I'm imagining that the cultures that were around when the world wide flood not only missed the flood but didn't notice all those mountains going up and down as well?Another imaginary assumption? It seems it happened through the days of Peleg.
God raised the mountains and lowered the valleys that covered the earth. That's your reality. What you choose to do with it is your issue, but willful ignorance usually isn't the best way to go.
Not if it was required for Noah to replenish the earth, as he was told to do.wouldn't that be deceit on God's part?
Because they drowned?I'm imagining that the cultures that were around when the world wide flood not only missed the flood but didn't notice all those mountains going up and down as well?
Yes, indeed!The earth before the flood is a completely different earth.
The earth before the flood was a single land mass with the waters (ocean) surrounding the earth.
After the flood the single land mass was broken up into multiple land areas, possibly what we have today.

Have you ever listened to any of Chuck Missler's tapes, or watched any of his videos?Those cultures were all wiped out. The only people left were the 8 on the ark.

I already posted the Bible verses but here they are again as well as a link to read.
Genesis 1
6 And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.
Genesis 7:11
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.
Psalm 18:11
11 He made darkness His secret place;
His canopy around Him was dark waters
And thick clouds of the skies.
2 Peter 3
5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed.
"The waters above" were called mabbul, a specific Hebrew designation to distinguish the canopy from the waters below.

**************************************************************************Or you say the old testament is part History & Myth. I tend to lean more on the new testament. Every culture has history and the old testament tells the history of the Jewish people. Every culture on the planet has there own myths and legends. For me the bible is book that helps guide you on having a relationship with god.
**********************************************************************Science facts are like dominoes. If you knock over the first one the others fall too!
creationists tend to forget that! Which is the reason their pseudoscientific explanations don’t work
Jack, or these were stories of local floods that people exaggerated out of terror . Look at the wildfires out west . I couldn’t imagine living through that as I live nowhere near there .
I suppose if my great great great x 100 greats grandparents had lived through an environmental catastrophe, that it would have become part of the extended family lore.

That would be like the pseudo-scientific explanations of evolution thenEvolution fails the 2nd Law of thermodynamics and basically fails the scientific method.
I will repeat myself on what I said in an earlier post. There were no high mountains and there were no plate tectonics pre Noah's flood. There was a layer of water between the crust and mantle. The crust split sending super heated water into the atmosphere where most fell back as rain. The splitting of the crust created the tectonic plates that we know and love to this day and they began to move crashing into each other creating the mountain ranges of today.
It's been awhile since I listened to him too.A long time ago I did. From memory, I think he was basically sound? I know I disagreed with him on somethings - although it may well be a blue moon before I agree 100% with anybody lol.But yeah too many years ago and it's possible I might disagree with him even more now.
What is your take on him?
Then why do we die. If evolution can harness this energy from the sun ... so much so that it overcomes the Second Law of Thermodynamics, what goes wrong?We get energy from the sun.
**************************************************************************8the 2nd law is about a closed system . Earth isn’t a closed system. We get energy from the sun. It would be nice if creationists actually learned real science instead of spouting off half remembered and poorly written creationist pseudoscience.

Ahh the old 'closed system/open system bogeyman'. I am sorry but the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics applies in ANY system you care to make up. We must admit that the proponents of evolution were quite clever to come up with these terms but it is just a statement with no proof or real world examples. Let us make this personal a bit. You and I are succumbing to the 2nd Law every day. Yes our bodies are descending into chaos. We call it dying. When some little bit finally goes wrong enough we go to the doctors and they, being the outside intelligence, fix us up. DO we not live in this so called "open" system.
Evolution is still a pseudoscience which fails the 2nd Law and fails basic scientific method.
