How can I prove that Noah's flood did not cover the whole Earth with

History - China were writing everything down at the time. They
survived this “global killing” flood from around 4,000 miles away.

it will become un-seaworthy. The sea causes pressure on the planks

Science - Animals poop and pee. This is an alleged wooden ship
containing unrefrigerated food stocks for some 3,000 species of

in apartment blocks are pooping and peeing all over their straw
beds, which soaks down into the wood and rains on the stall below.
This would be a lethally toxic environment.
Commonsense - Dinosaurs. Genesis was written by men who believed

cornerstones. She has faith. You are both therefore correct, and argument
is pointless.
