Re: Sea mounts
Yeah, so you all say and of course you MUST be right because you were there and witnessed it.
No, we all know and have often demonstrated that eyewitness accounts are unreliable and events in the past leave traces.
We are right because the traces your scenario would leave aren't there and the traces our scenario would leave are there.
In any case, it would be nice to have it acknowledged that twenty feet a day is not the miles a day the anti-Floodists impute to creationists.
YEC's have all sorts of wacky fantasies. Walt Brown and John Baumgardner have the continents moving at many miles per day.

Re: Sea mounts
How have you determined this to be a reasonable conclusion?
You've been a YEC, you should know; she made it up because she's infalible and is never wrong.

Re: Sea mounts
I don't understand how anyone can get miles a day out of the simple problem of three thousand miles of distance covered in 4300 years.
Nobody does. Your fantasy doesn't incorporate miles per day, other YEC fantasies do. Waltie and Johnnie and many other YECs think all the continental movement happened during the fludde year.
Etewitness acciounts are certainly a lot more reliable than conjurings about the past from the present could possibly be
It's been proven, insofar as anything can be proven in science, that eyewitness accounts are unreliable.
But your claim that we cannot discover the past from the traces in the present is just an unsupported and disproven assertion.
