| |
| |subject=Global or local Flood
| |
| |summary=How do we deal with the fact that there is no scientific evidence of a worldwide flood? How can the scriptures and prophets teach of a worldwide flood, when this contradicts the evidence? The biodiversity of plants and animals on the earth could not have occurred within the span of a few thousand years. Did the continents separate during the flood of Noah? Doctrine and Covenants 133:23–24 seems to imply that they did. How do we reconcile this to scientific fact? Didn't Brigham Young, John Taylor and Orson Pratt teach that the Flood was the baptism of the Earth?

| |sublink4=Question: Doesn't the Bible say that the continents were divided immediately after the Flood?
| |
| |sublink5=Question: How did ancient people of the Old and New Worlds view the "the world"?
