Creation scientists say it was Noah's flood that broke apart the continents. AIG

The intent is to expand viewers which increases more points of view.

If I thought every poster looks at every thread then I wouldn't have to do it this way; which is NOT spamming.

:)-

now do you have something to add to the topic or are you complaining just to spam a complaint-?

I am not so sure of that. I am not reporting it, but you might consider that in the future.

At any rate as I pointed out in the other thread you got some key points wrong, and even if you were correct this does not support the floor myth in any way at all.

[1] "got some key points wrong"-- then please explain?
[2] "even if you were correct" --- which the links prove I am; or they are
[3] "this does not support the floor myth in any way at all"
melting massive ice sheets creates flooding

Subduction Zone, don't look at this from the biblical point of view, just look at this evidence from a scientific point of view; then post your response

First off your claim that the Antarctic icecap has been here since the Cambrian was wrong.

Second, ice ages are nowhere near the same as a flood.

And no, your links did not support you. Why repeat an obvious error?

The Lost One
The hilarious part is that they even created their very own 'peer Review-Journal' so they can make a claim their stuff went through the peer-review process and published in a 'scientific' journal .
Michael Behe isn’t part of AiG...well as far as I know...reviewed the 2nd edition Of Pandas And People (1993), an Intelligent Design book, but he contributed a chapter.

The problem here, is Behe can’t review the critically if he is one of the authors and editors. It is bias to review a book that he took part in, even if it was only a 2nd edition.

Such is the dishonesty of any creationist.

His contribution to this book as a reviewer was brought up in Kitzmiller v Dover Area School District court case (2005).

His own book Darwin’s Black Box was also brought up in court, where he listed a fellow biologist as one of his “reviewer”, who turned out never read his manuscript, let alone critically review it.

Just as AiG’s people lack integrity, so do all members of the Discovery Institute.

Did the Continents Split Apart in the Days of Peleg?

Unlike their secular counterparts, they call it Continental Sprint, instead of continental drift or simply catastrophic drift.

Can you imagine this stuff ever being taught in schools???

This is what the Dominionists teach.

If the continents did indeed split apart in the days of Peleg, moving thousands of miles into their current positions in a catastrophic manner, the resulting devastation would have utterly destroyed the face of the earth and everything living on it. The ocean waters would have flooded over the continents in huge tsunamis, creating a second worldwide flood event!

The "Biblical Flood" is just a mythical misconception and misinterpretation.

In several ancient Myths of the Milky Way this is mentioned as "The Celestial River or Flood". This mytho-cosmological river/flood can be observed running in the night Sky all around over the Earth.

If having no clues af this celestial mythical and religious river or flood, litteral scholars and interpretors have no other options than to believe this river/flood once to have covered the Earth.

That is: Instead of taking this Milky Way myth seriously to (STILL) run OVER the Earth, creationists and other ignorants take it once to have ran ON the Earth.

What Happened in the Days of Peleg?
The Context of Genesis 10
A careful search of the context of Genesis 10:25 clearly reveals that the division of the earth refers to the dividing up of the post-Flood people on the basis of languages and families, and moving them into different geographical locations. In fact, all of Genesis 10 is dedicated to dividing up Noah’s family into its three major divisions based on Noah’s three sons and their families, and then to further list the sub-family groups.

As the ice sheet melted the runoff looked like a flood, so they called it a “GREAT FLOOD”

There is ample proof of a great flood and now it is time to flip the argument. It is time for the doubters to prove there wasn’t a flood.
I’d question whether melting ice sheets would look like a flood. Also, who exactly called this a “great flood”?

Anyway, how is something that could be interpreted to look like a global flood be proof of an actual global flood? Remember, nobody is deny large scale flooding in various parts of the world throughout geological history. We’re talking about the Biblical flood, a claim that the entire surface of the planet was covered with water beyond the height of the highest mountains. Not "A great flood", "The Great Flood".

Ok, you agree there was an "ice age" you just don't believe the melting ice sheets could cause a flooding. Foe the life of me I cannot believe you call yourself a geologists. But then again Trump believes he is the smartest person on this planet.

Just for the record, did you get your geology degree from the Trump University?

Melting ice sheets will only cause local flooding in some areas. That was not the mythical flood of the Bible. Your inability to understand science of logic is no excuse to attempt to insult someone else.

You must look at this claim from the eye witness accounts of the people involved. Some of these people still believed the earth was flat. They didn’t even know there was a Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. From their point of view, they were witnessing a “Great Flood”

Glaciers dig deep into the terrain, forming rugged, dramatic landscapes. Valleys are scooped out as a glacier scrapes through them.

Most glaciers move very slowly—only a few centimeters a day. Some, though, can move 50 meters (160 feet) a day

Sometimes, alpine glaciers create or deepen valleys by pushing dirt, soil, and other materials out of their way.

Okay, that is correct. But even for them the flood did not cover the Earth nor was the life on Earth ever threatened. There was no worldwide flood as in the Bible. There was no Ark. At best a man on a barge with a few animals was the beginning of this myth.

The flood lasted for one hundred and fifty days (Genesis 7:24 KJV). On the seventeenth day of the seventh month of the six-hundredth year of Noah’s existence, the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat. The waters continually subsided until the tenth month (Genesis 8:4-5 KJV).

So then you agree that that is a myth. Whew! Finally getting somewhere.

James, the Hebrews learned the story in Babylon and embellished it. There was NO global flood.
