    Yeah! 😂😂 I'm "ball"ing my eyes out right now!

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    But the plant life both of you were talking about was plant life alive at the time of the flood, which would have a certain amount of CO2 required to support it staying alive, no matter how long it had been growing prior to that. I expect you're right, but I haven't seen calculations one way or...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    I agree. I think you are confused about what you were arguing against. @Yorzhik was saying there needed to be more CO2 to support the amount of plant life in existence at the time of the flood.

    Eh? All of the evidence we have of plant life before the flood is from fossils, and it's likely all of that was alive together at the time of the flood.

    Sounds like some of the conversations here at TOL.

    Our Moral God

    There appears to be an element of goodness in the distinction between right and wrong, goodness meaning what is good for the person, The family, the world, mankind, etc. Aborting babies is bad for the babies, but also for the mothers, the fathers, society, the elderly, etc. Murder is bad for...

    It might work in models with an integrated dash cam.

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    My point was that not everything that could be considered a canopy would end up looking like Saturn's rings. Another thought is that the rain forest treetops are considered a canopy, but air and water can go through it. That would be similar to a net-work or lattice idea for the windows of heaven.

    We currently have a canopy. It's called "the ozone layer", and it does not look like the rings of Saturn.

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Probably. You just set one of the particles to 2:45 PM, and other particle automatically jumps to 2:45 PM. 😂

    I think they have to be perfectly in sync to show what he wanted to show. And there's some question whether that's possible. The idea of a camera instead of a sensor is to capture an image showing the light's progress. If it makes it partway through the field of view, as represented in the...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Personally, I find the one-way speed of light idea to be similar to employing miracles to explain everything we don't understand. I'm pretty sure Bob was against it, too. He had devised an experiment to test it, if I remember correctly. (I'm not sure his experiment would work, but he explained...

    @JudgeRightly. If I may jump in here, I think I understand what Clete is getting at. If the stretching was completed prior to day 7, then anything older than 7500 years would have occurred during the "very good" portion of creation, and stars imploding or exploding dont fit your definition of...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Absolutely. That doesn't mean I'm completely on board with it, but it is a biblically sound, physical, material cause (fountains of the deep) for a physical, material phenomenon (flood ejectiles), that results in a physical, material scar. Rather than postulating that He made something look...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    That the source for the windows is the fountains. The two water features are presented on par with each other, so to make one a source of the other is not intuitive, and certainly not explicit. Except that 8:2 doesn't allow for a continuation of the fountains AFTER the rain stopped. Remember...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    That was one of the theories for where dinosaur bones came from--except they said Satan planted them. Suggesting that the "fossils" of stars are merely illusions or fake remnants is not a helpful position to take, imo.

    Scriptures that show that Christs death saved a person while in unbelief !

    Without any other commentary as to why you posted it, it appears to be a poor attempt to support the thread title. Is that what you meant to do?

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    I didn't reply to the whole post, JR, as I wanted to just discuss the canopy for a moment. Your biblical arguments against the canopy, that the "windows of heaven" don't necessitate it, are the same as arguments against the rain coming from the fountains of the great deep--the biblical text has...
