On another thread, hawkes nightmare wrote the following:
...if the continents moved at the current rate(about 1.5 cm a year) at the beginning of the world, america would have crashed into asia, britain would be where America is, Antatctica would be at the north pole, and Africa would be where antatctica is now. the distance between boston and London is over 3000 miles. the billions of years during the evolutionary period, would provide 28000 miles of drift. the world would look MUCH different than it already does.
now i know that pangaea broke up in the jurassic period, and i just did the math and it still comes out to less than half of where we are now. there is other evidence too though. the earth's rotation is slowing down. we are moving farther from the sun. the moon is moving farther from us due to lack in gravity. which all concludes that at the beginning of time, the earth rotated much, much faster, and that we were VERY close to the sun. those combined together make the earth uninhabitabe by ANYTHING up until 125 miles in space closer to the sun than our current position. now i'm too lazy to look anything more up so you'll have to do it yourself, and do the math. but i'm estimating that we were approximately where mercury currently is, and the days would be going as fast as you can snap your fingers. one hundred years from now, the day will be 2 milliseconds longer than it is now. i just did the math(on a calculator) and the days at the beginning of earth's history would be 252.2222..... hours faster. that's about ten minutes. so evolution CAN't be true and the flood obviously happened.
Since discussion of these points would be off topic in the original thread, I propose a thread wherein a full-blown free for all and food fight can ensue, during which these points can be beaten to death once again.
