Re: More proof of the Flood

The fossil evidence of seashells on top of Mt. Everest, the highest land in the world is clear evidence that the Biblical deluge happened. This corresponds perfectly with the Bible.

Genesis 7:20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.

So here we have a case of fossil evidence confirming the reality of the literal Genesis creation and what do the atheist scientists come up with to counter it? "Plate Tectonics", a truly laughable theory.

I ask you atheist scientists out there, if plate tectonics is true, then how come it was suppressed and ignored for many years? I did my research on it. It was invented by a German weatherman named Alfred Wegner. So here we have a theory started by a guy who doesn't even specialize in the field of geology. Now, the theory started floating around and the scientific establishment laughed at it. Then, suddenly in the 1960's, you started to accept it. Why?

Seems to me that if the theory was so logical and explained geology so well, scientists would grab at it in a heartbeat.

The second point I want to mention is how the theory defies common sense. So basically continents are giant plates floating on an ocean of magma. But from what I understand, magma is the same thing as lava, and you can't float on lava. If you were to jump into a pool of lava, you wouldn't be able to stand on it -- you would sink and burn instaneously. Now imagine how many billions and billions of tons heavier a continent is! How can a continent float on lava when everything sinks in lava? Also, wouldn't the lava melt away the continent eventually?

Think about it. If you throw a rock into a pool of lava, it sinks and melts. Yet these scientists are saying, No, this rock will float on the lava and not melt.

Who are you going to believe? The Bible which is backed up by fossil evidence...or scientists who come up with absurd theories which make no sense when put under the scrutiny of common sense?

Re: More proof of the Flood

I think he claims that the continents are like some giant cruse ships floating on this magma. I, for one, am glad its nonsense as I get seasick real easily.

If these plates we live on are floating around why don't we move to a warmer climate? We could tie lines to tug boats on pull the US to say where Hawaii is, now that would be much warmer than Iowa

Re: More proof of the Flood

I think that the drawing that WFC did is saying that Everest is a volcano and magma is made of seashells. It's an interesting thought but a little far-fetched for my liking.

Re: More proof of the Flood

We are aware of those theories, but we think they are wrong for two reasons. One reason is that it would take milions of years for something like that to happen and the Bible clearly states everything is about 6000 years old. Another reason is that God created the mountains when he created earth. More details on this are in Genesis.

Additionally, why would there be convection of "magma" under the earth? What would be driving it? Of course, no evolutionist who bothers to answer such a worthy question.
This is because the theory of Plate Tectonics is a lie of Satan! All there is below the earth is Hell, and them volcanoes are just childish tantrums of Satan when another person escapes his clutches and accepts Jesus as his Lord and Saviour(tm)!

Re: More proof of the Flood

Then you don't know atheists very well. Mountains are formed by tectonic plates pushing together and forcing the rock upwards. This can be seen by by looking at the strata - it is no longer horizontal, but angled. The sea bed has been push upwards for millions of years.

See here

The Himalayas are still rising as the plates push up - by 10mm a year in some places. There is, of course, a huge amount of evidence for all of this, but no doubt I will be shouted doubt - not with counter-evidence but with the bible, which is not be questioned, and the mysterious "amen to that", whoch proves everything!

These questions have been answered already. Please read previous posts before asking the same stupid questions again.

Let me see if I have this right. You reject the Flood, even though

(1) its in the Bible, and
(2) People has seen floods, even if they are smaller

while accepting the nonsensical explanation that mountains MOVE !

Who has seen a mountain move?

Don't talk nonsense. That would have taken millions of years and we all know earth is only 6000 years old.

Re: More proof of the Flood

Amazing! How can people keep denying the Great Flood when there is no other possible way seashells could have gotten to the top of Mount Everest!

If I know the atheists, they'll say that there is no PROOF of seashells on mountains because they cannot SEE the seashells on the mountain!

Re: More proof of the Flood

I always find it amazing that some people will believe atheist scientists over the WORD of GOD.

So do I. Who could possibly know better than God?

Re: More proof of the Flood

Don't be stupid, that is atheist hogwash.

Genesis 1:9-10 "And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good."

I took God 1 day to create those mountains. How long did it take your atheist friends?

Re: More proof of the Flood

This is really interesting.

Please where did you find this evidence?

Would you disagree that the shift of tectonic plates that cause such regions could not be held responsible for this, if your evidence is true?

First-hand evidence is in the Bible, of course. The seashells on top of Mt Everest provide additional evidence. And plate tectonics cannot be responsible for the seashells, as many millions of years are needed to form a mountain range like the Himalayas, and the earth is only 6000 years old, which is much too short.

Praise!
