Re: what must be seen
I suspect you are a club of one in your belief about two floods in the Bible. You've never mentioned anyone else who shares that understanding.
In any case, if you are going to impose on me your own interpretation of the Bible which I absolutely reject, perhaps discussion is simply impossible and I should opt out of this thread. Knowing how bizarre and singular your view of the Bible is, is the reason I didn't join this thread when it was originally posted, and hesitated this time too. What's the point? You have an invented Bible and and invented Christianity and I adhere to the real one.
Also, reducing the Flood to ONE LAYER of the strata is beyond absurd.
All that appears to make it impossible to discuss the Flood.

Re: Strata in South Africa
The entire geological column isn't everywhere, true, and South Africa seems to have an extremely short stack of layers for some reason, -- Australia's are also rather short, so perhaps most of them washed away in the deep southern hemisphere or the deposition methods were different for some reason -- but what interested me was whether there was any place on earth where strata didn't form at all and I didn't find any, though my research was not exhaustive.

Re: Events seen round the world --- change leaves evidence
Yes there are some time periods that are marked by more than one layer, and some of the layers are mixtures but not many, and the overall fact remains that the geologic column is characterized by discreet separate sediments, each time period marked by its own sediment or sediments, and that is what makes no sense.

Re: Events seen round the world --- change leaves evidence
Do you need me to post some of the hundreds of charts of the geologic column to prove I didn't make it up?

Re: what must be seen
The entire stack of strata wherever they are found is evidence for the global Flood, and their fossil contents clinch it as the killer of all living things it aimed to be.

The nitpicking nonsense on this thread is getting out of control. I don't see any reason to continue this travesty unless somebody comes up with something meaningful. But Science at EvC appears to be a very silly manipulative thing - in debates with creationists that is -- so I'm not holding my breath.

Re: Moderator Clarifications
She rejects the possibility of contemporary sedimentary layers forming in fresh water and marine environments, such as off coastlines, in shallow seas, and in the deep ocean.
Just to clarify, I don't reject the fact that these things are occurring, I reject the claim that they in any way represent how the Geologic column was built.

Re: Events seen round the world --- change leaves evidence
Your tiresome lecture about your own point of view is not what is needed here. "You're wrong because science says so" is ridiculous since that's what I'm answering. You haven't addressed anything I've said or tried for half a second to see how it makes sense, you've merely invoked your own belief system, sung the praises of the evo-OE creed.
This thread is a joke.

Re: Events seen round the world --- change leaves evidence
No appreciation for the immense implications of the "water and dirt" you address so slightingly. No you have NOT thought about it, don't fool yourself.
The sooner this shameful excuse for a debate thread is put out of its misery and given a decent burial the better.

Re: To try to help Faith.
May I recommend that you and Dr. A carefully read what Percy posted as Admin above. This thread is done.

Oh well, this thread got even worse today. Mere assertions of establishment science are treated as evidence, repeated statements are accepted though they had already been answered many times. I'm treating this thread as closed, doesn't much matter what anybody else does with it since it's all just one loud chorus of aren't we wonderful and right.

No. Jar has a bogus reading of the Bible for starters and I should never have gotten on to a thread where he is pushing it. Arguing about what the one true Flood would have done is enough of a project without having to deal with his twisting of the whole Flood story.
And by now I should know better than to argue with you. Your tactics are deceitful.
"Brainwashing" was not brought up on this thread.
