Explain the Biblical basis for eating meat. Substantiate your answer. The world wide flood of Noah's day, described in Genesis 6-8. 2. It was a world wide flood. Some large mountains are composed completely of conglomerate.
All geologists agree that conglomerates are deposited by rapidly moving waters.
The existence of high mountains throughout the world composed completely of continuous conglomerate requires a large and universal flood. Moreover, some of the conglomerate mountains contain fish fossils from top to bottom. This is further evidence of a world wide flood. After the flood, God gave man permission to eat meat. However, it wasn't always that way.
