The present.
God creates
the universe, time, the galaxies, the stars, the solar
system, the earth, dinosaurs, all other animal kinds,
all plants, one man and one woman in week one of the
creation 6,000 years ago in approximately 4,004 BC.
Exactly 1,656
years later, the global catastrophic Flood of Noah occurs,
in 2,348 BC. It lasts just over one year and kills all people
and all land-dwelling, air-breathing animals that were outside
the Ark. Breeding pairs of dinosaurs were on the Ark with
all other kinds of living and now extinct animal breeding
pairs. It was not a local flood.
The occurrence
of a global flood is equivalent to earth being young because
the evolutionist’s main philosophical assumption in all
their “dates” is that the earth has never experienced a
global catastrophe and particularly not a global flood …
The Flood waters
were primarily subterranean waters – “the fountains of
the great deep” and not rain. The Flood waters and
associated tectonic upheaval totally reshape the surface
of the Earth, form the present mountain ranges including
the Himalayas, and form the Grand Canyon, and the continents
rapidly split apart from what is now the base of the Mid-Atlantic
Ridge. The global Flood forms the one-mile thick sedimentary
layer all over the Earth. This rapidly hardens into rock
because of cementing agents in the highly permineralised,
highly pressurised and hot subterranean waters of the Flood
(hydrothermal water), having killed and entombed the dead
animals, plants and people that are trapped in it, and who
rapidly become fossilised or turn to oil and coal. The northern
mammoths are frozen and killed by suffocation and crushing
by the fall-out from the now super-chilled, muddy “fountains
of the great deep” that had jetted high above the stratosphere
at the start of the global Flood. Coal and oil start to
form worldwide from the dead remains, salt domes start forming
and the process of liquefaction vertically sorts the sediments
and the contents of the newly-formed global fossil record.
Every time you fill up your car with petrol, you are filling
up with the dead remains of people, plants and animals killed
in the global Flood of Noah …
“Cute Ark” versus
the Biblical Ark : The capacity of the Biblical Ark was
vast : it was 450 feet long, 45 feet high and 75 feet wide.
In terms of its cargo capacity, how many people, each weighing
100 kg, could Noah’s Ark have carried ? Would the answer
be 150 people, 1,500 people, 15,000 people or 150,000 people
? The cargo capacity of Noah’s Ark was 15,000 tons. This
means Noah’s Ark could have carried 150,000 people each
weighing 100 kilograms …
The Ark needed
at most only 16,000 individual animals, namely a breeding
pair of the approximately 8,000 required air-breathing,
land-dwelling animal kinds (i.e. mammals, birds, some
reptiles and some amphibians) plus their food for one year.
Whales were not required on Noah’s Ark as they could
survive in the waters of the global Flood without drowning
! Were dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark ? Yes. What is the average
size of a dinosaur found in the fossil record ? About the
size of a sheep or a small cow. And there were only 20 to
30 kinds (or genera) of dinosaur despite the overly-many
“species” names that are given to dinosaur remains.
The median size
of the animals on the Ark has been calculated by biologists
as being smaller than a sheep so the Ark would probably
have been 2/3rd empty ... There are no logistical
problems for 8 people to care for, feed and maintain these
16,000 animals for one year in the emergency floating shelter
of Noah’s Ark.
Noah, his family
and the animal breeding families disembark from the Ark
in the 17,000 feet tall Ararat mountain range in Armenia,
eastern Turkey. They spread out across the planet and rapidly
repopulate the world in the 4,350 years since the global
Flood. Many kinds, genera and species of animal and plant
have since become extinct, including most or all of the
large dinosaurs (diplodocus, T-rex, stegosaurs,
etc.) as well as the dodo, the carrier pigeon, mammoths
and many species of ape.
