Exploding Fish From The Green River Formation in the USA  Argue Against the Uniformitarian Concept of Varves Being Annual Spring/Fall Deposition of Strata

2/27/2019

0 Comments

Regarding the Green River Formation in Midwestern USA,Dr Whitmore (geologist) said "In my study, I found many examples of exploded fish in the Fossil Basin. A fish cannot explode and scatter its scales if it is already buried in sediment. Burial must come after the explosion. Fish taphonomy is additional evidence  that suggests the laminations of Fossil Basin cannot be annual varves. Sedimentation at these rates is much too slow to explain the exceptional fish preservation. Based on fish taphonomy, the laminations must represent shorter periods of time."
Journal of Creation 20(1), pgs 55-63, 2006. 
 
JGL Comment: Some geologists had been attempting to construct a 6.5 million year deposition for the Green River Formation based on annual varve formation, but the above observations and other data argue against that view..

​See links for comments and differing opinions as to whether the formation occurred during the Flood (M Oard) or Post-Flood (J. Whitmore). But both agree the sedimentation of the GRF did not take millions of years.

Throughout history even to the Roman Catacomb art Noah and the Flood have been portrayed. As well, flood stories are known throughout the continents and ages. Some have consider it a fable but there are many reasons to consider it a true narrative account. See Dissertation section and book section on this website. Also, links below to buy online.

Erratic Rain and Rainbow Post Flood

2/23/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
Before the Flood a mist rose up from the earth and watered it. Post Flood water comes by rain (and rivers) to water the ground. But the rain is intermittent or overwhelming or not at all in various parts of the earth. This reflects the corruption of the earth post Fall of Mankind. The rainbow is a symbol that God will no longer Flood the earth with water.
(See these references but please read in context of Bible chapters. Also, see Christian Theology section on this website.)

Gen 2:6..."But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground... (pre-Flood)
Gen 3:17 ...
hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;..
Gen 9:13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh." KJV

Lack of Evolution in Fruit Flies

2/21/2019

0 Comments

 
In the Acts and Facts article titled Are People and Fruit Flies Related? released 1/31/19 Frank Sherman has the summary:
"For decades scientists have bombarded fruit flies with X-rays to increases their mutation rates.
Researchers wanted to observe evolution in action, but mutations showed genetic damage instead.
Evolutionists now claim fruit flies and humans are related because they share common genes.(but)
This indicates a common Creator, not a common ancestor."
He goes on to talk about the deleterious effect of mutations in development genes which would, of necessity, be involved in any real evolutionary process. See link below.
Evolution does not work-it is a religio-philosophical belief into which the limited observations of science are placed. See 2nd link.
