@@leehogg4624 You said, "The problem begins when we approach with everything to fit a certain interpretation." There are , as I see it, three sides. 1. The Young Earth Creationists. 2. The Old Earth Religious. 3. The Old Earth non-Religious. Each "side" believes it is the honest, truthful and correct side. Each side can't understand how the other sides can possibly believe what they believe, when the Bible or the Science or both, make their position so clear. You originally said, "The best way is to approach with skepticism." But then later you responded with, "I didn't know being honest, truthful and correct had a side ." It appears that you are not looking at your own "side" with skepticism since you believe it to be "honest, truthful and CORRECT..." So I guess you think that others should look at their own side with skepticism, since they are not correct. Let me ask you a simple question: How do you know that the world and everything in it, wasn't created this morning, 5 minutes before you "woke up"? You, your house, your car, your friends, the Bible, all created this morning. Your "memories" were created this morning too, which make you believe you have lived for years and make you believe you "know" stuff. How do you know God didn't create you and the world this morning? God can do anything. In case you are wondering, I am on the side of the Old Earth Religious. I believe there is a very good chance there is a God and there is a very good chance that the Earth took millions of years to get to where it is today. And, I look at all three "sides" with skepticism.
@@gregoswald7723 that kind of question ....how do I know the world wasn't just created is a diversionary tactic. We can only know so much.

John 10:6 Jesus Identified as an intimate object. Jesus ahead of his time. Today males identify as female. Jesus identified as a door. Even asked people to knock.
A likely cause is in Geneis 6:2 -- "that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose." It's interesting that there's a defined distinction between "the sons of God" and "the daughters of men". If the "sons" were men/human of Adamic descent, then why were they not plainly indicated as such? The term "sons of God" in Hebrew can contextually mean "angels"; the book of Job, written earlier than Genesis, also used the same phrase to mean the same thing (ref Job 1:6; 2:1). Like Adam, they were also directly created by God, but they're immaterial (without physical bodies) and were not created from the dust of the earth. God created creatures "according to their kind" (1:21, 24-25). Hence, angels and mankind were of different created kinds. And when God specifically commanded man (male and female) to "be fruitful and multiply (1:28)", it meant that the earth be populated by HUMANKIND through the physical union of man and woman. God's judgment (Gen 6:1-7) was against the wickedness -- NATURAL EVIL -- that He saw in what has multiplied across the earth -- "There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown. (Genesis 6:4)". The "giants" were brought about by the union between "the sons of God" (angels) and "the daughters of men" (humans). This is an ABOMINATION to God because they are not part of His original created order. When God said, "I will destroy man..." (Gen 6:7), "destroy" meant "to erase", "blot out", "wipe away". Given the (lack of) human fossilization, I believe that God was literally dead serious in His judgment such that He "erased" / "blotted out" / "wiped away" any trace of the abominable HYBRID (angelic-human) population from the earth...except Noah and his family of seven people. God was specific about "the wickedness of man", and did not cite the same abomination to have occurred among all the other creatures, so they were not "erased". --- "For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly..." - II Peter 2:4-5 c

Except not. Evolution is not spontaneously morphing into an entirely different species. The closest to such a phenomenon would be metamorphosis. While metamorphosis does occur in nature, it is not synonymous with speciation. Speciation occurs when organisms of the same species are separated and endure separate natural pressures over many generations which result in genetic and physiological changes significant enough that the descendants of those organisms can no longer interbreed. The offspring of those organisms have become separate species in other words. Regarding time scale, it depends on what particular organisms we are speaking of. Simple single celled organisms can evolve very quickly as they have generation after generation within a single day. When doctors tell us to complete a regiment of antibiotics, they are telling us that because failure to do so may result in the strongest most resistant organisms surviving and passing on their genes in the form of much stronger more resistant infection. Again, evolve does not mean an organism spontaneously changes into another organism. Evolution is population mechanics/genetics over time. Humans did not come from any modern monkey or ape. Our ancestors were humans until we go far back enough we don’t recognize them as humans. There are literally libraries of data regarding natural selection. We in fact do have bones and fossils from prehistory to corroborate this. Hypothetically, even if we didn’t, there is still ample evidence of biological evolution in genetic code (and no, that does not refer to code as a computer programmer would understand it). You’re attempting to create a false dichotomy; either you believe deities exist, or you believe natural phenomena occur. I remember this sort of fundamentalist evangelical indoctrination from the 1980s and 1990s. One may believe in deities while also understanding the scientific process, and how we came to know it. Conversely, one may not believe in deities, but believe in fantastical or dubious claims such as those intrinsic within astrology or solipsism. Evolutionary biology is not a religion. This was confirmed even in the legal system in the 2005 Kitsmiller vs. Dover decision. Unfortunately, fraudulent organizations such as Answers in Genesis and Living Waters ministries have purposefully confused the definition of evolution as it pertains to biology.

Impressive that you choose a biblical character from 2000 years ago in an attempt to argue against modern science. No doubt that you have a crayon illustration as evidence
So riddle me this: Gen 7:11 the flood commences on the 17th day of the 2nd month of Noah's 600th year. 7:12 it rains for 40 days and nights 7:24 the waters prevail on the earth for 150 days 8:3 the waters recede over 150 days So far, depending on how you count we are either 300 (the 7:12 40 days are included in the 7:24 150 days), or 340 days into the flood. (that is 10 - 11 months) 8:4 on the 17th day of the 7th month the ark touches down on Mt. Ararat. 8:5 the waters continue to recede until the tenth month so presumably these happen during the 8:3 150 days? 8:6-8 after 40 days.... so is that 340/380 days now? Noah sends out a raven, then a dove 8:10-11 Noah waits 7 days and sends out the dove again, it returns with an olive leaf 8:12 Noah waits another 7 days and sends out the dove again; it does not return This puts us on a grand total of 40+150+150+40+7+7 = 394 days So Gen 7:11 the flood commences on the 17th day of the 2nd month of Noah's 600th year Gen 8:13 the earth is dry-ish by the 1st of the 1st of the 601st year Gen 8:14 the earth is completely dry by the 27th of the 2nd month. The full duration of the flood is then 10 days in excess of a year (being 17-2-600 end 27-2-600) That would be noticeably less than our 394 days. We are out by more than half a month that is unaccounted for, almost three weeks. Now that sort of error is fine if you are talking about a hundred year long matter, but this is barely more than a year. a three week mistake is pretty major in this case. Now maybe I made a counting mistake somewhere... if we assume that the first 40 days are included in the first 150 days, we end up on ten days short of a year, so that does not work. If anything one could assume we somehow lost a week of waiting between Noah sending out the first dove after sending out the raven, but that just makes the mistake even greater. The reality of course is that the flood narrative is actually two separate versions of the same story out of two separate traditions, interwoven with each other by a later writer. you have what is known as the Yahwist narrative (Gen 6:1-8, 7:1-5, 7:7, 7:12, 7:17-18, 7:23, 8:6-12, 8:13b, 8:20-22, and 9:18-27) and all the rest make up the Priestly narrative (Gen6:9-22, 7:6, 7:8-11, 7:13-16, 7:19-22, 7:24-8:5, 8:13a, 8:14-19, 9:1-17, 9:28-29). There are archaeological finds of both of these narratives in isolate (that is a Yahwist text with just the Yahwist bits, and a Priestly text with just the Priestly bits) We know that this is two versions of the same story interwoven with one another. This is why one verse explains that Noah should take 7 pairs of all clean animals, and one pair of all unclean animals (7:2), yet elsewhere God sends single pairs of all animals, clean and unclean alike to Noah. (7:8) why sometimes the flood is caused solely by the rain but in other bits we also see mention of "the springs of the great deep" (7:11) implying waters both falling in from the heaven AND rising up from underground. This time inconsistency disappears (sort of) when you do not try to reconcile the two separate narratives. All this to say that to literally interpret the flood narrative in Genesis is a fool's game. It gets even worse because what do we find on the 5th tablet of the epic of Gilgamesh. Note that while the Jawhist wrote around the 10th-9th century BCE, and the Priestly author around the 6th century BCE, the Epic of Gilgamesh was written sometime between the 21st and 13th century BCE (so significantly earlier basically). We find a flood narrative from which the Genesis flood account clearly took inspiration. So Gen 6- 9 represents not a historical record of real events, but the interwoven product of two different Hebrew versions of the same Sumerian myth. For an organisation that purports to deeply study Genesis, you guys are really shameless in withholding well established knowledge about your primary source.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 and I did not even address the rock layers part of the argument. Hell my next angle of attack consists of biblical year counting and concluding that the Egyptians were already in Egypt building pyramids during the flood, and continued to do so during and after with no indication of any disturbance. Keep in mind that the Egyptians are supposedly descended from Noah's son Ham. Turns out that people have always been half decent at counting years, so the ages of many old kingdom pyramids are fairly easy to corroborate. So our biblical year counting exercise cannot accurately determine these historical facts. Which again results in the simple conclusion: interpreting genesis literally is a fool's game.
Two questions for you: 1. Which Version of the Bible are you using? 2. The Sumerian/Babylonian 'history' is based off of what, exactly? A topic for discussion: Why are the Sumerian/Babylonian people gone, and the Jews are not? They are Historically about as old as each other; with even the most God hating, evolutionist loving historians conceding the Lineage of Abraham (his ancestry and descendants) to be Historically accurate. Humans are incredibly good at Genocide, after all, and plenty of groups have disappeared over the years. 2000 years of Catholic persecution of Jews and dissident Bible believing Christians and they are still here. Against all odds.
Hebrew year is 355 days and they didn't have our Gregorian calendar months. "The Jewish calendar is lunisolar-i.e., regulated by the positions of both the moon and the sun. It consists usually of 12 alternating lunar months of 29 and 30 days each (except for Ḥeshvan and Kislev, which sometimes have either 29 or 30 days), and totals 353, 354, or 355 days per year."

