"Let's say that I do not consider much of what Fisher has
presented as solid evidence, though he has done a lot of homework. Maybe
it was a lot of cut and paste work. Maybe you and Helen think Fisher's
material was another nail in the lid of the flood coffin, but I do not."

Well, of course you don't. If you took the material as
representing conclusively what it so clearly does, it pushes the flood
out into fanatasy land, as it absolutely could not have happened.

As for the cut and paste, well, it's called attributing sources
and, when I don't really have anything to add, just letting the source
speak for itself.

And since I also give full attributions, you know right where to
go look to verify I'm not selectivelty quoting or quoting out of context
or making unjustified leaps of inference.

The paleo-indian data utterly refutes the very possibility of
any global flood.

The long history of Egypt coupled with the long history of human
occupation in India utterly refutes any large scale flood in the Middle
Eastern region. The problem of the Empire of Sargon overlapping most
times normally attributed to the flood is just icing on the cake.

The isochron data as layed out with extensive detailing of the
reference data used in its construction utterly refutes any possibility
of continental zip--either the "creation scientists" version which
occurs during the flood as some sort of direct consequence thereof, or
one in which it occurs later for no apparent reason at all. And neither
scenario posits a plausable mechanism for continents to move so fast.


As for going to the moon---that's an engineering problem, not a
scientific one.

Ya'll might want to try and understand the difference.

Ciao.
