It seems as though scientists have discovered a large ocean of water inside of the earths crust. Noah's ark anyone?

My only purpose in posting this thread was to point out that science continues to find water sources within our own planet. There is no question that if the account of Noah's ark occured it occured via supernatural forces. The Bible only says that water fell from above and came up from the fountains of the deep. I am only pointing out that perhaps there is enough existing water in and on and above the planet earth to do the job as previously thought impossible.

Originally posted by whodeyIf you believe in supernatural forces then surely you don't need there to be enough existing water on and above the planet for God to have caused the flood, he could have just made it appear and disappear.

Originally posted by whodeyAnd I'm telling you that even if the entire Earth was 15% water that still wouldn't be enough to cover the tallest mountain plus a few extra cubits.

Originally posted by XanthosNZThere are mountains which do have a tendency to rise, Sister X. Sea fossils have been found on very high altitudes.

These facts don't prove anything about a story or report in the Bible, but they certainly disprove your way of reasoning.
Originally posted by ivanhoeYes, the Himalayas are rising at an inch a year. That;d be a whopping 250 feet in the last 3,000 years, or 500 feet in the last 6,000 years.

Oh wait, Mt Everest is 29,000 feet high....
