Hi killinghurts,

If a catastrophic earth wide flood event occurred, why do fossils appear near perfectly sorted within the geological strata?
Because they were laid down over a period of million's of years not all at once as YEC'S put forth.
Where in the Bible does it say the flood of some 4300 years ago was a catastrophic event?
It says it rained. It says the fountains of the deep opened up. and because of these the earth was covered with water. It does not say anything like what the YEC'S say about earthquakes, volcanic action or any of the things I read on this site.
The waters in the Bay of Fundy rises from 43' to 53' twice a day every day and have been doing so for a very long time. It is still there.
Just because people can not understand how the earth could be flooded by rising water does not mean that it did not happen.
In fact the entire earth declares that it has been covered with water at least one time in the past as the fossils in and on the mountains are evidence of such an event.
