My understanding of the Pre-flood was a very different place from what we are seeing today. The earth was much smoother without the mountains. There must have been some sort of pressurzation to the planets atmosphere. As evidenced by numerous large insects that have been fossilized,( 6ft centipedes, dragon flies with 50 inch wing spans, ect.) The only way they could get so big is in a hyperbolic atmosphere. There is no other explaination because their size is directly related to how much air can be absorbed through the sphericals in their skin. It rained for 40 days and nights- that could have been an Ice shell around the earth (held up by the meisner(magnetic)effect) breaking up. That would explain alot as to how we have skeletons of people 10-12' tall, legends of people living to be 900+ years old, and the large insects, for various reasons. This is also proved out by air bubbles found in amber. These bubbles have roughly twice the oxygen and CO2 than is found today. That makes these things very possible- including 300' tall trees found 10,000' down in the Gulf of Mexico by people drilling for oil.
The fossilized seashells found on the top 3000' of Mt Everest have one very interesting feature. The clams were alive when they were buried, as evidenced that they are CLOSED. I have spent alot of time in and around water- if a clam is dead- it's open. 3000 ft worth of clams buried alive in sediments then they were lifted up. Bent rock layers found all around the earth also concur with this POV of sediment layers being laid down, then being dramtically heaved shortly there after. Not to mention sedimentay layers of rock that run across the continent. However that does not explain how the water kept going up for 120 days. That would have to be the fountains of the deep (i.e. aquifiers) breaking up. If the earth was smoother there is certainly enough water to cover it. Roughly 3000' deep at it's shallowest point. Since there are trillions of fossilized fish found in chalk layers, and diatoms die off and make chalk at @ 1 inch every 1000 years- something very radical had to happen for fish and whales to be totally encompassed and fossilized before they decayed or were eated by bottom feeders. These deposits of chalk are found at or near breeches like the San Andres Fault. They even found a teradactyl with a 50' wing span there, along with a baleen whale. So what happened? I think the fountains of the deep blasted though at these points with heated water and dropped everything in range, (Crank up the heat in your fish tank and see how fast they die. It doesn't take a lot). Water deep underground could be quite hot and certainly pressurized, just like the oil deposits we find today. Once those broke open there would certainly be enough to cover the earth. Well now we have water over the top of the caverns that used to hold water. What is going to happen with all that weight? The caverns would reasonably collapse forming the oceans to the continental shelf. By the way, if it just came to the continental shelf you could walk ANYWHERE in the world.Since the Oceans are gaining ground every year, I think it is reasonable to think that they were shallower at one time. Getting deeper as the ice at the poles is melting off. At the same time- while the surface plates dropped on the ocean side, the mountains would be lifted on the continent side. Ever wonder why mountain ranges follow the coast they're nearest to?
Well you see it is quite possible for this to happen. And it had to happen quickly as evidenced by the fossil, and geological record. I think the biggest hinderence to the truth is not opening up to possibilities beyong what is currently the status quo. The misinterpretation of the forming of the Grand Canyon is probably the greatest Hoax presented and currently pushed, inspite of the facts drawn out during and after the Mt. St. Helens eruption. Besides I'm still looking for someone to explain how the river flowed uphill thousands of feet to cut through the uplift that forms the Grand Canyon? ANYBODY????
Anyway, it is quite possible for a worldwide flood to have happened- you just have to think and let the facts bring you to your conclusions- not the other way around. If you were in R&D for 20+ years as I have been- you would understand how critical that process is to finding the truth as it is, not how we would like it to be. I'm sure 100 years from now ( if we're still here) there will be people arguing that light has always moved at it's present rate- even though the folks at Harvard have managed to not only slow it down, but indeed stop it all together, Then release it. They will argue, if for nothing else, to protect the notion that the universe is Billion and Billions,( read that as Once upon a time), of years old. Not because it is the absolute truth- but because it meet's their need of not having be open to options they may not like to have to deal with. Trust me- Not having a Creator to deal with would not be a problem- but then Adolph would have been right- Cull the weak and undesirable for the good of the whole. Yet that isn't acceptable to most- why is that?
Either way- something very radical happened here @ 4400 years ago. The population of the earth, the age of the deserts, the oldest living trees all point to that time period as well as the various sites, like Stonehedge, around the world which show the earth got bumped about the same time. The sites, when graphed, show a wobble in the rotation of earth. The same frequency is seen in a spinning top that has been bumped. Something happened then. The flood seems to me, to be the best explaination for the total picture.
Besides if we Evolved, how come there are @ 720 worldwide flood legends all telling basically the same story? Oh wait, I know, there was a prehistoric monkey convention where they all got together on Pangea. Thats where it came from. At the same time they all got buckets shovels,(or their ansestoral counterparts, I'm sure we will find it in the fossil record sooner or later. If not, well nothing has ever stopped us from making it up where we needed to, RIGHT?) and added the 40% of land mass to Africa it's now magically gained since breaking up. And since they were there, they added Central America too since that is missing in Pangea. At least they had the common sense to make it large enough that we could still see their work after millions of years of the oceans rising. Those were some smart monkey's.
