sOME mORE iNCONVENIENT pHYSICAL fACTS cONCERNING THE sTRATA AS rECORDS OF TIME pERIODS

tHIS IS A GREATION i'VE HAD FOR SOME TIME AND i THOUGHT i'D HAVE BEEN BLE TO ANSWER IT BY NOW.  i KEEP TRYING OUT VARIOUS yOU TUBE VIDEOS ON THE FOSSIL REORD AND PALEONTOLOGY AND SO ON BUT SO FAR i DON'T GET A CLEAR ANSWER.   

hERE'S THE QUESTION.  hOW MANY DIFFERENT FOSSILS ARE REPRESENTED IN EACH OF THE TIME PERIODS.   iN THE CAMBRIAN THERE WAS SUPPOSEDLY THE CAMBRIAN "EXPLOSION" I WHICH A HUGE VARIEYT OF COMPLEX CREATURES SUPPOSEDLY SHOWED UP MORE OR LESS ALL AT ONCE IN THE FOSSIL RECORD, A GRET EXPLOSION OF LIFE AS THEY THINK OF IT.  sHOULDN'T WE THEN SEE THOSE SAME CREATURES IN ROUGTHLY THE SAME NUMBERS SHOWING UP IN ALL THE SUBSEQUENT STRATA OR TIME PERIODS AS WELL?  aLONG WITH WHATEVER NEW FOSSILS ALSO SHOW UP?  aND THEN WITH THOSE NEW FOSSILS SHOUDLJ'T THE WHOLE COLLECTION KEEP SHOWING UP ABOVE THAT TOO, ALL BEING CARRIECDD THOUGH ALL THE STRATA AND TIME PERIODS TO THE VERY TOP OF THE GEOLOGICL COLUM?  

tHE SUPPOSED EXTINCTION EVENTS OF COURSE WOULD HAVE HAD AN EFFECT.  tHEY JUDGE SUCH EVENTS BY THE ABSENSE OF PARTICULAR LIFE FORMS IN STRATA ABOVE THE SUPPOSED OCCURRENCE OF SUCH AN EVENT.  aND THER HAVE EEN MANY OF THEM, ALL OF COURSE SUPPOSED TO HVE HAPPENED BECAUES OF THE ABSENSE OF SOME FOSSIL OR ALNOTHER WHERE THEY EXPECT IT TO SHOW UP.    sO i DON'T KNOW IF ANYTHING EVEN STILL EXISTS TO ANSQER MY QUESTION.  wAS THERE AN EXTINCTION EVENT THAT WIPED OUT THE FOSSILS IN TEH CAMBRIAN EXPLOSION?  tHEY'D ALL BE THERE ABOVE THAT ROCK IN COMPARABLE NUU,MBERS OTHERWISE WOULDN'T THEY?  

i SUSPECT THERE'S MORE EVIDENCE AGAINST EVOLUTION IN THIS QUESTION OF COURSE, THAT'S WHY i'M ASKING IT.  iF EACH SUPPOSED TIME PERIOD IS MOSTLY POPULATED BY FOSSILS OF THE PARTICULAR CREATURE SUPPOSED TO HAVE EVOLVED FROM EARLYIER PERIODS TO BECOME CHARACTERISTIC OF THIS HIGHLY POPULATED PERIOD THAT CASTS DOUBT ON THE THEORY RIGHT THERE.  bECAUE PERSUMABLY EVERYTHING THAT LIVED BEFORE CONTINUED ON INTO THE FUTURE.  bARRING AN EXTINCTION EVENT.    aRE THERE AS MANY OF A GIVEN SPECIES PRESENT ABOVE THEIR SUPPOSED FIRST APPEARANCE IN A LOWER ROCK  AS SHOUJLD BE EXTPECTED OR NOT?  iF NOT THEN SURELY SOMETHING OTHER THAN EVOLUTION IS THE EXPLANATION FOR THESE STRATA AND THEIR SUPPOSED TIME PERIODS.

aaNOTHER QUESTION IS HOW COME WE HAVE PRETTY MUCH ALL SEASCAPES IN TEH LOWER ROCKS OF THE GEOLOGICAL COLUMN N AND LATER ON IN THE UPPER ROCKS WE START TO GET TERRESTRIAL LANDSCAPES WITH LAND ANOIMALS.  i'M THINKING ABOUT THE PHYSICAL POSSIBILITIES AGAIN AS USUAL.  tHESE ROCKS ARE ALL STACKED ONE ON TOP OF ANOTHER ANDYYET THE ENVIRONMENT CHANGES FROM BOTTOM TO TOP?  hAS THIS BEEN ACCOUNTED FOR AND HOW?    sHOULDN'T THERE ALSO HAVE BEEN A LOT OF LAND AREA DURING THE PERIOD OF THE LOWER ROCKS EVEN IF THERE WASN'T ANY LAND LIFE TO SHOW OF IT?  bUT WE DON'T GET EMPTY STRATA, ONLY STRATA FILLED WITH FOSSIL SEA LIFE, RIGHT?   tHEN IN THE UPPER ROCKS OF CCOURSE THERE WERE ALSO SEAS, OCEANS IN THE WORLD DURING THOSE PERIODS TOO BUT ALL WE ARE GETTING IS THE LAND ANIMALS IN THOSE STRATA, EVERYWHERE ON EARTH.  tHESE STRATA EXTENTDFC ALL OVE THE EARTH.  bUT THE EARTH DIDN'T CHANGE FROM ALL SEASCAPE TO ALL LANDSCAPE EEVER THAT i RECALL ANYTONE THEORIZING.    i HOPE MY QUESTION MAKES SOME IND OF SESNE, i MAY NOT BE ASKING IT ALL THAT CLEARLY.R 

tHERE AREN'T ANY LAND ANIMALS IN THE LOWER STRATA BUT THERE ARE SOME SEA CREATURES IN THE UPPER STRATA ALONG WITH THE LAND ANIMALS AREN'T THERE?  oR ARE THER?  hWO DID THEY GET THERE IF SO?  

mAYBE SOMEONE HAS SADDRESED THESE UESTIONS SOMEWHERE, i'M JUT NOT ABLE TO FIND IT.  i'VE LOOKED AT VIDEOS ON PAELEOGRAPHY AND EVEN STRATIGRAPHY, NOT A LOT BUT SOME AND SDON'T SEE ANYTHING RELEAVNT.

bY THE WAY i PRAY TO GET ANSWERS TO SUCH QUESTIOJS.  lABTELY i'VE GEENGETTING THE     UESTIOS THEMSEVLES TO ASK LIKE THESE.  

dRAT, i KNJOW i'M GETTING OLD AND MY MEMORY IS BECOMING IFFY AT TIMES AND M FINGERS DON'T WAN T TO DO WHAT i WANT THEM TO DO AND IT'S ALL VERY FRUSTRATING.  dRAT.  

oOPS THAT WAN'T VERY cHRISTIAN OF ME, i'M SORRY lORD.  i'M SUPPOSED TO REJOICE IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, EVEN THESE, BECAUE ALgOD ALWAYS BRINGS GOOD OUT OF ALL THINGS FOR THOSE WHO LOVE hIM AND ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO hI S PURPOSES.  eVEN MY FAILURES.  IN FCT hE LIKES TO USE PEOPLE WHO ARE FAILURES TO DISPLAY hIS EXISTENCE AND POWER, AND i MUST BE A GOLDMINE OF FAILURES FOR hIM TO WORK WITH SO THANKS yOU lORD.

Monday Sept nine

I mention in  a later ost that I did get more of a sense of what fossils are grouped together in different time periods and one thing did become clear, that there are both land and sea creatures buried int he same rock aka time period apparently fairly close together.  And this should by itself blie and disqualify the whole idea of time periods since according to the idea that they are a record of living tings tht lived in that period and were buried in those rocks you obviously couldn't have both land and crsea crfeatures buried in the same place.  

The questionj I'm asking above sounds pretty stupid ow that I know the answer since of course anyone who has studied the fossil record would know that there are both land and sea cretures in many of the rocks aka time periods.    they must have some way of accepting this as reasonable but I can't figure out how.  

