LoL... good point(s)..
On a uniformly-inundated surface with no constraint on the direction(s) of drainage? Bravo Sierra.
If you are referring to the Flood, you have it backward. Water didn't run "on", it ran "OFF".
Provide a link to a video of that experiment.
Never happened.

If the Flood covered the whole earth, and then receded, Why is the Grand Canyon essentially unique?
Then crawl back into your hole.
Thank You
No, actually you’re right! they pulled it out of thin air. Then proceeded to “look” for ways to support it.
They pick the “results” they want from many samples.
None of the radiometric methods “check” themselves nor cross checked with other isotropic samples.
What if the earth is 4 billion years old? Does that disprove the Bible? Is this question an existential threat to your faith?
I’ll provide U with consideration for your ignorance, but nothing else.
What ran was a huge basin of trapped water from the “flood” released by some large siesmic activity. Sorry that your cognition is so limited - Shame!
It isn't , and does not have to be.
consider the rate sun is shrinking (reversed puts surface of sun too close to earth to support life).
Also, the moon's revolution decay (ditto)
Earth's rotation, is slowing down...(reverse . would have continents formed differently)
I am being simplistic, but you get my drift (?)
Does your faith have to have billions of years???
Please note there is know way to know exact age. But we don't need a vast amount of time.
Thanks for your question
good job
Ask yourself; can God create it all in six days??
He either can or can’t, That is the REAL question of faith.
the Hebrews believed he did, and Christ confirmed it.
Thanks
Why thank me? You ignored my question.
There is a card game called “POO”.
It is about the this very act.
Ha
At Mount Saint Helens there is a miniature “Grand Canyon”. It was cut in a short period from the melting snow.
It size is supendous, maybe a third of Grand Canyon.
“...
An explosive eruption of Mount St. Helens on March 19, 1982, melted a thick snowpack in the crater creating a destructive sheetlike flood and mudflow which downcut the rockslide and pyroclastic flow deposits north of the volcano. The largest steam explosion pit (shown in Figure 3 as it was previous to March 19) overflowed its west rim and cut a deep ravine into the 1980 pumice deposits to the west (Waitt et al. 1983). The flow formed anastomosing channels over much of the hummocky rockslide debris allowing cataracts to erode headward and established for the first time since 1980 a dendritic integration of the North Fork Toutle drainage. Erosion has occurred intermittently with most of the established drainage lines being formed in March 1982....”
appreciate your points
Thanks
“...Why thank me? You ignored my question...”
Why???? I like questions.
again, No, it is absolutely NO threat. IT isn’t , and does not have to be, i.e. “old”
Falsehoods and lies are no threat to Faith.
Science (true, factual) is no threat either
So Again, Thanks!!!!
But we don’t need a vast amount of time.
We seem to forget that the word vast is only relevant in the human perspective. God exists before time, after time, and in every instance of time. A billion years is nothing to God. We don’t need to be afraid of deep time any more than we need to fear deep space.
Not a bad response but he could learn from newt. His main thrust should be to deflect these divisive questions that are designed to split the base. He can also turn it around on the questioner and bring out in the open what their agenda is
Thanks.
Thanks.
I would like to know how “deep” “space” really is!!
....uhmmmmm
What does your interpretation of Genesis say about it?
I would like to know how deep space really is!!
Yes, I am sceptical of any scientic theory.
In this physical (corporal) world, material “things” have to exist in space-time, “as we know it”.
So when God created (bara) he did so in what we know as “space”. How deep is it??? There are theories of space curvature, we may never know.
We are so limited in our understanding. It was not all “told” to us, but what we discover only makes HIS work the more Glorious...Don’t you Think so????
Thanks Again!!
Someone commented on a Voyager thread that they wondered if it would get so far out then bump into a wall with stars painted on it...
