In this much-requested video, Del Tackett follows paleontologist Kurt Wise into the air shaft of an old coal mine in the Pocket Wilderness (Tennessee) where they discuss the origin of coal. Dr. Wise explains how the conventional model of coal formation in swamps is insufficient for explaining the coal beds we actually see. He talks about research done by Steve Austin in terms of floating log mats.
Dr. Wise earned his BA in geology from the University of Chicago, and his MA and PhD degrees in paleontology from Harvard University. He founded and directed the Center for Origins Research at Bryan College and taught biology there for 17 years. He then led the Center for Theology and Science at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary for 3 years, before founding and directing the Center for Creation Research and teaching biology at Truett McConnell University for the last 7 years.
His fieldwork has included research in early Flood rocks in the Death Valley region, late Flood rocks in Wyoming, and post-Flood caves in Tennessee.

I’m an underground miner in the Midwest and Ive wandered for over a decade how the coal was made. Iv seen lot of things that led me to the conclusion that hydrolics “water” had to have had a big part in it and trees as well. The way the seems lay and rise up and down looked like water had moved over what was once the ground one would have stood on. Ive seen shells,trees that are so long laying rite on top of the coal in the shell and fossilized in perfect detail. Once in a while one would line up with an entry and a couple inches of stack rock would fall exposing them and it would expose its self for many brakes. On the main west travel road on 100 foot pillars 120 foot centers we had one exposed for over 8 brakes. That’s 960 feet of tree in perfect detail and we never saw a single branch or the stump nor did it narrow. That was the longest but seen many. We also had a fern leaf in an intersection on a main that measured 38 feet across. Scientist came to visit our mine more than once and we were told that it was an ancient rain forest. The things the man said in this video makes more sense than anything Ive ever heard about coal. I’d say he’s dead on.

@@arussell-bishop4438 A couple things I know for sure about oil is that dead dinosaurs didn’t make the oil we have like the schools teach us lol there would have had to been 9 trillion or them. Secondly is that oil was not always considered a fossil fuel.. for a long long time it was seen to be a renewable resource and no one disagreed with that. It wasn’t untill the mid 1890’s when one of the Rockefeller’s attended the Geneva convention along with 2 scientist on his payroll that oil was deemed a fossil fuel. He convinced everyone that oil had to regulated and there for the cost must go up and he profited from this more than anyone else. I’m not saying that it is or isn’t a fossil fuel but it seems that at the rate we burn in worldwide that we would be out by now.

I grew up for 18 years living right next to a brickworks quarry and could clearly see the layers of coal, shales, sandstone etc. The coal outcropped so close to surface that last year builders putting houses on field adjacent the quarry was forced to have excavators dig down 4 feet to thoroughly mix the coal and shale to forestall any possibility of a garden fire causing and underground fire scenario like in Centralia. I once calculated that before the Flood there was probably 30 trillion large trees on Earth and at say a 15% ratio of organic material to be converted into methane, oil and coal it would give perhaps 1.5 TRILLION TONS of oil and coal. But the figure would be far higher when all the grasses, crops, bushes, fallen leaves, humus is added and converted to oil and coal. Then add in all the drowned humans, dinosaurs, creatures, birds, fish, insects and the total mass of gas, oil and coal under our feet is unimaginable for most people but it is certainly sufficient to keep us warm and fuelled for hundreds more years! No wonder GOD intends to burn up this tired Earth and make a new one after Judgment Day! My calculations are in my book: 'A Brief History of Time #2 by R White' available from Amazon.

[@appaloosa42]

Well, the plant life became coal but it was the ‘people’ and animals that were digested by the masses of floating bacteria and microscopic organisms that later fell to the ocean/ continental floor and became oil & gas.

Now now, facts ruin their narrative. Like the fact that the whole 'Noah's flood' story is just a rewrite of the even more ancient Epic of Gilgamesh, which is another fictional tale about gods wiping out humans via flood, but one human family and their farmhands (and the local animals) survive the efforts of the gods who intended to completely kill the human race.

[@morefiction3264]

@@avi8r66 Well, the flood would have predated the stories but it's interesting that the story seems to be so universal almost as though it's a cultural memory dating back to a set of common ancestors who were a very small group of survivors.

