There are actually brine pools on the bottom of the ocean which are extremely volatile to life. Creatures that enter it often die of toxic shock just being close or grazing it's surface. The salt content of the oceans is indeed rising and though it would not entirely mimic the dead sea it would eventually have entire underwater seas of brine much larger than we see today.

We lose hundreds to thousands of animal species every year to extinction. How could evolution ever keep pace with this extinction rate? By this current rate, with about 2 million animal species left on earth, we are looking at every species being lost in just a few thousand more years. How could evolution ever add species to our animal kingdom when suffering losses like this? By necessity there would have needed to be a very unnatural utopian era in earth's past so we could have a net gain of species. And this utopian era would have needed to last for millions and millions of years. If evolutionists insist on this, which would be the only way of explaining our great biodiversity we currently have, then they are in effect arguing for a Garden of Eden scenario as found in the Bible. Only, we of course know God doesn't need millions of years to create life.

I've just looked up the extinction rate and it's in the tens not hundreds of thousands. This rate is way faster than the natural background rate. The estimates are highly variable of course. The whole of the Paleozoic which started with the Cambrian explosion saw more species evolving than going extinct and the development of life on land. This was after the Cambrian explosion that took place in the oceans.

_We lose hundreds to thousands of animal species every year to extinction_ Largely due to human activity. _How could evolution ever keep pace with this extinction rate? By this current rate, with about 2 million animal species left on earth, we are looking at every species being lost in just a few thousand more years. How could evolution ever add species to our animal kingdom when suffering losses like this_ It won;t, unless the causative factor stops. There have been many mass extinctions in the past due to natural disasters. Some life has always survived though. And then that life diversifies and occupies the now empty ecological niches with new species. Mass extinctions are followed by rapid population expansions and diversification. The problem this time is that the natural disaster is us, and we may not stop, so the loss of species may continue and there will be no bounce-back from it. _By necessity there would have needed to be a very unnatural utopian era in earth's past so we could have a net gain of species. And this utopian era would have needed to last for millions and millions of years_ It doesn;t have to be utopian at all. Kust sufficient for living things to survive and propagate. But yes, earth has experienced very long periods of stable conditions that are favourable to life. We are living in one right now - or were, until we decided to screw it up. _then they are in effect arguing for a Garden of Eden scenario as found in the Bible_ No _Only, we of course know God doesn't need millions of years to create life_ Well of course, if you're willing to believe in invisible wizards who can work magic, anything becomes possible.

@johnpritchard8946 Hundreds to thousands. Not hundreds of thousands. We would have everything be extinct in about 20 years at hundreds of thousands. But even if we only lose 1 species each year, this is a rate that evolution cannot keep pace with. As you just proposed, we therefore need some utopian-like era that defies what we've seen throughout the rest of natural history in order to reach the biodiversity we have today. This biodiversity would have needed to have been reached thousands of years ago and not millions. Because how many species could earth have had? Even with just losing 10 species each year, that would mean we would have 650 million species 65 million years ago. 6.5 billion species if it's 100 lost each year which is closer to what we currently see. This would require practically everything born to be a different species from its parents.

The flood should have equalized the salt content when the whole world was covered. The salt that went to land would have formed salt flats when the water evaporated. The water that rained back down would have had an opposite effect diluting the ocean waters, not increasing it.

Having the ocean start out salty *reduces* the amount of time it would take to reach the current salinity, meaning it would be that much younger. As for a global flood, that would wash a lot of minerals into the ocean too, but if you’re willing to believe that, might as well believe all of Genesis, you know?

I am sure hope God has a process in place to balance things. He usually does. It's an interesting subject that together with the study of ocean sediments being too rare could give us some idea what's going on. The deluge itself changed so much, making oceans deeper and other things I do not know about. There seem to be quite a few submerged structures and cities under water, even deep waters. Perhaps the Azores pyramid and the Cuban very deep structures are among the deepest known unstudied places.

