    Catastrophic Plate Tectonics would have ended life on earth.

    Here's another factor to consider: At sufficient pressure, water does not boil, it seperates into a brine phase and a vapor phase, both being liquid. The densities of the two are different, but nothing like the difference between steam and water. Even if the contact with the magma was below...

    Catastrophic Plate Tectonics and Ocean Floor Bathymetry

    The highest ever recorded thermal conductivity, found in isotopically purified synthetic diamond: 410 W/cm/K or 4.1*10^4/m/K 500,000 times lower than Johnnie's number. (Google for "thermal conductivity highest" to find the link)

    Grand Canyon and the Flood

    Micaiah, Mechanical Bliss has just scratched the surface listing evidence of great age for the Grand Canyon strata. I'll add a few more: 10. Karst and other erosional features in the Redwall Limestone - "...a series of westwardly-deepening channels were incised into the surface of...

    Grand Canyon and the Flood

    Having a limited background in geology should not be a handicap in discerning the basic falseness of AIG's positions on laminations, the Grand Canyon and Noah's Flood. But being "sincere and honest" is not enough, however - you must be able to see past the religious blindness that makes you...

    Grand Canyon and the Flood

    The "detailed description" you asked for is known as geology. Here's an example: A Continuous Holocene transgressive sequence recorded in an 8-M core taken from northern Chesapeake Bay "We identified three distinct lithofacies (C, RE, and OE) in core RR98-9. Lithofacies C, a...

    A science question about the flood.

    Sorry guys, simple logic and math will cost you this point. The air pressure at sea level is nearly the same even if sea-level is higher by 29K feet. from AIG (can't give the url do to forum rules, but do a search on "oxygen"): "However, if we assume the worst case scenario of the radius of...

    A science question about the flood.

    C'mon guys, get a grip... If the Fluud raised sea-level to above Mt Everest, why would it be any colder? It's still sea-level, and the air is warmer at sea-level. Air pressure is still 14.7 psi, etc.
