“Whales live in the ocean. They would not have been killed by a food. When the waters receded, the whaleswhich were floating in the waterwould have receded along with the water.”
The area they were in might have been deep enough but their escape routes might have become too shallow when the waters retreated. It’s like how some sea life gets caught in little pools in the rocks when the tide goes out, only on a larger scale.

All the water being suddenly put on the earth would have caused all kinds of problems. Some parts of the crust would have sunk and some parts would have risen. This would have happened very quickly and all over the place. The whales got stuck.

PETA has demanded that the highway project be canceled and a Whale Memorial be erected with the surrounding12 million square miles be set aside for the study of the whale’s culture.

Don't worry, some anti-creationist will come up with some "rescuing device" like the "Oort cloud" to explain how this could happen without validating a biblical historical account. Yeah, the only possible explanation is a global flood.
Only a global flood would line up dead whales neatly in a row.
All other explanations are satanic.
Spoken like a "actual" scientist.

Makes sense...whales not being able to survive a flood.

If only Paul Watson and the Sea Shepherds existed between 2 and 7 million years ago.
To: Charles Henrickson
How about this. Maybe that was a shoreline at one time and that’s where the whales beached themselves. It’s not like it never happened before.

Gee, I guess the scientists don’t have all the answers!
To: Sacajaweau
Have they tested the ground for traces of Kool-Aid?
Obviously the research is still in an early stage since they haven't managed to blame the whales' deaths on George W. Bush or global warming...yet.

Is there anything that enhances the flavor of food quite like bacon and ranch dressing?Chocolate?

“as if to suggest that the whales all died at once, possibly during some cataclysmic tragedy”, Like a Worldwide FLOOD! Or GLOBAL WARMING!
Whales die wholesale: Fact of nature. Just because we don't know a mundane reason, doesn't mean we have to clutch at fantastic ones.

As if these guys haven’t seen that sort of thing before. This story strengthens my faith. I love seeing God’s word validated and watching the fools grasp at straws.

So, if the Earth had a fever (algore) and the sea levels rose, this might have been under water?
Algore was right all along...except the “man made global warming” part. What a bunch of maroons!

I wonder if this might mean that ocean levels were higher...perhaps *much* higher...then than they are today?
