Geologist Andrew Snelling explains how the scale of geologic processes, such as volcanic eruptions, was much larger in the past than is observed in the present. He then shows how Catastrophic Plate Tectonics helps explain the geologic processes that caused the global Flood.
Dr. Snelling completed a BS in applied geology at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, graduating with first-class honors in 1975. His PhD in geology was awarded in 1982 by The University of Sydney for his research thesis titled “A Geochemical Study of the Koongarra Uranium Deposit, Northern Territory, Australia.” Dr. Snelling worked for six years in the exploration and mining industries in Tasmania, New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, and the Northern Territory, variously as a field, mine, and research geologist. For over ten years, Dr. Snelling was a research consultant to the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization for an international collaborative research project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy which involved university and government research scientists from the USA, UK, Australia, Japan, Korea, Sweden, Austria and Belgium. He is currently Director of Research for Answers in Genesis.

@@AyeTeeJay91 If catastrophic plate tectonics were in any way involved with the supposed flood of Noah, explain how any sedimentary layers laid down in that event could remain stable and clearly divided. The kind of tectonic movement proposed here means massive upheavals caused by huge volumes of water- superheated mind you, colliding in tsunamis of impossible proportions. The vortexes created could leave no recently laid (nor likely any older layers too) intact. There should be zero dry layers,zero clear sedimentary layers, zero aerial layers, zero stable varve laminae. The collisions would have been, must have been massive. The atmosphere would have superheated. All in a single year. Spread over a decade it still would have been such that no geo layers like the ones we do have would be anywhere for that period.

I watch these videos and remember the questions I have had throughout my life while eagerly internalizing conventional earth science, evolution, anthropology, history, astronomy, etc. Many things just sounded improbable but I silently swallowed what I was fed because everybody else seemed to. Catastrophic earth history is far more palpable than 5 billion year earth history. Rediscovering my faith has led to a catastrophic paradigm shift in my thinking about everything. I'm glad that I have always been interested in and followed science and history as an amateur because I'm not just blindly believing, but finally making an informed decision, and realizing we've been fooled. Bottom line, a young earth kills evolution and they just can't allow that. If the news is fake, imagine the history.

@@paulschwarz406 Hi. Did you ever wonder why folk like you are not more common? I mean folk who take things literally and without question. Well, one reason is that most people also questioned science when they were kids but they found its answers made more sense than the stories they had previously accepted from grownups that they quite naturally trusted - parents and pastors. Stories like Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, but also stories like virgins giving birth. "Answers" like "Ah, but with God all things are possible" or "You'll understand when you are older" are seen by most folk as not being answers.. Most folk grow up and start thinking for themselves. Most people read the Suffering Servant and A Virgin will conceive sections of Isaiah and look at the context. Isaiah is addressing an appeal from a worried King Ahaz and reassures him that in a few years time the problem with his neighbors will have vanished. The text of Isaiah clearly states that a maiden HAS conceived. It is only in Matthew that we hear she was a virgin and that her pregnancy would be 700 odd years in the future. Isn't that strange? Well not really, not when there are over a dozen other examples of the author of Matthew quote mining the Hebrew scriptures for "prophecies" foretelling Jesus. Oh yes, things are often more complicated than a superficial reading might suggest.

Ginger Ray, Carbon dating has some use but its limit must be understood. Carbon dating is useful for dating some relatively young things no more than a few thousand years. And, it has application for showing relative dating. Importantly, testing has shown ubiquitous, uniform levels of carbon 14 in diamonds, coal, and fossils. This means that those materials are not really millions of years old.

Nicely explained in simple ways. Events can either speed up or slow way down, depending on the right conditions present when such an event occurs. Yet, so many ecologists favor evolution to explain the supposed old age that their testing suggest, which in this video, the gentleman explains why it is unreliable.

In some locations, it's been detected that areas of land had really sunk below the surface never again to see the open air.

Jesus has very little to say about the geologic erosive effects of "the Flood" and plate tectonics. He is much more concerned about the erosive effects of false teachings on the Mind of his Brethren.

Without rocks to judge according to the appearance, all geolgists, be they evolutionists or creationists would be up the old proverbial "Creek" without a paddle! Jesus, as a true prophet, not a scientist, avers, that the 🌎 the whole ball of wax , air, land, water and 🔥 will "cataclysmically", completely disappear and vanish in a flash.

