I have asked that very same question many times, and when I get an
answer, it's always the same: the water goes back to the same place
it came from. Of course, those that answer don't say from whence it
came. Or if they do, they don't say why it changed direction.

Please explain how the flood gathered all the smilodons in California (or from a region comparably large) and stuffed them all into one small hole at La Brea. Or do you not want to deal with the evidence?

"Not wanting to deal with the evidence" seems his only route, since
all he has done so far is repeated the same nonsense.

Grotte Cosquer has cave art, just above present day sea level,
and is in open connection with the sea.
It's ±20.000 years old by scientific logic.
It's ante-diluvian by creationist logic.
Any (even temporary) rise in sea level
would have destroyed the fragile paintings.
Hence, no global flood, and a forteri,
sea level is now at its highest
for at least the last 20.000 years.

You seem to forget that it was a magical Flood. It could force continents to move rapidly over vast distances, yet leave delicate foot prints untouched. It could let silt and clay fall out of suspension while moving giant boulders hundreds of miles. It could erode mountains and form new mountains from those materials. Deposit marine limestone over and under aeolian sands. It could rapidly deposit mile thick layers of sediments and cut deep canyons through those layers (well, at least one canyon) without the saturated layers collapsing.

The fact that the paintings you mention are untouched is proof of the magical properties of the Flood.

No matter how magic it was,

But how tall were the mountains? And did the water, after having dumped all the suspended material, squeeze the mountains up to the hights we find today? 'The evidence fits the Flood Theory perfectly!'

What I don't understand is why the floodists try to find a scientific plausible explanation for an event that is supposed to have been, literally, an act of God. Especially when they must know by now that any scientific examination of the 'Flood question' will show that such a flood did not happen.
Why don't they play the magic card? 'We know the Flood happened because it says so in the Bible. Amen. And the fact that the evidence does not support it, is proof that only God could have made it happen. The lack of evidence fits the Biblical Flood scenario perfectly!'

Yeppers. My impression is the Biblical Flood is a just-so story that
seemed plausible at the time it was first spoken, but it's main
purpose was to help illustrate a relationship between God and mankind.
With the advent of science, the details of the Flood are no longer
plausible, but the myth as symbolism remains valid to those of faith. It's a minor percentage of religious folk who ignore the symbology and
seek material evidence for an immaterial cause. The Bible doesn't
mention the Grand Canyon and the faithful have no doctrinal reason to
insist it was made by the Flood.

And yet your eons of time formation of deposits that don't have a
geographic place to get the materials from nearby are always
conveniently found? At least the people who find the grand flood
feasible find a path of it coming into the U.S., and put deposits
where they came from, and what currents might have been expected. And
what does your Geo idea folk say? Nothing, it just was something that
was typical to come about over time.

Why would there be? You think the flood was just one day, and was
somekind of whirlpool ending up ini the tar pit drain? The fact that
it was a place that could trap animals and marine life should be the
focus. And what does one find? Marine and animal life.

If that were somehow true, why with all the time between those water
events wouldn't there be great displacements in the topography? In
the GC we see soonly layered deposits because there is no erosion thus
allowing for smooth-seamed places between the stratas. You theory
just wouldn't work for that.

There was nothing "convenient" about it. Discovering the origin of
the sands was the result of research. Your dismissive attitude
demonstrates that you are not really interested in "creating
interest".

Do they now? I don't suppose you be able to post a link to a reliable
citation, that's been scientifically peer reviewed and published in a
credible scientific journal? No. Of course not.

Another indication that you either did not read the citation, or are

And supported by evidence you are choosing to ignore, and dismiss out
of hand, because you are not interested in "generating interest".

According to your myth, the flood had plenty of time to mix large
dino's and large mammals, and all of them should have been intermixed
in at least one world wide flood layer, which would also be mixed in
with marine fossils. Where is that layer again? You never seem to be
able to answer that. One is left to wonder why not....

Your "focus" ingores the inconsistancy with the tar pits being a
result of a word wide flood (Which some how managed to not mix any
dino's in with the large mammals) vs a simple trap for anything that
happens to wander into them over time, which is still happening today,
and is observed.

"My theory" is the same theory as mainstream geology's theory. *Your*
objection simply demonstrates your ignorance of real world geology.
Sediment deposited over on top of older sediment *will conform to the
older sedimentary surface until enough sediment has been deposited to
cover the older surface.and fill in any hollows, valleys, cracks, and
bury anything that projects above the average level of the older
sedimentary layer.* The fact you do not know this, again demonstrates
your ignorance.

Bull crap site. They say river systems cannot exist for millions of
years. What utter crap.
BTW, you do know that AIG requires their "researchers" to sign an oath
that pecifically states that all of their findings will conform to a
literal interpretation of Genesis, and if it doesn't, it is ignored.
Does that sound like *anything* they write is objective or scientific
in nature?

The AIG claim here is that the Flood deposited Coconino Formation sand
from the north, while it deposited Navajo Formation sand from the
Appalachians in the east. There's no way a single flood event would
deposit so much sand from one direction and then deposit so much sand
from a different direction. Also the Navajo Formation disappears long
before the Appalachians. There is no way the Flood could carry so
much sand to the Colorado Basin without leaving some between there and
the Appalachians. Also both formations are known fossilized
wind-blown sand dunes, as evidenced by the steep cross-bedding, and
the numerous trace fossils of land animals and plants. The AIG claims
are entirely nonsensical to anyone who actually thought about it with
more that one brain cell.

Floodists simply ignore the fact that the Coconino formation is petrified sand dunes. The sand was transported by the wind. Not by water. I have asked Jester several times to comment, but he keeps talking about pancakes for some strange reason.

Displaced to where? By what? Catastrophic upheavals are your stock in trade. Normal erosion will turn a low, flat plain into a low, flat plain. If you expect otherwise, you have abandoned thinking.

We *do* see erosion features between and among strata: stream channels, mud cracks, sand dunes. Our theory works for everything there. Your theory cannot begin to explain any of it.

Not a word about how the sand formed in the first place, or how it was sorted and cleaned. What losers!

I think most of their tracings are from the general north and ends up
in the south. I would think there would be different time elements
with different materials during such a lengthy flood. I think there
are chalk beds with fossils in the midwest as they allude to, and most
of those probably were made by big water sources...So.....

Why in the world wouldn't water carry sand in a flood??? Some of the
biggest sand collections are not near water. Why? The wind just
conveniently blew it in, and nothing else?

Talking about deposits and transportation... The sands that forms the Coconino sandstone are aeolian deposits. No water, just wind. I know that you know that the existence of such a layer is devastating evidence against the Biblical flood, and that's why you refuse to comment on it. Any attempt to show that the sand might be marine or alluvial desposits will be buried, rapidly, under tons of evidence against it.
> ... And

Your people, like Snelling, simply ignore facts that prove you wrong. And invent other 'facts' when you need them.
My new favorite from Andy A. Snelling:
He knows that what he is saying is not true. And he knows that educated people know that he is lying. But he doesn't care as long as people like you want to be lied to. Actually, you need to be lied to.

Where did all the sediment you claim was distributed by the Flood originally come from? What type of rock was the parent rock? How did it erode? Are you even able to answer questions like that?