Interesting hypothesis. Now it’s time to test it. 1) If a massive flood killed all living creatures including humans why don’t we find lots of human fossil among the other fossils? 2) if the earth is 6000 years old why can we then find a 9500 year old tree (Old Tjikko in Norway) 3) the current isotope composition on the earth and radioactive decay rates of elements dates the earth much older. Even IF that rate has mysteriously been speeded up the energy released would literally have vaporized the earth if it was all to happen in 6000 years.
As for points 2&3, Adam and Eve weren’t created as babies so why do you think the Earth and everything on it would be created as newborn? Haven’t checked the veracity of the first one yet.
@@neptica9926 there’s another problem. If the flood resets the human population to around a handful of persons, how did it reach the 150-300 million only 2000 years later? That’s a factor of ~30 million in 2000 years. Note that in the following 2000 years until today the population only increased by a factor of ~50 despite the highest growth rates ever observed in human history.
Excellent points all. no doubt. I think it is simply important to point out all the issues with evolution, whether geological, cosmological or biological. I don't necessarily think the flood in the absolute biblical sense is the answer either. Problems in current theories are abound. We have already seen since JWT hit space that current cosmological models are full of issues. Dogma in current accepted science is also a thing.

Free will. People can do what they choose to do. If God stepped in, He would be removing our free will. People can do good and bad things. There's no reason to blame God, it's that individual's responsibility.
The other thing to me is that all the layers of the earth have to come from somewhere. They act like dirt just falls from the sky and covers everything
Please do some reading. No reputable scientist has ever said that dirt falls from the sky. It sounds like something you've heard from a creationist geologist. Get both sides and decide for yourself.

And why do you think they don't show ALL of the fossils in the geological column? Could be possibly be that there's no way you could feasibly fit that many illustrations on a single page? Are you not aware of how crazy many different fossil species we have found? You say it's to "tell the story", which is sort of correct, but it's rather that they tend to show you the index fossils, or which major groups of life appear at those different layers, so they show you only examples of species from those groups.

If the fossils were all formed at once they would naturally all be in one single layer across the world which is obviously not the case. Simple logic supports evolution & geology over creationism.
I dont get that either. That was the first thing that came to my mind, when I heard this layer argument. Not just in one place, it should be everywhere
Agreed. As a Christian and former Creationist, the arguments aren't strong enough. I'm not on board with evolution totally because the gap between humans but I believe the world is much older until proven otherwise. But I don't get why so many Christians focus on the wrong thing. It's about Jesus Christ and nothing else. Who cares if the world is 6k years old or 4.6 billion years old. Also, the bible has many parables or things that weren't to be taken literal unless Jesus specifically says it. This gets so many Christians sidetracked from what we need to focus on. That's Jesus Christ.

One question....with all the fossilized remains found throughout the world based on the Flood as described in Genesis, why are there no human fossils in you presentation. If the flood happened in such a rapid time frame, there would be millions of human fossil remains as well in these rock layers. Please help us understand!
The Flood was brought down upon the Earth because of the behavior of humans as Punishment. The concept of Human time has no correlation to the concept of God's Time. Reasonable thinking would therefore deduce that there should be all types of creatures fossilized in the Rock layers including mammals and humans. The Great Flood theory "Has To" to coincide with the existence of man and mammals or the story of Noah and the Ark is just that a story! Realistically Noone knows the truth. How about we all look within, find what gives each of us " Individual Peace" and then move on. Respect the choice others have made if different from yours and let us all coexist in the here and now.

What made you think that dinosaurs were not included in the ark? Are you looking for the biggest dinosaurs inside the ark? Noah doesn't need to bring the biggest one. Noah was told to bring animals of their kind. So seven pairs of dog will suffice. Seven pairs of cats will suffice. Did Noah collect all of them from all over the world? No. The bible said that the animals went to Noah by themselves. Why are there soft tissues of t-rex dinosaurs found in their bones if they are 300 million years old already? Did the soft tissues miraculously survive for 300 million years or are those dinosaur bones not really that very old as scientists want to claim? You know which is the more plausible answer. There are even stegosaurus carved in the Angkor Wat temple. That is proof that the humans who built the Angkor Wat have seen the stegosaurus which is supposed to have lived 160 million years ago.

Here is the most often used equation for getting the age of an igneous rock from the results of an AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry) data set. D = D0 + N(t) (eλt − 1) t is age of the sample, D is number of atoms of the daughter isotope in the sample, D0 is number of atoms of the daughter isotope in the original composition, N is number of atoms of the parent isotope in the sample at time t (the present), given by N(t) = Noe-λt, λ is the decay constant of the parent isotope, equal to the inverse of the radioactive half-life of the parent isotope times the natural logarithm of 2. Tell me how can anyone know D0 "The number of the daughter isotopes in the original composition", when the origin of the original composition supposedly took place millions or even billions of years ago before anybody was around to take the measurement? I must also point out that the D0 in this equation is not a product of the equation but a requirement of the equation. Without it, it won’t work. When testing modern rocks; rocks whose formation was observed, the daughter isotope percentages at formation vary wildly and are in fact never zero. This happens for two reasons 1. Because the melt itself (lava) can contain varying amounts of the parent and daughter isotopes. 2. Because the rate at which the rock cools can have a large effect on how much of the daughter isotope gets trapped in the matrix before it solidifies. If levels at rock formation in modern observed samples vary then one must accept that rocks from the past acted in like manner. Making the assumption that there are no daughter isotopes at formation for older samples when this is clearly not supported by modern samples is disingenuous at best and an outright lie at worst. If the starting ratios are not known then there is no math that can find the date. The dates used and accepted by supporters of evolution are in fact nothing but guesses based off of unproven assumptions. Show me an equation that can give an accurate date from the results of an AMS without relying on the unverifiable daughter isotopes being zero at solidification. If you cannot then your belief in the dates it provides is called faith. Isochron methods use the same data from the equation above to make their plots and as such suffer from the same dilemma... *The goal of the isochronic method is to identify and eliminate samples with possible contamination in situ or during handling and does nothing to eliminate the mathematical and logic errors inherent in math in first place.* All that has been achieved by Isochron methods is a plot made of even more errors. There is no mathematical way one can determine the level of a coefficient without knowing the starting values of the variables used. The only reliable constants in the equations used are the decay rate of the isotopes (see Appendices A. at the bottom of this paper) and the rate of the passage of time. Without the starting ratios of parent and daughter isotopes math cannot determine an accurate date. You can find the oldest and youngest possible date that a sample could be by plugging in starting ratios at both of the extremes. But the dates obtained would give such a wide spread as to be useless. In fact you can obtain just about any date by simply plugging in whatever starting ratios will give you the date you want. Assuming that the ratios are zero for older unknown samples when every modern sample shows this to be wrong is..... Self induced ignorance. The level of self dilution displayed by those promoting the accuracy of radio dating is absurd. Appendices A... Apparently researchers at Stanford and Cornell have shown that some radio isotope decay rates can be affected by magnetic fields and ray interaction... The results of this research add even more question to the accuracy of the standard radio dating equations. May God open your mind as well as you heart.
@@area-xp3sw I was just searching for the truth and found something about AMS dating that just does not fit.... Looked into it in more depth and found why... I have talked to quite a few so called "experts" in the field and not a one could explain this discrepancy. The truth is out there you just need to look.
Do you know all dinosaur fossils have carbon-14 in them? infact the amount is delta 2-3 which is less than 35000 years old. they cannot be older than 50000 years because C14 has half life 5730 years. there would be zero C14 left even after 100000 years. The reason they didn't carbon date dinosaur bones is they thought that they would find EXACTLY NO C14 (because of the ASSUMPTION that they would be old) . This is very rare that someone gets the permission to carbon date them.This also explains why we find dinosaur tissue and even blood cells , osteocytes etc . There is LOADS OF C14 in dinosaurs. Also diamonds and coal have C14(less studies on those so far). WHICH IS WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT IF THE EARTH IS YOUNG, AND COAL WAS CREATED FROM DEAD PLANTS AND ANIMALS WHICH WERE RAPIDLY BURIED.(yes, you can very quickly create coal under high pressure). Also if the earth were young this automatically solves the 35000 years -6000 years discrepancy(since c14 couldnt fully form in the atmosphere to as much as it is now yet when the dinosaurs died)
A good geochronometer must either have little to no initial incorporation of the daughter isotope or must have a fixed ratio from which the radiogenic and nonradiogenic proportions can be determined. For example, common-Pb (or the natural occurrence of non-radiogenic lead) includes radiogenic isotopes (206, 207, 208) as well as non-radiogenic isotopes (204). If the ratio of these is constant or measurable, then we can separate the radiogenic from the non-radiogenic to extract meaningful age information.
@@jvowen6555 "If the ratio of these is constant or measurable" And how can you be sure of this constant? Constant over what time frame, a few observed hours or days? Certainly not over millions of years. Clearly this is an assumption... One that cannot be confirmed... Even with this method the starting ratios must still be assumed.. If there was any parent isotope in the mix at all it would invalidate the results...
In actual fact, non religious people don't hate people who, for whatever reason, choose to ignore science. They simply don't take assertions like this seriously.
That's quite a universal statement there. Maybe a more accurate or kind of believable statement would be "In my view, most non religious people don't hate people who..." It's a fact that many non religious people hate religious people who 1) are scientifically ignorant or 2) disagree with them about some disputable area of "science".
I don't hate religious people, rather I would generally agree with the core principles of Christianity such as every life matters and be kind to your neighbors. However I do hate them when they use their imaginary boyfriend up in heaven and his dusty old book to justify pedophilia, taking away rights from minorities and banning teaching's in schools

@hellooutsiders6865 Death is a consequence of aging. Fossils are gonna form if the conditions are right during a flash flood for example. If an animal died and became fossilized, it died because it drowned, not because sin exists.
@@globalcoupledances i don't care about money or status, i care about the truth. I bet your the same fool who thinks 75% of water wouldn't be able to engulf the entire 25% of land lol. In fact there's is so much water on earth that there are vast stores of groundwater in the cracks and crevices of earth's crust.
I find it astonishing that Mr. Snelling actually claims to have a PhD in geology. If he had really studied real-world geology, he would have readily seen that all of his firmly held contentions have long since been clearly disproven. The idea of the Noachian flood can be easily shattered in seconds by observing certain geologic features in the Colorado Plateau.

