Usually. As you learned, fossilization is relatively rare for vertebrates. But it does happen. But as whales sink into the sediment, some of them are buried before the bones decay.
No. We've already been through this. What is there to bury the whale? How is the whale gonna be buried in the sediment on the ocean floor? There are many scavengers that will keep on feasting until the whale and its bones are gone. Now during the Flood there would have been some whales who were caught up above the mountains and thrust against rock and buried in the sediments. That is a realistic scenario. And since whales would have stayed near the surface during the Flood its not hard to see how some whales became victims of the Flood. And, obviously, many whales survived. But most of the fossil record is marine life. We find the same scenario with other forms of marine that were either floating among the debris or being caught up on the mountain tops. This is how and why we see all kinds of marine life found at the peaks of mountains. It was the Flood of Noah. All these other excuses are just that...excuses.
And there are fossils of whales with holes in the bones, where worms burrowed into them to get to the marrow, leaving the rest. So it's not a sudden thing.
That finding was not whales discovered up in the Andes but another case of whale remains found off the California coast on the ocean floor. So there was a time when landmass collapsed and because ocean basins which would have further buried more carcasses even after the Flood.
Job 14:18-19 New International Version (NIV 1984)
18 “But as a mountain erodes and crumbles
and as a rock is moved from its place,
19 as water wears away stones
and torrents wash away the soil
so you destroy man's hope.
Here Job is witnessing the aftermath of the Flood which was still ongoing in his day. So whales that died in the Flood and did not get immediately buried in the sediments (as not all life that died during the Flood became fossilized--some bodies were feasted on by other creatures), later had their bones buried when landmass collapsed and created large ocean basins. The Flood changed the entire geological structure of the earth. There used to be more landmass before the Flood.
As you learned, much of the Andes mountains are made of marine fossils. So yes. The rocks were indeed lifted there.
Uplifts did not place fossils on the Andes. There is no evidence that the mountain ranges have never been mountain ranges which were above sea level. So this uplift excuse is just that...an excuse. Its an excuse designed to avoid the real answer. This excuse assumes whales naturally become fossils at death which is not true. It also assumes the Andes mountains were beneath sea level which is an assumption made with no ancient witnesses. So if evolution were to be history, it has to have historical support. It has none. Its all the vague imaginations of men who hate God and want to turn their nation into a communist country. With that said, evolution theory is thoroughly discredited in one word: Europe! One look at Europe today is proof humans cannot believe in evolution with killing themselves off. Obviously it is not natural to live apart from God. Europe was doing fine until they abandoned God.
If you were less obsessed with your Marxist ideology, you'd probably be doing better here.
I'm a far cry from being a Marxist. I voted for Trump and no Marxist would have voted for Trump since he embodies everything Marxist-communism opposes. I provided proof for the Flood and you've given me geological uplift tales which have no basis in rational science or history. Its an excuse based on political reasoning.
As you learned, the Chicxulub event did not cause a worldwide firestorm.
No. The video features a 500km asteroid, not the 12-15 km Chicxulub object.
All documentaries show a firestorm (or ejector cloud) covering the earth. I have never seen one video where the firestorm did not cover the earth. An asteroid large enough to destroy all life is gonna have the same effect as a larger asteroid. And if the firestorm was localized, which is what I'm getting from you, then dinosaurs in different parts of the world should be doing just fine. But mass dino graveyards are found in more places than just North America. What we have is a mass fossil extinction record of life. This mass extinction was global and not localized. The Flood was not local and the asteroid theory is not local. So if you stick with the localized firestorm you do not have an explanation how dinosaurs, of the same Cretaceous period, also joined the fossil record?
I've watched I think every video ever produced by evolutionists about the K-T event and all of them show a firestorm go around the earth. This is also combined with burning acid rain which was molted rock that had been flung up into the atmosphere and came back down on the earth. Then there is the noxious cloud and the nuclear winter that follows. Nothing could have survived! Nothing.
In reality, water would not be seen on the earth. There would be no clouds, or oceans or any water. Yet we see vast oceans today which are better explained by the Flood.
And as I said like twice before: Evolutionists today have changed their theory some to make room for a near global Flood. They are doing this because they know they cannot explain the fossil record without water and lots of it. All you have to do is watch the newer programs and see how evolutionists now incorporate a near global Flood. So you are not updated in current developments of this theory.
