This is a hypothetical scenario. Let us suppose he did cause the flood, and the flood happened exactly as portrayed in the bible. I would like to discuss several issues
1. Why did god need to wipe all mankind except the Noah clan?
2. Was there nobody else worth saving?
3. God created and he saw that it was good. Why did he had to destroy most of what he thought was good?
4. There are several difficulties in reestablishing a working ecology after a worldwide flood. Did god thought of those difficulties or did he acted on an impulse? And if he did thought of those, did he find acceptable to bend the rules he set in the first place so that the ecosystem be reestablished?
5. If you think of anymore bugs in the flood plan, feel free to present them.
For the sake of this thread, we are discussing from the perspective that it already happened. The purpose is to think about what did god had in mind.
