Bruce D McKay said:The markings on the ocean floor evidence that the whole continent as pushed back about 300 miles, apparently lifted at the narrowest end, and then it moved from an 8 o'clock position to about a 4 o'clock possition, before it came back down to where it is now, in it's present postion.
That sentence is precisely 5 words too long.Bruce D McKay said:? DO YOU NOT SEE THAT THIS COULD NEVER HAPPEN OVER ANY GREAT SPAN OF TIME!
He has great comedy value.Jet Black said:prior to now, the greatest question man has asked has been "why are we here?" This question has been usurped by a greater mystery; "why did Jet Black take Bruce off his ignore list?"
I live in New Zealand.Bruce D McKay said:Dear Data:
Go and get an atlas with underwater oceanographic maps and look at New Zeland, just of the coast, and there you will find the whole tail of where South America was - at one time! You can see the whole continent - when you look. And that was before the Pacific ocean opened up!
Moreover, if you could take the mantle of the planet and compress it back down to about half it's current size - then you could slide North America and South America back into place where they once were - and there would be no VAST Pacific Ocean.
rubbish man, greenland just flipped uo on one end turned 90 degrees and then plopped itself down somewhere else. New ZEland did some other wierd stuff, in psychadelic colours, while russia and france did the kan kan arm in arm across the atlantic after watching North America pirouetting on mexico.Data said:I live in New Zealand.
It's called plate tectonics dude, continental drift. It's something everyone learns at intermediate school - the continents are big plates of rock, and they are slowly grinding around on top of the underlieng sea of magma, they have been doing this for billions of years, moving at really slow (but easily detectable) speeds. The force of the continents moving has the power to push plates together, under, over each other, into each other.. making volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountains such as the himalayas. It's the reason all continents do look like they fitted together at some point - because they did. Pangea? Gondwanaland? That's also something everyone learns at intermediate school.
Riight?
Btw, this website has a really cool animation of it

If you did, what would happen?Jet Black said:But you can't.Bruce D McKay said:

So, tell us about the promised land. Tell us what it's like there.Bruce D McKay said:I have seen the Tree of Life. I have seen the Promised Land!
I thought the new heaven and the new earth came after the 1000 year reign of Christ. Do you consider 1000 years to be soon?There is coming a New heaven and a NEW EARTH and it is going to hit here very, very soon!
They seem to be melting rather slowly. The ocean level is only increasing at a rate of about 2 inches a year. It maybe another 25 years before all heck begins to breaks loose. Esp. in Flordia, New Orleans & California.if you can't see the polar ice capss melting away,
there would be too many variables to change, and it depends on what compression mechanism he is proposing. Put most simply though, everything would die.PhantomLlama said:If you did, what would happen?
I've seen the Promised Land too, but it looked a lot like Brooklyn.JohnR7 said:So, tell us about the promised land. Tell us what it's like there.
"Soon" is a relative term. For an evolutionist, 1000 years is barely time for the Earth to blink.I thought the new heaven and the new earth came after the 1000 year reign of Christ. Do you consider 1000 years to be soon?
The Netherlands will also lose some prime real estate. And kiss Venice good-byeThey seem to be melting rather slowly. The ocean level is only increasing at a rate of about 2 inches a year. It maybe another 25 years before all heck begins to breaks loose. Esp. in Flordia, New Orleans & California.
And the cycle's been regular enough that Scientists can see the difference by drilling through the caps, just like counting rings on a tree...The polar caps seem to have been going though cycles of freezing and melting for many many years now.
And you're acting like a swine swine swine. Instead of using vague ad hononim attacks or "I am holier then thou"-lines, try to contribute something substatial to a discussion will you?Bruce D McKay said:"To argue with a man who has renounced his reason is like giving medicine to the dead." -- Thomas Paine
