Conflation of Blathers
Straw man. He never said there is no evidence of flooding in the geological record. There is... but not for a large global flood.

The evidence indicates it impacted water and that it created huge tsunamis. Yet you say there is no evidence of flooding. Pure nonsense.
I highly doubt anyone here can tell me without a doubt when such impacts happened and what happened when they did impact or what exactly was here to have been killed by such impacts.
All you have are assumptions.
If I may correct you, the moon and other planets don't have the protective atmosphere that earth does so get many more impacts. The earth does not show thousands and thousands of impacts.
Such an impact would have a rather adverse effect on aquatic life, too. Sudden and drastic changes in temperature can be devastating to marine environments. Also, you ever hear of acid rain?
In other words, these meteor impacts are a huge problem and setback for the evolution theory more than for the history stated in the bible. That's a very good point.

How are they a problem?

If it isn't a problem for evolution theory then it isn't a problem for biblical history either.
I thought everyone keeps saying life on the planet would have been severely devastated. Is that true or not?
No one is even saying what really happened. Just what "could have" happened in computer models.

Since evolutionary theory incorporates several extinction events over the last 1 billion years, it isn't a problem. Are you saying that the Bible also supports the evolution of modern life over billions of years and multiple extinction events with millions of years separating them?
Life on the planet was severely devasted on multiple occasions. The Permian/Triassic extinction was one of the worst where nearly 95% of all animal and plant species died off. This is with massive natural disasters spread over hundreds of millions of years. You want to compress these disasters into 4,000 years. That's a load of baloney.
What really happened is that these meteor impacts were spread over hundreds of millions of years, and it affected how life evolved.
Are you saying evolution works if 95% of life died off? That it works much faster than it is said to work? You are confusing one major extinction event (the flood) with many. Life was devastated once over the course of a year.

Genesis 7:11
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
The evidence indicates it impacted water and that it created huge tsunamis.
Then by all means, please point out the global-wide flood layer produced by tsunamis. And just to help you out a bit, look at the picture below so you can see what a tsunami leaves when it retreats. And oh yes! Please explain how a tsunami continued for an entire year.Yet you say there is no evidence of flooding. Pure nonsense.
It impacted both water and land.

Why is that? The problem is fitting everything into a 6,000 year timeframe. You indicated, however, that perhaps you don't require such a timeframe... is that correct?If it isn't a problem for evolution theory then it isn't a problem for biblical history either.
Yes, it works if 95% of animal and plant species are wiped out. In fact, such events lead to adaptive radiation, since it opens up many ecological niches that were occupied previously. Examples include mammals replacing dinosaurs after the K-T event and dinosaurs replacing mammal-like reptiles after the Permian-Triassic event.Are you saying evolution works if 95% of life died off?

Nonsense. There is no such event recorded in the geological record.You are confusing one major extinction event (the flood) with many. Life was devastated once over the course of a year.

No one ever claimed a tsunami lasted an entire year. If you want to continue with this sort of nonsense, you can converse with someone else as it is detracting from intelligent discussion. (Perhaps Lasthero said something along those lines but I did not.)

I don't think I stipulated a time frame.

Animals surviving a catastrophe is not evolution.
The only replacing going on is what walked off the ark.
Nonsense. There is no such event recorded in the geological record.
We do have a fossil record of very quick deaths of millions of animals and fish.....don't we?