Through most of this discussion I've contented myself with pointing out the wrojgn ideas of the evolutionists, but I might as well from time to time mention the right eidea of the creationjists, which hisch is that you can have both land and sea creatures i mone layer of rock if it was deposited by waves thta washed over the land during the Flood.

gOD sHOWED ME THE cAUSE OF TEH iCE aGE AND sCIENCE kIND OF aGREES bUT of COUSE THEY AHVE THE CAUSE ALL WRONG

 qOW, HOW INTERESTING.  i'VE BEEN WATCHING, OR MORE ACCURATELY, LISTENING TO A VIDEO ABOUT THE SNOWBALL EARTH AND THE SCIENTIST WHO HAS BEEN STUDYING IT, AND HE THINKS HE HAS PROVEN THAT THE GLACIERS DID AT ONE TIME COVER THE AREA OF THE EQATOR, TURNING THE WHOLE PLANET INTO A SNOWBALL AS IT EWERE.  

tTHEN THEY ASK THE QUESTION WHAT CAUSED IT, AND IN MY HEAD i'M GIVING MY ANSWER AS i WROTE IT OUT IN THE LAST POST,  WELL, THE fLOOD DID, AS IT DENUDED THE ATMOSPHERE OF ITS MOISTURE CANOPOY AND EXPOSED THE PLANET TO COLD SPACE, CAUSING THE GREAT HEAT BUILT UP BY THE GREAT UPHEAVAL i ALSO PUT ABOUT THAT SAME TIME, OR THE SPLITTING OF THE CONTINENTS AS THE TECTONIC PLATES STARTED PULLING APARET.   GREAT HEAT SUDDENLY EVACULAATED WOULD BRING ON AN ICE AGE.  i FIGURE gOD LED ME TO THIS UNDERSTANDING.

wELL, OF COURSE THIS SCIENTIST DOESN'T HAVE THE WORLDWIDE fLOOD IN HIS SCHOLARLY ARMAMENTARIUM, BUT HE DOES COME UP WITH SOMETHIG QUITE SIMILAR TO WHAT i CAME UP WITH.  hE TALKS ABOUT ABOUT THE GREENHOUSE GASES THTA IN THE RIGHT PROPORTION KEEP THE PLANETE'S CLIMATE TEMPERATE BUT CAUSING WARMING IF THERE ARE TOO \\\\\\       IF THE GASES ARE TOO MUCH, ND COLLING IF TOO LITTLE.  hE SPECIFICALLY TALKS ABOUT cARBON dIOXIDE, i DON'T KNOW WHY HE FOCUSES ON THAT ONE BUT ANYWAY THAT'S THE ONE HE FOCUSES ON.   i'M SURE HE MUST BE RIGHT WHILE i JUST THINK IN TERMS OF GASES PLURAL AND MOISTURE CANOPY FOR THE EARLIEST SUCH CANOPY AS THEY CALL IT IN THE CREATIONIST LITERATURE.

aNYWAY SO HE FIGURES THAT FOR SOME REASO THERE WAS A DROP IN THE AMOUNT OF CARBON DIOXIDE IN THE ATOSPHERE AS THE AUSE OF THE SNOWBALL EARTH ICE AGE.  gOD TURNED ME INTO A REAL SCIENTIST i THINK WHE hE LET ME UNDERSTAND HOW THE GASES WOULCD HAVE DISAPPEARED AS A RESULT OF THE fLOOD AND ALLOWED SUCH COOLING.

HIS SCIENTIST, HOWEVER, SORRY i HAVEN'T CAUGHT HIS NAME YET, i'LL TRY TO GET IT, ANYWAY HE EXPLAINS THE REDUCTION IN CARBON DIXIDE AS THE RESTL T OF EWEATHERING, THE COMBINING OF CARBON DIOXIDE WITH WATER VAOR TO FORM ACIDE RAIN WHICH BINDS THE co TWO IN SOME FORM THAT TAKES IT TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA, THAT PART i HAVE TO GO BACK AND REVIEW.  iN THE SEA IT FORMS LIMESTONE, THAT OO IS INTERESTING.  THERE'S AN AWFUL LOT OF LIMESTONE IN THOSE STRATA.  

NALLY WAS ABLE TO MAKE OUT THE TITLE OF THE VIDEO:  a sNOWBALL eRTH:  hOW THE iCE aGE nEARLY wIPED oUT aLL lIFE / cATASTROPHE.

tOO MANY SCIENTISTS ARE INVOLVED IN THE STORY AT THES POINT SO i DON'T HAVE HAT NAME BUT THE TITLE OUTHGT TO HELP.

S STUFF IS INTERSETING BECAUAE i ALWAYS THINK IN TERMS OF THE BIBLCIAL EXPLANATION AND TRY TO FIT IN WHAT SCIENTISTS KNOW WITH THE BIBLICAL RECORD.  tHREE ARE ALWAYS SOME ELEMENTS IN THE SCIENTIFIC  PICTURE THAT FIT AND SOME THAT DON'T FIT.   iN THIS CASE THERE WESEEM TO BE AMANY ELEMENTS THAT WFIT WITH TEH WORLDWIDE fLOOD AND A FOLLOWING ICE AGE AS i'VE BEEN RECONSTRUCTING IT INN MY HEAD.  aND BY THE WAY, AS FAR AS i KNOW i'M THE ON;LY ONE WHO HAS THOUGTH IN TERMS OF WHAT BROUGHT ON THE ICE AGE, i THINK gOD SHOWED IT TO ME AND i DON'T THINK EHTHERE ARE ANYC REATIONISTS OTHERWISE WHO HAVE MADE THE CONNECTION.  YES i WANT CREDIT AS \\FOR WHAT i DO ACCOMPLSIH HERE, i KNOW NOBODY WELL KNO i DON'T KNOW THAT BUT i FIGURE NOBODY IS EVER GOING TO NOTICE ME AND i'LL NEVER GET CREDIT FOR ANYWAYRTHING AND i DON'T WANT THE CREDIT AS MUCH AS i JJUST DON'T WANT SOMEONE ELSE TO GET IT WHO DOES'T SDESERVE IT.  i'M HAPPY ANONYMOUS AND i NOW IT'S GOD WHO GETS ALL THE CREDIT ANYWAY.  bUT YES IT DOES BOTHER ME THAT i KEEP PUTTING OUT MY THOUGHTS IN THIS PUBLIC WAY AND ANYONE COULD JUST STEAL THEM.  i WULD HOPE THAT cHRISTAINS WOULN'T BUT i'VE ALREADY SEEN SOME OF MY STUFF TAKEN UP BY cHRISTAINS.

aNSWAY, IT WOULD BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE HOW THE KNOWLEDGE THAT HAS BEEN ACCUMULATED ABOUT THE EARTH DOS FIT INTO THE BIBLICAL PICTURE IN THE END.  iF IT WERE EVER RECOGNIZED THAT THE BIBLICAL STORY IS TRUE AND EVOLUTION A BIG FARCE THEN THAT'S WHERE THE SCIENTIFIC WORK WOULD WGO, TO UNDERSTANDING THE ARTH BEFORE , DURING AND AFTER TEH fALL AND THE FLOOD.  

aLTHUGH THIS SCIENTIST DOES THINK HE'S SHOW TN THT THE GLACIERS DID ONCE COVER THE EQUATOR, APPARENTLY IT HASN'T BEEN DFINITIVELY PROVEN TO HAVE BEEN THE CASE.  bUT THE DEATH OF ALL LIVING THINGS OR MOST OF THEM DOES FIT IN WELL WITH THE fLOOD STORY OF COURSE, SINCE IT WS THE WHOLE POINT OF THAT CATASTROHE TO KILL OFF ALL LAND LIFE, AND MOST OF SEA LIFE S WELL.  tHAT'S WHAT ALL THOSE FOSSILS ARE IN THE SO CALLED FOSSIL RECORD, AND THEY SHOULD BE A TREASURE TROVE OF INFORMATION AOUT THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF LIFE ON THE PLANET BEFORE THE fLOOD IF SCIENCE EVER GOT SANE AND REOCGNIZED THT'S WHAT REALLY HAPPENED.    

gING BACK TO THE VIDEO NOW i'M WONDERING ABOUT THE TITLE SINCE SUPPOSEDLY THIS SNOWBALL EARTH OCCURRED SIX HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION YEARS AGO BEFORE EVOLUTION BEGAN AND THERE WS ONLY CYANOBACTREIA LIVING ON THE PLANET.  iS THAT WHAT THEYARE TALKINGA BOTU?  

tHEY ALSO GIVE OTHER REASONS FOR THE COMING ON OF SUCH A CATASTROPHIC ICE AGE HAVING TO DO WITH THE REFLECTIVE PROTERTIES OF ICE AND WATER AND OTHER SUCH THINGS.   BUT IT STILL SEEMS THAT THE MOST BASIC REASON HAS TO HVE BEEN THE COLLAPSE OF THE GREENHOUSE CGAS CANOPY AS IT WERE AS BACK THEREN IT IS DECRIBE IN SCRIPTURE AT LEAST IN TERMS OF A WATER OR MOISTURE LADEN BELT AROUND THE PLANET WHICHN WOULD HAVE DONE WHAT GREENHOUSE GASEES TO, KEEPING IN WARMTH AND SO ON.  sO THAT WHHEN IT COLAPSED INTO THE HEAVY RAIN THATHAT BROUGHT ON THE FLOOD IT WOULD ALLOW HET TO ESCAPE AND AN ICE AGE WOULD HAVE EEN THE RESULT.  jUST ONE, THOUGH, ALL THT TIME AND MULTIPLE EVENTS EVOLUTIONJARY SCIENCE COEMS UP WITH HAS TO GO IF THEY WNAT TO TFIND OUT WHAT REALLY HAPPENED ON THIS PLANET.

