There are many, many other impossibilitissues associated with the Genesis flood story, but the biggest unanswered question is where is the sediment layer?
who says? The d-bags who study localized floods? people who study tsunamis? What do all floods have in common (except a global flood)???
A body of water moves to a previously dry area, and along the way picks up and deposits a sedimentary flood layer. why? because a body of water over takes dry land in a localized area. This would be like busting open you above ground pool and it washing all your stuff into your neighbors back yard.
So how does a global flood differ?
No one body of water over takes localized dry land. Water does not rush in from one direction and carries and push your crap to another.
No the ground (all of it) pukes up water. this is more like being on a boat that takes 40 Days and 40 nights to sink. Very little was move or destroyed, why? the water did not come in and wash everything out, it slowly crept up till the world was full
The titanic sank in hours and their are pictures of dinner plates/china still in their cuboards, of all sorts of things not nailed down remaining undisturbed why? Because in those parts of the ship water did not rush in, it crept in and filled/ stabilized everything when it did.
That is why your sediment argument does not apply. It does not account for the conditions set fourth by the account. The sediment argument pushes or rather forces the idea the flood happened like a tsunami nothing in the bible remotely records that.
what else you got?
