Okay, but if there was no evidence of a flood, why do we have 1 third of the Himalayas covered with seashells?
Why was a whale's skeleton found on a 3000-foot mountaintop?
Why was Pillow Lava Found on a 15000-foot mountain (pillow lava forms ONLY underwater)?
Maybe you've heard of a little thing called "plate tectonics"? See, all the continents are on these big "plates" that float on top of the earth's fluid mantle. When they run into each other, they push each other up (like wrinkles in a carpet.)
Sometimes this means that areas that were underwater for millenia are thrust up above the water. If they go high enough we call them "mountains."
Seriously, this is like grade-school stuff. How did you miss this? We've only known that the earth's continents move for about 60 years or so (and been measuring it for 20-30 or so.)
The Smithsonian is responsible for hiding much evidence that goes against evolution, so i've heard (that sounds bias on their part).
Hey, I've heard that Elvis is alive and well in a Louisiana trailer park (and he's pregnant with JFK's love-child.) Maybe you shouldn't believe everything you hear.
Anyway, so what? The Smithsonian isn't the be-all end-all of science. Plenty (in fact the majority) of science goes on without any involvment from the Smithsonian. You'll have to do a little better than this. Especially for a guy who said he was a "smart creation scientist" and that he never lost arguments with evolutionists...
