we did, and found loads of evidence that could not have formed in a flood. The idea of a global flood was falsified over a hundred years ago.
Exactly!!!!!!!! You took the words straight out of my brain!Recent research I've discovered suggest to me that the ancient Hebrews viewed their particular section of the world and that it extended no further.
If you know that they were writing from this point of view, then a massive flood of the Black Sea (as there is evidence for) would in fact be a worldwide flood, from their point of view. They had no concept of "global" because they had no concept of the earth as a globe, so it is our mistake in applying the stories of the bible on a global scale that has rendered it wrong. When it was originally written, and to the people that wrote it, it may very much have been true.
Keep looking.
BTW how did so many huge clams die in the closed position (when shellfish die, they open) in various parts of the world that are VERY far from the ocean, ie. Mt Everest?
Please, the fossil in (not on) the limestones that comprise Mt Everest were deposited there before the Himalayan mountain were thrust up starting in the late Cretaceous by the collision of the Indian Subcontinent with the Eurasion plate. They have nothing to do with a global flood. Leonardo Da Vinci first realized that fossils in the rocks of mountains were not evidence of the flood of Noah so your supposed flood evidence is more than a little out of date.I voted yes. To deny the flood of Noah is to say that the Bible is inaccurate.

The problem for the "flood believers" is that not only is there no evidence for a global flood, but there is massive evidence from biology, geology, paleontology and archeology showing that such an event could not have occured and the more science "keeps looking" the more evidence it finds against such a flood.

The only way for creationism to survive is if you convince christians to stop looking at a very young age.
In other news, the scientific community has embraced a new theory that the moon is made, not of cheese or rock, but of marshmallow. When asked for evidence for this surprising change of heart, a scientist working at the observatory where the theory was first worked out, he said, "Keep looking - we're sure it's true!"
I've yet to see a creationist use the Flood to actually try and properly explain anything except the Grand Canyon, and we all know how good that one was. If the Flood left evidence in the form of the canyon, one wonders how the chalk cliffs of dover formed - metres and metres of rock which is deposited very very slowly...
Believe me, I have. Actually, the lack of evidence for the great flood was one of the major factors as to why I stopped believing in the bible and eventually god. There is no evidence whatsoever for the flood. If you have some I would like to see it?
Science pwns creationism yet again.
I suppose it is not your problem because you have decided long ago to ignore the mass of scientific evidence the contradicts your interpretation of the Bible but it is a problem for flood geologists. Your constant repeating of the phrase "keep looking" doen't help you though because the more science looks the more evidence it finds against the global flood.Why is that my problem, FB?
No, they interpret it the only way that makes any logical sense. Don't forget that the scientists who first falsified the global flood had been taught that it was a real event. Perhaps you should read Glenn Morton's story. He tried hard to interpret the data he collected in the way he had been taught, that is in terms of a global flood, but found it was impossible. The same was true of David Young and several other geologists who were trained as flood believers. It is only recently that there have been a few (very few) geologists who have been sufficiently indocrinated in the flood myth to hold it against the evidence of modern geology.You biologists, geologists, paleontologists, and archaeologists just interpret the evidence the way you're taught to interpret it.
That is because you close you eyes to the multiple falsifications of the global flood. But accepting science over religious dogma does not really cause me any problems.As I see it, that's your problem --- not mine.
Actually the record high temperature for Helsinki is 88 F which I consider rather hot. Of course with global warming that record will probably be exceeded soon.It will be a hot day in Helsinki when that happens.
Please, the moon dust nonsense was refuted long ago and in fact completely backfires on Young Earth Creationism. BTW if the moon were only 10,000 years old the amount of "moon dust" would be so thin that it would be hard to measure at all.Is this the same scientific community that thought the moon dust was several feet thick, because they thought the moon was much older than it was?
Wanna guess why Neil Armstrong had to jump from the bottom rung of the ladder?
