quote:
"Dr. Andrew Snelling, a geologist who works for Answers in Genesis, "[said] that the intact skeleton of this allosaur is a testimony to an extremely rapid burial, which is confirmation of the global catastrophe of a Flood a few thousand years ago," according to the museum."



Suck on this, non-believers. There is no other explanation for this well-conserved skeleton than a flood. Quicksand, mudslides, swamps, lakes and tides don't exist. And from the way it died, we can deduce the time of death. Case closed.

1. Considering that the previous YEC explanation for dismembered fossils

was the violence of the flood waters ...

2. Oh, huh

3. Stupid answers to scientific discovery

is no big deal. There are lots of people who dream little dreams and do experiments in their mind.

The problem is...

He has an audience.

And that audience won't listen to any analysis that does not include their myth.

4. So, all the carnivore teeth they found around it...

.... from carnivores trying to eat the corpse....must be from Noah's family.

6. From what I've heard

They say it's for slicing fruit and veggies. I'm not kidding.

5. It makes perfectly good sense to me.

But did he really say "a few thousand years ago"? I think that Jesus was supposed to have walked the earth "a few thousand years ago". And if I am correct, the Flood was waaayyyyy before that.

I makes me embarrassed that this guy is a "geologist".

7. It's over 9000!

Well they only have about 6000 years to play with in their book. So yeah. In his mind it's only a few 1000 years ago for pretty much anything.
