Just WHAT could they do TWO HUNDRED years ago to prove the Flood happened or not? AND what exactly are uniformitarians doing today to prove the Flood never happened? I feel strongly that you will find the answer to both to be the same------N O T H I N G. They were/are simply coming to their OWN conclusions and deductions through what they observe(d) and miss(ed) the point....

Maybe you missed everything Glenn Morton has ever posted. Let me remind you:

Buried River Channels disprove global flood (grmorton)
Creationists: Explain the rocks of the North Sea (grmorton)
Karsts and the flood. Things YEC leaders never show their followers (grmorton)
Meteor craters and the Flood year (grmorton)
Using the Loo in the Global Flood (grmorton)
Why was the flood so dry? (grmorton)
Termites, cicadas, dinosaurs and the flood (grmorton)

Just in case the original links are broken via copy/paste, you can find them all here.

Big words, Little Nipper. Perhaps you could account for all of the above via any global catastrophe model of your choice.

So in other words, every person who ever studied any geology for the last 200 years somehow missed what would be the first and most obvious thing in the studied strata and all missed out on the greatest scientific discovery of all time. Fancy that. Any evidence of this besides a link to drdino.com? I guess it's the massive athiest-materialist-secularist-evolutionist-liberal conspiracy to misread the observed data the world over.

You got it! If all they did was look and think, they obviously saw and thought wrong. How could someone miss out on a discovery that was already common knowledge? To make a NAME for ONE'S SELF one must come up with a counter claim. Charles Lyell was not a wonderful person. He practiced law and was enthusiastically a secularist, as was James Hutton. They were NOT interesed in finding the truth. Their aim was to become spokesmen for THEMSELVES and their counter secular claims. Does Satan love Jesus? What is the honest answer to that question?

I have a question for you:

When you read your own posts, do you feel embarassment and shame?

Btw, notice the artful dodging of LittleNipper who proclaimed a great deal about the ignorance of the modern scientific world. I gave him an opportunity to respond to *ANY* of Glenn Morton's posts on this board here, but he doesn't seem interested in that challenge.

Inquiring minds wonder whether Littlenipper is interested in anything other than spewing rhethoric. He claims facts are on his side, but doesn't seem to want to put that to the test. How convenient.

It seems odd to me that someone would think that Creationists and Christians would not take parody seriously or at least not see the implications.

Because they never have before, at least not the Creationists. Most Christians I've met are secure enough to laugh at themselves once in a while.

That's part of the reason I stopped telling YEC jokes: The YECs don't think they're funny and nobody else realized I was joking.

200 years ago, christian geologists were trying to identify which layers of strata were layed down by a global flood. by careful examination of the strata, they found that none of the layers could possibly have been layed down by a global flood. because they were basing their conclusions on the evidence, (not trying to twist the evidence to fit their predetermined conclusions, like modern creationists do) they were forced to conclude that no global flood ever occurred.

This probably wont make much sense because I don't remember it very well but I was watching a program on discovery about a massive lake of some sort which somehow managed to burst (I think it was because of an earthquake) around the same time as the flood apparently happened, the ammount of water that was released would have covered a vast ammount of area and may have seemed like a global flood but it was actually just a bloody big flood, but not by any means global.

After all the whole "world" would have seemed much smaller at the time of the flood because at that time much of the world wasn't explored yet. People also seem to have a nack for exaggerating things...

Well, the most obvious difference is that Judaeo/Christianity has factual historical roots that run for thousands of years prior to Norwegian Nordic folklore.

Not true


The Nordic creation scientists went "missing"

You really think the EAC doesn't have it's finger in more than one pie? You think they'd let evidence for norse creationism get out?

There is a warehouse full of dwarves and elves somewhere forced to spend all day and night crafting a 300ft gold statue of Darwin (the Atheist God) ready for when they finally destroy all other religions and take over.

I've said too much already.

Of course, except for the fact that evolution doesn't meet any cogent definition of the term.

Yes, it does. The study of evolution places faith on the abilities of man to figure out all problems and reasons given enough effort and time. Christians believe just the opposite. They see GOD as the only solution to everything. Both are accept on faith.
