I know creationists are not the brightest stars in the firmament, but even they must be able to see a problem with that.
They had every reason to get it right. And what does "at the time" mean? The ESV in the twenty first century, or the Geneva Bible in the sixteenth?

As I said, they have painted themselves into a corner.
Um, if the whole Earth was flooded, the seas were already at their nor mal level, plus the depth of flood water of top of that, so how did the flood water manage to return into the sea?
There are plenty of ways God could have orchestrated the Flood.Um, if the whole Earth was flooded, the seas were already at their nor mal level, plus the depth of flood water of top of that, so how did the flood water manage to return into the sea?
So even conservatives are determined to stick with a mistranslation?
There are so many ways He could have done it, I'm sure unbelievers will like one of them!Raise the ocean floor just a little and the whole inhabited earth would flood. Lower it and the water returns.
There are plenty of ways God could have orchestrated the Flood.
One way I put forth years ago is that He could have gently squeezed the sides of the earth until the waters covered the land.
Like putting water into a rubber bowl and squeezing it.

How do you think the Israelites crossed the Red Sea after God parted the waters?So what would you leave under the raised ocean floor? A vacuum? If so, the pressure of the water would have returned it to its previous state.
Ya ... except they have nail scars in them now.So God has got a physical pair of hands now.

Ya ... it's much easier to scratch yourself nuts and talk like a scientist, isn't it?Those of us who are not YECs will never be connoisseurs of arrant nonsense.

That's what I said: talk like a scientist.Meaningless blather.

YECs don't join Christian websites to ask how the Flood was orchestrated; and I'm sure they sleep like a baby.
Scientists, on the other hand, can't even answer simple challenge questions; mostly because they can't understand them.
