Did God Create This ???

People claim that the cracking of the tectonic plates was a result of the great flood. However, red sand is a dead give away that Australia was never touched by the flood and most other parts of the world as well.

Not having studied geology, I do not understand why red sand proves this.

As for flood water draining away in the cracks, wouldn't the contact of the water with the molten lava beneath the earth have caused so much steam that Earth would have been turned into a giant steam cooker?

Incorrect, Australian rivers are full of sandstone over 12 millino years old. Not all weathering processes yield the same results.
Scripture is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo one dimensional its painful. FFH maybe i should send you my lecture notes from Earth Science so you stop making silly claims?

Okay, so what if that sandstone, before it became sandstone, as the sand or sediment was deposited, let's say...by a world wide flood..., then eroded away, in certain places, very quickly, as the flood waters receded.

Fresh sand and sediment because of a world wide flood, which gathered more heavily in certain areas of the earth, the flood waters then recede and quickly form deep rivers, for example, the Grand Canyon.

Red soil is rich in Iron Oxide. This usually denotes a lack of water as Iron oxide reacts well with many organic chemicals found in dead organisms (top soil). Hence why only some plants can be grown in such conditions as plants usually use this organic matter to live.

The cracks in the crust do not go down that far. There would be a bit of steaming here and there where hotspots are, but i doubt the scale you speak of is a likely scenario.

I asked if you understand parallax, a basic concept of geometry, and linked to a web site explaining how it is used to measure the distance to other stars. Since this method tells us that the nearest starts are 270,000 times as far away from us as the Sun is, your claim that they are planets reflecting the Sun's light is more than a little specious. Maybe you could explain how basic geometry is failing us.

Angels are people, not birds, the wings are just symbols of who they are.

Angels are human spirits that have lived and died on this earth who assist men on earth.

One example is Angel Moroni.

O.k. now we need to call the guys in the white coats.

Where in all of scripture, and no not the BoM, does it state that angels are people much less dead people? And for the record I didn't state that the so called angels were birds. LOL. I was quoting scripture. One of which states.......

Isa 6:2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.

Do you dispute scripture and say that what it says does not matter but the wings are nothing more than symbols?

What about this one...........

Eze 41:18 And it was made with cherubims and palm trees, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub; and every cherub had two faces;

So our so called spirits or souls as you say when we die they go and become these two faced cherubs? Why two faced? I have even read in places that some may even have 4 faces.

If anything a worldwide flood would have removed any sediement that had built up. IF there was a flood, it is my firm belief that salanisation would be occuring significantly faster than it is. That is because all organic matter including trees would have died because of excess H2O and we'd be left with nothing but wet desert.

Your theory is possible, but not on a worldwide extent. I would have to say that given this scenario, there would be 100 grand canyons. Also, if heavy sediment deposits were created as you say, the Grand Canyon is not an example. It would be used as an example for the lack of transportation of sediment.

Since no one has traveled to a star yet, the theories of their distances are just that theories, not fact or proof of their distance.

Again, we go back to the tape measure illustration. If I can't clearly see or be at the beginning of the place or object I'm measuring, how can I accurately measure it.

Again, theories, not fact or proof of their distance.

Stars are distant dead planets reflecting the sun's light, as the moon and other more distant planets do at night, appearing as, what we call stars, in the distance to the naked eye.

Oh, and FFH please stop misusing the term "theory" when used in a scientific context. The rest of us know better. You only make yourself look foolish. Well, more foolish.

Fair enough, but...

I've worked with, dated, been friends/associated with girls with faces nearly as beautiful and/or as beautiful as the opening post photo, so they definitely do exist, so that said, did God create this or was it just a set of random events ???

Read Dawkins "The Ancestor's Tale" for a good explanation about how evolution works, and how homo sapiens evolved. Your post is nonsensical in that "beauty" is in the eye of the beholder, i.e. does not figure into any scientific discussion of the question of how things came to be.
