Plate tectonics and continental drift have been taught to me from a very early age.
I frequently found myself staring at geological formations, wondering how on earth, they were formed. It sort of made sense, and what I didn't understand, I figured that it had all been studied, and some expert had already figured it all out, and there was no point in exploring the subject any further. Now, I have recently discovered that there were other theories floating around: http://www.geocities.com/capecanaveral/lau...98/EARTHEXP.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Warren_Carey Now there are stories, of the Earth being only 6000 years old, and a huge flood that covered the world, and predictions of a firery future... However, I find little, outside a few human scribbles, to support these stories. But, I do see a grain of truth in the demonstration. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJzic3kk4_g Proof that the Earth has become larger. ...and that's about all. imo, lunk |

Well that's my paraphrase of it (a little Middle English/Baconspeare? style, maybe). You know how the translation thing goes Sanders (and I don't trust those f*ckers either (IMG:http://pilotsfor911truth.org/forum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).
