No it isn't. Geology does not back up a global flood.

When it rains a lot and the ground gets saturated it can seem like the water is coming up from the ground. Also you know they had wells so they knew water is in ground.

Reading comprehension is hard today, I know.

Well aside from trapped water existing or not, this certainly didn’t happen. The geological layering of soil would tell us, the extinction events would tell us, and the fossils would tell us.

Not to mention there’s also a massive problem with heat and moving that much water so quickly.

Triple the amount of surface water is far from enough to suggest a global flood is remotely possible, let alone plausible.

It isn’t though. A worldwide flood would leave behind plenty of evidence in the geologic record. That it doesn’t exist makes it quite implausible. Making matters worse is the supposed time of the flood had many civilizations with extensive records for hundreds of years before and after forget to mention they were wiped out and instead just continued living through the flood without noticing it.
