[FONT="]What evidence are you asking for? [/FONT]
[FONT="]Wouldnt we expect to find billions of fossilized plants and animals buried and in sand, mud, and lime that were deposited rapidly by water in rock layers all over the earth.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
Lets keep in mind that unless something happens to disprove our current information (which happens a lot with science) I am willing to give science a dating accuracy of 14,000 years.
Anything more than that is just blah, blah, and blah so we can ignore those dates as being inaccurate.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Is that fair enough?[/FONT]
[FONT="]That should be fair as none of us are looking for anything less than the truth and we can prove that science cannot be accurate past 14,000 years. [/FONT]
[FONT="]And the fact that something drastic happened along the way is evident by the unknown history of the pyramids. [/FONT]
[FONT="]We also have maps that show a partial charting of Antarctica, made during a period when the coast was free of ice. This coastal structure, now covered again by ice, was subsequently verified by satellite radar scanning. Ice core samples of the coastline have fixed the last ice-free period to between 11,000 B.C. and 4,000 B.C..[/FONT]
[FONT="]So we have maps that date back into an area that were created before we could create those maps in that area. So
something happened to that technology.[/FONT]
[FONT="]If a pole shift happened at the same time as the flood then land could have been moved. [/FONT]
[FONT="]We have found a lot of cities underwater and keep in mind that we havent done much under water research when compared to the size, depth and scope of the ocean. [/FONT]
[FONT="]A couple underwater cities are:[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Samabaj[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Cleopatras Palace[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Pavlopetri[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Atlit-Yam[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Port Royal[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Seahenge[/FONT]
- [FONT="]The Shore Temple[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Herakleion and Canopus[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Baiae[/FONT]
- [FONT="]The Pharos[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Dian Kingdom[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Eidum[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Olous[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Llys Helig[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Mulifanua Bay[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Pheia[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Atil[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Rungholt[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Phanagoria[/FONT]
- [FONT="]Saeftinghe[/FONT]
[FONT="]I guess what I am trying to say is we havent found everything that has been lost yet and we are finding new information daily. It is a bit early to start making your mind up about what is and isnt true. [/FONT]
[FONT="]The Chilean highway project unearthed an amazing graveyard of fossilized whale skeletons. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Ongoing excavations in the Gobi Desert has also tells a strange story. So far twenty-five dinosaurs have been discovered along with 200 skulls of mammals. There is no evidence of the several million year evolutionary gap or of the iridium boundary that is thought to delineate when the dinosaurs became extinct. [/FONT]
[FONT="]The Mongolian Academy of Sciences and the American Museum of Natural History have excavated dinosaurs, lizards and small mammals in an unprecedented state of preservation. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Freshly exposed skeletons sometimes look more like the recent remains of a carcass than like an 80-million-year-old fossil. The strange thing is whatever made these dinosaurs become extinct seems to have been erased.[/FONT]
[FONT="]But then Gobi isnt unique. In the United States you can find dinosaur graveyards in New Mexico, in the famous Bone Cabin Quarry of Wyoming, and at other sites. In Alberta, Canada there is a huge graveyard that stretches for hundreds of miles and holds innumerable dinosaurs bones. In Agate Springs, Nebraska a fossil graveyard of around 9,000 animals was found buried. [/FONT]
[FONT="]The remains of hundreds of rhinos, three-toed horses, camels, giant wild boars, birds, plants, trees, sea shells and fish are mixed and intermingled in great confusion. In Tanzania, Belgium and Mongolia similar massive catastrophes captured vast populations and trapped them in a fossil graveyard of sediments and debris.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The Ashley Beds is an enormous phosphate graveyard that contains mixed remains of man with land and sea animals, notably dinosaurs, pleisosaurs, whales, sharks, rhinos, horses, mastodons, mammoths, porpoises, elephants, deer, pigs, dogs, and sheep. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Remains of the hog, the horse and other animals of recent date, together with human bones mingled with the bones of the mastodon and extinct gigantic lizards have been found. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Another massive repository of fossils is found in South Africa. We can only speculate how many creatures are contained in this graveyard. One mind-boggling analysis estimates The Karoo formation in South Africa alone contains fossil remains of about 800 billion animals. [/FONT]
[FONT="]If there was a pole shift and land was moved there could be much more going on that has yet to be discovered. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Keep in mind that very few fossils are forming today. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]For instance what happens to a fish when it dies? It either floats to the surface where it decays and or is eaten by birds or sinks to the bottom where it decays and is eaten by other fish. Yet we find many fish fossils that are preserved with their scales and organs. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Yet we find fossils of sea creatures in rock layers that cover all the continents.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]For example, most of the rock layers in the walls of the Grand Canyon (more than a mile above sea level) contain marine fossils. Fossilized shellfish are even found in the Himalayas. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]We find extensive fossil graveyards and exquisitely preserved fossils. For example, billions of nautiloid fossils are found in a layer within the Redwall Limestone of Grand Canyon. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]The rocks also testify to something happening. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]On every continent are found layers of sedimentary rocks over vast areas.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Many of these sediment layers can be traced all the way across continents. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]When geologists look closely at these rocks, they are able to find physical features that indicate they were moved quickly. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]For more than 50 years geologists have recognized that these strata belong to six megasequences (very thick, distinctive sequences of sedimentary rock layers) that can be traced right across North America.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]For example, the Tapeats Sandstone and Redwall Limestone of Grand Canyon can be found across the entire United States, up into Canada, and even across the Atlantic Ocean to England. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]The same chalk beds found in England can be traced to Northern Ireland, France, Western Australia, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, southern Scandinavia, Europe, Turkey, Israel, Egypt, the Middle East, and even Kazakhstan.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Extensive chalk beds are also found in North America, through Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Nebraska and in Kansas.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]And what about the coal beds?[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]In the northern hemisphere, the Upper Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian) coal beds of the eastern and Midwest USA are the same coal beds, with the same plant fossils, as those in Britain and Europe.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Inclined (sloping) layers within the Coconino Sandstone of Grand Canyon are testimony to 10,000 cubic miles of sand being moved in days.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]We find evidence of rapid erosion, or even of no erosion, between rock layers.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Flat, knife-edge boundaries between rock layers indicate continuous deposition of one layer after another, with no time for erosion. For example, there is no evidence of any missing millions of years (of erosion) in the flat boundary between two well-known layers of Grand Canyonthe Coconino Sandstone and the Hermit Formation. Another impressive example of flat boundaries at Grand Canyon is the Redwall Limestone and the strata beneath it.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Rocks do not normally bend; they break because they are hard and brittle. But in many places we find whole sequences of strata that were bent without fracturing, indicating that all the rock layers were rapidly deposited and folded while still wet and pliable before final hardening. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]For example, the Tapeats Sandstone in Grand Canyon is folded at a right angle (90°) without evidence of breaking. [/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
[FONT="]So
when you say there is no proof of a worldwide flood I am a bit confused by what you mean. [/FONT]
