Genesis Flood Theory

The Genesis Flood Theory proposes that a global flood described in the Bible's Book of Genesis was a historical event that shaped Earth's geology. It suggests that many rock formations, fossils, and land features resulted from this massive, worldwide deluge occurring roughly 4,000 to 5,000 years ago. Supporters believe the flood explains sediment layers, species diversification, and the rapid burial of organisms. While mainstream science interprets these features through gradual natural processes over millions of years, the flood theory offers a literal, historical perspective based on biblical accounts.