Oh please, the mechanisms by which the ocean salt levels remain relatively stable are well understood. Up to four billion tons of salts enter the ocean waters annually, but the same amount gets deposited on the ocean floor as minerals - the oceans are a classic example of homeostasis, where two factors reach a balance point.
@pigzcanfly444
@pigzcanfly444 3 күн бұрын
It's not homeostasis. The word you're looking for is equilibrium and the oceans have not reached a state of stability because the salinity has indeed increased over the time we began tracking. As someone who once was a QM on a submarine I can personally attest to this fact. Salinity deposition and tracking was part of our job and it has a major impact on the buoyancy of vessels especially ones that are submersible. Do not pretend to have understanding of concepts which you clearly have no experience in measuring or dealing.

​@@richardgregory3684prove that the oceans were saltier in the past. That is a claim that no scientist is making and in fact it would only make your entire theory impossible because it requires cellular life that can withstand harsh conditions from the start which would mean a more viable cell and genome type from the very beginning instead of one that is slowly adapting over time to meet the requirements of its environment. Not only that but salt is ionized in many cases and can be extremely volatile just to biochemical components in general in this state. This would not preserve but rather cause serious degradation of the building blocks needed wven to start life in at all. I would suggest that you actually try looking into these issues instead of promoting ad hoc responses due to a desire not to accept well known facts like the salinity of the oceans is rising and not in any state of flux.

The ages of fathers at the births of sons are given in Genesis. We can add the years from Adam to Abraham and we get 2008 years. Thats 6008 years of history roughly.

We both agree on that, yes? The problem is, there's no reference to the amount of time that passes from the end of Verse 2 to the beginning of Verse 3. Conditions might have stayed like that for millions - billions - of years, we simply have no way to know. This is the problem, Archbishop Ussher was able to calculate how long the generations took to work through, that's fine, but he didn't know how long the planet was in existence before God started creating life on it. Not that it makes any difference, because the age of the Earth has absolutely nothing to do with how we find Salvation; if it did Jesus would have talked about it. So really, sir, if you want to believe the Earth is six thousand... ten thousand... or any other age you wish, more power to you, because in the end it's just a meaningless distraction that Christians really shouldn't argue over.

and the firmament in the sky points to a flat earth with a dome over it

That is not the biblical claim at all. The "firmament" is a bad translation of the Hebrew word for the expanse of the sky, "raqiya". Nothing says that the earth is flat, all societies in antiquity knew of a spherical earth..

And on the second day Yah made one thing, His firmament over the Earth that separates the waters above from the waters below. On the fourth day He created the sun, moon and stars and set them within His firmament. We do not live on a spinning ball in endless space.

The first earth came to be when Dâyuni'sï, the little water beetle, came down from the sky world (Gälûñ'lätï) to see what was below the water. He paddled over the surface of the water, but found no place to rest. He dived to the bottom of the water and brought up some soft mud. This mud expanded in every direction and became the earth. The other spirits in Gälûñ'lätï were eager to come down to the new earth. Firstly, birds were sent to see if the mud was dry. The buzzard was sent ahead to make preparations for the others, but the earth was still soft. When he grew tired, his wings dipped very low and brushed the soft mud, forming mountains and valleys in the flat ground. When the earth was finally dry, all of the animals came down from the sky.

When are you going to get real scientists to ask the questions and critique the answers? You want us to believe the Earth is 6000 years old based on a book that claims Penguins and Echidnas walked to an Ark in a desert. Lol, riiiight.

@@globalcoupledances gotcha…something that has taken me my whole life to realize is “science” is the biggest religion of all. These scientists are made to jump through hoops in order to keep their grants, funding, etc. so I don’t just blindly follow “science” any longer. Sure, there are definitely very concrete areas of science such as computers and chemistry that can be proven or disproven with math…when you start to lump the more abstract areas like geology or gender studies in with those and take what they tell you as complete and infallible truths, well that’s when you become a fool. And I know you’re just going to say well you’re blindly following your “religion”…and this is where mine or your relationship with Jesus comes in. He’s the only one that can help you with that.

@@unclematt3134 can you get 100% of all the geologists to agree that carbon dating is 100% accurate? Not all scientists will blindly 100% agree on most things becasue as you know there is alot of theory involved correct? Humans are not perfect,never will be and thus science was created to help understand the world around us but we will never know everything so your needing an explanation of "ancient rocks" is based on your belief that radiocarbon dating is 100% accurate when it is not and is certainly open for debate because it was created by man.
