[asa] The Flood/Creation and Evolution - A Lay Pastor's Perspective

First, a question and a comment about "the flood":

Ah yes, The Flood. Perhaps you can explain...

Also, I would like to see an explanation for the lack of flood
sediments and erosion at the accepted date of 2350 BC.

At this date we have a lot of archaeological evidence, but no
evidence of such a flood. We have sites in the western US which
cross-cut this time period, with continuity of native culture, mtDNA,
artifact styles, fauna and flora, soil deposition, etc. Where is the
evidence for a flood?

Particularly telling is a continuity of mtDNA from a site in southern
Alaska dated about 10,000 to living descendants in California.

To argue against the scientific data which fails to support the
flood, you have to toss a huge percentage of all knowledge out the
window. For example, geology would have to go, as would biology,
archaeology, sedimentology, genetics, and a bunch more.

(We'll be back in the Stone Age pretty quickly at that rate. Whoops,
no. The Stone Age would have to go too. Its too old.)
