"So far all you have presented are PRATTs (Points Refuted a Thousand Times)." Is this a PRATT? There are no two- three- or four-, five-, six-, etc.-celled organisms. It seems that there should be these in abundance, as transitional forms between single-celled and multi-celled organisms (multi-celled being things like plankton, algae, fungi, etc.)

"How do you think the grand canyon was formed?" Water erosion from the giant rushing of water piled up over Salt Lake City after the flood. But, if it was really eroded over 'millions of years', then why is it the only one? Was there only one river millions of years ago? It seems they'd have dug a canyon just as impressive, if not more impressive, than the Grand Canyon. Where are all these other river's canyons?

There are no two- three- or four-, five-, six-, etc.-celled organisms. Two celled.
Desmidoideae is a class of conjugating green algae, phylum Gamophyta. Most desmids form pairs of cells whose cytoplasms are joined at an isthmus (Margulis and Schwartz 1982, 100). The bacterium Neisseria also tends to form two-celled arrangements. As noted above, this may not be relevant to the evolution of multicellularity. CB922: Intermediate two-celled life Two to thirty-two celled.
The photosynthetic flagellate Gonium is a colonial intermediate between the free-living Chlamydomonas and the hollow ball-like colonies of Volvox, in that Gonium is a simple cluster of 2 to 32 Chlamydomonas-like cells embedded in a wad of gelatinous polysaccharides.

Okay, but still, how do you get from the two-celled thing to the thirty-two celled one without anything in between, like a four, eight, or sixteen. It is implied by the lack of these that nothing moved between single cell to the thirty-two cells to more complex organisms.

I'm sorry but what the hell does any of your nonsense have to do with the topic? Is there any chance you might someday actually address the topic which is, in case you missed it, "The world and evironment 5767 years ago." The flood is irrelevant. Multicelled critters are irrelevant. The topic is "The world and evironment 5767 years ago." Immigration has been a problem Since 1607!

CH581: Carving the Grand Canyon
quote: What do you mean the only 'one.' There are other canyons in the US. Plus rivers change over time, resulting in different areas being eroded. The Mississippi has changed course many, many times. There are now Civil war boats that cruised the river high on dry because of the river's course change.

quote: Told them what? The vast majority of flood stories differ in why, who, where and what happened. The only thing all of them share is water. Your argument of a near universal flood story is absolute bullshit.

Was there only one river millions of years ago? It seems they'd have dug a canyon just as impressive, if not more impressive, than the Grand Canyon. God must have been REALLY annoyed with the Martians then. He flooded Mars with a much bigger flood - it carved the Valles Marineris. quote: A massive flood in the last 6000 years or so on Mars? How exciting Anyway - I can't help but feel the thread is in danger of slipping of topic slightly. It might be a good idea to review the OP to check if we haven't drifted at all.

One more before I go back to topic...
I was simply saying that not everything I've stated is PRATTs. Okay, so, jar, what do you think the world was like 5767 years ago?

Pretty much like today. Every continent but Antarctica had been settled for tens of thousands of years. We had domesticated the horse and bridles had been invented. Technology was advancing rapidly and trade was very widespread. For more, read the thread.

Okay, that's very simple. A nice, easy thread. I believe that the population of humans was spreading under lots of environmental stress. They were probably spreading out fast, and making many inventions. Their efficiency at farming and herding was probably going up fast with the domestication of plants and animals.

Have you read the thread yet? It covers many of the then current civilizations.

I believe that men hadn't spread far enough to have civilizations, let alone different ones.
