Summations Only

Yet it is impossible for a flood to lay down the rocks in the order that they exist in reality and you have never presented any model, method, mechanism, process or procedure that would allow a flood to lay down the rocks in the order found in reality.The Biblical Flood stories in the Bible as simply plot devices made up by the men who created and first told the tales. They never happened.All you have is the dogma of your Cult and even in the Bible itself that is contradictory and mutually exclusive.

So when you walk into the painted room and stick your finger into the new layer of paint, do you cry out "This isn't the next layer of paint! It's fresh and sticky! It's nothing like the other layers! They're dry and this is wet! The painting stopped yesterday! Those other layers were put on the wall in a completely different way! They're not wet like the top layer!"Oh, yeah, right. That's exactly what you do.

Faith does not see tomorrow, either. Time does not exist in Faith's world. The earth is a static, dead planet.

The strata are nothing like layers of paint. Show me a new sedimentary rock layer that is anything like the Geological Column layers, in horizontal straightness and flatness and especially in extent. It doesn't exist. Your analogy to paint is ridiculously inadequate.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

I don't see anything "static" about a planet that started out absolute idyllic perfection and was then destroyed by water and is now always crashing around with earthquakes and volcanoes and hurricanes and the like. All the result of God's judgment against human sin. It is now a huge graveyard since the Flood, but the planet itself is a little too active to describe as "dead."

Thank you for doing precisely what I predicted. You have just stated that the wet layer isn't dry.

Sometimes it seems all that goes on here is semantic obfuscations and ridiculous straw man arguments like yours. No there is no similarity to your wet paint analogy in what I said.

It's called The Rock Cycle Faith.

quote:

---

A river carries, or transports, pieces of broken rock as it flows along. When the river reaches a lake or the sea, its load of transported rocks settles to the bottom. We say that the rocks are deposited. The deposited rocks build up in layers, called sediments. This process is called sedimentation.

​

The weight of the sediments on top squashes the sediments at the bottom. This is called compaction. The water is squeezed out from between the pieces of rock and crystals of different salts form.

​

The crystals form a sort of glue that sticks or cements the pieces of rock together. This process is called cementation.

​

These processes eventually make a type of rock called sedimentary rock. It may take millions of years for sedimentary rocks to form.

Odd that you bring up semantic obfuscation. Could you please explain in some detail how a layer that needs to be buried and compressed to acquire its defining characteristics, could be "new" and "on top"?

The Sahara. It's not quite done yet. It needs to get covered up and squished flat. Shouldn't take long.

Doesn't that make your analogy even more ridiculous?

Interesting. The paradigm problem is more difficult than even I had imagined. Obviously the only way to deal with this is just to ignore the conventional paradigm and elaborate the YEC paradigm. Elsewhere.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Put it in the mail with the rent cheque.Laughable.

Correct. You can only sell the YEC position to the willfully ignorant and dishonest.Young Earth has no chance among people willing to learn or with even a small amount of honesty.

Okay, thanks. I won't put any more effort into figuring out what Faith meant, unless she decides to explain.--Percy
