Large ocean of water found inside the earth

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

The amount that's in the Arctic Ocean? Well, you only need a million such regions and you'd have all the water you need for the Flood.

So where did you get this number? Off the top of your head perhaps?

Well so much for the ocean theory, if you had actually read the piece you would have found out what they are talking about is a large chunk of rock with a 15% water content. Not exactly an ocean. That's 85% rock.

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.

Amen, brother Whodey. Here is another exciting discovery:

"Hell is a real place, and scientists have found it, and it is in the center of the earth."

And 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.

There 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.

If 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.

Yes, 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....
