You'll find yourself nodding you head quite a bit -- and here's the important thing; The entire book is based on SCIENCE.Chapter 14 - Effects of the Flood expounds on the subject extremely well, using plausible scientific theory and scenarios. It dovetails with Chapter 4 - The Age of the Earth (Why the Earth is not millions of years old) along with Chapter 6 (Inaccurate Dating Methods.)
Let's face it -- most of us at one time or another never altogether really bought those 600-900 year old ages, but never took into account the possibility of an entirely different planet with altogether different material "laws" that changed the entire pre-Flood "laws" of nature.
It’s funny because many biologists say that the humans are “pre-keyed to live perpetually but for those darn “telomeres” that act like clocks winding down making us susceptible to aging, weakness, and illness finally death! An unfortunate effect of sin upon mankind. Death is a kindness even for the righteous who would other wise live forever with the multiplying knowledge of continued sin and degradation in our sinful flesh with no way to ultimately die and receive the glorified resurrected bodies that know no sorrow, no sin, and no suffering.