iHAVE TO PICTURE nOAYH AND FAMILY NOW HAVING TO BUNDLE UP TO KEEP WARM AFTER TEHY DISEMBARKED FROM THEIR YEAR LONG SHELTER  RIDING ON THE OCEASN.  i DO WONDER HOW LONG THE WORST OF IT WOULD HAVE LASTED.  aLL THOAT COULD BE SCTUDIED SCIENTIFICALLY TOO i'M SURE.  NOT MUCH IS SAID IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT THE IMMEDIATE PERIOD AFTER THE fLOOD.  NOAH IS TOLD TO START EATING MEAT WHEREAS BEFORE THE PREDOMINANT DIET FOR ALL LIVING THINGS WAS PLANET LIFE, AND hE GAVE THEM THE RAINBOW AS A PROMISE THAT HE WOULD NOT fLOOD THE EARTH AGAIN.  THEN WE SEE THE FAMILIES OF HIS NSONS SPREADING OUT IN TH EARTH AND THEN WE JUMP AHEAD A FEW HNDRED HYEARS AT BEGIN THE STORY OF aGBRAHAM.  sO IF THERE WAS A LOT OF SNOW AND ICE IN THE mIDDLE EAST DURING THAT PERIOD IT ISN'T MENTIONED.\\\

i KEEP CONTINUING TO LISTEN TO THIS VIDEO ABOUT THE SNOWBALL EARTH.  iT GOT BORING IN THE PART ABOUT THE CYANOBACTERIA BUT NOW IT'S INTERESTING AGAIN, ALL ABOUT VOLCANOES.   hERE'S MY SCENARIO AGAIN:  aFTER THE fLOOD OR TWOARD THE END OF IT, i REALLY DON'T KNOW THE TIMING BUT IT COULD HAVE TRIGGERED THE DRAINING OF THE fLOOD OR IT COULD HAVE OCCURRED IN STAGES,B UTBUT IN ANY EVEN ALL THESE THINGS HD TO HAVE EEN RELATED AND RELATED TO THE END OF THE fLOOD.  THE TECTONIC PLATES SPLIT APART, THE aTLANTIC RIDGE WAS FORMED, MAGMA RISING UP FROM BENEATH THE SEA FLOOR IN THAT LONG RIBBON WE SEE TACED ON SOME MAPS AS IT WIDENED THE SEA FLOOR AND THE CONTINENTS SLID APART FROM THAT RIDGE.  THAT SPLITTING APART WAS OF COURESE ONE HUGE CATASTROPHIC VENT AND i EXPLAIN ALL THE ANGULAR UNCONFORMITIES AND IN FACT ALL THE UNCONFORMITIES AND THE BREKAING UP OF THE STRATA WHEREVER WE SEE IT AND THE RISING OF THE MOUNTAINS EVERYWHERE, TO THAT EVENT, SOME TAKING TIME TO GET NDERWAY BUT ALL TRIGGERED AT THAT SAME MOMENT.  tHE fLOOD NEEDED SOMETHING TO CAUSE IT TO DRAIN.  wHERE WAS IT GOING TO GO?  sOME THINGK THE SEA FLOOR DROPPED.  pERHAPS IT DID.  pEHRPAS THE FLOUNDTAINS OF THE DEP THAT WERE THE FIRST THING THAT HAPPENED WHEN THE fLOOD BEAGAN CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA FLOOR LEAVING A VACCUUM THAT WAS THEN THE SPACE THE SWATER WOULD DRAIN BACK INTO BUT THE SEA FLOOR WOULD HAV ETO DROP FOT HAT TO HAPPEN.>  tHAT WOULD CERTAIN FIT WITH THE TECTONIC SPLITTING.    

aND THEN OF COURSE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN VOLCANOES, THOUSANDS OF THEM AS THE CONTININETS STARTED MOVEING AND TRIGGERING THEM, AS THAT MOVEMETN STILL DOW ON THE WEST COAST OF nORTH AN sOUTH aMERICA.  tHE MOVEMETN NOW IS EXTREMELY SLOW BUT IT BUILD S UP PRESSURE THAT EVENTUALLY GIVES MAY TO A BIG EARTHQUAKE AND THE ERUPTION OF VOLCANEOES AND SO ON.  wELL, RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING WHEN THE CONTINENTS EGEGAN TO DRIFT APART, WELL PRETTY FAST AT FIRST BUT LATER MORE LIKE DRIFINTING, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT O VIOLENT ACTIVITY GOING ON.  sINCW THE ONLY LIVING THINGS WERE THE PEOPLE AND ANIMALS ON THE ARK AND EVERYTHINGELSE WAS SUPPOED TO DIE ANYWAY WE CAN SAY THERE WAS NO THREAT TO LIFE IN THE SENSE THAT IT WOULD REPOPULATE OVER TIME.  sOME SEA LIFE CONTINUED TO LIVE BUT MOST OF THAT DIED OFF TOO.  

aNYWAY THERE WULD HAVE BEEN ALL THESE VOLCANOES TRIGGERED BY THE TECTONIC MOVEMETN AND IT'S INTEREST THEN TO HEAR ABOUT ALL THAT VOLCANOIC ACTIVITY BEING PART OF THE PICTURE AS THESE SCIENTISTS DISCUSS IT IN THIS VIDEO ABOUT THE SNOWBALL EAERTH.  tHE IDEA IS THAT THE VOLCANOES SAVED THE DAY AND CAUSED THE ICE TO RETREAT.  sUPPOSEDLY THE ICE REMAINS FOR SOME TWETNY FIVE MILLION YEARS IF i RECALL CORRECTLY AND THEN THEE VOLCANOES ERUPTED.  wELL, i ONT' PAY MUCH ATTENTION TOH TO THE TIMETIMING FANTASIES OF THE SCIENTIEST.  yES i APPRECIATE SCIENCE WHEN IT DEALS WITH THINGS IT CAN REALLY SEE AND STUDY BUT TIME ISN'T ONE OF THEM.  aNYWAY.  iN MY SCENARIO ALL THIS WAS HAPPEING PRETTY MUCH AT THE SAME TIME.  THE ERATH STARTED SPLITTING, THE CONTINENTS STARTED MOVING THE VOLCANOES STARTED BLOWING UP AND SO ON.  a LOT OF HEAT WAS BEING VGENERATED DURING ALL THAT ACTIVITY AND MOST OF IT EXITED INTO SPAC3E.  tHAT'S WHAT BROUGH T ON THE ICE AGE WHETHER TO THE SNOWBALL DEGREE OR NOT, AND ONLY ONE OF THEM.  IT DOES MAKE SENSE THAT OFVER TIME THE VOLCANOES COULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE WARMING THAT CAUSED IT TO RETREAT PERHAPS MORE RAPIDILY THTN IT WOULD HVE.  THERE WERE BOTH WRMING AND COOLING EFFECTS GOING ON.  iN THE END THERE WERE GLACIERS EXTENDING PRETTY FAR FROM THE POLES BUT RETREATING OVER THE MILENNIA BIT BY BIT.  vOLCANOES WOULD HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS AT FIRST BUT SLOWING DOWN SO THAT WE SEE ONLY ONE OR TWO NOW AND THEN TOGEDAY.  THE CONTINENTS ARE STILL DRIFINT APART BUT AT A MINUSCULE RATE.   THE "GREENOUSE GASES" HAVE BEEN RECONSTITUTED, PERHAPS MORE THAN WE WANT.  

tHE SNOALL VIDO GOES ON NOW INTO THE IDEA THAT THE RESULT OF ALL THIS IN THE END WAS THE GRETA EXPLOSINON O LIFE ON EARTH AS IT PROVIDED THE CONDITIONS FOR LIFE TO EVOLVE FROM THOSE EARLY BACTGERIA INTO MORE COMPLEX FORMS.  oF COURFSE THIS IS ALL POPPUYCOCK AND EVOLUTION IS GENETICALLY IMPOSSIBLE BUT IT'S INTEREST ING TO THINGK ABOUT THE CHEMICAL CHANGES THEY THINK THEY CAN DETECT AND HOW IT ALL MIGHT RELATE TO THE fLOOD PERIOD.  nOT THAT i HVE ANU IDEAS AT THE MOMETN.  

