In today's Lomdeha Seminar shiur (10/23/20) we addressed what some might consider to be a controversial topic: the questions and problems raised by science against the narrative of The Flood in Parashas Noach. We began with an overview of four major problems. After briefly outlining three possible approaches to addressing these problems, we learned (what I currently consider to be) the ONLY viable solution that answers all of the questions in a manner which is consistent with our general approach to learning Torah and is both intellectually honest and intellectually satisfying. We concluded by identifying three categories of questions which remain to be answered.
