The Noachian Flood is a geologic fact. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge, gain size distribution of deep sedimentary strata covering the earth, folded mountains with sediments sea shells on top (not destroyed by erosion in "millions of yrs), steep edges of the continrental shelves, upper and lower paleocurrents in the continents, fossil record (rapidly buried creatures), rate of continental and coastal erosion, shallow deep ocean sediments, and other evidences prove the flood and uniformitarianism false.

Il y a deux solutions : - ne rien faire et critiquer  - faire comme lui, prendre le risque d'expliquer les choses.

Je préfère la deuxième solution, alors je cherche à comprendre et non à critiquer.

@firejack007 - Facts are the most certain things we have: The sky is blue, fire needs air, animals have similar genes, etc. Theories, however, aren't simply guesses: they are explanations that are logically consistent and fit with and explain the relevant facts. A scientific theory is not a 'theory' as the word is used in common language to refer to a guess or conjecture.

[firejack007]

@Venaloid You answered your own question. theories are not the highest understanding. They are guesses. Facts are.

[Venaloid]

@firejack007 - What do you mean "still mere scientific theory"? Theory is the highest understanding in science; theories don't evolve into facts once we're really really sure of them.

[firejack007]

Much dealing with the Earth is still mere scientific theory. There's a lot we don't know.

At one point in his video demonstration, Neal Adams says that "plate tectonics" is a myth. Yes, he actually says that. Can you believe it?

[globbo100]

Neal Adams makes a much better comic book illustrator than he does an antediluvian geologist

[A1R5N1P3R]

There's more scientific evidence to support Neal Adams illustrations of a growing earth. Adams illustrations themselves are derived from theories first put foward by German geologistists. Do some digging (pun intended) for Neal Adams videos on the subject, then find his website, and become aware of the truth.
