The mountain appears to be post flood.So, are you then saying that the volcano was made during the flood, too? That the Ark settled on top of, what was at the time, an active volcano?
You wrote the letter in 1972, but the surviving copy was made in 1985.
So it would be wrong to say I wrote my letter when Ronald Reagan was our president, wouldn't it?
Daniel was a young man who was deported to Babylon from Judea by Nebuchadnezzar.
Faith.This appears to be a non sequitur. How do you go from saying that you wrote a letter in 1972, before Ronald Reagan was president (although the only surviving copy was made in 1985), or from the fact that the book of Daniel was copied at Qumran in about 125 BC, to the conclusion that Daniel was a contemporary of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon (reigned ca. 605 BC - ca. 561 BC)?

The book of Daniel is a work of fiction dating from the time of the Maccabean rebellion (about 164 BCE). It was written almost 400 years after the death of Nebuchadnezzar.
So-called beneficial mutations accumulating and increasing information is a myth.
Mountains such as Ararat were formed when the continents collided. I'm sure even you would agree with that.
Mount Ararat is actually a volcano that was built up via eruptions.
This is a falsehood. We have numerous examples of beneficial mutations and increases in information. Two that I can think of right off hand are SRGAP2C and ARHGAP11B which came about due to gene duplication and subsequent mutations which caused genus Homo to have more dendrite connections and a larger neocortex. An example over a much longer time frame were two whole genome duplication events in an ancestral population of jawless fish which gave rise to the variety of globins found in modern vertebrates.
Ararat was a post flood event.It's funny how YECs claim that marine fossils "on" mountains is evidence for the Flood and yet there are no marine fossils associated with Ararat.
What's equally funny is OECs saying the Bible saying every high hill on the Earth gets covered by a local flood.It's funny how YECs claim that marine fossils "on" mountains is evidence for the Flood and yet there are no marine fossils associated with Ararat.
You know what's amazing... creationists who use the word "information" as if they have some metric to define it.I find it amazing how far one has to dig to even propose information has been added to DNA. You would think with all the different species each with a variety of systems, organs, appendages etc., you would have no problem of providing and encyclopedia full of information increasing. Then the addition of increased information over and over again to we reach the sophistication and complexity we have today.

One of the first things I had to learn in college was the difference between information and data.You know what's amazing... creationists who use the word "information" as if they have some metric to define it.
So, This isn't information?
It's called the genetic code. It contains information on how to make organelle. It contains information on how to make you.Correct. It's not "information." This is a process called protein synthesis. This is how chemicals interact with each other.
Here's a quick primer for you: https://www.quora.com/Where-does-protein-synthesis-takes-place-What-is-the-process
Creationists do a huge dis-service for people who aren't educated in biology, as they don't properly explain the biological processes, then smuggle terms like "information" into it so you're impressed with the idea of information needing a "programmer," and oila, goddidit.
If you wan't to persist in using "information" as anything more than hyperbole, then it's incumbent on you to come up with a workable, defined, unit of "information." Otherwise you're just blowing smoke.
(FTR, ID/creos have been promising to define a unit of "information," and they haven't yet. There was this one guy who kept promising he was close, but he disappeared never to be heard from again.)
If you're happy burning that strawman, have at it. I was just throwin' you a bone so you don't look so silly trying to discuss biology. But since you're so keen on "Information," go ahead and define what a unit of "Information" is.It's called the genetic code. It contains information on how to make organelle. It contains information on how to make you.
FYI....one of the guys from your link said "The process by which genetic information is transferred from the nucleus to the ribosomes is called transcription." So, I suppose the site you sent me to is, how did you put it? "Just blowing smoke" as it used the "I" word.
