      The great flood is actually something that likely happened in some capacity

      Is a global flood not what people mean when they say the great flood?

          I’m not. It’s why I kept it in the quote. A great flood happening in some capacity sounds like you’re saying a global flood happened in some capacity. Massive regional floods giving people the impression the whole world is flooded is a little different. It’s all semantics though, really. If you say that’s what you meant then I accept I was just trying to clarify the confusion people are having.

            It’s really not that different to the people being flooded. Water as far as the eye can see, leaving destruction in it’s wake, possibly completely chainging the terrain forever, destroying their entire world.

            This would have been before the idea of a globe was even popular, let alone common knowledge.
