According to the [[Biblical chronology]] the global flood occurred approximately 4500 years ago. If this event occurred as described in the Bible, the [[fossil record]] left behind could never be correctly interpreted by a naturalist. Although the earth is completely covered in monumental amounts of [[sedimentary rock|flood sediment]], a naturalist would have to explain the survival of animals using natural processes, such as many local floods, and gradual deposition over millions of years. However, the [[Bible]] specifically says God caused the earth to be flooded until the waters exceeded the highest mountain by 15 cubits (22.5 feet, or 7 meters) ({{Bible ref|book=Genesis|chapterchap=7|verses=20}}). The waters covered the mountains to the extent that no human was capable of surviving without supernatural intervention. The evidence of this event covers the world, but cannot be correctly interpreted by scientists who hold to an [[atheism|atheistic philosophy]] and naturalistic presuppositions.
