Did the Flood really happen?

What beliefs would those be?Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.

That's obviously false. For example, Darwin read Lyell's book on geology while he was on the voyage where he made his observations. He had no idea "what to look for" to back up a theory that he han't even thought of yet. And Lyell had no idea "what to look for" that would back up a theory that hadn't even been thought of yet.

There are threads and threads full of RAZD's correlations. Feel free to go over there and knock any of them out. It isn't just about rocks though. It's about lake varves and ice cores and tree rings.... Go ahead and explain how the age of a tree ring can just "happen" to correspond with the age of an ice core on the opposite side of the world.

You talked about fables and I pointed out that the fables (talking animals) are in the Bible, not in science. And fables are fiction, so I wasn't talking about anything that "used to exist".

Show us an example of how varves agree with tree rings somewhere say around 10,000 years ago. I'll look at it.

If you claim that communication with angels or Adam in the garden and animals is not true, then you need some proof.

Then they were pre origin science.

In the case of the evolution of life, the main belief is in a same nature in the past. (hence the radioactive decay, the rate of adaptation, the ways things fossilize, etc etc)

Sure. From Radiocarbon calibration curve spanning 0 to 50,000 years BP based on paired 230Th/234U/238U and 14C dates on pristine corals: (click to make it larger).

Well before we waste time on a past that might never have been, we'll need to hear your refutation of Last Thursdayism.

It's fiction.

Again, no such thing. Science is science. I just follows the evidence. It does not decide ahead of time - like you do - what the evidence "should" be.

You keep getting it backwards. We don't look for negative evidence. That would be like saying we can't find France so it doesn't exist. That kind of silly conclusion is for you, not for science.

I told you, it's all in RAZD's threads. You've had ample opportunity to look at it.

Ok, so it looks like a tree ring line goes 14,000 years. Can you give details? What trees are involved?(obviously not live ones)