tHE NATURE OF dna , OR EREALLY THENATURE OF THE GENOME OF A SPECIES, IS THAT ALL VARIATION IS VOCONFINED TO THAT GENOME.  aS i KEEP SAYING.  oH THEY DON'T THINK TOS, THEY ALL CARRY ON AS IF IT'S ALL OVOPENENDED YOU CAN JUMP FROM ONE GENOME TO ANOTHER SUCH AS READILY AS YOU CAN GET A BLUE EYED CHILD DRFROM BREOWN IEYED PARENTS.   THEY JUST AROUDN'T THINKING THESE VERY HIGH iw SCIENTIESTS.  tHEY JUST AREN'T THINKING.  hOW DO YOU GET OUTSIDE THE GENOME?  THEY DON'T EVEN REALLY ADDRESS THE     UESTION, THEY JUST TGO ON AND ON AS IF THE FACT THAT THERE IS ANY CHANGE AT ALL MEANS THAT CHANGE IS GOING TO GO ON AND ON UNTIL ALL THE SPECIES ON EARTH HAVE COME FROM A SIGLE CELLED CREATURE.  tHIS IS ABOLUTE SCREAMING POPPYCOCK BUT THAT'S WHAT THEY BELIEVE.

ySTER DAY i THINK IT WAS i SAW ANOTHER VIDEO IN WHICH dARWIN'S GREAT GRANDSON INTERVIEWS ANE EXPERT IN PIGEON BREEDEDING, WHICH OF COURSE WAS A FAVORITE PASTIME OF dARWIN'S, AND THEY TALK ABOUT HOW IT WAS dARWIN'S IDEA THAT SINCE HE COULD GET ALL THESE WONDERFUL VARIATIONS IN PIGEONS FROM SIMLY SELECTING TRAITS TO BE REPRODUCED OVER AND OVER ATGAIN THAT THE SAME THING MUST BE WHAT HAPPENS IN NATURE AND PRODUCED ALL THE CREATURES WE SEE.

bUT REALLY, MY DEARS, BREEDING PIGEONS IS A MATTER OF BRINGING OUT WHAT IS ALREADY IN THEIR PIGEON GENOME.  yOU CAN'T GET THE ELABORATION OF A TRAIT UNLESS THAT TRAIT IS THERE IN THE GENOME AD IN THE CREATURE ITSELF IN A WAY THAT MAKES IT POSSIBLE FOR THE HUMAN BEING TO SELECT IT.   aLL THE TRAITS THAT ARE GOING TO SHOW UP ARE PIGEON TRAITS.  THE WHOLE PIGEON GENOME HAPPENS TO HAVE GEENNES FOR GUISESS WHAT, PIGEON TRAITS.   sURFE ALL KINDS OF INTERESTING AND DRAMATIC POSSIBILITIES THAT YOU'D NEVER ASSOCIATE WITH YOUR TYPICAL PIGEON BUT STILL POSSIBILITIES WITHIN THE PIGEO THAT DO COME OUT UNDER SELECTION PRESSURE.   fANCY FEATERING, EXSPANDED CROPS AND CHESTS WNANDWHATNOT, WHATEVER PIGEON CHARACTERIISTIC YOU WANT TO ELABORATE YOU CAN ELABORATE UNDER THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES.  bUT ALWAYS PIGEON AND ONLY PIGEON CHAARACTERISTICS.   

i WISH MY FINGERS WOULDN'T KEEP TRYING TO TYPE SOMETHIHNG OTHER THAN i WANT THEM TO TYPE.

bUT THEY TALK AS IF THEY AREN'T CONFINED TO THE PIGEON GENOME.  dAWKINS TALKS THT WAY TOO.  dARWIN DID OF COURSE AND i GUESS WE CAN GIVE HIM A BREAK CONSIDERING THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT GENETICS IN HIS DAY, BUT dAWKINS SHOULD KNOW BETTER, AND cOYNE AND ALL THE REST OF THEM.  

sLO THERE IS THIS FACT THAT OVER MANY GENERATIONS OF REPRODING ONE TRAIT TO THE EXLUCION OF THE ALTERNATIVE ALLELE, THAT OTHER ALLELE WILL EVENTUALLY DROP OUT OF THE POPULATION ALTOGETHER AND LEAVE ONLY THE ONE FOR THE TRAIT, IN HOMNOZYGOUS FORM, TWO OF THE SAME ALLELE ON THE ONE GENE FOR LOTS OF TRAITS THAT MAKE UP THE NEW BREED OR RACE OF WHATEVER HAS COME BACK THROUGH SELECTION DOMESTIC OR NAUTRAL.   wHEN YOU GET HOMOZYGOSITY FOR SO MANY TRAITS AND THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE IN A WHOLE POPULATOIN YOU HAVE COME TO THE END OF THE POSSIBILITY OF FURTHER CHANGE, FURTHER EVOLUTION AS IT WERE, VFURTHER VARIATION.  yOU HAVE YOUR PUREBRED TAIT, YOUR PUREBRED ANIMAL.  aND THAT IS THE END OF THAT.  iT'S COME TO AN END INSIDE THE SPECIES GENOME AS IT WERE.  yOU NEVER GOT ANYWEHRE NEAR LEAVING THE GENOME AND YOU'VE ALREADY RUN OUT OF GENETIC MATERIAL FOR FURTHER EVOLUTION AS IT WERE.

eVLTION CAN'T HAPPEN mR. dAWKINS, mR. cOYNE.  nO, IT ISN'T TGRUE, mR. cOYNE.  yOU ARE LIMITED TO THE CREATURE'S GENOME.  aND  yES EVEN IF YOU ADD MUTATIONINTO THE MIX BECAUSE ALL MUTATION DOES IS AT BEST ADD A VARIATION TO THE TRAIT, CHANGING ONE GENE THAT IS ALREADY IN THE GENOME TO DO SOMETHING SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT BUT IT'S STILL THAT GENE THAT BELONGS TO THAT GENOME AND NOTHINN   NOT SOMETHING ELSE.  

hey.  lISTEN UP.

nOTHING EVOLVED AFTER TEH fLOOD THOUGH LOTS OF ANIMALS VARIED ENORMOUSLY AND MOVED OUT FROM THE AREA WHERE THEY DISEMBARKED IT VARIOUS NIGHES ALL OOVER THE PLANET WHERE THEY DEELOPED THEIR OWN POPULATIONS OF SUBSPEAKCIES OF EVERYTHING THAT HAD BEEN SAVED ON THE ARK.  

sCYANOBACTERIA NEVER BECAME ANYTHING BUT CYNANOBACTERIA.

tHEY NEVER EVEN ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM OR TRY TO ANSWER IT, WHICH MAKES ME THINK THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW IT EXISTS.   cOME ON, YOU GUYES, YOU HAVE ETO EXPLAIN HOW YOU GET THE KIND OF CHANGE THAT CREATES A WHOLE NEW GENOME FROM AN EXISTING ONE WHEN IT'S SO CLEAR THAT ALL YOU EVER GET IN ALL THE MULTITUDINOUS VARIOANTS WE ESEE IN LIVING THINGS IS VARIATOINS ON WHAT THEIR PARTICULAR GENOME HAS ALREADY CODEND WITHIN IT.  cOME con YOU GUYS.

cREATIONIST aLERNATIVE VISION OF aLL THAT sTUFF THE eVOLUTIONISTS aPPROPRIATE TO tHEIR sUPERIOR UNDERSTANDING

 iT'S ESY TO GET DISCOURAGED  AS A CREATIONIST BECAUSE THE EVOLUTIONISTS HVE SPENT SO MUCH TIME ELABORTING THEIR THEORY AND STUFFING THE LITERTURE WITH THEIR STUDIES OF ALL THE FACETS OF BIOLOTY AND GENETICS AND GEOLOGY AND PALEONTOLOGY SO THAT THE CONTRARY VISION OF THE CREATIONIST CAN'T GET A WORD IN EDGEWISE AS IT WERE.

iT'S EITHER AMUSING OR FRUSTRATING DEPENDING ON MY MOOD TO READ OR LISTEN TO THE USUAL DESCRIIPTIONS OF EARTHLY PHENOMENA FROM THE EVOLUTIONIST POINT OF VIEW, AS THEY GO ON AND ON CONJURING UP HISTORICAL SCENARIOS ABOUT OF SCANT CLUES AND JUST ABOUT NEVER EVER DESCRIBE THE CLUES THEMSELVES SO THAT A PERSON COULD APPLY A DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION TO THEM.  oR AT LEAST QUESTION THEIR EIINTERPRETATION.

