No telling what they'll take oyster shells in the middle of Texas to be the proof of. We find coral around St. Louis routinely. The middle of the US used to be a shallow sea. I love giving chunks to my cousins and explaining where it comes from. 
See with an asshole like Dripshit who thinks the world is 6,000 years old there is no room for plate tectonics in his rather pathetic view of the world.
It also helps that he's as dumb as a bag of cunt hair.  (April 3, 2017 at 2:14 pm)Gawdzilla Sama Wrote:(April 3, 2017 at 1:56 pm)Rhondazvous Wrote: Seashells on a mountaintop?

It's likely a majority of what's above sea level now was underwater - at some time in Earth's history. We have evidence of many types of mollusks, including bivalves, cephalopods, and gastropods from the Cambrian (half a billion years ago, give or take a few dozen million). Most of the mountain ranges on Earth are younger than that, much younger. The dry surface of Earth has changed substantially in that time, no goddamned global flood needed.

The Earth began as a ball of molten rock. Not until it became cooler and larger did it have enough mass/gravity to keep an ocean on its surface.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Rhonda, I haven't looked in the plate tectonics for the various US mountain ranges. I do know that we have hundreds of feet of limestone here. And limestone is made up of:

The critters are/were microscopic and we build buildings out of their remains.

That's not a mountainside, it's a cut for a highway. Just plain old Missouri hills just like those in the near ground and far distance. The Ozark Mountains are mostly limestone, IIRC.
Same with the Adirondacks.
http://www.lakegeorgeguide.com/regional-...ack-rocks/ Quote: Limestones are formed in only 2 ways; either by the chemical precipitation of calcium carbonate from warm sea water, or by the accumulation of shell material from marine organisms. On top of the limestone are formed shales and siltstones which are up to 1200 feet thick. The layered rocks found above these are believed to be accumulations of airborne volcanic ash and dust In any case, "god" is not one of the two ways!
