ammonite fossils in Mount Everest and crocodiles NOW in the Sahara - evolution censors fooled

Not to take your post too seriously (recognizing the winkie), One really must wonder how long it would take the slow moving sea creatures to climb from the Bay of Bengal to the heights of Everest.

I think the current rate measured is about a quarter inch per year (or four years per inch). Making the probably unsafe assumption that the rate has been constant for the past N years:

4 (year/inch) * (12 inches/foot) * 29,035 (feet) = 1,393,680 years

Of course, that's an absurdly rough calculation, but I think it's around the right order of magnitude.

to people who write : sea-fossils found where they oughtn't be can easily be explained by plate tectonics. Mountains are the results of two plates pushing up against each other, so the ground is going to raise up.
Since the formation of mountains takes an exceedingly long time ... I win. Do I get a cookie?
No you don't. Of course the film had to keep repeating the "plate tectonics" explanation - that's what the film makers were paid for, and that's why (as I explained before) the key points of the film were not censored. But ...

... but to help the brain washed public (any child is able to understand that only zombies can swallow a story of an ammonite being raised from sea level to 7000 meters altitude, proudly keeping its form and balance on top of the world ...) on this subject, the film makers found also a good example. It was presented also right at the beginning of the film. A plane crashing in a New Zealand glacier, does that ring a bell ?

It's not really breaking news that we find giant seashell fossils in the middle of west Texas, for example.

I found a "New Coke" can along the highway the other day.

Rather straightforward explanation for that.

I don't agree with all premises of evolutionary theory. But you are confusing plate tectonics with evolution - two very different subjects.

But, then again, you confuse a lot of things.

I'm a little confused here... do you think the measurements showing the height of Mt Everest constantly increasing have been falsified?

[Truth666]

That's irrelevant for this issue

[NeuronExMachina]

Forgive me, for I haven't seen the documentary myself. Could you elaborate on what your objection is?

[Truth666]

It's all clearly stated in the sequence I wrote above in this thread. If you don't understand a particular step in that sequence, please state it

I say we take the flat earthers from here and the DUmmies and give 'em their own site. We can call it Tin Foil Underground Republic.

The bunny with a pancake on its head can be the mascot.
