Why do evolutionists deny the obvious? Their presuppositions force them too! How many fossil graveyards will it take before evolutionists admit that there was a real worldwide flood? Creationists have long since known that fossil graveyards around the world were laid down by the flood waters God sent to judge humanity. Creationists also have working scientific hypotheses about how, why, when, and to what extent life was affected by such a monstrous and monumental worldwide disaster. Evolutionists are baffled by these findings. In a recent article on Live Science (Petrified Animals Died Quickly) the author remarks, “To understand how this miracle of preservation occurred, the researchers carefully analyzed the layers of rock at the site.” Why is it such a miracle that these organisms were fossilized? First, it is related to the quantity of organisms preserved. Second, it is related the long duration of preservation (Cambrian period). Third, it is related to the fact that it must have been a catastrophic event (quick burial instead of years and years of slow deposition). And last, it is related to the fact that even soft bodied organisms were fossilized (How many times have we seen this recently?).
If evolutionists would discard their presupposition in millions of years and accept the Biblical account of the global flood, all would easily be seen for what it is. First, during the flood massive amounts of organisms were buried quickly and then fossilized. Second, there haven’t been long periods of time (millions of years) but only about 6,ooo years of history (with the Biblical flood at 4,500 years ago). Third, the Biblical flood is the catastrophic event that explains the burial of vast quantities of organisms. And last, soft bodied organisms that have been fossilized are easily understandable with a 4,500 year history since the flood, but a stumbling block to evolutionists.
With the Biblical flood in view all makes since!
The Biblical flood event and the resulting years that followed this event can easily explain all of the following….
…fossils around the world buried in vast quantities
…the onset of the ice age (not millions of years ago but 4,000 or so)
…languages and their development
…phenotypic and genotypic differences between humans
…the layers of sediment around the earth
…petrified forests and other peculiar fossilized organisms
Evolutionists will always be confused by the evidence they see while creationists stand back and see confirmation of the Bible and its recorded history which makes perfect sense of the world around them.
