Hi Dr,

As to their honesty, I make no claims; I merely point out that they say they're offering an alternate interpretation of the data when this is not in fact what they're doing. Personally I have always inclined to believe that they are deluded rather than deceptive, my argument being: if they can fool others, why not suppose that they have also fooled themselves?
They actually believe what they preach. Most have been deluded by a few people that have made a fortune selling their beliefs to the masses.
All the things of the flood mentioned here is held by YEC'S which make up a small portion of people who believe in the Biblical flood of Noah. They are a very vocal group about their beliefs.
They have no Biblical scripture to support the catastrophic events they say took place during the flood. Zero text.
The Bible says the entire land mass was covered by at least 15 cubits of water.
The Bible says it rained for 40 days and 40 nights and the fountains (springs) of the deep were opened up.
The Bible in the flood story does not say anything about catastrophic techtronic plate movement. or volcanic eruptions.
If those are the things you guys want to argue against you need to find YEC creationist to argue with.
Since they are saying they are arguing what the Bible says I simply ask for the scripture that supports their assertions that those catastrophic events took place.
To sum up they are arguing that the Bible says something that is not in the Bible.
My question to you and anyone else here that cares to answer is:
Is there any known land mass that is visible today that has not been covered with water at sometime in it's past?
God Bless,
