Pleistocene Salton Sea Geology

Image
The Salton Sea is one of the few ancient Cenozoic lakes which are remnants of the worldwide flood after it receded from the land in 2348 BC. Then again after the Flood, in the days of Peleg about 1900 BC, there was another shower of asteroids causing a second worldwide earth upheaval, with volcanic eruptions and orogenies (mountain building mega-earthquakes) caused the mountain ranges to form, volcanic eruptions, and megatsunamis waves impacted the coasts worldwide traveling inland for hundreds of miles. Faults caused huge inland lakes to breach their dams and flood areas where faults formed runoff passageways. to the oceans. Large deposits of large terrestrial mammals, marine, and freshwater fossil deposits were formed in mudstone, sand, gravel, caves, bogs, asphalt seeps, sandstone, and shale. Most of these fossils are not petrified like those in the Flood and contain no dinosaurs. https://youtu.be/UWmbjdjuMC0

Millions of Years to Build Mountains?

Ancient-Origens.org had an article on the Appalachian Mountins: " The Appalachian Orogeny is one of the geological mountain building events that created the Appalachian Mountains. This orogeny occurred about 325 million years ago and was caused by Africa colliding with North America at a time when these continents did not exist in their current forms. It applied massive stress on what is today the Eastern Seaboard of North America, forming a wide and high mountain chain. The Appalachians likely once reached elevations similar to those of the Alps, Andes, and the Rocky Mountains before they were eroded down to what they are today. The Appalachian Mountains are some of the oldest mountains in the world. Age of the Mammals About sixty-six million years ago, the Appalachian Mountains had been eroded to an almost flat plain. It was not until the region was uplifted during the Cenozoic Era (sixty-five million years ago to the present) that the distinctive topography of the Appalachia...

Flat Earth?

Joe Taylor on Facebook: . The FLAT EARTH. AiG, scientist, Danny Faulkner, just wrote a lengthy article explaining why he believes the earth is not flat. Rob Skiba and Jered Chrestman have pretty well-thought out reasons why they think it is. Before you dismiss either, look at their positions.   MaryAnn Stuart on Auldaney Facebook: It's really simple. When people think of the word "flat", they are thinking of a pancake or a piece of paper with edges that one can fall off of. There is another meaning for "flat" that is more Biblical. Think of the Great Plains or a flat field as op posed to the foot hills and high peaks of the Rockies. In other world, many suspect (without using the word "flat") that the earth had a "smoother" surface topography before the Flood. Many suspect that the high mountains did not exist until during the Flood or shortly after. When I think of a flat earth, I am thinking of a glode whose surface was ...