There is a very basic and glaring error in these interpretations. All of the volcanic deposits mentioned at the beginning of this video (ie Deccan Traps and Siberian Traps) are composed of basalt. All eruptions involving basalt are effusive, not explosive. That is, basaltic eruptions are not catastrophic, but this video asserts that they are. This is not controversial and it is taught in introductory geology classes. Basalt is also the main component of oceanic crust, and mid oceanic ridges never experience explosive eruptions. The chemistry of basalt simply does not allow for explosive eruptions. Those only happens when crust containing more volatiles is involved in the equation.

[@zorot3876]

Lisle Tenderfoot - He emphasises the rate and scale of eruptions. You seem to be ignoring this. How can you assume all effusive eruptions are not catastrophic?

[@lisletenderfoot9216]

@michael7dee Thanks for pushing me to define how I use "catastrophic", it's important for this dialogue. The way that I'm using it here is the way in which it seems the guys in the video are, which is quick, and explosively energetic. A literal interpretation of the flood narrative, and what these guys propose necessitates that "catastrophic" contain connotations of quickness. Basalt has a mafic mineral composition, lacking the volatiles to produce explosive eruptions. This is not indoctrination, it is very basic, verifiable geology. The cascade volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest are not basaltic, that's why they undergo explosive eruptions. Those volcanoes have dioritic/andesitic material dewatering deep underneath, which causes partial crust melting and volatile release, which results in explosive eruptions. The flow basalt deposits in the inland PNW predate the current assemblage of cascade volcanoes.

@@lisletenderfoot9216 - There are fine-grained basalt deposits on the surface of every continent. The critical depth requirement for formation of non-vesicular basalt is around 9800 feet of ocean water. Thus, all of those non-vesicular basalt deposits were formed while the surfaces of every continent were under at least 9800 feet of water. Their very existence is empirical evidence of a global flood. The same holds true for lunar maria, which supports the idea that the vast majority of lunar craters are from hydro-volcanic eruptions rather than meteorite impacts.

Your series are amazing ! Love them . I have a question and I would like anyone to help me understand. When you say the seventh day the Sabbath and then say “in our case the Christian Sabbath” what does that mean ? When I read the Bible it says Sabbath , what you mean by Christian Sabbath ? It was changed to Sunday later on ? Can anyone help me when in the Bible does it say it because I want to understand when this change happen. Thanks !

[@emanlabib8204]

there is no any whatsoever declaration of the bible that sabbath changed to sunday, actually it is written & called at some passages as the day of the lord, & there is no clear identification, mainly mentioned in acts & revelation. in the after 100 AD writings like the very first christian book called "didachi" meaning the teaching, is talking about keeping the "day of the lord" but no clear indication either he was talking about sabbath or sunday, but they were talking very clearly about something everyone who believes in jesus knows about, inwhich he doesn't need to identify, like in revelation when god met john study that part. the only thing that i have found regarding to sunday actually was in the 5th century when they say they changed the worship day of the christians into sunday as uniting with other major religion in rome @ that time, which for me i concluded that the day of the lord was actually the sabbath as it is in genesis, jesus didn't say to change it or even the apostles didn't change it, i think the formal churches inherited many things unreviewed, there also another jewish old writtings other than the old testemant talking about sabbath is a day to the emd of the time to be kept by the children of god called book of Enoch. ihope i helped a little to start from somewhere, i was just telling my opinion & conclusion after i was also searching & praying on this subject for 2 or more years. God bless you

[@romanlaw5409]

zibirsky Jesus Christ is our sabbath. The Israelites were burdened under keeping the law so they needed that rest God made for them. But Jesus said he was the God of the sabbath. He reformed the rules to make it that anyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall find true rest that surpasses any rest of flesh a day could give you.

[@emanlabib8204]

then why you sir take a day off? or do you work 7 days a week? & if you take a day off for your fleshly body in a fleshly day then why is it sunday? when it is not anywhere in the bible that anyone changed it. how is it burden when jesus said i am the lord of the sabbath, & that it was made for human.....? Jesus was explaining the giving of the sabbath & also lighing out that the pharisees & hypocrets are abusing the laws of god; the ten commandements & the mosaic law of sacrifice. so it is not meant to burden people as saying love thy neighbore is a burden (it is surely is a burden of love to keep in your heart for others), the burden came from the abuse of the religious leaders judging people by the mosaic law & the 10 commandments while they themselves couldn't commit that's why he was attacking their hipocracy. the sabbath rest of god jesus christ is not meant to break the commandements of god yehwa sir, there is many meanings of sabbath word in the bible than 7th day, especially when paul uses them search about it. he is talking about a rest for us with jesus for now & everyday till the eternity, as a continous feast for us, that's one of the other meanings of the sabbath.

