Heavy Rainfall

Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.

(Genesis 7:17) NKJV

Heavy rainfall“. How about that? 40 days and nights to be exact. Some things are so obvious that they can’t be disguised as anything else. Usually Paleodoublespeak is used, this time there’s no reason to.

Lemurs and Birds

For the king’s ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Hiram. Once every three years the merchant ships came, bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and monkeys.

(2 Chronicles 9:21) NKJV

“First lemurs; some modern groups of birds.” Modern is a concept in the evolution narrative. The Paleocene is recent, therefore according to the narrative anything different about it can be called modern. It’s meaningless.

Trend From Temperate Climates to Subtropical

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

(Genesis 7:11) ESV

Trend from temperate climate to subtropical“. That sounds suspiciously like a way to say that it started raining a lot. “Some seasonal variations“. No kidding. It started raining, then it stopped raining.

The Theory of Noah’s Flood

The word of the Lord came again to me, saying: “Son of man, when a land sins against Me by persistent unfaithfulness, I will stretch out My hand against it; I will cut off its supply of bread, send famine on it, and cut off man and beast from it. Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver only themselves by their righteousness,” says the Lord God.

(Ezekiel 14:12-14) NKJV

We have a collection of predictive testable hypotheses which authenticate physical evidence of Noah’s flood with the account in scripture. In science a collection of hypotheses which support a premise is called a theory.

A World-wide Anoxic Event

For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

(1 Peter 3:18-20) NKJV

Anoxic means without Oxygen. All around the world we see contemporaneous evidence of a mass extinction of marine life caused by the depletion of oxygen in the water.

Iridium abundance maxima in the Upper Cenomanian extinction interval

Two iridium abundance peaks, both 0.11 ppb (whole‐rock basis) over local background of 0.017 ppb, have been found in Middle Cretaceous marine rocks near Pueblo, Colorado. They occur just below the 92‐million‐year‐old Cenomanian‐Turonian (C‐T) stage boundary.

Cenomanian-Turonian

And all flesh died that moved on the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man. All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died. So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive. And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.

(Genesis 7:21-24) NKJV

A world-wide anoxic extinction event above the Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary is a logical outcome of the worlds ecosystems decomposing in the waters of Noah’s flood.

The Duration of Noah’s Flood

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

(Genesis 7:11) KJV

And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and indeed the surface of the ground was dry. And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dried.

(Genesis 8:13-14) NKJV

We need to understand where the Iridium anomaly is found in the stratigraphic column as compared to the sequence of Noah’s flood that we can deduce from the sedimentary evidence.