Atheist, we don't hate this. Most of us realize that nobody knows. Christianity fights so hard to prove gods existence. We chose to let the evidence lead to the answers. Maybe god does exist, maybe god used evolution to make everything. Maybe it went down exactly like genesis says, although doubtful. Most of us respect your choice to believe. We only ask that you respect our choice to not have faith. Most of us are still moral people. 9 of the 10 commandments we agree on. Many atheists still believe in honor. So we arive at the same moral place. We just took different paths, and its ok. We are still neighbors.
Rock layers of the same age have the same fossil fauna in them around the world. It's how geologist correlate the age of rock strata. There's also a geological feature called an unconformity. This is where erosion has worn off millions of years of rock strata and you have a much younger strata directly on top of really old formations.
Evolution is a theory, no proof whatsoever. Life has never been initiated in a lab, no record of intermediary life forms, only fully functional developed forms. The classic diagram for evolution starts with a monkey and ends with a human. If the theory is true, each one in that developmental sequence is more capable of survival than the previous, yet we don't see the more "adapted" or "successful" ones alive, do we? Just the monkey and the human. Evolution requires you to have faith because you were not there, have never seen it, and can not reproduce it, so don't knock the other side who just like you believes by faith.
@@Specogecko the problem is they actually find carbon in dinosaur fossils. If dinosaurs are as old as evolutionists claim they are they would have none.
I think people are forgetting that radiometric dating has been used to give a decent estimate of the age of fossils. If you want to debate the accruacy, read independent/peer-reviewed studies

Great talk! I’m still tickled by our brother’s accent; as a fellow Aussie I would normally only hear his accent in an outback cattle station or perhaps a pub, not with the university city folk. It makes me wonder what the story of his life is.
Your book was written by people who didn't know where the sun went at night....and it still guides you (and billions of others) here in the 21st century. WOW!!!
Well of course, no one knew where the sun went (at least with any precise scientific language or photographic proof that we have the luxury of today) when this historically accurate collection of 66 books was written by different authors separated by different cultures and decades that seamlessly points to the same themes, tenants, and historic events - with cross references - before any syndicated channels of communication existed. However they did understated the sun went down and came back up on the other side faithfully everyday and they did understand it was by the power of the creator who made it to do that exact thing.
@@brittanylopez2609 Certain books left out, certain passages added/deleted, many different versions, different translations, individual biases, cultural biases, influence of the church.... I could go on and on. If this is the perfect, inerrant word of god, the first draft should have sufficed.
@@tkcurtis1725 it is interesting though that as a earthmoving machine operator I could plough my wheel loader into a pile of mixed dirt and clay lift it up and slowly pour it out on the ground and it would more or less end up in it's respective layers, so what does this prove? Maybe there is a lot more to be found out how the earth formed and where did all this water come from!
I wonder why these rhetorics always leave out Genesis 6:6, where it says God _regretted_ making humans. Doesn't fit very well with the idea of an infallible God, does it?
It's not God who made the mistake, it was the human. He regretted, but it was not a mistake. God has no power over your thoughts or your choices, man was created with free will.
@@reldintv That's not how "regret" works. If he regrets making humans, it means he's not sure he should have done so, or even thinks he shouldn't have. God can see the future, can he not? Supposedly, he has a detailed "plan". If so, then there is absolutely no free will in this scneario, since otherwise God could be wrong about the future.
@@antiHUMANDesigns nope, the complete thought is this. God regretted when He created man because they chose to live Evil. If humans just live righteously, God would not feel any regret when He created man. If man has no Free Will or Freedom of Choice, then man could not fall from sin. whether man finds joy or not in following Gods command, man has no choice but to obey God if we don't have that freedom of choice, then we are not humans but are robots that can be easily be controlled by its creator.
@@reldintv Indeed, God regretted the result of his creation. One again, this implies tha the wish he hadn't made humans. That's literally what it means. If someone can see the future, then the future is set, which means no one has the freedom to make other choices, because then God couldn't know the future.
Aquinas explains how Scripture speaks of God in human terms by analogy since God doesn't actually change. Unfortunately, a Protestant channel like this is going to ignore Aquinas.
what about coral? it can’t grow as large as it is now in only 6000 years. not to mention that coral only grows in VERY specific conditions being warm and calm water. idk about you but a great flood doesn’t sound warm or calm to me
@@farplenorp yes it is because every single coral species alive today grows WAY TOO SLOW to be as large as the ones in big reefs today. if there was a flood it would have killed all coral worldwide so it would HAVE TO had grown to it’s size today in 6000 years. by every study done, disregarding christian studies because they start the study with bias and they all go against every other study done by real scientists, coral CAN NOT grow that fast. there’s a plethora of other reasons with the coral but i’m not going into that. the christian “science” book called “origins linking science and scripture” by ariel roth published in 1998 claims the fastest growing species of coral can grow from 26.4-43.2 cm per year. which he cites as from a 1968 paper called “comparative growth rates of some reef corals in the caribbean.” the max growth rate in that paper? 16.8cm a year. wildly different than roth’s claim and WAY to slow to support a 6000 year old earth. roth blatantly mis-cited the paper. now why would i trust other christian science books when it is so clear that they misrepresent information?
@@chainingsolid it would have to be calm. and it would have to be the PERFECT salinity. if there was a global flood i doubt it would be calm but even if it were all the water would mix causing the salinity of the ocean to fall because it is being diluted by fresh water. coral is VERY sensitive to a change in salinity and would die.
@@Prince_Az_Myr citation needed. but yeah it probably has considering we’ve been polluting the ocean with sunscreen that destroys coral for decades it makes sense that the GBR has grown at a record pace recently since we’ve been switching to mineral sunscreen which isn’t harmful. but coral doesn’t grow fast it has a maximum rate of 2cm a year for non branching species which has been studied repeatedly. reefs just can’t be as big as they are if they started 6000 years ago.
A 2500+ year old book written by man that claim that you just have to take it on faith that god told them to write it and then point to the very book they wrote saying that it says god said they wrote?? Can't be wrong. No siree
As an old world creationist, these are of the most easily refutable arguments I've ever heard. God creating the world via scientific processes, over millions of years make him look more glorious. Science does not infringe on his power, rather it amplifies it.
One of the things they will never get. They dont even think a bit. Still most of the population believes a creator, most of the scientists still believe in god. Most of scientific theories, discoveries,developments made by theists even most of the time directly from clergy, including the ones they fiercly object. Yet they talk like science is enemy of God and lead by atheists
Dude, Jesus didn't write the bible. Various mostly anonymous authors wrote various books, many of which were compiled into the bible. Trusting the bible doesn't mean "trusting Jesus", it means trusting some sometimes anonymous authors, some of which explicitly state that they're only reporting what they've heard, for example. And neither is it about "trusting secular scientist", since science isn't about scientists, it's about what the evidence and experiments demonstrate. Everything about their method is completely transparent, you can read how they did the tests, and you can repeat the tests yourself. Many of those scientists are Christians, by the way...!
That's because you've been conditioned to shut out information that conflicts with your worldview. You literally just perform the equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and saying nah nah nah I can't hear you. The sad part is, you think that makes you right.

As an atheist myself, I love fossils and rock layers. When you start researching them, and your not trying to prove God. These rock layers and fossils prove evolution. Never trust a single source! Do the research for yourself. Sky - Your friendly atheist.
@@ChickityChicken So I would always suggest you look more into it yourself. Trying to explain a very complicated process in comments is hard to do. So in trying to keep it short, these molecules did a specific process. Breaking down some (food). Though this process the molecules would find a better way (faster and/or better absorption). Those that did this process better survived longer and was able to reproduce and thus the cycle continued. Hope this helps!

