If there were billions of people before Noah's flood where are the fossils or bodies?

Answer 1

This question confuses faith with science. The Bible says that Noah's Flood occurred only around 1000 years after creation and, with the very low fertility portrayed in the Bible (for example, Methuselah supposedly only had his first son at the age of 187) there could not have been millions of people, let alone billions of people, at the time of the biblical Flood.

Science, on the other hand, says there never was a world-wide flood, as described in the Bible. Although modern humans have existed for perhaps 200,000 years, for most of this time the number of living people was very low. Until our ancestors left Africa around 50,000 years ago, there was probably only a sparse population living along the eastern coast of Africa. The total number of people who had ever lived did not reach one billion until long after the invention of agriculture 8,000 years ago. We are slowly beginning to find the fossils of early humans, but only where the bodies remain in places that permit fossilisation - most early humans were either eaten by wild animals or their bodies have decomposed.

Answer 2

The fossils decomposed due to water damage. And also all the presure and heat would melt them, because the world would reform land basis.
