When I Feel Gladness at the Biblical Flood Which Removed Earthlings Who Were Making God Sad, I Feel Connected to Him Even More.

Ah yes. Feeling so sad you kill 99.whatever% of the population for literally no lasting or meaningful impact.
Does it make you feel glad because your god is as incompetent as you are? That your god is as malicious, petty, and violent as you wish you could be?
It sounds like a child repeating what they've been told to say. In the cult I was raised in I also had to preach. And I was told that the Great Tribulation and the end were about to happen, anyday. That I shouldn't study beyond high school because there's no time. That I might only be saved through work (propaganda for the organization). That the organization somehow was the only actual divine channel on Earth. That I should hate the world and not make friends at school.
We don't call such high control groups for nothing. I'm also doing much better for having left it behind as a teen. And today I know that what they taught me were mostly lies and mental disease conditioning and that their business runs on exploitation.
For all those reasons, it seems incredible to me when I witness that it's the same ideology and manipulation used by all kinds of authoritarian regimes and that so many people appear to fall for their traps.
Edit/Adding:
Enlil, do you? Because he was the god who wanted a great flood in the Epic of Gilgamesh. Ea was the god who tipped off humans, or at least Unapishtim, the original boatman. The Bible story is just a Hebrew version of this legend.
This says a lot more about you, than ancient legends.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