Apparently, you ignore all the evidence and focus solely on your image of a man pointing a finger. You have to have super faith to believe in evolution.
One truth of the Bibel you can confirm,in the records,is that a man Named Jesus was crucified at the time it states in the Bibel and all details confirmed independently. What's the ods that it's not the messia. Fourty different historians have wrote about this,wile only 4 wrote about the emporer of the same time.
Atheists love watching folks with a fifth grade knowledge of scientific theories get them so wrong. Don't ever change, you're too entertaining. By the way, if you have disproven evolution, when do you pick up your Nobel prize?
I don't hate this. Believe what you want to believe. I don't think scientists have necessarily an agenda to speak against a Creator. It's just what the evidence shows.
As a science-trusting Christian, I am truly baffled by the nonsense other believers fall for. The narrator doesn't even have the most basic knowledge of evolution.
@@Who_IsLike_God You share a common ancestor with your cousin, wich is your grandfather, you share similar traits with your cousin (for the sake of simplicity lets say its the eye colour) so when talking about wether or not dogs and bears share a common ancestor, it aint a matter of dorectly observing, its a matter of connecting the dots, we know the 2 animals are related because they share a similar trait: wet snout tips, dna testing and the fossil record have made this game of connect the dots even easier, so yea.
I think that according to the time lines and genealogical lines given in the Bible, it's roughly a 2000 year period give or take going from the creation week to Abraham, another 2000 or so going from Abraham to Jesus and then another 2000 or so going from Jesus to now. I personally went through Genesis myself in the genealogical list given from Adam to Noah, the ages they were when they became the fathers of the next in line to the age Noah is written to have been when the flood occurred and got about 1656 years.
We're in either the 5th or 6th day of creation when you look at time in context of a day being a thousand years and a thousand years being a day for God. The 7th day of rest will be the millennial reign of Christ. At least that's my theory. I might be wrong.
@@karltrapson The six day of consumption. Those who are consumers in the flesh in service to Mammon. And those who are gathering double bread, wine, oil, and salt in Spirit and Truth; in preparation for the wonderful day of the Lord, Christ Jesus the Living Word of God.
Nope. The earth is 4.5 billion years old. The universe 13.8 billion. Adam and Eve, perhaps 50,000 to 100,000 years ago. The genealogies have gaps with only the most important people mentioned.
I consider myself an open minded agnostic. A question I have is , is it not possible that great cataclysmic activities have always happened without the explanation of a spirit God causing them ? Seems plausible to me that humans have always tried explaining away difficult questions by calling it God.
You are correct of course. Everything is inherent to change. The question is why. Why is there motion in the first place? Is it that bad for one to be alone? Apparently so. I say it's all about companionship. Companionship i.e. love. Bless you man.
@@waldwassermann I guess I would say that I do not know. If I am asked a question that has no answer I say that I do not know vs filling that gap with a god. If that is done, god becomes an increasingly small figure as we discover more things with science.
I met a Christian scientist who had an interesting personal theory. If Adam and Eve were created as adults and not children, then why not create an Earth that was already middle aged.
With that logic God can also create human race with evolution. Then I would ask that guy why accept one but not the other? And to side not. young earth creationists actually explain light with that logic. You know if they dont do that light speed alone disproves young earth. If we go back to your question, why it cant be, it can be but they are both lack of biblical support. Bible doesnt say light or earth, neither of them were created in middle stage. This cant be used argument, it is just an assumption with no biblical justification. Also in Bible it clearly says god created things in order.

Is something missing or gone unnoticed that it has needed millions or billions of years for rocks formations along with sedimentary processes which have eventually and more than once change their levels in techtonic movements of the earth crust? That's what has happened if we can find sea shells fossils on tops of mountains or in rocks formations overthere.
Science can always take two sides.. science used to believe and teach that the earth was flat to. If you want real proof that God exists, then ask God to come into your life. You have to be open to God being real for God to come.. we can't be parent'd if we don't come home right or wrong ? So think of God as a scientific experiment.. without all the information you actually cannot prove that God is not real. So on behalf of science believe in him whole heartedly reach out to him and tell him how confusing it is to even begin to believe and you could use a bit of proof...ask him to prove himself to you but do it with your heart. If you do it with you brain and the dount you already have then theres your answer. Tell him that you are willing and open and you want God to come into your life think of him through your heart try not to not think of him with your brain it'll get you nowhere.. I grew up protestant meaning I think I went to church twice in my life we never talked about God it wasn't in our house there was no Bible no pictures of Jesus nada... and when I was approximately 40 years old which is 12 years ago I wanted to know if God was real and this is what I did and sure enough I promise you with every fiber of my being and I swear on my my son's life God is real! O felt completely stupid talking to god bcz i disnt know him.. I may as well have been speaking Cantonese that's how foreign it was. I was sitting in a room by myself and I put my hands in the air and I said why can't you reveal yourself to me I don't see what the big deal. Everybody says you are real why can't you be real to me… and I was in no particular mood at all I was very mundane hum drum in fact very low of energy and I promise you that in the moment's going forward I felt this amazing energy come into the room. Well there was with this force entering my body and all of a sudden my mouth was pulled back to a smile as big as acheshire cat. He was literally pulling at my cheeks. I couldn't have frowned for a million dollars I was astonished at the feeling of love that was filling up my body. That grew and grew and I was like oh my Lord you are here I can actually feel your presence and it made me stand I was feeling so glorious and attached to that energy that power that was in that room the holy spirit as they call it.. as I now call it. Further more. ... why wouldn't you want to find out and have the greatest power the universe has ever given us which the creator of it all.. Why omit life after death when all you have in believing evolution is a worm filled body and nothing. An eternity of emptiness. What's the point of that? Where as I get to live forever.. in his kingdom. Why..bcz it's written his book. It says clearly that the only way to the father is through Jesus. So you don't get to go through life not believing in Jesus and get to go to God and heaven doesn't work like that. It is a blind faith that your loan is secured. It is true that faith that you will have a relationship with him that's all he wants. It doesn't need you to go to church he doesn't need you to walk around preaching all day religion to religion religion he just wants to have a relationship with you. I start everyday with gratitude and I thank him for my life I thank him for food clothing and shelter in my health I thank him for every blessing that I ever have every moment of breath is his gift. The fact that you were even born is a miracle and should be considered impossible since you were one of a few trillion sperm but you somehow managed to come out of your mother's room and land on some rock floating through infinite space you're already proving that God is real because mathematically it's already impossible. And everything written in that Bible is true. You know they found Noah's Ark. Ontop of Mount Ararat in turkey. They did a 3-D image and wouldn't you know it it is of perfect dimension the exact same footage and cubic circumference described in The Bible and in the exact location The Bible says it would be... Sure some local evolutionary scientists said it's just rock formation but yet other experts say no I'm sorry that type of formation at that altitude on that mountain is extremely impossible to explain.. The 3-D imagery also shown is things that were described to be on Noah's Ark. That were the nails of keeping the ship together and that type of material would not have been found on the top of the mountain buried for hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years.. May you find God now.. its incredible once you do bcz I haven't felt along ever since and I've felt incredible moments with God.. Ps. Don't ever discount something just bcz its easy to do so... can you prove to me that you love your mom or your dad or maybe a child if you have one? Nope. You can't prove love to anybody yet it's real isn't it.. Do you know that the human brain is only a system's operator. That's all it does is operate all of your systems in your body and save memories and data like a computer. But science cannot explain the part about where hope comes from perseverance courage the willingness to go on the ability to heal ourselves the ability to push forward joy sadness, they the excitement of life or for anythig at all.. All those things come from your God. You know the instinct when you know something is gonna happen or you knew something would work out where you said to yourself ooh that doesn't feel right. You questioned it bcz something inside of you told you.. your brain can't do any of those things nor can sci3nxe explain where they cone from. Alll of those are your godshot moments that's God coming to you and you dont even know. Ask science to prove any of that... they cant.. ill pray for you.. humble yourself amd get on your knees, get out of entitlement and walk into gratitude. Ask him to come into your life. Sorry I've gone on so long but there's one more thing. You want to know what I've noticed in life is that when someone is at their most weakest moment of their life maybe their child is sick and hospital on life support or with leukemia I loved one is on their deathbed.. It's then do you see everybody on their knees saying please God if you are real please please save my child's life please God if you're real I've never asked you for anything in my life but I'm begging you now please come and save my child! Now why would an atheist do that? Because I believe that we instinctively all know where we are from and when we are at our weakest moment do we call out to our father. No one ever needs God unless they have suffered or are suffering it turns out.. But the Lord giveth and the Lord take it away... praise him. Good luck.
The sedimentary process time is a theory. There was no proven evidence about the exact time. And the time is relative. For example, some chemical mineralization can happened in a matter of months.
And perhaps in tectonic movements, depends on how we perceived the ground zero to the first creation which nobody knows. There are still mysteries unsolved. We should test ourselves. I studied geology. So often I questioned these kind of stuffs that seem hard to correlate. As time goes by, my faith has grown to have the better sense.
Even the great Stephen Hawkins said before his death that with all that we know about mankind space the Earth none of it would be possible without "him"... May you find the Lord now
0:46 Yes! Worldwide we do find the fossils in the same order, it is totally consistent, and we have specific species called index fossils helping us to date the individual layers. 3:08 Already now he’s making up things about how we have ocean fossils on the bottom, and freshwater and land animals higher up.
During the humans died. Have you come across something that shows human’s fossilized in the layers in time of the flood. Thank you so much for sharing this🙏
yes we actually have fossils of a hominid called homo floriensis which was alive around 50-100 thousand years ago. they lived in indonesia and were about 3ft tall. now i know 50 thousand years is a little longer than 6 thousand but if early humans interest you i very much encourage you to do some research on all the hominid fossils we have because it’s cool stuff.
Evolution is a theory based on observation of the evidence. Creationism is based on trying to make the evidence fit a belief. The people who wrote Genesis didn’t write it as a science textbook. It is poetry. Those evangelicals who insist on a literal interpretation don’t understand the context or intent of the writing itself.
Yup. Science always follows the evidence, creationists start with a predrawn conclusion and handwave dismiss anything we know about nature through Science if it's inconvenient to them.
The late Douglas Adams summed up creationist obsessives pefectly in asking “Isn’t it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?”
One of the main arguments against evolution is that there are no transitional fossils between different species. This is often used as evidence that evolution is not a real process, but rather a theory that has been created by scientists to fit the evidence. However, this argument is based on a misunderstanding of what fossils are and how they are formed. Fossils are the preserved remains of organisms that lived in the past. They can be bones, teeth, shells, or even footprints. Fossils are rare, and they are often incomplete. This is because the conditions that are necessary for fossilization are very specific. The organism must die in an environment that is free of oxygen, and the remains must be buried quickly before they can be destroyed by scavengers or the elements. Because fossils are so rare, it is not surprising that there are no transitional fossils between all known species. However, this does not mean that evolution is not a real process. There are many examples of transitional fossils that show how different species have evolved over time. For example, there are fossils of horses that show how their teeth have changed over time as they evolved from grazing animals to browsers. Another argument against evolution is that the religious community was cheated by science. This argument is based on the belief that the Bible is the literal word of God, and that it contains all the information that we need to know about the origin of life and the universe. However, this argument ignores the fact that the Bible was written by human beings, and that it is therefore subject to human error. The Bible was written over a period of many centuries by different authors. These authors had different cultures, different languages, and different understandings of the world. As a result, there are many inconsistencies in the Bible. For example, the Bible says that the Earth is flat, but we know that the Earth is round. The Bible also says that the Earth is only a few thousand years old, but we know that the Earth is billions of years old. The fact that the Bible contains errors does not mean that it is not a valuable book. The Bible contains many important moral teachings, and it can be a source of comfort and inspiration for many people. However, we should not use the Bible as a scientific textbook. Science is based on evidence, and the evidence shows that evolution is a real process. In conclusion, the argument against evolution based on fossils and the assumption that the religious community was cheated by science is not a valid argument. There are many examples of transitional fossils that show how different species have evolved over time. The Bible is not a scientific textbook, and it should not be used to challenge the evidence for evolution.
If there was such a flood wouldn't rapid and catastrophic flooding be very injurious and destructive to soft bodied organisms? How does a massive flood assist preservation?
Not to mention why would a sudden flood create well defined sediment layers with different organisms filtered almost perfectly in each layer. Wouldn’t a flash flood just mix all the corpses together indiscriminately as one layer?
To Team Alleluia: depends on the angle. If a soft bodied organism is swept away thousands or at least hundreds of miles, it arrives in minuscule shreds. Even creatures with spines would arrive in small bone fragments, usually too far apart for assembling as one skeleton. If mud is dumped at the right angle, which happens when the water is supersaturated with mud particles, the mud comes like a mold, and the softness of the mud is sufficient to preserve the soft bodies organism.
@@tone9358 Same as my last point to Team Alleluia : you think of what happens when the waters are not saturated, yes, the things would mix - but with supersaturated water at high speeds, like 20 m/s, deposits happen during the Flood, and separate things from each other. Where land animals were living before the Flood, there is usually exactly one layer of fossils. Dated to whenever the biotope is supposed to have lived.
@@tone9358 actually that's not what is seen in more recent events. There is defined layering when there are currents involved. The flood would have had currents and debris flows unlike anything we've ever seen. It's very possible to get the separate layers that way.

