Hey TC how's it going?
Edge has a good point - 40 million years is too long for a biblical flood, which is why Dr. Baumgardner developed CPT. If he's trying to prove that a flood could have happened 4000 years ago, then it's a bit far off the mark.
Edge is also right in saying that geologists do not assume a constant rate of continental drift - we don't. The prevailing theory is that the rates were much higher in early Earth history, i.e. 3 billion years ago.
'Course, this is all relatively speaking. The figures that CPT requires are astronomical in comparison.
Do you remember my post in the other topic about what we would expect to see if CPT had happened? Stuff like very extensive volcanic sequences, and incredibly high strain rates? The discovery of things like this could prove CPT - so why isn't anyone looking for them?
