Neville, Below are a couple of comments on your updated paper: 1. I read your quoted passages from Gen 7 about the Flood quited differently. It seems to read more clearly that God is saying in 7 days, I'll cause the 40 days to begin. Then, after the 7 days, he both opened the windows of heaven and the fountains, with the result that immediately that day the flood waters were upon the earth. I don't see at all your reading that there is a 7 day lag during which the water traversed the universe to get to earth. 2. Have you looked at an original Hebrew text and asked a Hebrew scholar to test your conclusion. This is a time when an english translation with punctuation and sentence structure might make a lot of difference to so fine a point. 3. At the beginning of the paper you conclude that it follows from Scripture that it will always be impossible for us to actually measure the size of the physical universe, but then you go on to do exactly that and conclude with far more than an estimate. 94,000 kilometers is pretty precise measure. So, aren't you contradicting Scripture.