The speaker pushes his narrative, manipulating the audience with big claims made over selected information, and draws conclusion based on false statements. To be honest, everything in this video is at best disengenuine - nothing in it disproves evolution. Watching this is a waste of time. To illustrate, everything listed at 09:00 is a fallacy and even so can still be disproven. For example, cetaceans went from aquatic to terrestrial and then back to aquatic - with changes that can be traced over time, or over "layers", but with key elements that link them back to certain classes. Also, you can't make up a story about what happened to an animal before it died when looking at its fossil and then make a claim based on that story, it's a false statement which leads to fallacy by definition. For instance, the two fish he showed - he assumes they were both alive and therefore rapidly buried. Well, they could've got stuck and died. Even if you assume rapid burial, it doesn't connect back to the flood, you can't flood a marine animal and a flood most certainly wouldn't bury the ocean in dirt. EVEN if it did, he only showed two examples out of tens of thousands. And finally, animals don't turn into fossils in the blink of an eye after being put in dirt or flooded with water. YOU can go out there and WITNESS evolution yourself - see TREY the explainer's "rapid evolution". If you go against evolution, you not only end up embarrassing yourself like this guy, but also going against your faith. Evolution can't be disproven - so what? Does it hinder your faith? Do you need to put your own logic between the Bible and God's creation in order to believe? Take God's word as he gave it to you even if the things you see seem to go against it, that's the point of faith.
Great comment and I agree with everything. However one point that you missed is that flooding and storms do generate sedimentation in the marine environment. Most preserved sedimentary rock that formed on the continental shelf was the result of the erosion/deposition of sediments from these storms. Flooding can also cause rivers to overflow which generates an influx of sediment into the marine.

It appears that you are not looking at your own "side" with skepticism since you believe it to be "honest, truthful and CORRECT..." So I guess you think that others should look at their own side with skepticism, since they are not correct.
Let me ask you a simple question: How do you know that the world and everything in it, wasn't created this morning, 5 minutes before you "woke up"? You, your house, your car, your friends, the Bible, all created this morning.

How do you know God didn't create you and the world this morning? God can do anything.

But why are there no fossils of humans to assertion that men lived and we're buried along with all these creatures? Just curious
A likely cause is in Geneis 6:2 -- "that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose." It's interesting that there's a defined distinction between "the sons of God" and "the daughters of men". If the "sons" were men/human of Adamic descent, then why were they not plainly indicated as such?
The term "sons of God" in Hebrew can contextually mean "angels"; the book of Job, written earlier than Genesis, also used the same phrase to mean the same thing (ref Job 1:6; 2:1). Like Adam, they were also directly created by God, but they're immaterial (without physical bodies) and were not created from the dust of the earth.
God created creatures "according to their kind" (1:21, 24-25). Hence, angels and mankind were of different created kinds. And when God specifically commanded man (male and female) to "be fruitful and multiply (1:28)", it meant that the earth be populated by HUMANKIND through the physical union of man and woman.
God's judgment (Gen 6:1-7) was against the wickedness -- NATURAL EVIL -- that He saw in what has multiplied across the earth -- "There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown. (Genesis 6:4)". The "giants" were brought about by the union between "the sons of God" (angels) and "the daughters of men" (humans). This is an ABOMINATION to God because they are not part of His original created order.
When God said, "I will destroy man..." (Gen 6:7), "destroy" meant "to erase", "blot out", "wipe away". Given the (lack of) human fossilization, I believe that God was literally dead serious in His judgment such that He "erased" / "blotted out" / "wiped away" any trace of the abominable HYBRID (angelic-human) population from the earth...except Noah and his family of seven people. God was specific about "the wickedness of man", and did not cite the same abomination to have occurred among all the other creatures, so they were not "erased".

Except not.
Evolution is not spontaneously morphing into an entirely different species. The closest to such a phenomenon would be metamorphosis. While metamorphosis does occur in nature, it is not synonymous with speciation.
Speciation occurs when organisms of the same species are separated and endure separate natural pressures over many generations which result in genetic and physiological changes significant enough that the descendants of those organisms can no longer interbreed. The offspring of those organisms have become separate species in other words.
Regarding time scale, it depends on what particular organisms we are speaking of. Simple single celled organisms can evolve very quickly as they have generation after generation within a single day. When doctors tell us to complete a regiment of antibiotics, they are telling us that because failure to do so may result in the strongest most resistant organisms surviving and passing on their genes in the form of much stronger more resistant infection.
Again, evolve does not mean an organism spontaneously changes into another organism. Evolution is population mechanics/genetics over time.
Humans did not come from any modern monkey or ape. Our ancestors were humans until we go far back enough we don’t recognize them as humans.
There are literally libraries of data regarding natural selection. We in fact do have bones and fossils from prehistory to corroborate this. Hypothetically, even if we didn’t, there is still ample evidence of biological evolution in genetic code (and no, that does not refer to code as a computer programmer would understand it).
You’re attempting to create a false dichotomy; either you believe deities exist, or you believe natural phenomena occur. I remember this sort of fundamentalist evangelical indoctrination from the 1980s and 1990s.
One may believe in deities while also understanding the scientific process, and how we came to know it.
Conversely, one may not believe in deities, but believe in fantastical or dubious claims such as those intrinsic within astrology or solipsism.
Evolutionary biology is not a religion. This was confirmed even in the legal system in the 2005 Kitsmiller vs. Dover decision.
Unfortunately, fraudulent organizations such as Answers in Genesis and Living Waters ministries have purposefully confused the definition of evolution as it pertains to biology.

