It has to do with geological occurrences and events recorded (documented) in myth and legend, empirical observation that is now coded in cultural perspective.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644183700798263875.post-5094575418318613802012-11-15T06:52:38.014-05:002012-11-15T06:52:38.014-05:00This controversy is due to the common fact that an...This controversy is due to the common fact that any natural scientist (biologists, geologists, ecologists, paleontologists)he can not convince any religious fanatic, but the opposite is true, any religious fanatic he can not convince any natural scientist, since they are based on different and opposing interpretations of all naturalistic observations. Any scientific interpretation of an observable fact is based in one approach naturalist, materialist and rationalist, while one fanatical interpretation is based in one approach supernaturalist,inmaterialist and irrationalist.<br /><br />Astuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15478647821446061278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644183700798263875.post-67226803495305243342012-08-02T16:20:03.505-04:002012-08-02T16:20:03.505-04:00You are vindicated per first amendment.

You are one of the good ones in that you do accept alternate opinions.<br /><br />As to Flood geology being utter BS, I know better because I have been in the field studying sedimentary rocks since I was a child. I am amazed you have read the work of these people and continue to adhere to some kind of uniformitarian/local catastrophic view. As an amateur geologist/paleontologist for about 52 years now, I have found so many formations and fossils that completely support a huge Flood and post-Flood scenario that your viewpoint astonishes me. But it is America and I thank you for valuing the First Amendment on your blog!radarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08009074315229001910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644183700798263875.post-8624367444775920432012-08-02T01:21:07.216-04:002012-08-02T01:21:07.216-04:00I know all about "creation geology" and ...I know all about "creation geology" and have extensively read Steve Austin (Stuart Nevins), Tas Walker, Henry and John Morris, Duane Gish, Ken Ham, etc. (see other blog posts).<br /><br />Creation geology is, in a word, complete and utter bullshit. It in no way reflects what the real world looks like out there. It only appeals to people who have little to no knowledge of geology and are blinded by a religious ideology that requires a literal reading of Genesis.Steven Schimmrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055292815320443096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644183700798263875.post-88144787616711980272012-08-02T01:17:57.724-04:002012-08-02T01:17:57.724-04:00I don't block comments simply for disagreeing....I don't block comments simply for disagreeing.

On my blog I let all people comment and only block bad language.

If you really want to know what Creation Geology looks like, research Tasman Walker or Steve Austin just for a start. The standard geological column posted in textbooks and taught to school children is found in less than 1% of the world and certainly is not uniform anywhere in the world. The real world of geology involves massive sedimentary rock formations that can span continents and show all the signs of water formation and in many places far too massive to ascribe to local flooding. <br /><br />Geomythology is the idea that the sedimentary rocks were laid down over millions of years. Layers out of order, cross-bedding, polystrates, megabreccias and other evidence that points to the Flood are conveniently ignored or explained away with arguments that will satisfy those not aware of what is actually out there in the field. So really you are the geomythologist. But you do take fantastic pictures!radarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08009074315229001910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644183700798263875.post-51425764243916035682011-06-17T14:05:35.762-04:002011-06-17T14:05:35.762-04:00I'm enjoying these posts on Geomythology!I'm enjoying these posts on Geomythology!Adrienne Mayornoreply@blogger.com
