[@grawss]

After some research it actually looks viable! It's funny that most science seems to believe carbon-14 cannot be created through alpha decay but I could see it, and I could even see their entire theory on how c-14 is created in the atmosphere being wrong. Alphas have the extra proton, which is ejected upon the creation of c-14. That said, in the same rabbit hole I found a lot of issues; mainly that if small environmental effects like that can contaminate the dating methods, none can be trusted. If radioactive material can be created through multiple different avenues, then it can also be degraded. Throw enough energy at the earth and you could rapidly create or degrade anything.

Dr. Walker, you didn't mention C14 in coal.

From our article, 'How carbon dating works' ( creation.com/how-carbon-dating-works ) "Carbon dating has also been applied to coal, from ‘20-million-year-old’ Miocene coal to ‘300-million-year-old’ Pennsylvanian coal. Every coal sample contained carbon-14. They even contained approximately the same amount of carbon-14. There is no way to physically contaminate all the coal in the world with carbon-14. The evidence is that coal is young, because there should not be any carbon-14 left in anything that that is claimed to be millions of years in age."

I believe the super high volcanic mountains we see today were created during the flood. Think about it logically. The 'fountains of the deep' opened up and massive volcanic activity was happening at the same time, the rapidly cooling lava would have stacked in one spot and made an underwater mound which, with continued volcanic activity would have made the mound 'snowball' and get bigger and bigger and form an underwater mountain which would have been exposed when the water receded, leaving a mountain. The slow collision of continents doesn't seem enough to create such high mountain ranges. Not to mention, most volcanic mountains, when erupting out of water do not get taller, maybe thicker and more rounded but not taller. They actually fragment and break apart and sometimes even explode like Mt. Saint Helens, leaving the remaining mountain much smaller. The only way such huge mountains could be formed quickly in my opinion, is to be from immense volcanic activity during a time of water covering the earth. I'm not a geologist or a vulcanologist so I cannot say it's a 100% certainty but it seems more consistent with the young earth/rapid formation timeline.

Not because of any empirical evidence, but because the Lord has changed my life so drastically for the better and I see His works everyday, not just in my life but in those around me. More and more evidence of Biblical events is being found everyday and scientists still can't figure out how evolution could even start because the cell parts needed for division and eventual merging are not able to be made before the cell decays and dies. Life cannot come from non life and something cannot come from nothing, it's impossible and unobservable, therefore scientifically impossible to replicate or even observe. As far as geology, there is way more evidence for a young earth and a global flood than there is of anything else, even in core samples. Layers that science says were laid down over thousands of years have no sign of biological growth in between, which would have occurred between the layers if they were laid down over a long period. It's more likely that they were laid down quickly all at once which would explain the lack of biological material between the layers. There are many other examples of inconsistencies in scientific explanation, like how rock layers can be bent without breaking if they were laid down over long periods of time, more likely mud was laid down and bent while still soft, then turned into sedimentary stone after being bent. Anyways, I don't want to 'convince' you of anything, you have to come to faith on your own terms, if at all.

@@freebanking coal is formed when materials containing carbon decay under pressure. It contains rock and other sediment plus many volatile chemical compounds. Charcoal is formed when materials containing carbon are heated/burned until all of the volatile chemical compounds are burned off. Charcoal does not have to be under pressure to form.

The Bible also says that there was violent volcanic activity and upheaval of the ocean floors. It wasn't just a bunch of rain. It changed the geology of the earth completely.

The flood would have consisted of multiple tsunamis going in and out as the land was raising or falling. This could easily explain why different layers contain fossils from different areas or biomes.

More UTTER NONSENSE and impossible explanations. You simply could not have had enough vegetation on the surface to have formed the coal seems we see today - it took generations of plants over hundreds of years, if not thousands to form the deep peat bogs and swamps that eventually formed coal. Chalk is the same, as is lime stone.

[@rs7349]

This proves that some scientists are just jokers. To forget that it takes millions of years for the dead vegetation to reach those high temperatures, because that only happens in the deep layers of the earth and where the pressure is high enough. Coal found on the surface, is even older.The geological movement of the earth's layers due to tectonics pushes the aerth layers up. This is how mountains form and ancient layers are exposed