Who authored Corinthians?
Impressive that you choose a biblical character from 2000 years ago in an attempt to argue against modern science. No doubt that you have a crayon illustration as evidence
So riddle me this:
Gen 7:11 the flood commences on the 17th day of the 2nd month of Noah's 600th year.
7:12 it rains for 40 days and nights
7:24 the waters prevail on the earth for 150 days
8:3 the waters recede over 150 days
So far, depending on how you count we are either 300 (the 7:12 40 days are included in the 7:24 150 days), or 340 days into the flood. (that is 10 - 11 months)
8:4 on the 17th day of the 7th month the ark touches down on Mt. Ararat.
8:5 the waters continue to recede until the tenth month
so presumably these happen during the 8:3 150 days?
8:6-8 after 40 days.... so is that 340/380 days now?
Noah sends out a raven, then a dove
8:10-11 Noah waits 7 days and sends out the dove again, it returns with an olive leaf
8:12 Noah waits another 7 days and sends out the dove again; it does not return
This puts us on a grand total of 40+150+150+40+7+7 = 394 days
So
Gen 7:11 the flood commences on the 17th day of the 2nd month of Noah's 600th year
Gen 8:13 the earth is dry-ish by the 1st of the 1st of the 601st year
Gen 8:14 the earth is completely dry by the 27th of the 2nd month.
The full duration of the flood is then 10 days in excess of a year (being 17-2-600 end 27-2-600)
That would be noticeably less than our 394 days.
We are out by more than half a month that is unaccounted for, almost three weeks.
Now that sort of error is fine if you are talking about a hundred year long matter, but this is barely more than a year. a three week mistake is pretty major in this case.
Now maybe I made a counting mistake somewhere... if we assume that the first 40 days are included in the first 150 days, we end up on ten days short of a year, so that does not work. If anything one could assume we somehow lost a week of waiting between Noah sending out the first dove after sending out the raven, but that just makes the mistake even greater.
The reality of course is that the flood narrative is actually two separate versions of the same story out of two separate traditions, interwoven with each other by a later writer. you have what is known as the Yahwist narrative (Gen 6:1-8, 7:1-5, 7:7, 7:12, 7:17-18, 7:23, 8:6-12, 8:13b, 8:20-22, and 9:18-27) and all the rest make up the Priestly narrative (Gen6:9-22, 7:6, 7:8-11, 7:13-16, 7:19-22, 7:24-8:5, 8:13a, 8:14-19, 9:1-17, 9:28-29). There are archaeological finds of both of these narratives in isolate (that is a Yahwist text with just the Yahwist bits, and a Priestly text with just the Priestly bits) We know that this is two versions of the same story interwoven with one another.
This is why one verse explains that Noah should take 7 pairs of all clean animals, and one pair of all unclean animals (7:2), yet elsewhere God sends single pairs of all animals, clean and unclean alike to Noah. (7:8) why sometimes the flood is caused solely by the rain but in other bits we also see mention of "the springs of the great deep" (7:11) implying waters both falling in from the heaven AND rising up from underground.
This time inconsistency disappears (sort of) when you do not try to reconcile the two separate narratives. All this to say that to literally interpret the flood narrative in Genesis is a fool's game. It gets even worse because what do we find on the 5th tablet of the epic of Gilgamesh. Note that while the Jawhist wrote around the 10th-9th century BCE, and the Priestly author around the 6th century BCE, the Epic of Gilgamesh was written sometime between the 21st and 13th century BCE (so significantly earlier basically). We find a flood narrative from which the Genesis flood account clearly took inspiration.
So Gen 6- 9 represents not a historical record of real events, but the interwoven product of two different Hebrew versions of the same Sumerian myth.
For an organisation that purports to deeply study Genesis, you guys are really shameless in withholding well established knowledge about your primary source.

@@lonnierh0dgejr41 and I did not even address the rock layers part of the argument.
Hell my next angle of attack consists of biblical year counting and concluding that the Egyptians were already in Egypt building pyramids during the flood, and continued to do so during and after with no indication of any disturbance. Keep in mind that the Egyptians are supposedly descended from Noah's son Ham.
Turns out that people have always been half decent at counting years, so the ages of many old kingdom pyramids are fairly easy to corroborate. So our biblical year counting exercise cannot accurately determine these historical facts.
Which again results in the simple conclusion: interpreting genesis literally is a fool's game.

Hebrew year is 355 days and they didn't have our Gregorian calendar months.
"The Jewish calendar is lunisolar-i.e., regulated by the positions of both the moon and the sun. It consists usually of 12 alternating lunar months of 29 and 30 days each (except for Ḥeshvan and Kislev, which sometimes have either 29 or 30 days), and totals 353, 354, or 355 days per year."

If the flood created all the layers, then why aren’t all the fossils in the same layer? Why are there so many different layers. It only lasted a few months. Where are the human fossils?
There are SO MANY problems with believing the flood narrative as a literal historical event. It's a purity test of faith because you have to dismiss pretty much all of science to believe it.
Because event like that was extremely violent . Mountains came down left and right. Genesis is oversimplified need to know basic, noahs point of view that doesn’t explain or describe all events surrounding flood timeline.

One question....with all the fossilized remains found throughout the world based on the Flood as described in Genesis, why are there no human fossils in you presentation. If the flood happened in such a rapid time frame, there would be millions of human fossil remains as well in these rock layers.
Please help us understand!
The Flood was brought down upon the Earth because of the behavior of humans as Punishment. The concept of Human time has no correlation to the concept of God's Time. Reasonable thinking would therefore deduce that there should be all types of creatures fossilized in the Rock layers including mammals and humans. The Great Flood theory "Has To" to coincide with the existence of man and mammals or the story of Noah and the Ark is just that a story!
Realistically Noone knows the truth. How about we all look within, find what gives each of us " Individual Peace" and then move on. Respect the choice others have made if different from yours and let us all coexist in the here and now.
Faith should be an individual choice. There has been enough blood shed in the name of Religion to last for the rest of eternity. No matter what your choice, Believe it, Live it but never make anyone else suffer in any way because of it!
I like the way u speak.
buahahaha I think the same thing
Question: where are the fossil records of animals we have now? And why did Noah not bring the dinosaurs with him on the ark ?
What made you think that dinosaurs were not included in the ark? Are you looking for the biggest dinosaurs inside the ark? Noah doesn't need to bring the biggest one. Noah was told to bring animals of their kind. So seven pairs of dog will suffice. Seven pairs of cats will suffice. Did Noah collect all of them from all over the world? No. The bible said that the animals went to Noah by themselves.
Why are there soft tissues of t-rex dinosaurs found in their bones if they are 300 million years old already? Did the soft tissues miraculously survive for 300 million years or are those dinosaur bones not really that very old as scientists want to claim? You know which is the more plausible answer.
There are even stegosaurus carved in the Angkor Wat temple. That is proof that the humans who built the Angkor Wat have seen the stegosaurus which is supposed to have lived 160 million years ago. Was the Angkor Wat built 160 million years ago or was the stegosaurus alive on the 12th century (when the Angkor Wat was built)?

Here is the most often used equation for getting the age of an igneous rock from the results of an AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry) data set.
D = D0 + N(t) (eλt − 1)
t is age of the sample,
D is number of atoms of the daughter isotope in the sample,
D0 is number of atoms of the daughter isotope in the original composition,
N is number of atoms of the parent isotope in the sample at time t (the present), given by N(t) = Noe-λt,
λ is the decay constant of the parent isotope, equal to the inverse of the radioactive half-life of the parent isotope times the natural logarithm of 2.
Tell me how can anyone know D0 "The number of the daughter isotopes in the original composition", when the origin of the original composition supposedly took place millions or even billions of years ago before anybody was around to take the measurement? I must also point out that the D0 in this equation is not a product of the equation but a requirement of the equation. Without it, it won’t work.
When testing modern rocks; rocks whose formation was observed, the daughter isotope percentages at formation vary wildly and are in fact never zero. This happens for two reasons 1. Because the melt itself (lava) can contain varying amounts of the parent and daughter isotopes. 2. Because the rate at which the rock cools can have a large effect on how much of the daughter isotope gets trapped in the matrix before it solidifies. If levels at rock formation in modern observed samples vary then one must accept that rocks from the past acted in like manner. Making the assumption that there are no daughter isotopes at formation for older samples when this is clearly not supported by modern samples is disingenuous at best and an outright lie at worst. If the starting ratios are not known then there is no math that can find the date. The dates used and accepted by supporters of evolution are in fact nothing but guesses based off of unproven assumptions.
Show me an equation that can give an accurate date from the results of an AMS without relying on the unverifiable daughter isotopes being zero at solidification. If you cannot then your belief in the dates it provides is called faith.
Isochron methods use the same data from the equation above to make their plots and as such suffer from the same dilemma... *The goal of the isochronic method is to identify and eliminate samples with possible contamination in situ or during handling and does nothing to eliminate the mathematical and logic errors inherent in math in first place.* All that has been achieved by Isochron methods is a plot made of even more errors. There is no mathematical way one can determine the level of a coefficient without knowing the starting values of the variables used. The only reliable constants in the equations used are the decay rate of the isotopes (see Appendices A. at the bottom of this paper) and the rate of the passage of time. Without the starting ratios of parent and daughter isotopes math cannot determine an accurate date. You can find the oldest and youngest possible date that a sample could be by plugging in starting ratios at both of the extremes. But the dates obtained would give such a wide spread as to be useless. In fact you can obtain just about any date by simply plugging in whatever starting ratios will give you the date you want. Assuming that the ratios are zero for older unknown samples when every modern sample shows this to be wrong is..... Self induced ignorance. The level of self dilution displayed by those promoting the accuracy of radio dating is absurd.
Appendices A...
Apparently researchers at Stanford and Cornell have shown that some radio isotope decay rates can be affected by magnetic fields and ray interaction... The results of this research add even more question to the accuracy of the standard radio dating equations.
May God open your mind as well as you heart.
Man, you really unpacked it. Are you studying the subject or is this purely out of interest that you know all of this?
@@area-xp3sw
I was just searching for the truth and found something about AMS dating that just does not fit.... Looked into it in more depth and found why... I have talked to quite a few so called "experts" in the field and not a one could explain this discrepancy.
The truth is out there you just need to look.
Do you know all dinosaur fossils have carbon-14 in them? infact the amount is delta 2-3 which is less than 35000 years old. they cannot be older than 50000 years because C14 has half life 5730 years. there would be zero C14 left even after 100000 years. The reason they didn't carbon date dinosaur bones is they thought that they would find EXACTLY NO C14 (because of the ASSUMPTION that they would be old) . This is very rare that someone gets the permission to carbon date them.This also explains why we find dinosaur tissue and even blood cells , osteocytes etc . There is LOADS OF C14 in dinosaurs. Also diamonds and coal have C14(less studies on those so far). WHICH IS WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT IF THE EARTH IS YOUNG, AND COAL WAS CREATED FROM DEAD PLANTS AND ANIMALS WHICH WERE RAPIDLY BURIED.(yes, you can very quickly create coal under high pressure). Also if the earth were young this automatically solves the 35000 years -6000 years discrepancy(since c14 couldnt fully form in the atmosphere to as much as it is now yet when the dinosaurs died)
A good geochronometer must either have little to no initial incorporation of the daughter isotope or must have a fixed ratio from which the radiogenic and nonradiogenic proportions can be determined. For example, common-Pb (or the natural occurrence of non-radiogenic lead) includes radiogenic isotopes (206, 207, 208) as well as non-radiogenic isotopes (204). If the ratio of these is constant or measurable, then we can separate the radiogenic from the non-radiogenic to extract meaningful age information.
@@jvowen6555
"If the ratio of these is constant or measurable"
And how can you be sure of this constant? Constant over what time frame, a few observed hours or days? Certainly not over millions of years. Clearly this is an assumption... One that cannot be confirmed...
Even with this method the starting ratios must still be assumed.. If there was any parent isotope in the mix at all it would invalidate the results...
In actual fact, non religious people don't hate people who, for whatever reason, choose to ignore science. They simply don't take assertions like this seriously.
That's quite a universal statement there. Maybe a more accurate or kind of believable statement would be "In my view, most non religious people don't hate people who..."
It's a fact that many non religious people hate religious people who 1) are scientifically ignorant or 2) disagree with them about some disputable area of "science".
I don't hate religious people, rather I would generally agree with the core principles of Christianity such as every life matters and be kind to your neighbors.

