Yes I agree, God brought a global flood that destroyed all land animals.

Yes...
First, what's your source for stating that it flows uphill (which is one word not two) Are you simply repeating what some other wrong person told you
Here are two VERY big holes in your story
1) If all this water flooded the area all at once, it would not have dug a canyon but instead washed out most of the landscape
2) Most of the rock in the Grand Canyon is mostly made up of Granite and other hard sedimentary rocks. You can not cut a canyon with a whole lot of water going through it all at once.
Here's an experiment even you can try, go out side and dump a bathtub full of water on the sidewalk and see if you get a mini grand canyon.
For those who are interested in learning the truth refer to the links below.
Addendum:
It says a lot about you when you state "By the way don't check your encyclopedia listen and try to under stand yourself."
So we shouldn't review the validated material but just go on instinct?
Oh and the word understand is one word not two...

I agree with you. The Grand Canyon is mostly sandstone and it is very soft if a river or something small were to cause that erosion it would have taken out everything and left flat areas, the only logical explanation is that large amounts of water traveled quickly and then dissipated almost immediately. I live in Southern California and other geologic evidence in my local area also confirms your conclusions. I work in the geologic field of mining so I have a great understanding of my local area.
I think this is like the global warming argument. The globe has been heating and cooling since the beginning this can be completely attributed to solar activity. We have only been keeping track of these things for a short period of time and no one alive today was around for the flood. When the earth gets to hot and we have to move to mars then everyone will know the truth.

The Grand canyon was formed millions of years ago at the end of an ice age - the receeding ice carved it out, along with the action of the Colorado river - which still flows through the Grand Canyon today. As for a great flood, there is geological and historical evidence of one. Plus every major religeon refrences one - not just the bible.

Dear volley ball: I am not a fundamentalist nor a traditionalist, but I am a non-denominational Christian. Before I accepted Jesus as my chosen Teacher, I spent five years in the library in self-study to make decisions about the Ancient history and Eras of our beginnings and the time of Christ on earth.
I am not using an encyclopedia, but I wanted you to know that during that intensive study, I read some books by Scholars and Archaeologists. I can no longer recall which particular book it was, but it said, Archaeologists had proven that a flood of the most major proportions had occurred in the Middle East region. They knew this as fact - since in the digging and excavating down to the deepest levels they needed to achieve, they found the "signs" of such in the layers of sediment accumulated over the ages. However, they said, the flood did NOT cover all the earth ! It was a much smaller area than described in the Bible ; yet - an area large enough to have caused the destruction to life described. Since I can no longer recall the book, exactly, that it was in - I have decided to offer to you the ones I went through during that brief period when I read specifically on Archaeology. Here they are: Archaeology in Biblical Research (1965 ) by Walter G. Williams. Also, Prophets, Idols, & Diggers by John Elder. And, Gods, Graves & Scholars by C. W. Ceram.
You see, what they found and could verify shows some of what the Bible speaks of, but not entirely how the Bible described it. Close, but not quite. The flood was large in size, for a given area, and it was of such depth that as it sunk into the earth - the signs it left were obvious in layered sediments. No rivers were in that area of digging. It's very interesting. Sediments occur in each layer of earth that accumulates throughout the ages. The ages are like a building block stacked one on top of the other. This is the best I, a layman, can describe it.
Also, in one of those books, it is mentioned that a German Archaeologist and his Team did discover remnants of an Ark. The German Archaeologist's name was pronounced something like "Schlieman." Haven't correct spelling.
I checked the Los Angeles Public Library and found that they no longer have the first book mentioned ! Perhaps, it can be found in a University Library or in a School of Archaeology on campus. The library DID still have Prophets, Idols & Diggers by John Elder - and also, they DID still have Gods, Graves & Scholars by C. W. Ceram. Perhaps it is in one of these.

Are you saying that the Grand Canyon was formed in a few months by a flood? That's insane. It takes moving water millions of years. As for no erosion in areas, there was movement of the land mass due to earthquakes.

A flash flood doesn't have the capability to do something like the grand canyon. Yes, one can destroy buildings and wash away trees and such, but something on the scale of the grand canyon then I'd say no. Sorry, but that isn't proof, it's wishful thinking. NO offense.

Wow you are very ignorant.
The great flood has long been accepted by religious scholars as an amalgam of pagan folklore stories involving flooding. Localized flooding was a major cataclysmic event for early civilized man as all major human settlements were located near water sources.
You really need to study Geological history to understand the formation of things like the Himalayan Mountains or the Grand Canyon. Its not biblical bullshit, it is real science.

Silly Christians trying to talk science
A flash flood carved out miles of granite in a short period of time

The river is STILL there...
You didn't know that? It's called the Colorado river. What possible evidence could you have that the river would have to flow uphill? Are you forgetting the fact that rivers flow *from* uphill to downhill?

The Sphinx also appears to have water erosion, which throws our entire historical time-line of Egyptians and humans in general out the window. Speculation, my friend. Pure speculation.
