Sorry, you are not in a position yet to ask questions. Do you see your error? Answer that and I will answer your question.I only asked one question. What percent of the species went extinct on a world wide bases so far in this extinction?
As others have pointed out, long enough to be scavenged by large and small predators as well as trampled. As others have also pointed out, this isn't really relevant to the thread though, I was just curious how fast you thought burial had to take place. But let's discuss the OP. Would you like to address the question of how the arrangement of the fossil record was produced without reference to evolution? In your case I would assume this means answering the question of how the Flood produced the observed arrangement of the fossil record.How long can a bone last lying on the surface...waiting to be slowly covered?
It is not a smart choice to stick with a book that has been shown to be wrong. I guess that means you will disagree with any books that make such basic claims as "ice floats".
No, the refutation of the Fe-preservation hypothesis that you claim was debunked in the book you read.
You DID read the book right? Explain to me the problems with the hypothesis....chemically. Please. Thanks.
Interesting.
I didn't know this.
But which came first, in your opinion?
The meander bend, or the Grand Canyon?
I say the meander bend came first.
I mirror the person that I am responding to. If you can be polite I can be polite too.Why would I disagree with a book that says "ice floats"? ...or are you just being nasty? If so, why would you be so nasty? Is it your religious atheistic value system?
I read the bible? What book did you read?
I mirror the person that I am responding to. If you can be polite I can be polite too.
If you believe in a worldwide flood then you have to believe that ice does not float. There have been icecaps at Antarctica and Greenland for longer than homo sapiens have been on the Earth. And that is just one of the many observed facts that tell us that there was no worldwide flood.
YOU provided a link to a book from the Creation Research Society that YOU claimed refuted the Fe-preservation hypothesis.
Presumably YOU READ this book. YOU need to now explain to me the CHEMISTRY that you read that convinced you of it's correctness.
YOU provided the CRS book link, YOU read the book, now EXPLAIN why you believed the book, chemically.
Thanks.
Wrong. Their ages are confirmed by several independent methods.The ice caps were created after the flood.
The "Iron Based" concept has been refuted.

Analysis of Preservation Motifs
Schweitzer et al. (2013a, 2013b) have proposed numerous possible explana- tions for the survival of recovered colla- gen and other soft tissue materials found in T. rex and B. canadensis including for example molecular sheltering, hydro- phobic enrichment, iron-protein b- ing, cross-linking, etc. Undoubtedly all if not most of the proposals have some merit. However, in our view, the matter of these mechanisms explaining deep time survival has not been adequately supported either empirically or by literature review. We begin by merely pointing out that the Fenton chemistry hypothesis supported by the ostrich tis- sue preservation experiment over 2 years, using hemoglobin as a preservative is simply inadequate to extrapolate and infer stabilization over 68 million years. It is unknown if environmental factors like high-low temperature cycling or dehydration might radically alter the test specimens appearance. Is a tissue specimen soaked in blood kept in a laboratory an adequate experiment to model the environmental weathering of postmortem tissue? In this vein, it is again trivially pointed out that the visual inspection method of tissue analysis is woefully inadequate to draw any conclusions concerning a molecular mechanism of stabilization. The group has access to mass spectra evaluation which could have identified footprints of hydroxyl radical presence. As we shall see, a more careful analysis of the mass spectral data related to the particular peptides and sequences shows that some doubt, if not complete rejection, of several preservation motifs is war- ranted. The particular motif that intro- duces more problems than it purportedly solves concerns Fenton chemistry iron fixation of the peptides.
The proposal is essentially hydroxyl free-radical infiltration into soft tissue. The free radicals are generated by iron- biominerals with which the tissue is combined. Success of this mechanism depends upon deployment of the free radicals through an aqueous medium in contact with the polypeptide. We hold that “chemical fingerprints” of this activity should be registered upon the peptides themselves. For example, hydrolytically sensitive amino acids (asparagine, glutamine) should have degraded and free-radical sensitive com- pounds (tyrosine) should have reacted. These observations may seem like an unnecessary if not insignificant detail to observe but recall that the specimens have been in the ground for some 68 million years. If a chemical mechanism (Fenton chemistry or iron mediated hy-droxyl radical fixation) is to be believed, its entire consequent (fugitive water and hydroxyl radicals dosing the peptide remnants) ought to have occurred. Be- low we set out upon an inspection of two general ideas concerning the presence of water and hydroxyl free radicals and their potential signature upon peptide chemistry.
That's nice.Old rivers move around and form meanders.
ROFLOL...sure they have.Wrong. Their ages are confirmed by several independent methods.
There was no worldwide flood.
Sorry, but you cannot refute a scientific argument with a source that avoids science.
Do you understand what you copy pasted here?The "Iron Based" concept has been refuted.

ROFLOL...sure they have.
How am I losing any "credibility points"? The openly state that anyone that works for them in any way at all has to avoid the scientific method.How does the source avoid science? (you do know you are losing credibility points quickly?)
That's nice.
Now trying saying it this way:
"The Flood waters followed a preset course on their way to a deportation point, in obedience to God's command."
