Biogeography falsifies the worldwide flood.

Some book I read recently - and I don't remember which book it was - documented that these large tortoises can float for weeks on end without starving. So floating around randomly explains how they got distributed widely. I would presume that the reason they occurred only on various islands is that egg- or young-eating mammals, absent from these islands, wiped them out if they colonized mainland locations.

Cut him some slack, Randy. I'm sure many creationists, even very biologically sophisticated ones like Dr. Hovind, regard platyhelminths, nematodes, acorn worms, and earthworms as all members of the Wormy Kind. Probably maggots and caterpillars, too.

So kangaroos can choose to reproduce that way, I guess? And marsupials decide to have radically different DNA from placentals, and that weird extra bone sticking forward from their pelvis....
Amazing.

I claim that you're full of crap clear up past your eyeballs, Robert. 'Bye.

Actually, it's a steaming pile of horseshit, not an impressive theory. Steam is about as resistant to compression as air is, y'know.And even if it were low tine at Sumatra, what tide do you think it would be on Sri Lanka? Eastmost Africa? The tsunami hit those places too.

You actually don't want to tangle with either tsunamis or tusamis. They'll both wreck your entire day.

Erupting at about 800 degrees F if they were 10 miles down. Boiling the living crap out of the Ark and its contents, even if "gopher wood" is Bible Code for "asbestos and thermos bottles."And water is only liquid to 705 degrees F at about 3000 psi - that's its critical point. Quit talking gibberish, please. It sets my teeth on edge.

At above 705 degrees and 3000 psi, water is a "supercritical fluid" - much like steam, but denser and more viscous. Its properties are more gas-like than liquid-like.And granite won't float on it.
