How to debunk the billions of years required by evolutionists.

Evolution requires hundreds of millions of years to allegedly have enough time for creatures to change kinds (evolve). Thus, when their pseudo-evidence is debunked, then they are exposed as believing in error. One bit of pseudo-evidence they routinely cite is the many layers of the crust. They'll explain that the layers deposited over 100,000 to million years for each layer. And for this reason, the many layers represent hundreds of millions of years. This is wrong for several reasons: 1. When soil is deposited by the slow natural uniformitarian process, it doesn't exclusively deposit only sand for 100,000 years, then limestone for the next million years, then mud with biomass for a million years, then mud without biomass for a million years, and so forth. No, all the soil sediment is mixed together. But when we look at the crust of the earth, the soil is in layers and segregated. This proves that the soil was once mixed together in a global flood, then as the soil settled, it settled according to density and formed layers. We can test this by mixing soil in water, then let it settle. 100% of the time the soil will settle in layers based on its density. Therefore, the layers of the crust is proof positive that the soil came quickly, was mixed together in a global flood, and then settled according to density. Based on the scientific method, we are able to observe that the Bible's global Flood matches perfectly with the empirical data of the soil in the crust, and that the slow deposit hypothesis that evolutionists use (uniformitarian) is incongruous with the observable evidence. Furthermore, we can test that soil settles in water in layers, just as the Biblical Flood caused, and each test testifies against the old age belief required to support evolution. 2. Meteorites usually get burned up in the atmosphere. However, roughly ~50,000 meteorites hit Earth each year. But did you know that there are no meteorites found in the lower layers of the crust. If evolutionary geologists are correct, and each layer is estimated to be 100,000 to million years old, then there should be ~5 billion meteorites per layer. Therefore, either no meteorites hit the earth for 100s of millions of years, or the layers of the crust came quickly from the global Flood of Genesis. The only logical conclusion is that the soil came quickly, and for this reason alone, there is not enough time for evolution. 3. There are no erosion marks between each layer. The layers are uniformly deposited without the usual erosion marks that comes from rain. Thus, either there was no rain on the earth while each layer was slowly being deposited over millions of years, or the layers came quickly from the catastrophic Flood of Genesis and the soil settled in layers according to their density. And for this reason, the soil was deposited quickly to account for no erosion marks from rain. That is, the Genesis catastrophic Flood. 4. Polystrata petrification and fossilization. There are observable evidences of petrified trees that transcend what evolutionary geologist call millions of years. No tree will wait around for the layers to slowly accumulate. Once the first layer comes, the tree will die and decay to dust before the second layer could finish. Thus, each petrified tree transcending through multiple layers represents that the soil came quickly, not over millions of years. And it's even worse considering the fragile marine life found transcending through multiple layers. This is proof positive that the layers came quickly from the Global flood and settled around the tree or fish. 5. We observe looking at the crust that there are examples of many layers that have bended from tectonic plates colliding. However, the bends in the layers represents that the soil was hot, malleable, and not hard as seen today. This evidence stands against the slow deposit belief because of the lack of cracks in the layers, and the visible bending of the layers. This supports the layers came quickly and settled while being warm from the catastrophic global flood. And not cold over millions of years. Therefore, the only logical conclusion is that the slow deposit hypothesis of evolution's uniformitarian theory is completely in error, and the Bible's catastrophic global Flood is in perfect harmony with science and best explains the observable evidence. This is a summary of a couple of pages in my book that is 420 pages. wpbeginner'/>

Oxygen Concentration

Chapter 5
Oxygen Concentration

Oxygen concentration in our atmosphere is vital to life. Without oxygen, life on earth would cease to exist. Currently, the oxygen concentration in our atmosphere is around 21%, which means that 21% of the molecules that make up our atmosphere are oxygen molecules, and 79% of the molecules in our atmosphere are from other elements (78% nitrogen and <1% other).

Since a lack of oxygen kills life, would an increase in oxygen make life thrive? What would happen to life on earth, if the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere was 50% higher than today? This would mean that oxygen in the atmosphere would make up ±31% of the atmosphere. A research team at Arizona State University1 did a study of insects in an atmosphere at 31% oxygen concentration (a hyperoxia environment), which is a 50% increase in our current oxygen concentration in the atmosphere. The researchers also studied insects in an atmosphere at 12% oxygen concentration (a hypoxia environment).

The results were staggering; most of the insects raised in hyperoxia conditions were larger in size than normal, which clearly demonstrates a thriving life. Only the cockroach remained the same size. However, the cockroach’s internal tracheae (tubes that carry oxygen throughout the body) were smaller than normal as a result of living in a 31% oxygen environment, which allowed other organs and tissues to grow larger. Other tissues that grew larger were muscles, blood vessels, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and more, which means those cockroaches would be faster, stronger, and quicker and have improved endurance and a faster response time. Therefore, all insects in an oxygen-enriched environment would thrive.

In a hyperoxia (31% O2) environment, insects grow larger. And the ones that don’t seem to grow larger (because of an exoskeleton restricts growth) would eventually grow larger in time as they adapted to the increased oxygen concentrations because of the ability to adapt already exists in the DNA. This is called adaptation or “speciealization” (this is not evolution because they are still the same kind of creature).

Conversely, the research showed that the insects grown in hypoxia (low oxygen concentration, around 12% oxygen concentration, which is half of today’s value) were[expander_maker more=”Read more” less=”Read less”] smaller in size. And even though the cockroach remained the same size, its internal tracheae (tubes that carry oxygen throughout the body) grew larger to compensate, which forced other organs and tissues to be smaller. Having smaller tissues, such as those related to muscles, tendons, blood vessels, and nerves, means that those cockroaches raised in hypoxia (low oxygen concentration) would be less active and unable to run as long or as fast or jump as high and would have a slower response time. This is a negative approach to further prove that higher oxygen concentrations cause life to thrive.

For this study, the limiting factor of insect growth was oxygen, and varying the amount of oxygen results in changes in the size of tracheal tubes.

1. The higher the oxygen concentration in the air, the smaller the tracheal tubes are required to transfer low volumes of air into the body to get the necessary volume of oxygen into the body as needed.

2. The lower the oxygen concentration in the air, the larger the tracheal tubes are required to transfer high volumes of air into the body to get the necessary volume of oxygen into the body as needed.

Review: Experiments show that higher oxygen concentration in the atmosphere equals thriving life. Life will grow larger, faster, and with greater longevity in an environment with higher oxygen concentrations.

Today, we have cockroaches that are about 2.75 inches long, but the fossil record shows cockroaches that grew to 18 inches long. That is 6.5 times larger. Today, we have dragonflies with a wing span of 6 inches, but the fossil record shows dragonflies with wingspans up to 50 inches. That is 8.3 times larger. Today, the chambered nautilus (it looks like a squid in a shell) grows to about 10 inches in diameter, but the fossil record shows that they once grew to 8 feet in diameter. That is 9.6 times larger.
