I can choose to not share in someone else's belief. I can reject it on the basis of the geological evidence not supporting their belief.

Just don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

i) I would never throw a baby out with bathwater .. that would be my choice.

ii) Your applying such a truism, (or aphorism), in the context of the belief in global flood, (which has no supporting geological evidence), is a flawed application, as doing so, requires the adoption of the belief in order for you to convey your meaning.

The truism/aphorism, thus, has zero impact on my choice of rejecting your now undisclosed/concealed, belief.

And yet you're doing that very thing.

If you disagree with me, let's see if I'm right.

Here's a comprehensive list, which said list includes the "baby:"

LIST OF FLOOD MYTHS

Simple YES or NO question:

Do you reject this entire list?

If not, which one do you adhere to?

If so, thanks for the QED.

From God's Point of View, All Things are Utterly and Completely Different than presented on forum.
Most, He Says Do Not Mess With Any of It. Man's Wisdom is <censored>.

But you're a man too, subject to man's wisdom. You don't know God's point of view.

There's no way that you know the mind of God. At most all you can know is the path to your salvation. And that's it!

Speak for yourself.

As for us:

1 Corinthians 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

Please don't edit my postings to suit your own beliefs .. I'm pretty sure that's a violation of forum rules protocols.

My reasoned view, is my reasoned view .. and I can choose to dismiss yours on the basis of those reasons.

Here’s an oral testimony from one who claims to have come into the earth in order to testify to the truth. Isn’t He a credible witness and source of evidence?


In the mean time, here is the witness to the truth that there was no Global Biblical flood:

Continents?

Where did those come from?

Looks like your picture was taken a day late (and a dollar short).

None of those can be easily and adequate explained by a global flood.

Also, all you're doing is showing pictures of the geological column. That's it.


I'm sorry. I thought dlamberth was still looking for a least one piece of evidence for a global flood. I didn't realize he was seeking an explanation also.

There's isn't any evidence of a global Biblical flood. And you haven't shown any. If your claiming the geological structures in the picture are examples, all your doing is showing your lack of geological understanding.

But you're not presenting evidence. You're presenting a claim.
