Seashells on tops of mountains.

There are plenty of things that our cretin counterparts say that leave me breathless but this "upheaval" has got to be the utmost.It is just so frustratingly incomprehensible when they are presented with the calculations of the amount of energy needed to raise the mountains and move the tectonic plates and they just shrug their shoulders - God did it anyway.It is presumably quite OK to disagree on the ethical issues or on morality - whether it is based on the Bible on Gilgamesh or the Quran but to blatantly oppose the calculations....I guess the only way a religion stays intact is lying.

As pandion wrote a bit earlier: "However, if the massive earth upheaval that you imagine actually happened in the short time that is required to fit into your mythology, that much earth movement would have produced enough heat to reduce the entire surface of the earth to molten rock."I know that GDI is the standard answer and thus applicable to any problem. However it would be quite nice to get some or any answers on how exactly were the laws of physics altered allowing plates to move at rapid speeds WITHOUT creating much heat or massive mountain ranges rising without anyone noticing and/or thinking enough of that to write it down.This will (and should) probably be answered in detail in the thread about recent flood but I will not hold my breath.
