Flood Evidences — revised

Subduction Zone

LOLOL….. Yep. Same with the Nile Delta.

This is idiocy to be debating about myths.

As I like to say, there is no debate. There is only correction. The problem is that some want to teach these myths as if they were real in U.S. schools. Otherwise I could not care less.

These mythical flood stories originate out of real flooding of the Euphrates River Basin. Periodically the mountain snowmelt in the Spring combined with heavy Spring rains caused the River to jump its river bed.
It's like the stories about Paul Bunyan, with the "believers" pointing to evidences of logging and the existence of lumberjacks, and declaring it all to be evidence supporting the existence of a giant who worked the forests with his giant blue ox.

Now you are striking a little too close to home:

Evidences for Paul Bunyan:

Notice the lack of trees.

The above trees are trying to make a comeback but they never seem to last through the autumn.
 

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
No, because "god magic". LOL
Yeah you're probably right. No argument can beat God Magic.

Well at least so for all the unrealistic arguments completely made in biblical tale fantasy land.



Like standing in the middle of a fiery furnace.

Long hair giving you superhuman strength*.

Building a tower to heaven then suddenly losing your ability to speak your former language yet you can understand the new language you just learned a second ago.

Holding your arms up in the air and the sun stand still.

Talking animals. Heh.

Magical trees with magical fruit.

Blowing some horns and the walls fall down.

Getting eaten by a fish for 3 days and not worrying about drowning.

Getting thrown in a pit with hungry starving lions and not getting eaten.

Feeding the masses with a few Loaves and Fishes.

Turning water into wine**.

*Why why isn't Samson a superhero? His biggest Nemesis could be somebody called, "The Barber".

**Okay, I wish that one was true. I wouldn't have to go all the way to the wine store all the time to pick up my favorite concord grape wine.

I grew up looking at core samples so I have a pretty good idea about strata.

There is a flood sediment in the Euphrates river basin which is right where you'd expect it to be and the reason its called the Fertile Crescent.

And of course, there is no worldwide layer to mark a flood.

How does it make sense that antarctic ice
survived this "flood"?

it was caused by the flood not survived the flood
In the cooling world with warm oceans that would be a recipe for lots of snow
leading to large glaciers snow and ice buildups
until the arctic froze and stopped it

So you are saying that the Flood occurred before man even existed.

How does that work?

Well, whirrr, that is pretty silly.

No. He is silly right now.

Actually, it explains the high amount of Mammoths near the arctic ocean even in the ice age. The Ice age would finally end when the warm oceans finally froze over then the vegetation near would die and the mammoth would die in wind blown silt as if in a dust down scenario. And that it the type material they are buried in. Frozen wind blown silt.

The problem is that mammoth finds do not match those of flood believers. They match those of what one would expect if the mammoths died as the ice advanced.
