Flyer nothing you can bring to the table says a world wide flood absolutely didn't happen
and you know that

I 'll stick with what at least has the slightest chance of being his truth.
When I know damn well what you're saying is likely BS before anything else.
Pando (Latin for "I spread"), also known as The Trembling Giant,[1][2] is a clonal colony of a single male quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) determined to be a single living organism by identical genetic markers[3] and one massive underground root system. The plant is estimated to weigh collectively 6,000,000 kg (6,600 short tons),[4] making it the heaviest known organism.[5] The root system of Pando, at an estimated 80,000 years old, is among the oldest known living organisms.[6][7]
Pando is located 1 mile southwest of Fish Lake on Utah route 25.[8] in the Fremont River Ranger District of the Fishlake National Forest, at the western edge of the Colorado Plateau in South-central Utah, at N 38.525 W 111.75.

You can't argue the fact that facts can add up to a lie.
Miles of coral reef, hundreds of feet thick, still survive intact at the Eniwetok atoll in the Pacific Ocean. The violent flood would have certainly destroyed these formations, yet the rate of deposit tells us that the reefs have survived for over 100,000 undisturbed years. Similarly, the floodwaters, not to mention the other factors leading to a boiling sea, would have obviously melted the polar ice caps. However, ice layers in Greenland and Antarctica date back at least 40,000 years.

You just seem to have a hard time facing the facts....
These reefs would have been torn apart and would have died. In fact, the oceans themselves would have died. All the ocean creatures, big and small, right down to the coral reefs ... dead dead dead. But no .. they are INTACT. Not disturbed for at least 100,000 years. So again .. more evidence that Noahs Ark story is impossible. It did not happen.

You can have your lies. Don't try to shove 'em this way pal.
The evidence is overwhelming. Noahs Ark didn't happen

The Earth canopy could also explain the life span reduction post flood as well.
With some like Methusala living to close to 1000 years old, a few generations after the flood life spans were reduced to around 120 years (Abraham, Jacob and Moses), and finally down to around 70 years like we have to this day.
The canopy would have blocked a much larger % of solar radiation slowing the decay of bio-organic life.
Just a thought.
God Bless,
First, let us look at atmospheric pressure. For the earth's atmosphere, the pressure is almost exactly hydrostatic, since it is held to the earth by gravity and velocities are too low to significantly change the pressure. In plain language this means that the air pressure at any point is equal to the weight of the air in a unit area column above that point. At sea level, air pressure in US engineering units is about 14.5 pounds/sq inch because a column of air one inch square extending to the top of the atmosphere weighs (Guess what!?) 14.5 pounds. On top of Mt. Everest, the pressure is lower because the lowest and densest 9km of the atmosphere is below that point.
Now the "vapor canopy" would form a part of the atmosphere, being a body of gas (water vapor) gravitationally held to the earth. It would in fact be most of the pre-flood atmosphere. There would have to be enough vapor to form 9km of liquid, when condensed, and, therefore the vapor would weigh as much as 9km of water. The pressure at the earth's surface, where Noah and family lived, would be equal to one atmosphere PLUS the weight of a 9km column of water of unit area. This is equivalent to the pressure 9km deep in the ocean. What is this pressure? Well, each 10m of water is roughly equivalent to one atmosphere, so the pressure would be 900 atmospheres. The atmosphere would also have a composition of about 900 parts water vapor to one part of what we call air today.
