Fossils, strata and the flood

Fossils on mountains are only evidence of a Noachian flood if you assume that the mountains have always been that high. Given that there are massive amounts of independent evidence showing that this is not the case, the only reason to make this assumption would be to save the flood myth. This, of course, would amount to circular reasoning.You are entitled to your own beliefs. You are not entitled to your own facts.

Not when they were mountains. Was the land that is now on top of the mountain ever covered in water? Yes, when it was at the bottom of a sea. Yes. I try not to clutter my mind up with valueless nonsense, although sometimes a bit sticks on until I can clean it off with mental toilet paper. Your prior avatar doesn't happen to have been one such sticky bit.
