Now lights on and pay attention to my post that you're replying to -> I was not promoting the flood as per what some claim or even promoting it.
I was addressing your point -> where could the water come from.
In many Bible verses, where you see the word "world" it is referring to the inhabited world of those times and not the entire earth.
"
all of the animals could not be maintained, kept fed, waste managed,"
Lights on again -> if one was to go with the line that God created everything, surely you're not going to suggest that he could not in effect cause a hibernation type effect for the animals -> no food, no POOOOOOOOOOO, it could have been Nye Nye time for them, all went to bed with Fat Cat like the boys and girls 
Supposedly, the ark didn't end up on the top of the mount that many claim it to be anyway, it is supposedly much lower down.
As for "
faith based narrative". -> I couldn't give a Monkeys Uncle about it lol, as it's not an eternal life requirement, to know all the in's and outs and what message it maybe trying to relay.
The KEY is = 8 = New beginning, which Jesus along with his name as well, is entwined with the number 8, which is also shown in the music scale -> 8 being the last Do (end), which is also the new beginning of the next higher scale.
Hence Do Re Me............Do and what does the Bible say regarding Jesus -> the beginning and the end -> either end of the scale.
But the Father is the first Do -> Hence Jesus can say, I am in the Father (Do) and the Father is in me (Do) - image of.
Father with the lower voice and the Son with the higher 
The Two Do's Do's and the last Do = The
Door to Daddy at the top DO - LOL.
