Genesis 10:23
Someone said that at one time it appears that the continents where stuck together. A thick dust cloud or water cloud above the earth keep the direct heat of the sun from hitting the earth.
Giving the earth a hot house condition. Maybe after the flood and the water fell. Is why they called it an ice age because after that centain places on the planet would have been cold.Genesis 1:6
Shows the two layers of water. What do you think?
Maybe those tons of water falling changed the earth all over.
Splitting continents and stuff. Must have been a horriffic destruction of the earth? What do you think?

To mountaing: science agrees with the bible.

The bible describes there being a division between the waters above the atmosphere and those below (the sea). Many experts agree that such and amount of water could exist as a superheated cloud barrier in the upper atmosphere. This would have had the effect of blocking many of the harmful rays from the sun and providing a much more pleasant climate.
When the flood came, it was these waters above that fell to earth, of course with this came a catastrophic change, and it seems that a rapid cooling occurred in many regions, a fact that is supported for instance by the discovery of huge numbers of well preserved mammoths and other creatures that were 'quick-frozen' in the siberian permafrost.
Other stuff includes seashells and whale fossils on mountain ranges, enormous fossil graveyards, geological formations everywhere that cannot be explained by any other means, and legends of the flood in all parts of the world. There is so much evidence that the flood happened when you look into it you can't deny it.

hmmm.... well believe that the layer of ice/water around the earth is where the flood waters came from, however the continents are attached to the earth's crust and don't just get pushed around by water. i do believe that the the plates have moved over many many years, throught the rising of magma in the mid oceanic trench and the crust slowly sinking back into the earth in other places.

Science and religion don't mix, so don't try it. If you accept the biblical version of creation then all science is evil, because Adam and Eve ate fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, which was forbidden by God. You need to give up on science and sever all ties with modern technology, including the Internet.

Hi, Shirley
That sounds reasonable, I heard or read where that is why those radiolocal clocks on how long the rock has been there doesn't work. The conpacking of the soil from the tremendous weight makes an accurate count impossible.
Now why did you quit E mailing me?

i hope those devout atheists wont start attacking you for assuming the Bible is truth. sometimes theyre just like those you want to impose religion on others.
to your question, the splitting of the continents took place way before humans were around, according to science. who knows.

continents divided long before that.
earth divided (ref gen) just meant atmosphere held back water above earth- had never rained prior to flood.
