If someone cannot accept this ^, then it is because there is something else stopping them. It is no longer a discussion of reason, science or evidence, but rather a discussion of personal feelings.
I'll tell ya, when i first was exposed to plate tectonics and uniformitarianism, I was devastated. I felt betrayed, I felt hurt, I felt defeated, and upset.
Because it felt like society, my friends, my family, my fellow people, had betrayed me. As if they had lied to me, about creation. I was really hurt.
But when you take that step, and you give plate tectonics a chance, and you test the ideas and study it and learn about it, you will find an entire world of scientific truth, and further, Gods enlightening truth, before you, Gods truth shown in ways that never before could ever be understood in such a beautiful way.
I was afraid of the unknown, afraid that i would leave God forever. But I came out in love with my God, and in awe of His power and beautiful creation, in ways that "flood geology" people will never see or know, or ever experience. and for that, I thank my Lord every day.
Best of luck to you @mindlight