So we arive at the same moral place. We just took different paths, and its ok. We are still neighbors.
Rock layers of the same age have the same fossil fauna in them around the world. It's how geologist correlate the age of rock strata. There's also a geological feature called an unconformity.

Evolution is a theory, no proof whatsoever. Life has never been initiated in a lab, no record of intermediary life forms, only fully functional developed forms. The classic diagram for evolution starts with a monkey and ends with a human. If the theory is true, each one in that developmental sequence is more capable of survival than the previous, yet we don't see the more "adapted" or "successful" ones alive, do we? Just the monkey and the human. Evolution requires you to have faith because you were not there, have never seen it, and can not reproduce it, so don't knock the other side who just like you believes by faith.
Someone should look at C14 dating, the lack of C14 in oil and the presence of C14 in dinosaur bones.

what about coral? it can’t grow as large as it is now in only 6000 years. not to mention that coral only grows in VERY specific conditions being warm and calm water. idk about you but a great flood doesn’t sound warm or calm to me
@@farplenorp yes it is because every single coral species alive today grows WAY TOO SLOW to be as large as the ones in big reefs today. if there was a flood it would have killed all coral worldwide so it would HAVE TO had grown to it’s size today in 6000 years. by every study done, disregarding christian studies because they start the study with bias and they all go against every other study done by real scientists, coral CAN NOT grow that fast. there’s a plethora of other reasons with the coral but i’m not going into that.
the christian “science” book called “origins linking science and scripture” by ariel roth published in 1998 claims the fastest growing species of coral can grow from 26.4-43.2 cm per year. which he cites as from a 1968 paper called “comparative growth rates of some reef corals in the caribbean.” the max growth rate in that paper? 16.8cm a year. wildly different than roth’s claim and WAY to slow to support a 6000 year old earth. roth blatantly mis-cited the paper. now why would i trust other christian science books when it is so clear that they misrepresent information?

@@chainingsolid it would have to be calm. and it would have to be the PERFECT salinity. if there was a global flood i doubt it would be calm but even if it were all the water would mix causing the salinity of the ocean to fall because it is being diluted by fresh water. coral is VERY sensitive to a change in salinity and would die.
@@Prince_Az_Myr citation needed. but yeah it probably has considering we’ve been polluting the ocean with sunscreen that destroys coral for decades it makes sense that the GBR has grown at a record pace recently since we’ve been switching to mineral sunscreen which isn’t harmful. but coral doesn’t grow fast it has a maximum rate of 2cm a year for non branching species which has been studied repeatedly. reefs just can’t be as big as they are if they started 6000 years ago.

Can we trust an overwhelming body of scientific thought, as opposed to an old book? Er, yes!

As an old world creationist, these are of the most easily refutable arguments I've ever heard. God creating the world via scientific processes, over millions of years make him look more glorious. Science does not infringe on his power, rather it amplifies it.
One of the things they will never get. They dont even think a bit. Still most of the population believes a creator, most of the scientists still believe in god. Most of scientific theories, discoveries,developments made by theists even most of the time directly from clergy, including the ones they fiercly object. Yet they talk like science is enemy of God and lead by atheists
How about light from very distant stars measured by parallax that had to have travelled thousands of light years to reach our eyeballs?

Dude, Jesus didn't write the bible. Various mostly anonymous authors wrote various books, many of which were compiled into the bible.
Trusting the bible doesn't mean "trusting Jesus", it means trusting some sometimes anonymous authors, some of which explicitly state that they're only reporting what they've heard, for example.
And neither is it about "trusting secular scientist", since science isn't about scientists, it's about what the evidence and experiments demonstrate. Everything about their method is completely transparent, you can read how they did the tests, and you can repeat the tests yourself.
Many of those scientists are Christians, by the way...!

Apparently, you ignore all the evidence and focus solely on your image of a man pointing a finger. You have to have super faith to believe in evolution.

One truth of the Bibel you can confirm,in the records,is that a man Named Jesus was crucified at the time it states in the Bibel and all details confirmed independently. What's the ods that it's not the messia. Fourty different historians have wrote about this,wile only 4 wrote about the emporer of the same time.

They floated in their nests

As a science-trusting Christian, I am truly baffled by the nonsense other believers fall for. The narrator doesn't even have the most basic knowledge of evolution.

I think that according to the time lines and genealogical lines given in the Bible, it's roughly a 2000 year period give or take going from the creation week to Abraham, another 2000 or so going from Abraham to Jesus and then another 2000 or so going from Jesus to now.
I personally went through Genesis myself in the genealogical list given from Adam to Noah, the ages they were when they became the fathers of the next in line to the age Noah is written to have been when the flood occurred and got about 1656 years.
That's right. I did the same thing.

We're in either the 5th or 6th day of creation when you look at time in context of a day being a thousand years and a thousand years being a day for God. The 7th day of rest will be the millennial reign of Christ. At least that's my theory. I might be wrong.

Nope. The earth is 4.5 billion years old. The universe 13.8 billion. Adam and Eve, perhaps 50,000 to 100,000 years ago. The genealogies have gaps with only the most important people mentioned.
I consider myself an open minded agnostic. A question I have is , is it not possible that great cataclysmic activities have always happened without the explanation of a spirit God causing them ? Seems plausible to me that humans have always tried explaining away difficult questions by calling it God.
it seems plausible to me too that others always try to explain God away even if they call it an accident or pure luck
You are correct of course. Everything is inherent to change. The question is why. Why is there motion in the first place? Is it that bad for one to be alone? Apparently so. I say it's all about companionship. Companionship i.e. love. Bless you man.
@@waldwassermann you as well friend
@@waldwassermann I guess I would say that I do not know. If I am asked a question that has no answer I say that I do not know vs filling that gap with a god. If that is done, god becomes an increasingly small figure as we discover more things with science.
I met a Christian scientist who had an interesting personal theory. If Adam and Eve were created as adults and not children, then why not create an Earth that was already middle aged.
With that logic God can also create human race with evolution. Then I would ask that guy why accept one but not the other? And to side not. young earth creationists actually explain light with that logic. You know if they dont do that light speed alone disproves young earth.
If we go back to your question, why it cant be, it can be but they are both lack of biblical support. Bible doesnt say light or earth, neither of them were created in middle stage. This cant be used argument, it is just an assumption with no biblical justification.
Also in Bible it clearly says god created things in order.
Human's sin and animals and plants are punished also for human sin.
yup! the hole earth ! When you sin others around you are affected. and the action brings about a cause which in turn brings on effect and so on. This is science.

