If the flood occurred in 2370 bce, how did all these buildings that were built before it survive a cataclysmic event that powerful enough to carve the grand canyon and create mount Everest?

How did these buildings survive a flood that altered the surface of the earth? if the pyramids were built in 2500 BCE, a few hundred years BEFORE the flood, how did they survive the flood? Why don't they at least show damage as a result of the flood that reshaped the surface of the earth? Did God miraculously preserve these buildings just to confuse modern humans?

What type of damage? Like we see after a local flood? The height line? The debris destruction against the structure? Who can say it does not show such damage? Remember this flood COVERED the entire earth, so the examples we may be so used to may not be visible and also may be removed over time, when we began to truly make a viable search for evidence.

So a pyramid was built at the exact time of the flood ? 2370 B.C.  That's clever. 

I didn't even know the whole Earth was being populated back then. 

I suppose the way of dating things has to come into question, radiocarbon dating or relative dating etc.

Thank you for those links

There seems to be some confusion with preservation. I don’t recall where a great amount of rainfall severely damaged structures other than mold. Physical destruction as “events” like earthquakes, volcanos, tsunamis, etc. leave a physical imprint.

To an intelligent person, this would be separate issues, and not having them clumped into one.

Science thesis on the Iceman (Otzi) to be about 5300 years. If we use creation combined with science, then the Iceman is a pre-flood victim that was deposited in that arctic region then was covered with layers of permafrost until the body was discovered in modern time in its pristine mummification.

Yet, archeology or science will not admit this theory in order to preserve their own erred conclusions by not giving God credit for his creation after the expulsion from the garden.

Live life smarter….

'A great amount of rainfall'. I think the flood was a bit more than that.

It came upward from the ground as well as downward from the 'canopy'. 

And the pressure pushing downwards would, one would think, destroy all in it's path.  There are of course things remaining intact on the sea bed in various places, and with Jehovah's powers anything is possible. 

Those that believe, believe. Those that don't, dont. And of course 'science' / governments / businesses  will not give praise to God.

My view of science is that 'whoever pays the piper calls the tune'.    

I still think it's funny that someone has dated the building of a pyramid to the same date as the flood.
