The empirical evidence is under 11k years of volcanic debris in Lake Van, Turkey. Find a rich TV Evangelist or a Scientist needing funding and tell them where to find empirical, physical evidence of life from another world. It's miles in diameter and worth more than it's weight in Gold.
If, however, you posit that The Bible is not inspired by God but solely the work of human beings writing from their own knowledge, then perhaps your description works. There may have been a massive flood such that horizon to horizon was water and people caught up in it believed that it was global. However, this would simply mean that the Bible describing a global flood was wrong. Not that we should interpret the Bible as both being infallible and actually meaning to describe a local flood.
The Bible was authored by God the Holy Spirit and totally misunderstood by the ancient Hebrews. The flood story shows that Adam's small Earth was only miles in diameter, and only 22.5 feet on top of its highest mountains. Gen 7:20 It had only 4 Rivers and they all came from one source. Gen 2:10 Texas alone has over 4k Rivers and none of them come from the same source. Sorry, but you have confused Adam's Earth with the present Earth, which will NEVER be destroyed in a Global Flood since it's the 3rd ROCK from the Sun and already covered with water. Amen?
Adam's world was made in the middle of water with water surrounding it on the 2nd Day. Gen 1:6-8
Our world was NOT made in water but in the big bang which happened on the 3rd Day. Gen 2:4
Adam's firmament/world was brought to our Universe and placed in Lake Van, Turkey 11k years ago. The firmament sank in the Lake releasing Humans (descendants of Adam) into our world. We did NOT evolve from Apes.
The first part is not incompatible with my post. I am not denying local floods.
I have no idea why you are going on about physical evidence of life from another world. Or the valuation of Lake Van in Turkey.
You seem to have misunderstood. I didn't ask for more bizarre interpretations of The Bible. I asked for objective verifiable evidence and cogent arguments for the bizarre interpretations of the Bible that you have already posted. Ditto.

I bolded and made green the verifiable and ONLY evidence you seem to have missed. Scripture AGREES that there was a beginning (Big Bang) of our Cosmos AND another Universe, made in the middle of Water. I suspect you are trying to dismiss God's Holy Word in favor of your own bias. Amen?

The Bible has the answer for every question & the solution for every problem.
Why would silicates form organic chemicals that are used by organisms? I dun geddit. Silicates are made of of silicon like silica ( quartz or quartzite)
Other minerals ? Well some of the most common elements in the universe are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen.
Why would I look in the Bible for that info?
I checked your references (yet again) and they do not support your claims.
It's interesting that you are trying to claim that The Bible predicted current scientific knowledge. Can you point to any example of people interpreting The Bible's creation story as a recognisable 'big bang' before scientists came up with the big bang theory? Any clear indication that religious people understood that the universe is expanding before scientists discovered this?
Dun - dun - duuuun
Ron and carol , humans have never evolved away from being apes , have never evolved away from being primates , have never evolved away from being mammals ,have never evolved away from being vertebrates, have never evolved away from being chordates, have never evolved away from being bilaterians, have never evolved away from being deuterostomes and have never evolved away from being multicellular eucaryotes
Interesting.
In my experience, if you know very little about science, one might be tempted to accept the claims of creationist propagandists, but if you know a lot of science, you see the claims for what they are.
But please, tell me about some anatomy that indicates creation.
Larger brain = smaller mouth
Smaller mouth = less room for teeth
It's not rocket science.
Actually yes, I did understand that humans were animals by the time I was 8 . If we’re mammals and vertebrates we have to be animals. I understood that other land vertebrates had the same basic anatomy because I saw pictures of forelimbs of several other vertebrates around age 10 . I also had pets :dogs, cats ,various rodents , birds, turtles, fish and snakes . And I’m houseplant crazy -the aroids (AKA related-to-philodendrons). I’ve always accepted evolution from an early age. And having it confirmed as an adult while getting a biology degree made it not much of a surprise . I was actually severely shocked that creationists still existed and that was around the mid 1980s when I first realized that they did. Severely shocked , as in mouth dropping open and hitting the floor, shockedWere you brain washed by the False ToE as a child?
so mammal have never evolved away from being reptiles since they evolved from reptiles?Ron and carol , humans have never evolved away from being apes , have never evolved away from being primates , have never evolved away from being mammals ,have never evolved away from being vertebrates, have never evolved away from being chordates, have never evolved away from being bilaterians, have never evolved away from being deuterostomes and have never evolved away from being multicellular eucaryotes
