Yes even the athiest scientist agree that there was once a flood that over came this earth, ofcourse they believe it was just nature with cause, but we are all smarter than that.

Yes there was a flood but it did not cover the earth, it was only in the area that Noah lived that's all, and to them it would seem like the whole world but it wasn't. One must remember there was not many people during Noah's time, and there is very little facts about his life other than the bible, archaeology give some info on the flood but even it is pretty sketchy.

Yes, absolutely. Islam tells in great detail about the flood of Noah (Nuh) Peace Be Upon Him.

No.

It's a fairy tale probably based on the one small flood in Egypt or the yearly flood of the Nile river.

Frankly, there isn't enough water on this planet (ice caps, etc included) for there to be a flood that extends to the height described in the bible.

Period.

Below is my response to a similar question posted by another questioner 4 months ago:

Question 3:

"God flooded the entire world until all dry land was gone. The only problem is that scientist know how much water is in the earth, on the earth's surface and in the atmosphere and it would take six times that much to flood the world to the top of the Himalayas. Also, with that much water in the atmosphere Noah and his family would have drowned by breathing in. Just wondering then how the whole global flood thing is possible."

Again, your logic is flawed. You give scientists more credibility that the Holy Scriptures when the physical world prove the Holy Scriptures.

Your statement:

"Also, with that much water in the atmosphere Noah and his family would have drowned by breathing in."

You and scientists assume that the earth was flooded by rain when in fact it was flooded by the aquifiers located beneath the ocean floor that God created to suck up the water in Genesis 1.9-10 when God said, "Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place."

Genesis 1:9, 10

"And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry [land] appear: and it was so. And God called the dry [land] Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that [it was] good."

When God flooded the earth, He reversed this process and caused the aquifiers to release the water that previously covered dry land in Genesis 1.9-10. These aquifiers were called "fountains of the great deep" in Genesis 7.10-12, "the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up."

Genesis 7.1-4; 10-12

"And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that [are] not clean by two, the male and his female. Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth. For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights."

Through "the fountains of the great deep", God flooded the earth from below, not from above. These fountains were giant geysers of water whose pressure was so great that they reshaped the earth around the entire planet.

Notice the giant continental ridge between the continents that surround the planet like the stitching on a baseball. That is where the fountains of the great deep are located. During the time of Noah, what is now North/South America and Africa was a single landmass. When God broke up the fountains of the great deep, all the water that God, "gathered together unto one place" (Genesis 1.10), was released from below the continent. The pressure from the "fountains" were so great that it literally split the landmass into continents that you now see (which were NOT the result of continental drift but the result of the great flood).

Those aquifiers still exist below the continental ridge.

Even if there was a flood, COULD you believe in a God that would kill every man, woman, child on the planet to satisfy his own psycho logic?
I can't

If you can squeeze all the land animals in the world inside a boat than I might.

Fairy tale.

There isnt enough oxygen on earth to combine with hydrogen to make enough water to cover the earth to a depth of 27000 feet, as the Flood is alleged to have done. It would have taken all the oxygen and then some to make that much water - leaving all life on earth with nothing to breath...

Yes and there is archaeological proof as well. some people on here are under the impression there is now evidence of it, but there is.Petrified insects, salt water fish found in clear water, rivers that used to flow one way now flow another. I could go on.I study in ancient history and biblical history.So if someone tells you there is no proof, they are not educated in this subject.
