Did the Flood really happen?

Those erosional and depositional features will not exist long. We need to think about something larger and more permanent. The oceanic water and oceanic basins ARE the evidences. Edited by Juvenissun, : No reason given.

Why not? How are they evidence?You need to do more than just post random opinions. You need to back up what you say.

Flood deposits are loose sediments, they will be quickly washed away.
Flood entrench channels will last longer. But they will also be eroded away within one million years or so.I am repeating what I said. There is no qualified question to push me say anything more than that. It is not what I don't say. It is what you don't ask. I am NOT going to give any more information which you do not understand.

And they'll be deposited somewhere else. Who's talking about a million years? The flood only lasted one year. And it couldn't have been more than a quarter-million years ago because there were no people. If I ask and you don't answer, that's a reflection on you, not on me. If you don't answer, it looks like you don't know. Then you're wasting your time here.

Then you will not recognize it as flood sediments.

Why not? They're still deposited during the Flood.

Sediments deposited during the global flood are no different from any sediments we can see in our normal environment. Gravel, sand, mud, etc. The only way to tell that they are flood sediments is to look at their depositional structure. So, once the original deposit is moved (eroded and redeposited), the original structure is destroyed. They can not be recognized as flood sediments any more (they become river sediments or lake sediments or marine sediments etc. )I always try to answer genuine questions. Otherwise, may be not.

They should be. They should be much more widespread than river sediments or lake sediments. Even if there is no single contiguous layer that covers the whole earth, there should be vast areas that are easily distinguishable from lake sediments and river sediments.

No. They are normal material. Once relocated, they don't have any tag to show the origin.However, your idea is good. There might be something in the sediments which can be used as a tag of the global flood. We do not know what it is. But this thread may deserve some study. However, it is not likely to find any support for the project.

Sure they do. The chemical composition will give clues to where they came from. A flood is not a magic eraser that removes all evidence.

Think: where did those sediments come from? They were sediments on the ground BEFORE the Flood. Why would they be different from other sediments on the ground?

Some of them were eroded BY the flood. Because different sediments come from different formations. Some of them come from sandstone, some come from limestone, etc.

They are normal sediments just like sediments laid down everywhere and every day.

That doesn't seem likely. The amount of sediment depends on how much material was in the water, how much water there was and for how long, etc. The Bible Flood would have had vast amounts of material in vast amounts of water settling out for a long time. We would expect a very deep set of layers to form before the water receded. The receding water would erode the fesh sediment to some extent but not enough to remove all traces.It seems like you're just making excuses for the fact that there IS no evidence of the Flood.

It is quite amusing to see a layman's argument on geological process.How much sediments is available for deposition? They are in the same amount as the current soil on the surface. More precisely, they are the part of pebble, sand in the soil. The mud in the soil will suspend in water and be carried to the ocean and deposited in the ocean.So if you average out the amount of soil material and re-pave it on the surface, it would be much. May be a foot?How do I explain to you that loose sediments DO NOT stay on land for long (say, 100 years)? How about rain. Rain will easily wash them around and eroded them away, or redistribute them to river channel.
