If you mean before the flood,

I do mean before, and during, the Flood.

... then I don't see why you're pointing to the cliffs as evidence of the Flood.

Why?

If you don't mean before the Flood, then my statement stands.

I don't think you understand.

It doesn't matter how many generations might live at the same time. There are too many dead bodies for them to have all been alive at a single time.

Did I say -- or even hint -- they were all alive at a single time?

If God sent a supertornado through a graveyard and it tore up the ground, then He swept all the bones from that graveyard into a neat pile, would you assume all those people lived at the same time?

I thought gappery dictated that flood evidence
was cleaned up, being the reason there isnt any.

"Gappery" said they were swept up into a nice neat pile and left here on earth on purpose as visual evidence of the Flood.

Leftovers, so to speak.

If I was a "broken record," you'd know where I stand on this, and wouldn't have made the mistake of thinking I said they were all alive at one time.

You're trying hard to find a flaw in my beliefs, and you don't even know what I believe.

I wish I had remembered sooner, so I wouldn't have fallen for your bait-and-switch. You held the White Cliffs of Dover out as though that might be evidence of a great flood. But then it turns out that what you meant was that the White Cliffs of Dover are evidence of a White Cliffs of Dover-constructing miracle.

And what would it look like?

Would you stand atop white cliffs and claim there's no evidence of the Flood?
Chalk doesn't form in floods and there are geologist who think the straights of Dover formed from the catastrophic drainage of a glacial sea around Doggerland.

Would you cross meandering rivers and claim there's no evidence of the Flood?

Meandering rivers *DO NOT FORM* from floods. Quite the opposite. They are evidence of slow, steady flows with relatively low slope.
Would you notice there is no population of people nine and a half feet tall around and claim there's no evidence of the Flood?
Or, there never was any evidence of 9.5 foot-tall people anywhere in the geologic record.
I think you would.
I hold no hope that actual evidence will have any impact with you.

Unless, as I have notated before, God ordered the waters off the earth by sending them in serpentine paths that etched The Serpent's image into the earth.

Psalm 104:8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.

Notice they went to a "siphoning point" for removal from the earth?

You've provided an AV-style QED of durangodawood's statement.

I think you're smarter than this, Salty.

I'd expect that from Kylie, but not you.

I can't believe you'd walk through a cemetary and assume everyone buried there were all alive at the same time once.

It there was evidence of a global flood, we'd have seen it given we've poked into just about everywhere on the globe.
Who sees it then ? Everywhere on earth practically there is evidence for the flood, ever since it happened.
I see evidence for the flood every day - all the people that I see anywhere, so far, are descendents of Noah and his sons and their wives. No exceptions.

I think they expect to see "watermarks" all over the earth as acceptable evidence.

As if God didn't know how to clean up His mess.

Rivers that meander aren't "etched into the Earth" they are just patterns in soft mud, sand, or soil cause by slow flowing waters.

I think copyright laws, and trademarks/patent protection, even patents, are part of and come from ungodliness, usually if not always. The system has led to more corruption, proceeding from greed, and strangling hope.
God offers His Unmeasurable Grace Freely Without Cost, to those He Is Pleased to Have Mercy on. I wonder, or rather doubt, that He ever would "patent" anything or restrict Grace to those who could afford to pay for it ?

Catastrophic flood huh.

The chalk is cretaceous and when / how
it eroded is a different topic.

That's only evidence that you choose to
believe an old story is literally true, believec that
your God is a mass murderer, and, believevthat
you know more than any scientist on earth.
Or than millions of educated Christians who
Understand it can't be literal.

That's a lot of believin'
