95% of all limestone deposits come from the shells of marine creatures such as coccolithophores, foraminifera, corals, mollusks. When these creatures die their calcium containing exoskeletons sink to the ocean floor as soft sediment. The accumulation is very slow, on the order of just a few cm every 1000 years. Eventually after being buried deeply enough the soft sediment lithifies into hard limestone. Now for the story in this video to be correct: 1. The Flood had to have enough nutrients to cause massive blooms of this marine life, enough to form hundreds of meters of sediment from their shells in one year. 2. Somehow the fresh sediment had to lose all its water content and lithify into hard limestone. 3. More acidic water showed up from somewhere underneath and blasted out these caves in the limestone. 4. The acidic water all drained away. 5. More regular water carrying the remains of Pleistocene mammals then washed the remains along with non-limestone mud depositing into the caves. 6. The remains then fossilized in the non-limestone mud deposits. Anyone want to defend or amend this scenario? 😜😜😜

Amend? Yes! The fossils were dragged into the cave by dinosaurs. They were fluent in English - like the serpent in the Garden of Eden. They wrote the lyrics to "The River". Bruce Springsteen killed them all, to steal the credit for the song. (And that's how they went extinct)

The big question no creationist will touch - how did the Flood manage to deposit 200-300m thick layers of limestone in the first place? Limestone sediment slowly precipitates out of still water, less than 5mm / 1000 years, and is formed from the shells of tiny marine creatures called foraminifera. It *doesn't* form in a flood.

We also have to address the fact that the rock can have many different densities and makeup. Some of these features look like root and trunk channels from ancient trees, from before the clay turned to stone. The floodwaters create pressures that can cause erosion beyond the understanding of these theories. Many of the caves I have been in are eroded fault lines. We can look at the rocks surround Boone Lake and see how quickly the rock with erode, as the lake has only been there for 70 years. The black limestone is wearing away faster than the theories depict. This says the theories need to be updated. Black limestone is extremely hard limestone! I have issues believing the narrative is worth the paper they are written on!

I might imagine that the acidic water is more buoyant and thus at the top of the water flow.

Which is why they also have hand imprints, to measure the age of prospective buyers of alcohol. Nobody would have wanted to be found selling booze to children. A form of age identification.

Quote: "You can almost sense the water flowing up. It doesn't make much sense, going down". Answer: Except perhaps for physics! Water does not run up, in channels. Never once has an example of water running upwards been seen by anybody. Water, when running, follow the laws of physics. Water from the bottom (hydrothermal vents, for example) disperse, as soon as they exit the ground below. (PS. The desperation to come up with something that doesn't contradict the Genesis storyline, is both visible and audible).

Why do YEC leader act like Jews Pharisees says we must keep the 7th day. When the NT teaches that 7th day as not ended. And for the Jews the 7th day was not always 24 hours.

@@VernCrisler I don't have much to do with learned people who explain something because they think it is right. Making up your own theory about everything doesn't seem like a good thing to me. Theologians are the right people to explain Bible texts, they know the origin of the meaning. You also have to be careful about accepting stories from learned people. Take for example Martin Luther, a great reformer, a learned and intelligent man with courage, but he was also a great anti-Semite, given his clear statements about Jews, which were really not based on anything, but were just his own opinion. The same goes for the current Pope Francis, who says that God caused the big bang but cannot do everything and has let evolution take its course and lo and behold, here we are now. Many people also believe what the Pope says. To me this is a very strange statement from a church leader that I have heard, because then everything is based on coincidence. This invalidates Genesis and Jesus has become a random passer-by who just tells something about the sin of people. Scholars from the Vatican who want to prove God with astronomical research and have a radio telescope for that, it is getting crazier. Adding or subtracting something from a Bible text is not wise (Deuteronomy 4:2), then division arises and various churches, as well for interpretations of learned people who think they know it and think that we should think that too.

So, some cave systems are formed via epigenic processes and some are formed by hypogenic processes. It doesn't mean all are hypogene caves. Formation of stalactites and stalagmites depends on dripping water and water doesn't drip upwards! So many caves are obviously epigenic. Vertical entry shafts are often caused by collapse of a section of the cave roof long after the cave beneath was formed. This changes nothing! The very old age of many caves has been well established by reverse paleomagnetism in cave formations. To suggest all caves were formed by hypogenic processes caused by the mythical global flood of Noah is just absolute nonsense! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
