I would say the geological record show evidence of a catastrophic world wide flood.
Say it all you like but it doesn't.I would say the geological record show evidence of a catastrophic world wide flood.
How is that? An example perhaps?I agree, but the evidence has been badly degraded by other geological events.
Stop putting words in my mouth that I did not say or imply. Do it again and I will report you.

I agree, but the evidence has been badly degraded by other geological events. Worse yet the evidence, by the very nature of the flood, was never uniform.
First, what specifically do you perceive as flood evidence? Specifically type of strata.Subsequent flooding in many flood prone areas would remove or alter previous flood evidence, much like re-deposition would alter fossil remains.
Yes, but if it were a global flood there should be a layer of flood debris world-wide of the same age, would there not?Flood evidence would be very recent in geologic terms, be on or near the surface, and be very vulnerable to change or degradation.
Subsequent flooding in many flood prone areas would remove or alter previous flood evidence, much like re-deposition would alter fossil remains. Flood evidence would be very recent in geologic terms, be on or near the surface, and be very vulnerable to change or degradation. Any 'uniformity' would certainly have been lost in the millennia following the event.

You would be wrong. Tell you what. How about you answer these questions?
----------------------------------------
How does a Flood explain subaerial igneous intrusions?
How does a Flood address all the heat that would be produced by the formation of limestone?
How does the Flood explain trace fossils?
How does the Flood explain faunal succession?
How does the Flood explain 60,000 varve layers in Lake Suigetsu and hundreds of thousands of layers in ice cores?
How does the Flood explain glacial erosion and deposits?
How does Flood explain eolian deposits and paleosols?
How does the Flood explain meanders like Horseshoe bend?
How does the Flood explain the different states of erosion exhibited by different mountain ranges?
How does the Flood explain batholiths?
Why did RATE admit there was 500,000,000 years worth of radioactive decay in the geological record?
Why are those instances you presented a problem? All you have done is present a list of supposed problem void of an explanation.
I take it you know absolutely zero about geology then. Every one of those things is a problem for Flood geology. Let's start with the first one. All throughout the geological column that Creationists claim was laid during the Flood are subaerial igneous intrusions. Why would they be a problem? Because they form in the air, not under water. If the Flood is responsible for all the layers, how then could there be igneous layers that could not have formed during the Flood?
No one takes evolution on faith, either the evidence points to something or it doesn't, most people are not bothered either way but they do know that what is not known will either be found out eventually or put in the 'we don't know' box until they do know, saying it was magic or a God did it gets us exactly no where.Very few understand the 'facts' of evolution. Most of those who 'accept' the theory simply take it on 'faith' that science has it right.
Also, why do we have sedimentary strata thicker than the elevation of Mount Everest and why is there a layer of terrestrial sediment in the Grand Canyon, never mind explaining the formation of limestone.I take it you know absolutely zero about geology then.

The way layers of sedimentary strata are dated is by layers volcanic ash distributed throughout the geologic column. That can't happen with a flood.You'll need to provide an example.
Good.... saying it was magic or a God did it gets us exactly no where.
