Geological and archaeological evidence for/against the flood/CTE

[MG1962]

Wouldn't that just empty the oceans and then re-fill them. It doesn't explain the extra water required to cover everything and where it went afterward.

There is something like 4 times as much water under the ocean than it. The reason subduction occurs is the ocean floor rock becomes saturated with water. The extra weight then drags the ocean floor down. Find a fault and all that water is being recycled back into the mantle.

So while there are other issues to be dealt with - The volume of water needed is not one of them

Still nothing to refute the problems with CPT?

Still nothing to establish the problems with CPT.

Can you admit that there isn't anything that would change your belief? Evidence apparently doesn't do it.

Evidence would do it, were it convincing. It has before.
But feel free to make whatever personal accusations about me make you feel better about your position.

Other than the things I've posted which establish the problems with CPT, none of which you have refuted. I've asked.

Feel free to post any evidence for a global flood that you feel supports your position. The WAGs you've suggested have all been thoroughly refuted, even if you personally don't admit it.

What's next? Nuclear explosions to explain Sodom and Gomorrah?

 

[RoboTimbo]

Is that what I did?

No, I don't think so. What are the other problems you see with positing a global flood?

 

[dafydd]

No, I don't think so. What are the other problems you see with positing a global flood?

Apart from drowning all land life on Earth? Or do our two Christians believe that Noah's Ark actually existed?

 

[MG1962]

yes


apparently, the link you provided doesn't say anything about the reason for subduction being saturated rock either

You don't seem to grasp the concept of how rock can lose buoyancy, or that the Mariana plate is not continental plate

How did life on Earth survive this global flood?

 

[Krikkiter]

I won't change my belief without compelling evidence. You haven't provided me with any.

It must be embarrassing to have to admit that your beliefs are based on pure faith.

 

[Krikkiter]

The only three I'm aware of are a) CPT, b) the vapor layer, and c) hydroplates.

a) http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CD/CD750.html

b) http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/canopy.html

c) http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH420.html

Not really. Why would it be?

c) http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH420.html

That blows those three theories out of the water.

You are proud of ignoring reality? How did life on Earth survive this flood?

 

[Marduk]

You don't seem to grasp the concept of how rock can lose buoyancy,

didn't I just explain to you the reason why the denser plate subducts ?
would you like me to explain it in simpler terms ?

or that the Mariana plate is not continental plate

I didn't say it was straw man
why don't you go back to the link you provided as evidence which didn't support your contention and show me anywhere it mentions buoyant rock
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariana_Trench

you don't seem to grasp the concept that there was never a global flood, or that the Magi were fictional characters, or that the Church you belong to is sexist, or that the Catholic church didn't claim that parts of the Old testament were allegorical until 2005

Personally I think I'm doing ok
how bout you ?

Not really. Why would it be?

because any time you try to explain something you don't have any evidence
thats why

That's what I'm trying to find out from MG1962. Waiting for his answer.

if you go back and read my post 1407, you'll see him explaining where the global flood water originated, that would lead me to think that as he's making excuses for the elements involved, then he must believe there was a boat floating on it,

Avalon clearly believes it, which is why he's been trying to make excuses for biblical science all through this thread

 

[MG1962]

Please show evidence I have ever claimed the flood as described in the Bible occurred.

My guess is that you will have to wait for a while.

 

[Krikkiter]

Something to do with self respect I think.

 

[dafydd]

What are you claiming? It was only a partial flood? Or It didn't occur?
