Global Flood

Uniformitarianism is the primary paradime by which the geologic record is currently understood. There is some evidence to suggest a global flood better fits with the evidence. As the flood waters rose, they buried each ecosystem successively. This rapid water would create turbidity currents, burying animals and plants in seconds. One wave of water after another hitting different ego systems would cause these ego systems to end up in layers on top of one another. Within peleozoic and mesozoic rocks, there are large layers that span continents. The contemporary explanation is that the different fossils in these layers represent the animals alive at the time these rocks were laid down. However, these could also be explained
