The Flood & Worldwide Festivals of the Dead — the connection.

Yeah, right.

“…amateurish proposals”?
These are facts. When history is uncovered, it is fact. It can be ignored, but that doesn’t change its status as a fact.

It really doesn’t matter who discovers facts.

They are still facts.
Made up nonsense are not facts...underlined or not.
Best way to figure out what is fact and what is fake fiction is by determining the credentials of the one making the claim.
Apparently this guy has none. So no need to waste time on his fiction.

Hello Blü 2,

Just what evidence would you expect to find, that we don’t have?

The freshwater Permafrost, and the megafauna encased within it, is one.


What caused the last Ice Age?
The Flood’s waters that submerged the Northern and Southern hemispheres — it would cause an Ice Age. That water in those sub freezing temperatures, would form - you got it - ice.
THe last ice age

We don’t see the erosion effects of “millions of years” on some Mountain ranges, if they were indeed “millions of years” old. (Some, not all. Some are millions of years old… and show it!)
In many ranges, including the Rockies, the Alps, the Himalayas, and others, we observe pristine, well-defined features. The rocks are very old, but the characteristics they exhibit don’t manifest the erosion and weathering damage millions of years would inflict.
The rocks are much older than the mountain ranges. All 3 of the ranges you mention are very young and still forming


This supports the Bible’s description in Psalm 104:8,9…. “….Mountains ascending, valleys descending…”

Such a cataclysmic event would change earth’s topography, raising and lowering earth’s surface. Especially when some of the water was from “Springs of the vast watery deep.” - Genesis 7:11

This would negate the need for the extreme amount of “water to cover Mt. Everest”…. It wasn’t as high in elevation as today. Or, maybe, still submerged…pristine marine fossils are found on its peaks, as on many mountain ranges.

Take care.
The fossils found on Mount Everest are Ordovician in age, which means they are around 450 million years old.

As I suspected. You won’t address the question of your disengenuousness.

How was I ever "disengenous"<sic>? That appears to be just another false claim of yours.
Lol. I’ve tried, for several years, to reason with you on different topics. It has always ended with your attempt to belittle, and throwing ad Homs. Just sad…

And there you go making false claims again. You are overly sensitive and claim that clear observations are "ad homs". I have found that many people do not understand the concept. You have never shown me to use an ad hominem fallacy against you. And you do repeated confirm that you do not even understand the concept of evidence and will not even discuss the topic. That is not an ad hominem fallacy when I point out that fact.
You have no reality to offer. Only inferred concepts.

And another false claim that you cannot support.
There’s no fear on my end, lol.
The realization is that any dialogue with you, would be wasted effort. A fruitless endeavor.

I disagree. If you were not afraid you would have no problem in trying to learn the basics of science. If you really believed that you understood the basics of science you would have no problem defending yourself against the accusation that you do not understand those basics. Running away is highly indicative that you know that you are wrong.
Maybe someday… but I doubt it.
Though situations can change and Jehovah can work in mysterious ways.
I doubt it. I am pretty sure that you will continue to run away and hide from reality. But keep up that hope for yourself.

No, the "finds" of apologists are far too often refuted in short order. Recently there was the claim about a comet or meteorite strike causing Sodom and Gomorrah. They just abused scientific terms that they did not understand and even possibly falsified some of their evidence. One claim stood out that they had found "shocked quartz". That is a crystalline structure of grains of quartz that are associated with such strikes. Experts in the field showed how the quartz was not even mildly surprised. Then there was the piece of lead that was claimed to have Hebrew writing on it when it was only a case of pareidolia. And not a very good one. And of course there are all of the finds of Ron Wyatt. Even AiG claims that he was not reliable.

If you want something to be a "fact" it really should go through proper peer review. Just because someone said something that you like does not make it a fact.

Dates are facts, not fiction.

And when many unrelated, diverse cultures have ancient calendars which share the same date of a festival (“the 17th day of the 2nd month”), you can be sure there’s a common source behind it!

If you want to ignore it, that’s your prerogative.

If I remember correctly the same date is not observed. You had festivals around a certain date. And that can be easily explained without a worldwide flood.
