Why does it matter that you believe in the biblical flood?

If in 2000 years, someone said that Hurricane Katrina happened, but someone else said it did not happen, why would that matter? True it would be sad for the people that died, but how would that change anything between them?

And if you want it to be true to illustrate the vengefulness of your God, well, that is sort of counter-productive, no?

Just wondering.

Oh and I heard somewhere that God used the flood to kill the demons. Couldn't he just have logically not created demons in the first place?

Why does it matter if we believe in the biblical flood? Because we are living in the last days, similar to times when Noah was alive, read Matt 24:37-39, "For just as the day of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark;and they took no note until the flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be.", people now are doing these things as well which are all fine to do, but they're not taking note that they're living in the last days, of which Jesus gave us signs to look for in Matt 24:3-14. So the flood is something to learn from, not that we're going to have another flood like it ever again. Jehovah promised we won't with the sign of the rainbow. We need to take note that we're in the last days & take action to get on the spirtual ark. So we can be aligned with the true religion & avoid destruction, just as Noah & his family got on the physical ark to be saved from destruction.
Also God used the flood to destroy wicked world of that day, although the demons escaped by dematerializing back into spirit creatures. Their their offspring & wicked humans perished in the flood. The demons cant materialize anymore, but can still create havoc along w/Satan as shown in Rev 12:9 &12 which say, "So down the great dragon was hurled the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth, he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him" & "On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing he has a short period of time." Satan's angels are demons, former angels, that turned away from Truth. Since they know they will eventually be destroyed forever, they want everyone else to be destroyed along with them. So if they cant live forever, they dont want anyone else to either.
So these scriptures show one reason why we see all the badness taking place on the earth today.
Also Jehovah didn't create demons, they became that way when they rebelled against Jehovah of their own free will. Same thing with people, when they have babies, they dont create murderers, liars or sex offenders, etc., but some become that way later on in life of their own free will.
