Genesis 9
13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."
17 So God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth."
It's the Word of God.

All churches teach it. Yes God did Promise Not to flood the entire earth again in Genesis 9: 15-16, 2nd Peter 3...next time

Well, it's in the bible (in Genesis 9:12-17): "God further said, "This is the sign that I set for the covenant between Me and you and every living creature with you, for all ages to come. I have set My bow in the clouds, and it shall serve as a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. When I bring clouds over the earth, and the bow appears in the clouds, I will remember My covenant between Me and you and every living creature among all flesh, so that the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh that is on earth. That," God said to Noah, "shall be the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth."
Why shouldn't they teach it? I believe in it allegorically, and they may believe in it more literally, but either way, it's in the Bible/Torah, so why leave it out?

Well why not, if they believe the bible?
It's there in Genesis 9.
Nothing about not destroying the earth by *fire*, though.
