Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
(Isaiah 5:20) NKJV
“Origin of reptiles, diversification of amphibians. Insects abundant.” Here we can see how doublespeak is used to establish the premise that the evolution narrative envisions the development from simple to complex.
We haven’t seen Reptiles in the stratigraphic column until now. Therefore, according to the evolution narrative, they must be an evolutionary advancement compared to the Amphibians. The problem, is that this is now used as indicator to help us to decide what’s Mississippian and earlier, vs. Pennsylvanian and later. It’s a microcosm of self-fulfilling prophecy, also known as circular reasoning.
In every case however the evidence is of ecosystems, animal and plant communities, which have been violently destroyed by a catastrophe. It’s not the origin of reptiles, it’s the death of millions of reptiles. There isn’t a diversification of amphibians but a mass extinction of amphibians. There isn’t an abundance of insects because they’re all dead and buried. It’s popular science doublespeak (SciPop).
Paleodoublespeak
| Reality – Light and Truth | Darkness and Evil – Paleoenvironment |
| Death | Origin |
| Destruction | Formation |
| Mass Extinction | Diversification |
| Eradication | Abundant |
| Extinction | Rise |
| World-wide flood | Continued inundation of low-lying continents |
| Continued inundation of embayments and synclines | |
| Extensive inundation of continents | |
| Heavy rainfall and aridity | |
| Low lying continents with some epicontinental flooding | |
| Warm, epicontinental seas |
On one hand SciPop wants us to believe that there’s no evidence for a world-wide flood in the time of Noah. On the other hand almost the entire surface of the Earth’s landmasses are covered to varying degrees by sediment which contains the fossilized remains of past life. How do we know what to believe?
The only thing that we can do is trust the Lord. Here at Matty’s Paradigm we use Principle I: God can’t lie and the Bible is true. If the Bible tells us that there was a world-wide flood then we don’t worry about what SciPop has to say about it. We look at primary sources of evidence.
What’s truth and light? Noah’s flood. What’s darkness and evil? The geological timescale and the fabricated narrative of an evolutionary origin of humanity.

August 11th – Pennsylvanian
The premise that Noah’s flood didn’t happen is needed to establish the timescale for biological evolution. However, the evidence clearly shows that Noah’s flood happened.