[@emanlabib8204]

Also Jesus came to fulfill the mosaic law by the ultimate & only sacrifice who is him Jesus Christ Son of God, he came to complete not to stop the direct laws written by god which is the 10 commandments.

[@waynebaker542]

@@emanlabib8204 @zibirsky In LExodus, I believe chapter twenty, it says God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh. The Israelis were to rest on the Seventh, this is called the Sabbath. In the New Testament Jesus died on Friday afternoon, rose early Sunday Morning. When Christians changed the Lord's day to Sunday is uncertain. I believe that some non-Christian sources indicates it was in the late first to early second century, that would would be between 70 AD to maybe 130 to 150 AD. A Roman official wrote a letter mentioning the Christians worshipped on the first morning of the week. There seems to be nothing that indicates any official time for the change. In seminary, a Korean classmate held a ministry position in a local Korean church. That church had worship meetings seven days a week!

Thank you sooo much for this video! An excellent presentation and explanation. I still have questions. If all but Noah and his family were destroyed, how do we have the other cultures around the world? My assumption according to the bible narrative, is that they all are offspring of Noah and his family. Is this assumption correct? Also, if only the animals/creatures taken on the ark survived, and the ancestral animals/creatures of all animals/creatures on earth now were literally on the ark, this means that animals such as the kangaroo, koala and platypus for examples, must have been on the ark too. Is this assumption of the bible narrative correct? I find this very hard to believe, and if someone can provide a plausible explanation I would be most grateful. Thank you in advance!

On the first question, the Bible explains the worldwide cultures and 'races' in Genesis chapter 10. There, you can see about 70 family groups that spread out over the earth and multiplied into the cultures we see today.

This provides an excellent description of the geological changes in Earth's history. What needs to be discussed is the cause of these violent changes because it provides a view of our future. Catastrophic events occur on 12,500 year cycle in conjunction with magnetic pole reversals. We are due and the poles movement have increased dramatically over the last couple of decades. As the poles continue to increase in speed we will significant increase in the number and strength of earthquakes and volcanoes as well severe weather. We are quickly approaching the next flood and like the last, most life on Earth will be lost. See Suspicious Observers channel for videos explaining this in detail.

Excellent explanation, and easily understood... Only there is this missing portion - on the second day of creation, "the Lord God separated the waters from the waters, and created a firmament (sky) in the midst thereof"... This explains how there could be rain for "forty days and forty nights" at the time of the flood. Because, originally half of the oceans, half of the seas, and half of all the lakes and rivers were up in the sky, having circumvented the earth ever since creation ! (This way people were protected from the sun's radiation, with the divided waters shielding them from the sun's rays, and were able to live as much as a thousand years or more.)

[@Panazoniac]

This all makes so much sense to me! Except one thing... how did animals end up in the Americas if they’d all been killed in the flood. The only animals in existence would be the ones saved in the ark. How did they get across the Atlantic? Any good theories out there?

[@bigcorky4687]

All the animals had little boats stocked up with their own dietary requirements and sat nav that was set to get them home to a place that was all set up after the flood for them to florish. Panda's were so happy to find bamboo (their staple diet) was growing everywhere when they got back.Polar bears were delighted that the North Pole had froze so quickly for them as were penguins with the south Pole , isn't it all so wonderful 🤣

[@remainhumble6432]

Lots of possibilities...millions of logs floating about, men taking them out as civilisations expanded again, the earth would have continued to change after the flood (land bridges still there), not to account for genetic diversity still present in animals which allowed them to change and adapt to new conditions. Despite catastrophes, genocides, wars, plagues etc human population has increased from 170 millions to 9 billion in 2000 years. So animals moving and expanding quickly is not that far fetched when we look at genetics properly.

East of Ijebarim? Lot walked down that drainage, to Zoar, heading west, on the Egypt trade route, that passed Zoar, from Negeb? About a 20 mile walk... Over night?

Water weighs 62.5 cubic foot. Water weight on the ocean floor holds that section of the crust down. However, there is not water weight on the Earth's continental surfaces. All this and the earth must stay in a spherical shape. Otherwise, the Earth's orbit would wobble out of place like an unbalanced washing machine. As water poured onto the Earth's surface, the water weight would in turn push the crust down. The Earth must remain spherical, so that means the ocean floor had to rise and displaces. The fact that there are 3 to 5 story high lava flows on the northern part of the west coast of America that have a pillow shape to them says they were formed underwater and not like the lava flow across the surface like in the area this was filmed in. The world went through a catastrophic event. I absolutely agree with this video and I'm not a smart man.
