Re: Updated - Feb 2nd 2004
The Greenland cap is in excess of 10,000 feet thick, and the preliminary layer count from the drill core there is at 125,000+years, with no layer indicating any immersion in water, salt or otherwise. The creationists on the Netscape CvsE board tried to tell me the layers were individual snow storms. When that failed, they tried to divide the mean annual snowfall into 10,000 feet to show the cap was much younger than claimed. Apparently, they've never heard of compaction.

I've been told the same thing: that the Bible is literal except where it's metaphorical.
​
Right.
​
A literal metaphor. Oxymoron anyone? I've started to wonder if English is their second language, or if they all have thte same strange, revisionist dictionary.
