One question on my part before this topic moves further: can we get agreement on what the actual date of the flood is from the Creationist standpoint? I know that certain interpretations yield various dates so I was wondering if we can lay the groundwork on what the 'general consensus' is on the date of the flood.
The date I have seen that appears most prevalent on other creationist sites appears to be around 2300-2350 B.C. Note that Answers in Genesis states it quite explicitly at 2348 B.C.
Faith, can you verify this as being the date you agree with and if not, can you clarify?
