Noah's Flood

[Brightmoon]

I’d ask the creationists which is the oldest rock and which is the youngest? . Which is the oldest fault H or the unlabelled one? Which is the oldest sedimentary rock and the youngest ? The oldest igneous rock and the youngest? Can you spot one of the unconformities? Can you see that you don’t have to have a radiodate to determine the relative ages and that these were not laid down at the same time ?

 

[Brightmoon]

Why?So?A natural flood, maybe; but not like the Flood in Noah's time.

Had God not documented it, it wouldn't even be suspected.Do you have a better idea as to why academia can't find evidence?

If so, let's hear it, please?

In your opinion, did God leave a scar behind, when He took out one of Adam's ribs?

Genesis 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

What would your wavelengths of light show there, on Adam's side?

actually the reason that academia can’t find the worldwide Flood is because it never occurred. Once naturalists in the 1700s realized that they could determine what happened geologically in the past , they went looking for the Flood . After hundreds of years they finally came to the conclusion that it never happened globally and geologists have mapped out these formations to the point that paleontologists know where to look if they want to look for transitionals between lineages. It’s how Shubin found Tiktaalik . He looked for rocks of the right age and near where close relatives had been found

The Bible says otherwise, so academia is wrong.

Either that, or Shubin had an Inuit guide show him where they existed, according to their legends.

 

[Job 33:6]

Yes, because Inuits have a known relationship with Chicago and Philadelphia Academies of natural science, and as soon as they heard Shubin talking about Tiktaalik, they rushed to get on the phone with him lol.

You've made some pretty ridiculous comments over the past couple years but this one is pretty high up there AV.

Ya ... make your jokes.

But if a Martian came to earth and asked where that "loch creature" was, where would you lead him?

 

[Brightmoon]

Since loch is a Scots word for lake I’d point him/ her/it there.

You are partially correct. We find in Psalms 104:6 the waters were indeed above the mountains, but then the next three verses we find He then caused the mountains to rise and valleys to sink, causing the waters to recede into their own places.

We aren't given the height of the preflood mountains. And given the height of what can see now that He calls mountains (Olives, Sinai, Gerizim, Ebal, etc...), they wouldn't have to be all that high.

It gets more fun because we now know we have an ocean under the ocean:
Underground ocean discovered below the Earth's surface • Earth.com

So that's where much of the excess water could have receded to, particularly if the flood was caused by sudden plate moment like a polar flip or something similar.

It sounds like there were mountains...not real tall...that were covered by 15 cubits. Then near the end or at the end of the flood there was great plate tectonics where mountains such as Mt. Everest rose up and the great ocean trenches sank.

. Did you actually read that ? This is water that’s part of the mineral structure. Iow it’s part of the rock . When tectonic plates subduct, they take water down with them . It’s not surprising that sub ocean rock minerals would have water . The combined oceans are several billion years old after all.


This is copper sulfate. When the water is in the crystal structure it’s a beautiful shade of turquoise. Note that it is NOT wet! When the water is removed from the crystal structure it’s white and it weighs less

. Iirc a cubit is about 45 inches long. They still sell fabric for sewing like that

Mountains get pushed up by plate tectonics and the really deep trenches form from subduction of those plates. This doesn’t happen fast as the forces involved would probably rip the earth apart

As I've explained to you numerous times and for some reason you still seem to ignore what really happened...recumbent folds show rapid folding of plastic rock. So, please stop with your old ideas.....climb out of your box.

rapid in geopolitical terms is still millions and millions of years

. Recumbent folds show plastic deformation due to 2 things.
1 slow bending due to tectonic plate movements that can bend solid rock
2 rapid shaking of wet sediments during an earthquake . They don’t have to be under water they just have to be a unconsolidated
They don’t look alike . Geologists can usually tell the difference even if creationists can’t

Maybe you should learn some real geology instead of creationist pseudoscience. The soft folds are Kelvin–Helmholtz folds. You can can see something similar in clouds cause by the same type of shear forces

Then extremely rapid.

i had to laugh that you actually tried to use this as an argument.

Strata below is supposed to be millions of years older than the sediment above it.

...but it is often found bent along with each other.

 

[Brightmoon]

57 That makes no sense could you put up a picture ?

All kinds of pictures here.....your claim seems to be liquification has created all of the recumbent folds.

The part you got right is that the strata was soft.

. Each of these layers were laid down at different times . They have different chemical and mineralogical signatures. Due to plate tectonics the layers sometimes get folded slowly . The Himalayas are an example of this as they were once flat sea floor . They’re still being pushed skywards by India pushing into the rest of Asia . That did take millions of years . The Appalachians were pushed up by Africa and Europe bumping into the east coast of the North America . Because the Appalachians are no longer being pushed up , they’re slowly eroding away.

liquification and being shaken rapidly in an earthquake created the Bottom folds. the top picture was due to tectonic plate movement slowly up pushing solid rock layers ( specifically not wet or unconsolidated ) gradually

The layers presented in the photo were layed down in the flood of Noah's time.

If it took millions of years to slowly seposit the sediment the place where the different sediment contacted each other would not be that smooth. This erosion you speak of would have created valleys and other features created by years of weathering.


Secondly bioturbation would have severly disturbed and mixed the meeting points of the slowly depositing sediment.....
