I have been saying that the events of the flood followed the natural laws
which God invented. I believe that the flood was a catastrophe that was
initiated by God in causing a string or large cluster of asteroids to strike
the earth. God directed and or altered the path of the asteroid's orbit to
intersect with the orbit of the earth. The earth (and moon) passed through
the asteroid cluster resulting in many impacts in quick succession for a
period of time (the Bible indicates 150 days). The natural results, within
the laws of nature as invented by God, would be a global catastrophe
consisting of thousands of events. After the last of the impacts, the globe
will slowly equal equilibrium and it will again become inhabitable.
The Bible does not call the Flood a miracle, so why should we?
