Why is anyone still trying to respond to dad in a serious way?
Exactly.

Just let him post. No one is obliged to respond to all points of disagreements with him. When that happens, it becomes a distraction to the discussion, and derails the thread.

So, let's stay on topic in this thread. :)

You are being a difficult person. Any sea bed (a portion of any size & of your choosing) might have risen to WITHIN 22 feet, of the waters surface, at the height of the FLOOD, as a plateau, and your little marine friends might have been saved in that way. They might have clung to a whale or floated in debris. We can also equate that if the entire surface of the earth was smooth, and the sea bed were even with the land that the oceans and seas ALONE contain enough water to inundate the entire surface of the planet earth to a depth of 3 miles. It is just a matter of mathamatics..... The salinity and freshness varied from area to area, as it can now.depending on what the fountains of the deep represented.....
So the ground floated to a point of 22 feet below the surface of the flood waters? :scratch:

It is possible that an upheaval could have lifted any portion or portions of sea bottom to prevent it from being exposed to excessive water pressure.:sigh:

So... the sea bottom was exposed to excessive water pressure from above and below?

Explain that in detail without the sighing. I don't want any smart-alec remarks, patronizing, sighing or crying. I want you to think through your explanations.

How, when pressures increase against the ocean floor, does the ocean floor rise?

If you don't have an answer, just admit you're making this stuff up as you go along, and bow out of this discussion.

When tectonic plates fractured and a bulge in the earth's surface may have been created. Also, one plate simply could have slid under another....
If all you can say is "what" I'll take that as you not being serious....

I feel, just as the deep sea diver, fish were able to adapt to changing environmental conditions over time. The diver must come up slowly or he will likely die. Salmon move from salt to fresh water. Has an experiment ever been done? I hate the heat and yet by August , it isn't so bad. I can't stand the cold, but by February, it isn't so bad...
except for the fact thats now how it works with fish
