You buy that "argument" eh? Why? An "arguemnt" or an "idea" isn't worth crap without that little thing called proof or evidence, which this one lacks. This reminds me of a CO who once told me he could "come up with all sorts of reasons" why the arctic ice caps have absolutely no evidence for a worldwide flood 4500 years ago. Those "reasons" are worthless without corroborating evidence.
This is what happens when you try to create "proof" for myths.
One of the things the arctic ice caps absolutely do provide proof of is that there was no earthwide flood.

Could PBRs prove flood wasn't worldwide?

The argument (which I buy) is that the entire earthly region that was populated by men was covered over and this accomplished God’s purpose of destroying wicked mankind.
A Whooly Mammoth skeleton was found buried in America with a Clovis spear point embedded in it's ribs. Clovis points all date to about 10,000 years ago. If people were what we call wicked today , it was just called survival back then. It was only after the Flood that God gave man specific laws against things like, murder.
The PBR's are an interesting point, and one of many proofs against a global flood- a coastal one yes, as sea levels rose sveral hundred feet due to a melting of the glacial ice sheets, but not global.

The idea that "two of every kind" would be enough to allow the populations of creatures to reestablish themselves is impossible.
Yes, but the animals were closer to perfection back then, too...why, Genesis 5:68 tells us that Adam's shih-tzu "lived for 486 years and then he died, old and satisfied with rawhide".
So, 2 of each nearly-perfect animal was plenty!
Sheesh, you secular humanists are dense!

Let's face it, it must be true because a donkey would surely be argumentative if he could talk and Balaam would know his animal well enough to recognize its personality. Also, it would be reasonable to assume that the donkey would do God's will because all things work for the benefit of those who fear God. How true this story rings to those with faith in Jehovah's victorious organization. The modern day fulfillment is in the Donkey class of the annointed remnent who make asses out of themselves whenever they open their mouth.
