Like what? retaining walls? natural sump pumps? what?There are far too many observations in the geologic record that render the Flood impossible.
No one claims that...
It does make it rather difficult discussing the complexity of the genetic code and how a process containing random chance generated the information contained in DNA.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.
I'll wait.
Like bioturbation.Ad hoc. But it doesn't matter since the Flood never happened. There are far too many observations in the geologic record that render the Flood impossible.
It's only difficult if you don't understand how natural and sexual selection works in populations. Traits that confer an advantage to a species survival will become prevalent through subsequent generations.It does make it rather difficult discussing the complexity of the genetic code and how a process containing random chance generated the information contained in DNA.
Like bioturbation.
The geological record contains different layers of strata. If it took millions of years to lay them down....the worms, oysters, and other critters would have destroyed the easily seen layers.
Observations such as strata show flaws in the OE models.

Are you ready to provide a metric we can use to define what "Information" is?
Bioturbation is not a problem for standard geology. It's funny you mention it though because there are trace fossils (that what bioturbations are) at all layers of the geologic column that could not have happened during the flood. They include:
paleosols
egg nests
insect and mammal burrows
plant root systems
footprints
Actually there are layers, some hundreds of feet thick, that could not have been lain by the Flood.
- Limestone (including chalk) only forms in calm shallow seas and need a certain amount of calcium and carbon diooxide in the water for cocolithophores to grow.
- Shale would not form in the Flood conditions.
- Subaerial igneous layers could not happen during the Flood.
- Volcanic ashfall would not form layers of dry, compacted ash during the Flood.
- Eolian (windblown) strata could not form during the Flood.
That would depend on what stage of the flood was occurring. You evo-minded think the whole event was like a giant cement mixer.
I'm not going to address each and every bullet...but limestone presents quite a problem of the OE slowly deposited view. Why is it so pure? All that time depositing and not much debris polluting it.
You do know that conditions would have been perfect for large blooms after the flood which showered down and formed the chalk.
Fine.No one claims a local flood covered every hill on earth, as you were implying.
Unless it takes just one mutation to change a fin into a leg or develop the echo location system in a dolphin....the additional information required would be impossible to achieve.
Google it.
Then show us how mutations add up.How would you know? You can't just decide something is impossible and declare it to be so.
What does this question even mean? You want every single mutation that happened to life over the the last, what, billion years since multicellularity evolved?Then show us how mutations add up.
I'll admit mutations are a long way from asteroids...but they present quite the problem for evolutionist. You see USincognito, for a trend to evolve lots of mutations are required. In the animals progeny a second, third, fourth..etc....mutation has to occur in the organisms DNA that effects the evolving trend in a way that it enhances the fitness of the trend. Considering the large size of the DNA (3-3.5 billion base pairs in humans) and the extreme rarity of so called beneficial mutations the ability for the information to increase and the trend to evolve...especially to the level of complexity and sophistication we see today renders descent with modification impossible.What does this question even mean? You want every single mutation that happened to life over the the last, what, billion years since multicellularity evolved?
Whatever you're asking for it's hilarious watching you move the goalposts.

renders descent with modification impossible.
I've asked you how it is possible, but I really don't think you know.
I always get a chuckle when I read stuff like this. Mutations are the fuel that drives evolution. Contrary to being a problem for evolution, they are the fuel that powers tge engine.

I know the English translation makes it sound global but the Hebrew words used aren't as confusing.
