Really than how come that "Massive Universal" flood didn't also pile dinosaur (or any other) bones in the Adirondack Mountains in New York?

There are compelling reasons for the lack of new fossils in old mountains, at least for people who assume that some mountains are indeed much, much older than some others. People who advocate "alternative science" that discards any meaningful explanation of such things don't know or care what they're throwing away.

Flood Geology typically ignores questions for which its answers are arbitrary and whimsical. "Because the dino and mammal fossils got piled up elsewhere, that's why!"

I hate that about all quack science, not just Flood Geology. People who push theories that the pyramids were erected by space aliens in 10,000 BC or whatever have no idea how much good Egyptology they're trying to discard.

Yeah, I don't know how you do it posting here all the time, I can only post a couple at a time and then I have to go elsewhere before I lose my patience and end up getting banned.

But the lack of fossils in the Adirondacks doesn't make sense in terms of Noah's Flood because while there is no fossils in the Adirondacks, The valleys (Lake Champlain, Hudson, St. Lawarence)around them which are only about 20 feet to 150 feet above sea level do contain them. So why would animals sit around up to 40 days in a valley being flooded when they have 1,000 - 5,000+ foot mountains right in front of them. Plus then as now I assume there were plants on the mountains so where are the plant fossils? And ... Oh nevermind, It's just mindboggling what people choose to believe
