Such a deluge would have killed the vast majority of the species previously alive, and left the survivors with a severe genetic bottleneck (i.e., very little variety would be left in the surviving species). Both of these situations are contrary to what is in the world today.

Not to mention that biogeography would point to all terrestrial life originating from Mount Ararat. Of course, creationists routinely [fail to bother to explain why biogeography actually does not suggest that all terrestrial life originated from Mount Ararat. |
When I have more time--I heard bottlenecks. Been a while since I debated that one, but I got something for you. Remember it's like 5 against one here. You'll have to be patient--sorry. Gotta busy life too. Off to work.