[@avi8r66]

@@morefiction3264 Flooding was a common cause of large scale destruction in those days. Farming required water, as do people. When they learned to pull fish from the sea they also built near salt water shore lines. But in all these locations flooding was a known risk and floods tended to be the most destructive thing they knew, entire villages would be lost, sometimes in the dead of night. So the flood was the scary monster of the era. Genesis' version of the flood myth is a rewrite of the epic of gilgamesh, written about 2,000 years before the genesis version was written. It was rewritten around a single god vs many, and since it was just 1 god he had no other gods to betray so he leaked the story to the survivor himself. And just because it was repeated doesn't make it accurate. Even today lots of purely fictional stories are repeated and rewritten. Nothing new there. Cultural stories are certainly a thing, but this doesn't make them factual in their content. Lots of copies, lots of manuscripts, lots of devoted followers, none of these things establish the truth of the story, just the popularity. And as we can all see even today, fiction is far more appealing than fact.

We have musselband coal where you can see a layer of mussels this is over 700 metres underground. How did that happen? Before Yahweh"s creation that we see today the earth went into turmoil where the plates must have all moved in total destruction and confusion. We know Yahweh is not the author of confusion, something must have "rebelled" or caused this catastrophe to end this prehistoric world. The creation in Genesis is the reforming of our world by the hand of Yahweh for man's dominion.

That is absolutely incredible. And to think it's also the best source for ultra clean and cheap natural gas. And literally unlimited supply of it lol all that is needed is water under pressure and a period of time and BAM you have natural gas. One example of this is in north east Wyoming. Thousands of shallow depth water wells drilled down to the coal seam. Pump out the water and the gas flows like crazy. It's drawn out by pumping stations and then pushed to a refinery. Whenever a well stops producing it is turned off and then massive amounts of water is pumped into the well and capped off. A cycle that is basically limitless. And a source of energy that is almost 100% pollution free. And yet there is still huge amount of opposition to it's production and use. Kinda proves that there is a major agenda against real environmental reform. But I digress lol

So why fact check one way when not being able to fact check your own way? Hypocritical yes.....People as you want everyone to conform to your way or the highway. And just as the Bible states--- Romans 1;18- 18 For God’s wrath is being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who are suppressing the truth in an unrighteous way, 19 because what may be known about God is clearly evident among them, for God made it clear to them. 20 For his invisible qualities are clearly seen from the world’s creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship, so that they are inexcusable. 21 For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God nor did they thank him, but they became empty-headed in their reasonings and their senseless hearts became darkened. 22 Although claiming they were wise, they became foolish 23 and turned the glory of the incorruptible God into something like the image of corruptible man and birds and four-footed creatures and reptiles. 24 Therefore, God, in keeping with the desires of their hearts, gave them up to uncleanness, so that their bodies might be dishonored among them. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for the lie and venerated and rendered sacred service to the creation rather than the Creator, who is praised forever. Amen. 26 That is why God gave them over to disgraceful sexual passion, for their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; 27 likewise also the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full penalty, which was due for their error. 28 Just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a disapproved mental state, to do the things not fitting. 29 And they were filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and badness, being full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice, being whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, schemers of what is harmful, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, false to agreements, having no natural affection, and merciless. 32 Although these know full well the righteous decree of God-that those practicing such things are deserving of death -they not only keep on doing them but also approve of those practicing them.

God has three attributes Omniscient - all knowing. Omnipotent - all powerful. Omnipresent - present in all places all the time. If you have been born again, not of flesh and blood, but of God's Holy spirit, then you will know that because God is omniscient, He wrote your name down in the Lamb's Book of Life way back in eternity past, before anything material was ever created, before Angels and Spirits were ever created. Now in one of the beginnings Created God the Heavens and the Earth. And the Earth, she had become formless and void. And Spirit God went out morning/suffering/brooding over the faces of the earth because it was in turmoil. Now we know that in Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14, Satan rebelled against God and was cast down to the earth and the earth was catastrophically destroyed, thats why we have an abundance of fossil fuels and fossalised remains of animals, fish and plants that existed before Lucifer rebelled. We know from Genesis chapter one, that God restored the earth over a period of six days, placing Adam in the Eden which is a throne room. Now God created the heavens and Earth a long time ago, but He created Man about six to ten thousand years ago. According to the Septugent when Jesus was born, that was about the eight thousandth year since God made Man in His Image. The Jews believed the Messiah would come in the end of seven thousand years and rule in the eighth thousandth year. The Jews had different chronological times to those who today push the young earth theory. Then we had Augustine and the founders of Christiandom (not Christianity), who propogated their ideas of replacement theology where Christiandom replaces Israel. (Which is not in accordance with the Abrahamic and Davidic covenants). Augustine was a great student of Plato, he Platonised the interpretation of the Bible. If you can't understand these things now, stick them under your hat and take them out later. The Bible says that heaven is directly up above the north pole and that hell or hades or sheol is down under the earth. According to the Bible there are three Heavens, (Mohammed has seven). Above the earth we have the atmosphe with clouds, wind and oxygen, and that's the first heaven and above that we have all the galaxies with all the space between them, called the cosmos, and that's the second heaven. The Bible in Genesis 1 says when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth had a bubble around it (uplifted waters), there really was an ocean in the sky surrounding the earth, protecing Earth from the suns rays. The Earth used to be all earth with a bubble of water surroundig it. Shortly after the great flood in the days of Peleg, God devided the land because had not gone out and multiplied, but instead built a tower way up into the sky and were worshiping pagan gods, Nimrod and his mother (the first madonna). The Bible says you go to the north part of the Earth and assend straigh up to the third heaven and thats where God is. Now the Bible says in Genesis 3:15 that God is going to send His son, the seed of a woman. Not one drop of blood from the mother goes into the child (research). Now the Hebrew Bible says that God formed man from the same element that He formed the Earth. God didn't make man from the Earth, man is a primary creation, not a secondary creation. Eve is a secondary creation, because she was made from the bone's of Adam's bone's and the fleshes of Adam's fleshes, taken from all of Adams sides. Top side, bottom side, front side, back side, left side and right side.

