How could a guy snorkelling in the ocean get burned to
death?
It happened this way - some 14 years ago.
There was a forest fire raging. A helicopter dipped a
giant bucket into the sea, then flew inland to pour its
watery contents onto the fire. When the fire was put out,
the charred body of the snorkeller was found among the
smouldering trees.
Of course the helicopter pilot had no idea that he had
scooped up a man in the water.
(by the way, someone did claim this to be just an "urban
myth" but further investigation indicated that yes, it
actually happened.)
My point, however, is this. Something in the sea can only
end up far inland by some unusual event.
Here’s something else. What if you were out in the
mountains and you came across a deep sea whale? This
really happened. (I’ll tell you about that soon.)
But we both know that whales don’t walk over land. Only
some gigantic disaster could do it.
SEA AND LAND LIFE MIXED
TOGETHER, FAR INLAND
On all continents, bones of SEA animals and LAND animals
are found together in great melees – on land!
* East Africa’s Tendaquru dinosaur beds alternate
with seashell beds, just as one would expect if a
catastrophe swept in from different sources.
* On England’s Channel Coast, sea shales and
limestones cycle with dinosaur-bearing land deposits.
* In Wyoming, aralia leaves appear with fish in
Cretaceous rocks.
* In Oklahoma, sea creatures and land plants fill
an asphalt pit near Sulphur.
Frequently, remains of WHALES and other examples of
DEEP-SEA life are found far removed from the sea, MIXED
WITH LAND plants, trees and land animals.
It is common knowledge that the deep floor of the ocean
is so calm as never to have its ooze disturbed by the
most violent surface storm.
Only some violent upheaval such as an inter-continental
(i.e. global) Flood, would explain the MIXTURE of the
deep-sea specimens with those of shore and land, all
covered and preserved by sudden destruction and burial.
SEA LIFE SWEPT ONTO MOUNTAINS
Marine fossils are found on mountain tops hundreds of
miles inland from any sea, or buried under hundreds of
feet of clay, sand, gravel and other debris.
* In Antarctica, 85 mummified seals were found
on a mountaintop 2,500 feet above sea level.
* The Himalayas, the world’s highest mountains,
contain skeletons of ocean fish, molluscs and marine
animals. Toward the top of Mount Everest, are petrified
clams in the closed position. When a clam dies, it opens.
The only way to get a petrified clam in the closed
position would be to bury it alive. There are places
where clams are found in the closed position and they
are piled ten feet thick!
* Fish fossils are found in the Alps of Europe;
and oyster fossils are abundant in the Allegheny
Mountains.
* Fossil sharks have been found in the Rocky
Mountains, entombed by sudden catastrophe; and in the
tops of the Canadian Rockies, seashells and even whales
– hundreds of miles inland from any seas.
* The South American Andes and the Urals of Russia
likewise contain sea creatures.
* In Montreal, Canada, seals have been found far
inland, several hundred feet above sea level.
* Bones and skeletons of whales have been found in
hills of Vermont, Montreal, New Hampshire and north of
Lake Ontario.
Now for the secret of Lompoc’s quarry. But first, let me
explain about diatoms. These are tiny sea creatures.
They say it takes about 1,000 years to accumulate one
inch of dead diatoms on the seabed. At Lompoc, the
diatomaceous earth is 1,500 feet thick in places.
At a diatomaceous-earth quarry in Lompoc, in 1976, a
remarkable discovery was made during mining operations.
Workers of the Dicalcite Division of Grefco Corporation
uncovered the fossil skeleton of a baleen whale. The
whale fossil was STANDING ON END in the quarry and was
being exposed gradually as the diatomite was mined.
Estimates put the whale fossil at about 80 feet long
And please get this.This whale penetrated a diatom
formation that, according to evolutionary theory, is
millions of years thick.
But we all know that a whale simply would not stand up
on its tail for millions of years waiting to get buried
while the diatom deposits were slowly forming.
Here, then, was Lompoc’s bizarre secret. This baleen
whale was the tragic victim of some enormous catastrophe.
And in this event, diatoms for hundreds of miles around
were scooped up and dumped on top of this whale, while
the whale itself was being tossed on end.
Now glaciers don’t carry whales. Whales do not stand
on their tails. Whales do not climb hills. THE WHALES
WERE CARRIED THERE BY RUSHING WATER. Then buried
rapidly.
On July 22, 1988, my friend Kent Hovind visited the
quarry. And the foreman told Kent, “One time we were
digging on the night shift. And we had all the spotlights
rigged up. We found a 60-foot wingspan pterodactyl.”
“What happened to it?” asked Kent.
“Oh, we didn’t stop and tell anybody.”
”Why not? That would be big news.”
“We didn’t,” said the workman, “because if you tell some
university, ‘We’ve got a fossil here,’ they’re going to
make you shut down production while they come and dig out
their fossil – and you’re going to lose money.
“We’re here to make money. And so we just dug right
through it.”
So, along with this baleen whale and billions of fish
fossils, was a giant flying reptile – all caught up in
this same huge disaster…and now inside a “mountain”.
And something else. Many mountains on earth show evidence
of wave action.
Here’s my theory. There was the greatest mother of all
global disasters. It brought water over all the
continental land mass.
Then, as the Flood waters subsided, they left behind
seashells and skeletons of small and large sea creatures
scattered over all the present mountain ranges of our
planet,
FOSSILS PROVE AN ENORMOUS FLOOD
Here, then, is the bottom line: fossils in every part
of the planet testify to a global catastrophe.
Sometimes entombed in sediment a mile deep, land and
sea forms are mixed together. In America, Europe,
Africa, Asia and Australia – in fact, everywhere – they
all shout one and the same story.
There was SUDDEN, VIOLENT UPHEAVAL, in which LAND and
SEA were mixed up – followed by rapid burial of animals
in water-laid sediment, before organisms could decay.
This occurred from the North Polar region to the South.
It was a catastrophe on a WORLD SCALE.
Only one force known to man is able to perform such a
sudden, wholesale destruction, followed by an immediate
burial. THAT FORCE IS WATER.
The evolution theory requires that the deposits were
formed over millions of years of slow sedimentation.
However, I believe the universal Flood fits the facts
better, without difficulty. Judge for yourself.
