I don't have a lot of time right now, so I'm not going to waste it refuting every
point on this site (and there are MANY that are ludicrous), but the following is
just too rich to pass up...
"Aquatic air-breathing mammals such as whales and dolphins would have
been better placed than many fish to survive
the flood because of the turbidity
of the water, changes in temperature, etc. The
fossil record testifies to the
massive destruction of marine life, with marine
creatures accounting for 95
percent of the fossil record.[3] Some, such as
trilobites and ichthyosaurs,
probably became extinct at that time."
Ohhhhhh, OKKKK, dinosaurs lived at the same time as humans.
Hmmm, I don't remember any mention in the Bible about 20 ft lizards eating people
left and right, in fact, I don't remember any mention of them PERIOD. People
would have been a nice snack for Trex, and a good meal for velociraptors. Or was
"God with them" all the time (instead of just in the Ark), so they stayed out of
sight of humans and didn't eat them?
Do you REALLY think that if dinosaurs existed less than 6K years ago, people would
band together and make a conscious decision to NOT mention them in the Bible?
PAP!

Because the belief in a 6000 year old earth with all of the evidence today is so
insanely ridiculous?