Hi Steve, i used to work down a coal mine in England, the coal seam was 5ft to 10ft thick and there was coal seams at 612 meters. 912 meters and 1062 meters down with mostly lime stone and shale in between ! can you please explain this as in regards to a world wide flood ? there were many fern type leaf fossils either side of the coal seams too !

[@brianj4543]

Gaz we see that here in queensland also and spread over huge distances (1500km) and typically it is in 3 layers. The highest of these in elevation is typically low grade anthrocite which is almost charcoal like when compared to the hard coking coal layers down lower. It has a distinct line usually further inland, then there is a mored dense midde layer which is also the most abundant and it is not far above the bottom layer. Looking at where they are and how they look the best theory I can come up with is 1 layer was the initial inrush as water pushed trees into an area & that was then covered with material as the water receded & then the next two were receding layers 1 being the heavy shoreline material & the other being the deposition of bark from the log matts. It is also interesting to fly over these areas and note how the hilss and valley reflect how sand moves with the tides, & when you think how soft these hills were post flood it fits well. i dont see long term erosion as these area now are so dry with almost no water flows

[@hacerclic1020]

Yeah, I don't think they ever respond to comments here. I'm not an expert, so take this with a grain of salt, but the standard flood scenario has the earth covered with water and multiple waves of different types of material (imagine continent-wide tsunamis of mud or organic matter) being deposited in layers at different times as massive flood currents circulate around the earth. I would speculate that in your example, a layer of organic material was deposited then covered with a wave of sediment, then another layer of organic material followed by another wave of sediment, and so forth. There was also a lot of post-flood activity as the waters subsided.

You choose." LOL

[@sigisoltau6073]

Because there's no evidence for a flood, more like against it. There's so much I'm not going to list all here. For one there are trees older than the flood. There's a stand of trees in the United States which has a root system over 30,000 years old. These trees can't stand being in water for long, especially if it's salty or brackish. Also there are rock layers that were deposited in deserts. These layers were deposited in an environment like the sand seas found in the Sahara, Namib in Saudi Arabia. How did these layers form when the whole earth was underwater? Then there's evidence in the universe. There alone is a crap load of evidence against the flood and that the universe is old.

I know of a blind spot in the education of geologists. They tell us that our planet Earth has the most to fear from an asteroid impact or volcano eruptions. But when we look at the many horizontal layers that we find everywhere on our planet, we clearly see the effect of a repeating cataclysm. These disasters are mentioned in ancient books like the Mahabharata from India and the Popol Vuh from the Maya but also in the Bible. They tell us about a cycle of seven disasters that separate the world eras. Certainly, regularly recurring global disasters cannot be caused by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions. The only possible cause is another celestial body, a planet, orbiting our sun in an eccentric orbit. Then it is close to the sun for a short period and after the crossing at a very high speed it disappears into the universe for a long time. These disasters cause a huge tidal wave of seawater that washes over land "above the highest mountains." At the end it covers the earth with a layer of wet mud, a mixture of sand, clay, lime, fossils of marine and terrestrial animals and small and larger meteorites. Forests that existed are flattened and because of the pressure from the layers on top the wood is changed into coal. These disasters also create a cycle of civilizations. To learn much more about the recurring flood cycle, the re-creation of civilizations and its chronology and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: invisible nibiru 9