sO WE HEAR ABOUT HOW A PARTICULAR CREATURE DEVELOPED A STRATEGY UNDER CERTAIN CLIMATIC CONDITIONS, AND HOW THE CILIMATE WAS CHANGING IN THIS OR THAT TIME PERIOD FROM DRY AND HOT TO WET AND COOLER OR SOME SUCH, BUT IT'S THE STORY WE GET, NOT THE EVIDENCE ITSELF, NOT THE LITTLE CLUES ON WHICH THEY BUILD THEIR HISTORY.   sO cOYNE FLATLY ANNOUNCES THT THIS OR THT EVOLVED FROM THIS OR THAT IN SUCH AND SUCH A TIME FRAME AND BRANCHED OFF OR WHATJOT AND SO ON AND SO FORTH AND THEN TELLS CREATIONISTS WE BETTER BELIEVE IT OR ELSE.  cUZ HE BELIEVES IT, AND HE BELIEVES IT SO INTENSIVELY THAT HE DOESN'T NEED TO BOTHER TO TRACE OUT THE EVIDENCE THAT LED HIM THERE.  sI GE;S GIT  sO HE'S GOT A CREATURE THT IS FOUND IN DIFFERENT VRIATIONS IN LAYERS ONE ON TOP OF ANOTHER, SOME LARGER AND SOME SMALLER AND JUT CDECLARES THAT  THEY REPRESENT THE EVOLUTION OF THE SAME CREATURE AND THT IN SOME TIME FRAME IT WAS SMALLER AND IN SOME LARGER BECAUSE OF THE EINNVIRONMENT OF THE TIME, WHICH OF COURSE HE DOESN'T EXPLAIN IN ANYH CASE.  

tHIS CAN BE AMUSING, SOETIMES EVEN MAKE ME LAUGH OUT OLOUD BEAUE OF COURSE i HAVE MY OWN PRETTY SOLIDLY FORMED IDEA OF HOW THINGS HAPPENED THAT IS DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT FROM HIS.  THOSE ARE DIFFERENT CREATURES IN THOSE LAYERS BY MIY LIGHTS, NOT THE EVOLUTION OF ONE SPECIES BUT ENTIRELYDIFFERE VARIETIES OF THE SAME SPECIES THAT ALL COEXISTED AT THE SAME TIME.  THEYH KJUST HAPPENED TO GET BURIED IN DIFFERENT LAYERS.  hE'SLL POINT TO OSMETHIHNG HE IS CERTAIN IS THE COMMON ANCESTOR OF TWO SPECIES BUT BASED AS FAR AS I CAN TELL ONLY ON THE FCT THAT IT SORT OF LOOKS LIKE IT MUST BE THAT ANCESTOR IF YOU BELIEVE THE THEORY BUT IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THE THEORY IT'S JUST ANOTHER CREATURE THAT EXISTED AT THE SAME TIME AS THE ONCES HE IDENTIFIES AS ITS DESCENDANTS.    

aLL THESE GUYS FIND A LOT OF CTIVITY IN THE STRATA.  i FIND A LOT OF DEAD THINGS THAT GOT WASHED UP ON THE LAND IN THE FLOOD.  

iT'S INTERESTING TO HEAR ABOUT THE PHENOMENA NEVERTHELESS, A LOT OF THINGS DID HAPPEN IN THE PAST THAT i WANT TO KNOW ABOUT ALTHOUGH i HAVE TO IGNORE THEIR TIME FRAME, MAYBE USE IT TO SEE IF OSMETHIGN CAME BEROFORE OR ANFTER SOMETHING ELSE BUT OTHERWISE FORGET THE MILLIONS OF YEARS.  aND SO ON.  sO i'M INTERESTED IN WHAT THEY CALL sNOWBALL EARTH FOR INSTANCE.  wHEN THE GLACIATION SPREAD FROM THE POLES TO VERY NEAR THE EQUATOR.  VERY INTERESTING.  tHEY THINK THERE WER EABOUT FIVE ICE AGES, i FIGURE THERE WAS ONE AND IT HAD TO HAVE BEEN FORMED SOON AFTE THE END OF THE fLOOD.  THE PRE fLOOD WORLD WAS PRETTY TEMPERATE AND HUMID TO JUDGE FROM SCIRPTURE REFERENCES TO IT, THE THTHEN THE fLOOD OF COURSE WOULD HVE DEVASTATED THE ENTIRE PLANET AND LALAID DOWN ALL THOSE LAYERS OF SEDIMENTS WITH ALL THOSE DEAD CREATURES IN THEM.  THEN AS I FIGURED IT OUT SOME TIME AGO, AND YEAH i KNOW YOU THINK i'M A NUTCASE BUT SO WHT, ANYWAY AS i FIGURED IT OUT IT WAS ABOUT THAT TIME THAT THE CONTIENTS SPLIT APRAT ND STARTED THEIR DRIFT WITH A BANG THAT HAS SLOWED OVER TIME TO ITS CURRENT HARLY PERSCEPTIBLE RATE.  i WOUJLD ALWAYS GET A LOT OF OBJECTIONS TO SUCH A SCENARIO BECAUSE i HAVE IT ALL HAPPENING FAIRLY VIOLENTSLY AND THE CONTEINTENTS MOVING TOO FAST ACCORDING TO THEM AT THE START OF THE SPLITTING, BUT THEN , THANKS TO THE lORD'S PROMPTING i HAVE NO DOUBT, i REALIZED THT PROBABLY WHAT HAPPENED IS THAT THE GREAT HEAT THAT MAY HAVE BEEN GENERATED BY ALL THAT ACTIVITY WOULD HAVE RAPIDLY EVACUATED INTO THE \\\\SPACE BECAUSE THE CANOPY OF MOISTURE THAT HAD COVERED THE EARTH BEFORE THE fLOOD HAD FALLEN IN FORTY DAYS AND IGHTS OF RAIN AND WOULD HAVE LEFT THE EARTH EXPOSED TO SPACE.  METEORS TOO, LIKE THE ONE THEY LUAGHABLY THINK KILLED THE DINOSAJURS.  METIORS WOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THE UPHEAVAL.    aNYWAY THE APID EVACULATION OF HEAT WOULD HAVE BROUGHT ON THE ICE AGE, one ICE AGE, THE "SNOWBALL" EARTH THAT EXTENDED SO CLOSE TO THE EQUATOR.  hOW LONG IT LASTED i DON'T KNOW BUTG CERTAINLY NOT MILLIONS OF YEARS.   i FIGURE IT'S BEEN GRADUALLY RETREATING EVER SINCE IT WS FORMED, IN SMALL INCREMENTS WITH OCCASIONAL ADVANCES FOLLOWING RETREATS AND SO ON UNTIL IT'S PRETTY MUCH OVER WITH BY NOW, NOT COMPLETELY SINCE WE STILL HAVE SOME GLACIATION AT THE POLLES OF COURSE, BUT ALMOST, AND IF YOU NEED A N EXPLANATION FO CLIMATE WARMING THERE YOU HAVE IT.

tHE SCIENTISTS ARE VERY DETAILED IN THEIR STUDIES OF THE FOSSIL RECORD , WHERE EACH FOLSSIL IS FOUND IN THE PARTICULAR SLAYER OF SEDIMETN AND SO ON, SO AS TO ASCERTAIN WHAT EVOLVED FROM WHAT IN WHAT TIME FRAME .  THEY'VE AMASSESD AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF DATA.  i THINKA LOT OF IT WOULD TURN OUT TO BE VERY USEFUL TO A CRETINIST BASED SCIENCE IF WE EVER GET THAT FAR BACK TO SANITY, BUT i SUPPOSE SOME OF IT WOULD REMAIN PECULIAR TO THE EVOLIUTIONIST FRAME OF REFERENCE AND NOT USEFUL.   BUT IN A CREATINJIST FRAMEWORK WE'D STILL WANT TO STUDY ALL THE LIVING THINGS THAT LIVED BEFORE THE fLOOD ADN THERE WERE LOTS OF CREATURES THAT NO LONGER LIVE AMONG US.  LL VERY INTERESTING STUDIES.  J  yOU KNOW, LIKE THOSE DINOSAURS THAT LIVED BEFORE THE fLOOD AND GOT KILLED OFF IN THE fLOOD, NOT BY A METEOR.  

oH WELL.

jERRY cOYNE tHINKS hE'S pROVED THTA EVOLUTION IS TRUE

 Jerry Coyne wrote a book titled Why Evolution Is True which I read many years ago by now and have oforgotten completely, but I just ran across a presentation by him on You Tube on the same subject as his book.  And as usual I find him claiming things are facts which right before our very eyyes show themselves clearly NOT to be facts.  Funny how tht is with these scientists who are so committed to evidentiary proof and scientific reasoning etc etc etc.

Capturing URLs is very difficult for me byut you can find the talk at Why Evolution Is True by Jerry Coyne if you want to check it out.

