Hmm. she has considerable negative press from the scientific community. She's also ranked #329 in the Encyclopedia of American Loons, which doesn't bode well... I found Sensuous Curmidgeon's take enlightening - some wells are self-poisoning
Oh I bet she has. Liars don't like being called out.

Loons? Jesus's own people thought He was out of His mind at one point, so don't thinks she'd be really worried about that.

Mark 3:21 But when His own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, for they said, “He is out of His mind.”

Sorry, i wrote that in haste, did not state in detail
that your link did not work, but later i just typed in
" whales in andes" and could open it.
Id read about them before.
Here is another article. Scientists solve mystery of mass whale graveyard in Chile

There is much more, in far greater detail, if a person is interested in
clearing their misconceptions.

"Suddenly trapping" is a total misconception.
Your notion about this is 100 percent false.

How whale bones, limestone and shale (from the seabed where they
are formed) and all the fossils in them are pushed up
into mountains is a thoroughly studied and well known
process. The Andes are still growing, as are the Himalayas.
It doesnt happen suddenly.

You might learn a little basic geology jf you want to
know more about it. But i suppose you think k its all lies.

Anyway, i will leave you to your confusion, as you
have revealed your belief that the world scientific
community is intellectually dishonest and will do anything
to try to discredit your chosen reading of genesis.
Some go so far as to think they are minions of Satan.

No book or website explaining basic geology is going
to help you with that.

I see you've been peddling this "a global flood had to tap that capacity" nonsense phrase on multiple internet forums, as have a couple of other people - aliases perhaps? Copy-pasting your own work, or copying others'?

But I see no evidence to show that Gould ever said anything of the sort. I think you, or some creationist website, made it up. Care to prove me wrong?

The marine fossils are not buried together ( mixed) with
the terrestrial ones. See the article i linked for hank.

As a stUdent in the USA i studied biology and geology.
On a field trip to Western Nebraska i visited badlands
north of Harrison.
Lots of fossils, from ancient lake bed. Turtles are common,
as are mammal bones.
Nothing unusual about animals dying in or near water.
Bones that wash into a lake will be preserved. Those left
out in the weather will soon be gone. Simple.

Except for lava flows, all rock on the globe is sedimentary rock of some kind.
So most any rock you find was laid down by water in it's past.

Someone sure made it up and is peddling phony baloney
in support of Christianity, which, BTW is a noble faith.
It is deeply shameful to sully it with lies.

Of course she does not like being called a liar.

What you should be trying to learn is how do we know that she is a liar.

You appear to be taking geology for granite. It would be gneiss if you knew more about the topic. But then this whole thread would be up.for gabro if that were the case.

This particular individual posting that nonsense was banned - was it something they said?

Just like with macroevolution, you have accepted all science as written in stone back to the beginning, everything then as it is now, when all we know and build conclusions upon is ‘what we reason we know and understand.’ I can’t help but think God gets a chuckle out of that.

Anyone who thinks that way is a
complete dimbulb and hasnt the
least idea of what science is or how it works.

If there is a God with opinions on human conduct
we doubt he'd be amused by such a gross insult.

If it bothers you, consider it a metaphor.
