Re: Mountains would be lower AFTER
I'd like to know why anyone thinks a steady driving rain over the entire face of the globe--one that raises sea levels nine feet every hour over a period of forty days--would have the effect of raising mountains.
That's hydraulic drilling. The mountains would erode.
The creo Flood model is exactly backwards. The 'antediluvian world' would exhibit higher peaks and deeper valleys. You would see a more level surface in the aftermath of the event, with material scoured from the mountains now shifted to the basins.
And that eroded material would definitely include any seashells that had made it up that far.
Water doesn't push continents around. It doesn't raise mountains. But it does erode them. That is a fact.
We just do not see what we should see if anything like this Flood ever happened.