The first point he makes that I want to address is that "evolution occurs" which he isllustrates with the fact that "populations change" meaning they change genetically over time .   So a herd of something or other ove time will coe to look a bit different than it stat out looking and mayve eventually quite a bit different and so on.   OK, no problem.

But my problem is that this is not evolution.  This is variation, genetic variation that is built into the creature's genome wnand which is completely confined tot aht genome.  I've talked about this in previous posts.  Each generation is slightly different from the previous because of sexual recombination of the genes, or alleles which are alternate versions of a gene.  father donates one allele, mother donates the other and together they produce a trait in the offspring tht slightly differs fromn the same trait in the parents, not always but usually.  Over many generations these changes can add up to very big differences especially since different individuals come into the reproductive line and contribute alleles.  

this is not evolution.  You can't get from one species to another this way, youi can only get variations on the same species this way.  that is because the variations occur within the existintg geness and those casame genes are inherited from generation to generation, only with different varersions of them show ing up in greater or smaller numbers by chance.   

Evoutohnj guys like Dawkins and Coyne talk as if this sort of change is open ended, that it goes beyond the collection of traits belonging to that particular species or organism.  They seem to take it for granted without giving it a second thought.  but how could it?  The change occurs withint he given properties of the genoe, it needs nothing new added to it for the change to occur.  if mutationj should occur, which is the usual idea of how you gent something new, the mutation is a change to the gene that is built into the genome so whatever change the mutation adds stays withint tht genome for tht species or orgnaism and it is a change in a particlar trait, it doesn't change the trait itself, just gives it a diffdfernte color or texture or other characteristic tht pertains onoly to tht trait.  Whatee is already in the genome defines the limit of what sort of characteristics are possible.  It's already there in the genome.  You can't get something brand new tht isn't alreayd potential withinjt he genme.  So it isn't evolution.  You can call it microevolution, or some do, but it isn't evolution, it's merely built in variation, what Mendel showed could make peas with blue flowers or pink flowers, what we all know can make for blue eyes or brown eyes and so on.  It's there already and that is all that is there.

Anher way change is limited to the genome is in the fact that if a particular trait is heavlily selected over many generations it will become genetically fixed or homozygous as one allele will be paired with the same allele and the variant allele will cgradually drop out of the poulation.  When you get a lot of homozygosity, which is what greeders get when they get a purebred animal, which supposedly could also occur in the wild though I think it's really only seen in the cases of bottleneck suck as the cheetah,.  Anywayh this is often the \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Variation, or "efolution" sotops happening when you get homozygosity to a great degree in a population.  So at the point when you are geetting the most well established traits, as in a sdomestic breed, that's when you stop getting vevolution as it were.  Youj can never get outside thegenome.

So, no, evolution does NOt OCCUR, OR AT LEAST THIS IS NO PROOF OF IT.

cO cOYNE'S FIRST OINT IS THAT EVOLUTION OCCURS, THEN HIS SECOND OINT IS THAT IT OCCURS GRANTUALLY, USUALLY, NOT ALWAYS BUT USUALLY, WHICH HE GOES ON TO SAY MEANS THAT YOU DON'T GET A POPULATIO OF DINOCAURS SUDDENLY TURNING INTO TA POPULATION OF BIRDS, IT HAPPENS GRADUALLY OVER LONG PERIODS OF TIME.  

eXCPET IT CAN'T BECUASE DINOCAURS CAN ONLY VARIY ACCORDING TO THEIR DINOSAUR GENOME, THEY CANNOT PRODUCE ANY OF THE TRAITS OF A BIRD THAT ARE NOT ALREADY POSSESS ED BY THEMSELVES AS THEIR OWN TRAITS.   yET cOYNE JUST BLITHLELY CARRIES ON, AS THEY ALL DO, AS IF IT'S JUST A FACT THAT REPTILES GRADUALLY CHANGED INTRO BIRDS OVER TIME.   fUNNY HOW THEY THINK THEY ARE APPEALING TO EVIDENCE.  wHERE IS THE EVIDENCE HERE?

THE HIS POINT THREE IS SPECIATION.  THE BRANCHING OF A SPECIES INTO TWO DIFFERENT SPECIES.   hIS NEXT POINT IS GOING TO BE THT SUCH BRANCHED SPECIES CN TRACE THEIR ANCESTRY BACK TO A COMMON ANCESTOR, REVERSING THIS PICTURE.   

hIS FITH POINT IS THAT NATURAL SELECTION IS WHAT CAUES EVOLUTION, IT'S THE EMCHANISM THAT BRINGS ABOUT THE FITNESS OF THE CREATURE TO THE ENVIRONMENT.

hAVING LISTED THE FIFE POINTS HE CONSIDERS TO BE CONSTITUENTS OF EVOLUTION HE IS NOW GOING TO GO ON TO GIVE THE EVIDENCE FOR THEM.  i CAN HARDLY WAIT.

i THOUGHT HE AS GOING TO GO BCK THROUGH HIS LIST AND START WITH SHOWING EVIDENCE FOR POPULATIONS CHANGING IN SUCH A WAY THAT THEY CAN EVOLVE FROM SPECIES TO SPECIEAS.   wELL, HE GOES INSTEAD TO THE IDEA THT THINGS EVOLVED FROM SIMPLE TO COMPLEX AS SUPPOSEDLY SHOWN IN THE FOSSIL RECORD, WHICN HE CLAIMS IS VERY WELL UNDERSTOOD NOW, THEY KNOW ALL THE DIFFERENT LAYERS AND THEY KNOWN THE DAING OF THEM AND SO ON.  aS FOR EVIDENCE OF SIMPLE TO COMPLEX WELL THAT'S A PRETTY SUBJECTIVE THING BUT IT'S GOOD ENOUVHG FOR HIM APPARENTLY TO DECLARE IT A FACT.  iT ALL JUST looks LIKE WHAT WE WOULDE EXPECT OF THINGS EVOLVING FROM ONE KIND OF CREATURE TO ANOTHER.  jUST LOOKS THTA WAY TO US.  THAT'S SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.  

fROM SHICH HE MAKES THE SUDDEN LEAP TO THE DECLARATION THAT THIS VIOATES THE CLAIM THAT LIVING THINGS WERE ALL MADE AT ONE TIME.   wELL, SURE IT DOES IF IT'S TRUE BUT HE HAS'T REALLY PROVED IT THOUGH HE THINKS HE HAS.   

sO NOW i HAVE TO POINT OUT AGAIN THAT THE LAYERS OF ROCK IN WHICH THE FOSSILS ARE FOUND COULD NOT POSSIBLY EVER HAVE BEEN ON THE EARTHLS SURFACE DURING SOME LONG PERIOD OF MILLIONS OR HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF YEARS, OR EVEN FIVE MINUTES FOR THT MATTER SINCE NOTHING WHTEVER DCOULD LIVE N OR ON SUCH A SURFACE, A HOMOGENEUOUS SLAB OF SEDIMENTARY ROCK STRAIGHT AND FLAT AND IN SOME CASES MANY HUNDREDS OF GFEET THICK COVERING THOUSANDS UPOHN THOUSANDS OF SQUARE MILES, SPANNING CONTINENTS.  i GET THE IMPRESSION THAT THIS FACT HAS NEVER CROSSED THEIR MINDS.  iT ALMOST DIDN'T EVEN CROSS MINE.  NOBODY EVER BRINGS IT UP, EVERYTHING ABOUT HOW THE ROCKS REPRESENT TIME PERIODS IS JUST DECLARED AS FACT AND THEIR PHYSICAL CHARCTERISTICS ARE RDLY CONSIDERED AT ALL.  VERY ODD BEAUSE WHEN YOU DO CONSIDER THEM YOU CAN'T BY ANY AMOUNT OF CLEVER REARANGINGS OF THIGS MAKE THEM FIT INTO THE SCENARIO OF A TIME PERIOD ON PLANET EARTH.  yOU CAN'T.  yOU CAN'T.  IT ISN'T POSSIBLE.  tHOSE ROCKS DO NOT REPRESENT TIME PERIODS.  THEY ARE NOT TIME PERIODS, THERE NEVER WERE ANY TIME PERIODS.  tHOSE ROCKS WERE ALL LAID DOWN BY THE SAME PROCESSES, WHATEVER THOSE PROCESSES WERE, AND MOST PROBABLY ONE AFTER ANOTHER IN A FIARLY SHOT PERIOD OF TIME.  THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT THEM THAT SUGGESTS LONG PERIODS OF TIME OR ANY KIND OF HABITABLE ENVIRONETN WHERE ON LAND OR IN SEA.  tHE Y ARE NOT TIME PERIODS, THEY ARE NOT TIME PERIODS.  THEY ARE ROCKS IN WHICH ARE BURIED BAZILLIONS OF LIVING THINGS FROM SIMPLE TO COMPLEX, FROM SEA CREATURE TO LAND CREATURE.  

