Hi CTD,

Still no replies to any of the questions above?

You still have not explained what you believe the "proper creation science theory" to be. It shouldn't be hard. Are you a disciple of Henry Morris? Or do you believe in your own version, or what? And where does the flood layer appear in the geological record?

One of your links about Baumgardner said this:

This, Baumgardner says, was the flood on which Noah sailed, the water covering the mountains and destroying "every living substance . . . which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle." Then, after 150 days (Genesis 7:24), the bubble retreated with equal speed into the Earth, and the continents began re-emerging above the water, sending the runoff back to the oceans at around 100 miles an hour. (A very fast river with a huge erosion capacity runs at only about 10 miles an hour.)

Baumgardner says that this runoff would have been sufficient to create the Grand Canyon and other massive geologic features and to deposit the various sedimentary layers in about one week. The science Baumgardner uses to account for these extraordinary happenings is a sort of niche physics called runaway subduction.


Looks to me like he's claiming that the flood carved the Grand Canyon. I'm not sure how the flood would carve the Grand Canyon at the same time as it was creating the layers from which it was carved though.

You also appear to have missed the bit in my last post where I explained the major flaw in his runaway subduction model. I think CTD's m.o. has become plain to see here: ignore everything that's inconvenient.

For example, you appear to have ignored all the evidence presented here for when the Grand Canyon actually was formed. Did you read about cosmogenic dating? It's a way we can tell how long rock or ice has been exposed to the sun's rays. It's one way we know that most parts of the Grand Canyon were eroded millions of years ago. You might want to go back and re-read some of the posts here so that you do not continue to indicate a lack of awareness of the evidence that's been put forward.
