Subject: The GAP theory could be true. |
Bible Note: If the pitch, i.e. petroleum, is from a catastrophe, heat and pressure from the earth pressing down, and you say that the flood was the catastrophe; how did Noah get the pitch before it happened? Petroleum doesn't form over night and come up to the surface from better then a mile down; and for starters how did it get down that far in order to turn the organic mater into pitch? How long of a time span have we from Adam to Noah? We have records of geological structures that have been around longer then that time span and there isn't six thousand feet of earth over them, and it's for sure the flood couldn't have done it. I think we better look for another catastrophe like an asteroid massive volcanoes or something, I don't know. Hence the gap! |