tHERE'S ANOTHER WAY OF GOING ABOUT THIS WHICH ISN'T QUITE SO DRASTIC AS THE WHOLE THING COMING DOWN TO A SLAB OF ROCK, AND THAT'S THE IDEA THT EACH TIME PERIOD DID HAVE A NORMAL SURFACE, IN MANY OF THEM IT WAS A SEASCAPE SURFACE, AND THE LAND SURFACES COME KHIGHNER UP IN THE STRATA.  aNYWAY WITH A NORMAL SEA SCAPE THIS ROCK THAT ENDS UP IN THE GEOLOGICAL COLUMN WOULD HAVE BEEN FORMED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA, COLLECTING THE DEAD CREATURES IN IT.  fOR SOME REASON THIS PARTICULAR SEDIENT COMES TO AN END, QUITE STRAIGHT AND FLAT NEVERTHELESS, AND ANOTHER STARTS TO FORM ABOVE IT, AND THIS NEXT ONE FOR SOME REASON CAPTURES A SDIFFERENT SET OF CREATURES THAT APPEAR TO HAVE EVOLVLVED FROM THOSE IN THE EALIER TIME EPPRIOR WITHHICH IS REPRESENTED BY THE SEDIMENTARY ROCK BENAEATH IT.    tHEN THIS NEXT PERIOD COMES TO AN END TAND A NEW SEDIMENTARY DEPOSITION STARTS AON TOP OF THE PREVIOUS ONE, A NEW SEDIMENT AND A NEW COLLECTION OF CREATURES GET BURIED IN IT THT LOOK LIKE THEY EVOLVED FROM THE CREATURES IN THE ROCK NOW BEENEATH IT.  

eVENTUALLY WE START GETTING LANDSCAPES AND NOW IT'S HARDER TO EXPLAIN HOW THE SEDIMENT CONTINUES TO ACCUMULATE AT THE BOTTOM AS ALWAYS, ON TOP OF THE PREVIOUS ROCK, BUT JUST TO LOOK AT THE STRATA YOU HAVE TO CONCLUCE THAT THEY AREWERE ALL FORMED BY THE SAME PROCESSES.  nOW WE'RE GETTING LAND ANIMALS INSTREAD OF SEA CREATURES.

iN THIS SCENARIO AT LEAST THERE IS A LIVING SCPACE FOR THE ANIMALS RATHER THAN JUST WROCK BUT IT STILL DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE THAT IT WOULD ALL COME DOWN IN THE END TO THAT ROCK OAND ONLY THAT ROCK STACKED ON THE ROCKS FROM THE PREVIOUS SIME PERIOD.    aND THERE IS STILL THE QUESTION WHY ON EARTH WOULD TIME ON THIS PLANET SORT ITSELF INTO LAYERS OF ROCK ANYWAY?  wHY WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO IDENTIFY A PARTICULAR ERA OF EVOLUTION BY A PARTICULAR ROCK?  nONE OF THIS MAKES ANY SENSE AT ALL AND YET THEY GO ON TLAKING AS IF IT MAKES SENSE.  

 cOYNE SAYS A LOT MORE THAT i'D LIKE TO THINK ABOUT SO i SUPPOSE i'LL AHVE TO LISTREN TO IT AGAIN AND COME BACK TO IT. bUT THERE ARE A FEW THINGS i CAN TOUGH CH ON AT THIS POINT. 

hE CONSIDERS VESTIGIAL ORGANS TO BE EVIDENCE OF EVOLUTION.  HE DOESN'T USE THE TERM JUNK dna FOR SOME REASON BUT THAT'S WHAT HE SEEMS TO BE TALKING ABOUT WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT BROKEN GENES THT CAN BE SHOWN TO HAVE ONCE CODED FOR A LOST FUCNTION OR VESTIGIAL ORGAN.  hE THINKS CREATIOMNIST CAN'T ACCOUNT FO R THESE THINGS BUT ACTUALLY i THINKI i CAN AND i'VE BEEN SAYING IT FOR YEARS NOW.  wE LIVE IN A FALLEN WORLD, AND EVERYTHING IS DETERIORATING.  oUR BODIES ARE SUBJECT TO ALL KINDS OF DETERIORATION PROCESSES, DISEASES AND DEATH.  iT'S SEEMED TO ME THT WHA TJUNK dna IS IS A RECORD OF MANY FORMER FUNCTIONS THAT WERE POSSESSED BY US BEFORE TEH fALL WHEN WE HAD GREAT STRENGTHS AND POWERS AND PROTECTIONS OF ALL SORTS THAT WE'VE SINCE LOST.  hE MENTIONS THE ABILITY TO MAKE vITAMIN c WHICH MANY ANIMALS HAVE BUT WE DON'T, OUR GENE FOR IT IS BROKEN.  hE ALSO SAYS THAT HUMAN EMBRYOS AT FOUR WEEKS HAVE WHAT LOOKS LIKE A OK SAC ONLY IT'S EMPTY.  hE SAYS THERE ARE THREE GENES, ALL BROKEN, THAT CODE FOR YOKYOYOLK.  iNTERESTING.  sO i'D SAY THAT IS PROBABLY A PROVISION gOD BUILT INTO THE EMBRYONIC STANGE FOR NOURISHING THE NEW BABY THAT SUCCUMBED TO THE DISEASE PROCESS OF THE fALL, MUTATIOHNS BEING A VERY EFFECTIVE TOOL OF THAT DESTRUCTIVE PROCESS.  tHERE ARE MANY THINGS WE SEEM TO BE ABLE TO LIVE WITHOUT THAT NO DOUBT WE'D BE A LOT STRONGER IF WE HAD THEM, WOULD LIVE LONGER AND BE LESS SUSCEPTIBLE TO DISEASES AND ALL THAT.  a YOLK SAC IS PROBABLY ONE OF THOSE PROTECTIVE DEVICES WE NO LONGER HAVE.  

i DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN OUR GETTING A THICK COAT OF HAIR AROUND THE AGE OF SIX MONTHS IN THE WOMB THOUGH.  a GENE GONE CRAZY?  aN ADAPTATION TO THE ICE AGE WE NO LONGER NEED?  nO IDEA REALLY.  oR THE VESTIGIAL LIMBS OF WHALES AND DOPHINS.  bUT i'LL PRAY ABOUT IT.

aPPARENTLY WE ALSO USED TO HAVE MUCH MORE POWERFUJL SMALLING ABILITY AS THAT IS ANOTHER CAPACITY LOST TO BROKEN GENES ACCORDING TO cOYNE.

wHAT HE CALLS EXAMPLES OF BAD DESIGN, OR MAHY OF THEM ANYWAY, ARE ALSO EXPLAINABLE IN TERMS OF LOST FUNCTIONS DUE TO THE fALL.  iT'S REALLY TOO BACD THAT SOME CREATIONJIST APPARENTLY DON'T THINK OF THIS WORLD AS FALLEN, SO THEY ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR PERFECT DESIGN AND THAT SORT OF THING, BUT THIS WORLD IS FAR FAR FAR FROM THE PERFECTIONS OF THE ORIGINAL CREATED WORLD AND THT  FACT SHOULD EXPLAIN A LOT OF THINGS THAT OTHERWISE EVOLUTION EXPLAINS BWETTER.  

mA6YBE THAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH THE EXAMPLE HE GIVES OF THE OCEANIC ISLANDS WHICH MADE NO SENSE TO ME AT ALL.  i CAN'T SEE HOW CREATIONISM HAS ANY HARDER TIME EXPLAINING THAT SOME KINDS OF ANIMSAL WOULD BE FOUND ON DISTANT ISLANDS RATHER THAN OTHER KIDNS.  THERE IS NO REASON TO THINK EVOLUTIONH EXPLAINS THAT BETTER AT ALL.

Crumble crumble crash crash boom

A few hours ago, in the middle of the night, maybe three am or so,  I heard awoman call in to the late night talk show to talk about how here little town has been overrun by illegal immigrants, that they are visible all over town , they are often seen at the DMV where a family member went recently can came back with a form that was all about how to register to vote, also reporting that he'd been asked th\\\\

ree times by one DMV worker Wouldn't he prefer to register as a Democrat.  

the twon is about thirty miles from where I live I know it well I lived there myself for years and the bottom dropped out of my stomach hearing how real all this has become that we're all worried about, how real and close to home.And more aggressive and well organized thatn I had any idea, local people apaprently involved in furthering this travesty of ...  well, it's an invasion of America isn't it.  We've been hearing about it, it's one of many ways they are bringing down the country around us for years now, speeding up in recent times.  We know it's happening, it makes us nervous, those of us who are patying attention anyway, hwho listen to thre right sources anyway, but at least for me the reality of it I just heard about came as a ral shock.

