water came down as rain, during the flood rain. Plus, it says water came up out of the earth.
And if it is true that there is so much water under the earth, it could have gotten there, from the flood, I consider. "There could have been a practical thing > the earth was cooling, pressing out earth water into the flood." But also with the rain there was cooling, and possibly water from the rain then soaked into the earth. But God knows, and the Bible says the flood was an historical event, it looks like to me
I am "certain" that "evolving DNA" could not have produced us humans with the ability to think things like this up
In order for humans to evolve to imagine and believe a fairy-tale God and flood, I understand that we would need a very complicated combination of mutations all arriving at the same time and working together, in order to produce such a specific mental behavior.
But a lot of animals and humans died in that flood. How come there are not even millions of bones all over the place, still, from that? I consider that creatures ate all the bones; they have had time to do that. But - - - if a worldwide tidally shifting flood washed mud and rocks over a number of those bones, then later creatures could not get to them to eat them. So, this can be "why" ones have found bones even in great quantities.
