How's it a 'dilemma'?
I guess they do demonstrate the Flood story to be a myth, yes.Perhaps a better word would be "myth".
Well I'm convinced. Do you have a newsletter?bob b said:Perhaps a better word would be "myth".
:chuckle:Well I'm convinced. Do you have a newsletter?
Is there something absent from geological layers and their fossil contents that today's scientists expected to find?Perhaps a better word would be "myth".
Bob is grasping for straws again. How suprising.
You break fewer bits if you go slow.
You can drill really fast but when the bit breaks you have to pull the whole thing all the way back up to change it out.
I think that's the dilema he's talking about.
I think the solution is to go steady.
How's it a 'dilemma'?
The dilemma is how the sedimentary geological layers were formed in the first place.
A slow accumulation is not seen in the world today to any great extent except at river deltas and continental margins.
Before the wave of intense exploration of the ocean starting in the 1950s it was believed that the accumulation had occurred in the oceans or else in hypothetical shallow "inland seas".
Now that more is known about the oceans it is time to revisit this "dilemma".
There is no way that an extended period of accumulation can account for any of the numerous sedimentary deposits that show distinct uniformity in the patterns of their layers or almost complete homogeneity.
There is absolutely no way millions of years of slow accumulation could account for the mixed grain size deposits commonly found.
There is almost no way a fossil could be trapped by deposits that aren't sudden and catastrophic.
If there are millions of years to account for through the history of the Earth, they aren't in the rocks.
No. I said the deposits I mentioned were not generated by a steady, slow accumulation. I presented no evidence at all let alone against the Earth being millions of years old.So you are saying that millions of years of water and floods on the surface of this planet could not have caused the strata, but a single global flood only a few thousand years ago could?
Do you think they'll stop by and engage in meaningful debate?It is strange that experts in this area don't agree with you.