Is something missing or gone unnoticed that it has needed millions or billions of years for rocks formations along with sedimentary processes which have eventually and more than once change their levels in techtonic movements of the earth crust? That's what has happened if we can find sea shells fossils on tops of mountains or in rocks formations overthere.
ACTUALLY no.
Check out the fossil record at Joggins NS (Canada) on the internet.
Simple evidence tying together 50+ feet of sedimentary layers.
Science can always take two sides.. science used to believe and teach that the earth was flat to. If you want real proof that God exists, then ask God to come into your life. You have to be open to God being real for God to come.. we can't be parent'd if we don't come home right or wrong ? So think of God as a scientific experiment.. without all the information you actually cannot prove that God is not real. So on behalf of science believe in him whole heartedly reach out to him and tell him how confusing it is to even begin to believe and you could use a bit of proof...ask him to prove himself to you but do it with your heart. If you do it with you brain and the dount you already have then theres your answer. Tell him that you are willing and open and you want God to come into your life think of him through your heart try not to not think of him with your brain it'll get you nowhere.. I grew up protestant meaning I think I went to church twice in my life we never talked about God it wasn't in our house there was no Bible no pictures of Jesus nada... and when I was approximately 40 years old which is 12 years ago I wanted to know if God was real and this is what I did and sure enough I promise you with every fiber of my being and I swear on my my son's life God is real! O felt completely stupid talking to god bcz i disnt know him.. I may as well have been speaking Cantonese that's how foreign it was. I was sitting in a room by myself and I put my hands in the air and I said why can't you reveal yourself to me I don't see what the big deal. Everybody says you are real why can't you be real to me… and I was in no particular mood at all I was very mundane hum drum in fact very low of energy and I promise you that in the moment's going forward I felt this amazing energy come into the room. Well there was with this force entering my body and all of a sudden my mouth was pulled back to a smile as big as acheshire cat. He was literally pulling at my cheeks. I couldn't have frowned for a million dollars I was astonished at the feeling of love that was filling up my body. That grew and grew and I was like oh my Lord you are here I can actually feel your presence and it made me stand I was feeling so glorious and attached to that energy that power that was in that room the holy spirit as they call it.. as I now call it.
Further more. ... why wouldn't you want to find out and have the greatest power the universe has ever given us which the creator of it all.. Why omit life after death when all you have in believing evolution is a worm filled body and nothing. An eternity of emptiness. What's the point of that? Where as I get to live forever.. in his kingdom. Why..bcz it's written his book. It says clearly that the only way to the father is through Jesus. So you don't get to go through life not believing in Jesus and get to go to God and heaven doesn't work like that. It is a blind faith that your loan is secured. It is true that faith that you will have a relationship with him that's all he wants. It doesn't need you to go to church he doesn't need you to walk around preaching all day religion to religion religion he just wants to have a relationship with you. I start everyday with gratitude and I thank him for my life I thank him for food clothing and shelter in my health I thank him for every blessing that I ever have every moment of breath is his gift. The fact that you were even born is a miracle and should be considered impossible since you were one of a few trillion sperm but you somehow managed to come out of your mother's room and land on some rock floating through infinite space you're already proving that God is real because mathematically it's already impossible. And everything written in that Bible is true. You know they found Noah's Ark. Ontop of Mount Ararat in turkey. They did a 3-D image and wouldn't you know it it is of perfect dimension the exact same footage and cubic circumference described in The Bible and in the exact location The Bible says it would be... Sure some local evolutionary scientists said it's just rock formation but yet other experts say no I'm sorry that type of formation at that altitude on that mountain is extremely impossible to explain.. The 3-D imagery also shown is things that were described to be on Noah's Ark. That were the nails of keeping the ship together and that type of material would not have been found on the top of the mountain buried for hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years.. May you find God now.. its incredible once you do bcz I haven't felt along ever since and I've felt incredible moments with God..
Ps. Don't ever discount something just bcz its easy to do so... can you prove to me that you love your mom or your dad or maybe a child if you have one? Nope. You can't prove love to anybody yet it's real isn't it..
Do you know that the human brain is only a system's operator. That's all it does is operate all of your systems in your body and save memories and data like a computer. But science cannot explain the part about where hope comes from perseverance courage the willingness to go on the ability to heal ourselves the ability to push forward joy sadness, they the excitement of life or for anythig at all.. All those things come from your God. You know the instinct when you know something is gonna happen or you knew something would work out where you said to yourself ooh that doesn't feel right. You questioned it bcz something inside of you told you.. your brain can't do any of those things nor can sci3nxe explain where they cone from. Alll of those are your godshot moments that's God coming to you and you dont even know. Ask science to prove any of that... they cant.. ill pray for you.. humble yourself amd get on your knees, get out of entitlement and walk into gratitude. Ask him to come into your life.
Sorry I've gone on so long but there's one more thing. You want to know what I've noticed in life is that when someone is at their most weakest moment of their life maybe their child is sick and hospital on life support or with leukemia I loved one is on their deathbed.. It's then do you see everybody on their knees saying please God if you are real please please save my child's life please God if you're real I've never asked you for anything in my life but I'm begging you now please come and save my child! Now why would an atheist do that? Because I believe that we instinctively all know where we are from and when we are at our weakest moment do we call out to our father. No one ever needs God unless they have suffered or are suffering it turns out.. But the Lord giveth and the Lord take it away... praise him.
Good luck.
The sedimentary process time is a theory. There was no proven evidence about the exact time. And the time is relative.
For example, some chemical mineralization can happened in a matter of months.
And perhaps in tectonic movements, depends on how we perceived the ground zero to the first creation which nobody knows.
There are still mysteries unsolved.
We should test ourselves.
I studied geology. So often I questioned these kind of stuffs that seem hard to correlate.

Evolution is a theory based on observation of the evidence. Creationism is based on trying to make the evidence fit a belief. The people who wrote Genesis didn’t write it as a science textbook. It is poetry. Those evangelicals who insist on a literal interpretation don’t understand the context or intent of the writing itself.
Yup. Science always follows the evidence, creationists start with a predrawn conclusion and handwave dismiss anything we know about nature through Science if it's inconvenient to them.
If God made humans, plants, and animals in millions of years through the process of what scientists call evolution, what is wrong with that?
The late Douglas Adams summed up creationist obsessives pefectly in asking “Isn’t it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?”
If you are taking away parts of the truth for your own insecurities then no it's not enough.
Amen!
Thanks for that! What a great piece of comedy!
One of the main arguments against evolution is that there are no transitional fossils between different species. This is often used as evidence that evolution is not a real process, but rather a theory that has been created by scientists to fit the evidence. However, this argument is based on a misunderstanding of what fossils are and how they are formed.
Fossils are the preserved remains of organisms that lived in the past. They can be bones, teeth, shells, or even footprints. Fossils are rare, and they are often incomplete. This is because the conditions that are necessary for fossilization are very specific. The organism must die in an environment that is free of oxygen, and the remains must be buried quickly before they can be destroyed by scavengers or the elements.
Because fossils are so rare, it is not surprising that there are no transitional fossils between all known species. However, this does not mean that evolution is not a real process. There are many examples of transitional fossils that show how different species have evolved over time. For example, there are fossils of horses that show how their teeth have changed over time as they evolved from grazing animals to browsers.
Another argument against evolution is that the religious community was cheated by science. This argument is based on the belief that the Bible is the literal word of God, and that it contains all the information that we need to know about the origin of life and the universe. However, this argument ignores the fact that the Bible was written by human beings, and that it is therefore subject to human error.
The Bible was written over a period of many centuries by different authors. These authors had different cultures, different languages, and different understandings of the world. As a result, there are many inconsistencies in the Bible. For example, the Bible says that the Earth is flat, but we know that the Earth is round. The Bible also says that the Earth is only a few thousand years old, but we know that the Earth is billions of years old.
The fact that the Bible contains errors does not mean that it is not a valuable book. The Bible contains many important moral teachings, and it can be a source of comfort and inspiration for many people. However, we should not use the Bible as a scientific textbook. Science is based on evidence, and the evidence shows that evolution is a real process.
In conclusion, the argument against evolution based on fossils and the assumption that the religious community was cheated by science is not a valid argument. There are many examples of transitional fossils that show how different species have evolved over time. The Bible is not a scientific textbook, and it should not be used to challenge the evidence for evolution.
If there was such a flood wouldn't rapid and catastrophic flooding be very injurious and destructive to soft bodied organisms? How does a massive flood assist preservation?
Not to mention why would a sudden flood create well defined sediment layers with different organisms filtered almost perfectly in each layer. Wouldn’t a flash flood just mix all the corpses together indiscriminately as one layer?
To Team Alleluia:
depends on the angle.
If a soft bodied organism is swept away thousands or at least hundreds of miles, it arrives in minuscule shreds. Even creatures with spines would arrive in small bone fragments, usually too far apart for assembling as one skeleton.
If mud is dumped at the right angle, which happens when the water is supersaturated with mud particles, the mud comes like a mold, and the softness of the mud is sufficient to preserve the soft bodies organism.
@@tone9358 Same as my last point to Team Alleluia : you think of what happens when the waters are not saturated, yes, the things would mix - but with supersaturated water at high speeds, like 20 m/s, deposits happen during the Flood, and separate things from each other.
Where land animals were living before the Flood, there is usually exactly one layer of fossils. Dated to whenever the biotope is supposed to have lived.
@@tone9358 actually that's not what is seen in more recent events. There is defined layering when there are currents involved. The flood would have had currents and debris flows unlike anything we've ever seen. It's very possible to get the separate layers that way.
@@Fordry Given the benefit of the doubt, we would still not expect to see specific orgasms dissipated among only specific rock layers

@@MarcusHitch- I don't know about anything else, but if he's still mocking the lost, which God says not to do, he is giving God a black eye & needs to repent of that.
So who wrote genesis?
The speaker pushes his narrative, manipulating the audience with big claims made over selected information, and draws conclusion based on false statements. To be honest, everything in this video is at best disengenuine - nothing in it disproves evolution. Watching this is a waste of time.
To illustrate, everything listed at 09:00 is a fallacy and even so can still be disproven. For example, cetaceans went from aquatic to terrestrial and then back to aquatic - with changes that can be traced over time, or over "layers", but with key elements that link them back to certain classes. Also, you can't make up a story about what happened to an animal before it died when looking at its fossil and then make a claim based on that story, it's a false statement which leads to fallacy by definition. For instance, the two fish he showed - he assumes they were both alive and therefore rapidly buried. Well, they could've got stuck and died. Even if you assume rapid burial, it doesn't connect back to the flood, you can't flood a marine animal and a flood most certainly wouldn't bury the ocean in dirt. EVEN if it did, he only showed two examples out of tens of thousands. And finally, animals don't turn into fossils in the blink of an eye after being put in dirt or flooded with water.
YOU can go out there and WITNESS evolution yourself - see TREY the explainer's "rapid evolution". If you go against evolution, you not only end up embarrassing yourself like this guy, but also going against your faith. Evolution can't be disproven - so what? Does it hinder your faith? Do you need to put your own logic between the Bible and God's creation in order to believe? Take God's word as he gave it to you even if the things you see seem to go against it, that's the point of faith.
Great comment and I agree with everything. However one point that you missed is that flooding and storms do generate sedimentation in the marine environment. Most preserved sedimentary rock that formed on the continental shelf was the result of the erosion/deposition of sediments from these storms. Flooding can also cause rivers to overflow which generates an influx of sediment into the marine.
