Given the context of our core accretion model and the evidence of the destruction and decay of planet Earth we may deduce that the curse that God placed upon the ground was nuclear decay.
Cursed Earth
Mesozoic/Middle Noachian (Inundation)
Meso- means middle. Clearly something is different about Mesozoic sediment compared to Paleozoic and Cenozoic. Paleozoic was the deluge. Mesozoic was the period of time when the water remained high on the Earth.
Eras, Periods and Epochs
The Geological Timescale is split into fours Eras. These are broadly obvious from significant transitions between sequences of sedimentary formations. The Precambrian is obviously very different to everything above it.
The Timeline for Noah’s Flood
The timeline for Noah's flood comes directly from scripture and this is the framework that we use to interpret evidence from the stratigraphic column.
Advances and Retreats of Continental Ice Sheets
"Several advances and retreats of continental ice sheets, accompanied by some elevation of continents and draining of major synclines." There used to be an ice age 10,000 years ago, but THE NARRATIVE became murky and confusing.
Precise Timing of Noah’s Flood
The Hagerman horse quarry fossils allow us deduce the time of year of Noah's flood: late winter/early spring. Genesis says it was the second month, the seventeenth day of the month. In our calendar: February 17.
Climatic Cooling
The wind which came after Noah's flood evaporated the waters and caused global cooling, leading to polar and equatorial glaciation. Evidence of equatorial glaciation is assigned to the Permian.
Continental Uplifts and a Major Orogeny
How do we account for fossils when the fossils are older than the geographic features that they’re part of? “Marked world-wide continental uplifts and a major orogeny resulting in the rise of the Alps.“
Magnoliaceae, Lauraceae and Juglandaceae
"Angiosperms having affinities with Magnoliaceae, Lauraceae, Juglandaceae". This may seem random but it's nuanced evolution narrative, you just have to know something about the development of Angiosperms.
Trend From Temperate Climates to Subtropical
"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.