I don't want to cry about these things but this made me cry.  I don't want to cry because I think I'd never stop and it gives me a headache and clogs up my head and accomplishes nothing anyway.  Local people are invovled in furtherinjg this nightmare.  Atgain, local people are involved in furthering this nightmare.  It's well organized.

And so of course is the manipulating of the upcoming election.  Yes I still hope and pray for Trump to win but at the same time I know how efficient the Left is at manipulating things to give thesmelves all the power.  And the lies, the lies I've been hearing from the Democrat candidates I can hardly believe a human being could be so brazen but they are.  She is.  Amazing lies, preteniding to support the policies of the opposition as if they are her won of all things, tyring to sound like a real American instead of the COmmuist she is, the San Francisco leftis antiAmerican she is, the lies alone are repeated fists in the stomach.  

And just yesterday I talked to some one about the political situation just briefly with whom I'd never touched on such a subject before and found out that she knows absolutely nothing about anything.  She thingks Oh politics, both sides do the same thnings, the differences aren't really any big deal, she doesn't like Trump's personatliy, she believes all the lies about him . djr nr;orbrd s;; yjr    she believes all the letgal battles against Trump prove he's guilgty of criminal acts, it wouldn't occur to her to equestion any of it, and of course it adds to her antipathy to him.  But she doesn't really pay much attention to politics at all anyway.  

Well, we're doomed.  

I'm not giving up but I'm afraid the signs are that we are indeed doomed.  And again I come back to the recognition that the nation is under god's judgmetn.  In fact foreigners moving into the country and taking things over and pushing the citizens asicde is one of the judgments listed in Levitical   Leviticus twenty six and Deuteronomy I think Nine wher eGod spells out the blessings and cursings He will bring on Israel depending on their obedienct tot He Lawsk, which they have agreed to obey.  Well, Isreal in the OT is in man;y ways intended as a model for us to learn from, so applying that leist of curses to us is warranted since we have cerrtatainly violated god's law ourselves.  Even thrown out the ten Commandments.  Lovelyh. 

So I'm come back to wondering what is the right way to respond to God's judgment.  Is fighting it always the rwrong thing to do?  Scripture seems to say sometimes no, sometimes yes.  

I don't want to see America go down .  I want the liberals who don't know anything to learn something, I want them to be educated, to learn that they've been believing lies, to to learn what America was originalloy designed to be, which has been getting lost chunk by chunk for decades now.  Such efforts can't be wrong but they may be futile.  \

And I'mm  I'm gback to hoping for the Rapture to happen soon.  Unfortunately Watchman Nee said not all Christianits will be in the Rapture, an I think he meant true Christans, and of course tht shakes me iup quite a bit.  We're taught that only unbelievers which includes people who think they are Christians but are notm  not, wikll be left behind.  Then Nee had to come along and suggest that even a true Christian might be left behind if we are atnot living up to our calling.    OSO on top of everything else I've go tthat to worryabotu.  Also on top of the knowldge that my own family includes many who are not Christians at all and will have to live through the last days on planet Erath in any case, which is going to be the most horrific time anyhone has ever ad to live through .  

But t least after all that Jesus will come back and I hope they will get saved even during all that horror.  

I ammay get a second wind as it were.  That happens.  I get discouragesd and then I revive.  I don't know how it's going to go this time.  Just that at the moment I want to be Raptured out of here.

Restoring america

Marxism is the perrect weapon for destroying everything tht made America great, for tearing down its Christian base and its institutional structures, its economic foundations and all of it.  It couldn't have been better deasigned for that purpose.

And yet Mar xism is thritiving in the  Democratic Party and if the current candidates for that party win it will be enacted against our fragile nation with a furty that will leave nothing standing.   this is what you are voting for you liberals, wehter you know it or not, in your irrational hatred of Donald Trump wyou are bringing down your own culture \.

I do like that Jordan peterson and Ayaan Hirsi Ali seem to be getting this much about the problem we are faing though I don't think they've come up with  much of  solution to it.  I just jlike that she particularly aims at Restoration even in th title of her Substack site.  Glad there are people  thinkig long these lines adn of course they aren't the only ones, I hear from people on the radio every day who are strenouuously working to save the nation.   It's frustrating though because the liberals aren't listening and if they\\\\\\\\\\ we need them to see that they are believing lies so that they can join in the cause.  How ever many of them there are who would be shocked at the lies if they saw them and I know there are many of them though scertaily not the whole population of them.  enogh at least to make a big difference I wuld hope.  But getting the word to them is just about impossiblbele.  In my experience any attempt to start a conversation about the important issues is just shut down by them immediately, don't want to talk about it, too incendiary or something.   Well NOT talking bout it is incendiary in a worse way I'm afraid, burning down the society we live in.

 Marxism has to bgo and Christianity has to be recovered and the whole conceptual framework of the Consitutuioal founding of the nation, preerably with the Christian mentality of all the colonies introduced into it that were fraudulaently left out of it.  that in fact is probably the achilles heel that is allowing Marxism to bring us down, tht even our founders set isus off on the wrong track despite the wonderfully powerful goverment they crafter for us at the same time.

I can bleat all I want out here in my little corner of cyber space and nobody will hear though.   Are we going down for good?  I mean of course for bad, for evil.  I don't know how to stop it.  Does anybody?

Prayer done right, to the Christian God and njot to any pagan gosds, is really our best hope.

A Leftover Bit of Geological Evidence Against the Theory of Evolutio

 Going back to a post to include somjething I left out isn't easy when it's been some time seince the post ws writen so I'm going to put here as a separate post just one small point I left out of the discussion of gthe geological evidences against evolution.

It's all about observing the physical facts about the strata or layers of sedimentary rocks found all over the world, in which the fossils are buried that are used to prove the idea of a fossil record of evolution from simple to complex.    The strata themselve sare physical structures you can see and think about in terms of their phyhsical properties, but oddly enough that isn't much done that I can see by those who use them to prove an Old Earth and evolution through the fossil record.

I've made the point that they lie flat and straight across thousands of scquare miles which alone makes them useless as a representative of time periods since nothing could live on such a landscapte>  first it has to be recorniizesd as a landscape, that that is what is implied by their use as markers for time periods of millions of years.  theyh are rocks, they are of one sediment, they can't represent anything that was ever the surface of this earth.

Second I've made the point that they lie undisturbed in thier original horizontal form from bottom to top, just a placid stack of sedimentary rocks one on top of another.  What this shows is that they can't be time periods on the usrface of the earth becaucause this planet is known to be very active with weathering and earthquakes and fovolcanoes and so on and so forther.  Ther is no sigh of any such activity within the strata themselves aywhere.  All that activity doews up acting UPON the strata whether in small or large chunks, as those forces batter and break and tilt and twist them .  All as a unit, however large the broken unit may be.  the Greand Canyon experienced none of that, only the pushing up of the land underneath which cut the canyon itself as I uinterpret it, but the upheaval wasn't enough of a jolt to break up the strata for at least the depth of a mile.  

Now I want to point out just one liettle proof that the earth is not old by looking at the strata:  that is that these layered walls wherever you find them, erode and conllect the products of the erosion at their bbase.  You see this in the grand Canyon where the walls are all skirted at the bottom by such debris.  And in Monument Valley where the huge buttes called Monuments also are surrounded at their bases by such skirts of debris.  These skirts as I'm calling them, although I know there is a scientific terms for them that I can't remember right now, should be a measure ot he time that has elapsed since the monument began to exist.  They've been eroding since all the other layers once part of were washed away and they were left standing alone on top of one of those layers that stayed intact.  For some reason hunks of the layers were left standing as those monyuments.  The same happened in South America on an even grander scale in the "tepui: gigantic buttes of a mile in thickness and fairly broad too, five of them in Venezuela as I recall, all made of sandstone in that case.  They o must have such skirts collected around them as they've been eroding since they were carved out of the totality of the staraa and left standing separately there.

You'd think, and this is my oint, that if the Earth were really millions of years old, or billions, that theyse strata which in conventiaonal time analysises go back hundreds of millios of years, might ave eroded away down to nothing but dust, not merely accumulated these fairly substantial but nevertheless pretty paltry piles of debris around their bse.   Millions of years for such a tiny bit of accumulated erosion?  I think they've veven made some measurements of the rate at which the erosion occurs but I don't know the numbers, it just seems pretty obvious that hundreds of millions of years of erosion would have made a much larger pile and in  fact would have completely obliterated the structures from which it is falling.  

A few thousand years perhaps?
