Gentlemen, I come at you again with yet another lofty, Biblical question.
Was the Flood global, as the Good Book says, or was it local, like all these Discovery Channel PBS pseudo-documentaries say?
I, myself, believe it was global. I believe that there is sufficient geological evidence to support the notion of a world-wide catastrophy.
I am basing this thread on the assumption that there was, indeed, a flood, since most of the world's cultures have a flood story of one sort or another. So whether it did or didn't happen is not the question here. The debate is about the magnitude of the flood.
