What is flood geology?
Let's try to get this thread onto a constructive basis. The opening post is not really an outline of the topic but more an invitation to Portillo to discuss his ideas about flood geology. In my moderator role I promoted this thread because Portillo has attempted to discuss flood geology in threads on other topics, and though I invited him several times to propose a thread on flood geology he never did so. So when Dr Adequate proposed a flood geology thread for him, even though this is not the ideal way to begin in thread, in the hope that it would help reduce the number of off-topic posts in other threads I promoted it.
But Portillo has not yet joined in to outline his position on flood geology, and he may never do so. And so I ask someone else to take on this task. It doesn't matter if that person is an evolutionist or a creationist, but I will hide the content of any message that isn't a sincere, honest and *accurate* attempt to do so from a creationist perspective.

Re: What is flood geology?
As they say, no good deed goes unpunished. Thanks for taking this on, I thought it was very well done. You can resume thinking frontwards now.

Moderator Request
I'm a participant in this thread and so cannot actively moderate, but I do have a request. Kofh2u has recently begun participating in nine different threads, and in the one's I've checked he's been both nonsensical and off-topic. I suggest ignoring him in this thread. I will be actively moderating him in those threads where I am not a participant.

Re: Moderator Request
Hi Kofh2u,
I'm not moderating this thread and so have no enforcement powers here, but if you could be so nice as to cease participating in this thread then it would be greatly appreciated.
In the meantime, I encourage others not to respond to your posts.
Over the course of time I have found that it is not within my power to convince those spouting nonsense that they are spouting nonsense, so I will not make the attempt. But hopefully you are at least able to recognize that you're off-topic in this thread. If you're going to post nonsense, at least make it on-topic nonsense. This thread is about flood geology.

Re: Moderator Request
Hi Kofh2u,
Yes, this thread is about flood geology. If you'd like to discuss flood geology then I'm sure everyone welcomes your participation, but what you posted in your last message was about other things, for example:
kofh2u in Message 320 writes:
The 40,000 year ago "Out-of-Africa"theory which supports a massive and successful emmigration out of Africa after numerous exodus and returns as Ice Ages came and went is further supported by the most recent genetic study that claims all men living today are related to just one man, presumably this Noah type, who lived 40,000 years ago.
There's nothing in that excerpt nor in the rest of your post about flood geology. You're off topic.
As I've said, I'm not acting as moderator in this thread. We have a number of active threads and only a few moderators who cannot be everywhere, so since I'm a participant here I'm just trying to make sure you're not surprised if actions are taken at some point. If you keep this up then you will lose your posting permissions in this forum, the Geology and the Great Flood forum, or you will be suspended for increasingly long periods of time, or both.
If you'd like to discuss your "out-of-Africa" ideas or any related ideas, then you should propose a new thread over at Proposed New Topics.
