Is Death Really The End?
To be fair, however, you must face the fact that the confusion is caused by the many religions that muddy the clear waters of Bible teachings with fallacies and legends. When you ignore the traditions and myths and stick to what the Bible actually says, you discover a teaching that makes sense.

//Plants were created before the sun, and the moon, and the stars - so if a day represented a geological age, how did those plants survive at absolute zero and in the absence of light?//
Science may not currently have all the answers, but in the complete absence of any evidence that a God exists, there’s no rational reason to assume that a supernatural being was responsible.

The question of how the Earths atmosphere and hydrosphere was formed is an interesting one - and one that we do not have conclusive answers to at the moment.
The conditions and causes that lead to the formation fo the Earths atmosphere and hydrosphere were likely due to impacts from planetismals and other very large orbital bodies, as well as the equally violent internal stresses of the formation events of the Earth itself - These events are collectively described as "Early Catastrophic Outgassing". Material from the earths interior was ejected as a consequence of these strikes, and due to the violent stresses of the formation process itself - and it is this material that reacted to form the atmosphere and hydrosphere. The water that those comets may have contained was only a contributor to the overall quantity of water.
A comet strike can indeed be a cataclysmic event - An Extinction Level Event, of which there are thought to have been several, during Earths 4.5 billion year history.
