Global Flood Evidence: A Place For Faith to Present Some

Faith - how does the global flood explain features of the earth like the Grand Canyon? You'd think that a body of water would provide more or less equal wear and erosion over an area, and not concentrate on a certain area more than the surrounding area to bore out rock and produce a canyon. Just a thought.

I want to see this continued but thought it would be impudent of me to make a thread. You should make a thread based solely on the slow deposition of sediments in PNT, and see how that goes.

Faith in message 83, you said about sediments:

quote:

---

all these DIFFERENT sediments, so dfiferent from each other. Different colors of limestone even. Each independently laid down in its own time period of millions of years.

---

- if the flood deposited the sediment, how do we get different layers with different types of sediments from one event? Different well defined layers? Wouldn't we expect to see one big layer instead of lots of different ones?If they were all formed at the same time, why do different layers return different radiometric dates?

Hi again Faith.

This is what is wrong with this whole argument. "What we expect" is pretty much meaningless (in relation either to a worldwide Flood or to evolution, since both are unobserved and unobservable and we have no way of knowing what conditions existed in the distant past}, but it's the level on which the whole argument is conducted. I have no idea how we get different layers with different types of sediments from the Flood, but there are creationist theories that try to explain it and they are intelligent theories.

---

You are saying that different layers with different sediments are "Terrific evidence" for the flood, correct? Then shouldn't "Terrific evidence" show us what we should expect to find? Terrific evidence for a flood SHOULD be one big layer, shouldn't it? We don't have that. We have many different layers. So I don't see how different layers of sediment is evidence for the flood?May we see some of these Creationist theories? If they exist?

In contrast with all the speculative musings about how this or that might have formed, the abundance of fossils throughout the earth remains TERRIFIC evidence for a worldwide Flood.

You may have answered this already, but why does the abundance of fossils throughout the earth support a worldwide Flood rather than animals living (and dying) globally?Thank you for your time
