I also note that you are compeltely ignoring the main point - that of tools always being found above the fossilized remains of creatures like dinosaurs and others that science accepts as predating humanity, but the Bible requires to have been killed in the flood. Why are metal tools found above biological remains that are far less dense, and should have been able to swim? Why is there no global layer of sediment consistent with a global flood?
When are you going to stop putting me in the YEC group?
I got no problems with all kind of things on top of dinosaurs.
I don't have dinosaurs destroyed by the flood.
I don't see the need of a layer of sediment showing a global flood.
I know the power of water. I lived in Niagara Falls NY for 2 years and listened to the water going over the falls every night as I went to sleep. I was there when prospect point went sailing into the gorge.

The flooding in the midwest is in no way a "flash flood." It consists primarily of rivers overflowing their banks - this is completely different from a true flash flood. Quite to the contrary, the midwestern flooding involves for the most part simple rapidly rising water levels in rivers, not the sudden movement of water from higher ground to lower due to oversaturated ground in higher elevations that defines flash flooding.
Lets see the rain is coming down faster than the rivers can handle the run off. Since there is room at lower levels then the water moves to the lower level. If the lower levels is low enough the water moving will move anything in its way. I even saw a house take off down river on TV.
But if the water was rising at the lower levels leaving no place for the water to run to then there would be no sweeping current to move anything. There would be no sediment layer to amount to anything. What there was would be on top of the surface and would disappear very quickly.

This contradicts every single flood ever observed. All floods shift sediment - ever notice on the news how the water is always muddy? That would be sediment being moved along by the water. Exactly how many floods have you ever seen photos of with perfectly clear water, ICANT?
Who observed the Biblical flood?
No one has ever observed a flood where the oceans were rising faster than the water being rained down on the land. Remember it was also raining on the oceans just as it was on the land. By the time the low area's had all filled (as it had never rained before) the oceans were already meeting them.
So please explain how there would be enough erosion to cause a sediment layer to be all over the earth. I could see enough erosion in the higher elevation to cause a small layer but that could not even compare to the layers that is shown by local flooding.
I know I have read a lot of YEC stuff that makes a huge thick layer producing our coal and oil. I thought you guys had proved all that garbage did not happen.
I think our coal and oil was there billions of years ago.
