Jon AtackGUEST
Yeah, and I think there is a fear, which, you know, in the 19th century when Charles Lyell pointed out that the Earth is not it wasn't created in 4004 BC as Bishop Usher put forward, that it was probably hundreds of millions of years old.
Jon AtackGUEST
And Noah's Flood by Norman Cone, which I recommend again, and I recommend all of Norman Cone's books.
Jon AtackGUEST
Absolutely brilliant historian.
Jon AtackGUEST
But he takes you into that place in academia where they're suddenly have these ideas with starting with Lyle and then 20 years later, 30 years later with Alfred Wallace, the spiritualist and Charles Darwin.
Kurt SandvigHOST
He compiled between 100 to 250 flood legends from around the entire world.
Kurt SandvigHOST
He was trying to basically prove the Noah's Flood.
Kurt SandvigHOST
He says he had 8,000 plus verified flood legends from the Malay Peninsula alone.
Kurt SandvigHOST
Now, modern anthropologists and geologists say...
Tas WalkerGUEST
And that ultimately comes from a belief or attitude towards geology.
Tas WalkerGUEST
And that comes out of in the 1830s, some of the scientists who were working on geology there came up with an idea that they would explain it all and ignore the Bible, ignore Noah's flood.
Tas WalkerGUEST
And as a result of that, we find that's where the the biggest challenges comes from, and young people face these challenges.
Tas WalkerGUEST
And so what we did is we decided to go on geological excursions.
Tas WalkerGUEST
So basically you use the Bible as a way of understanding the world rather than the other way around, rather than trying to prove it.
Tas WalkerGUEST
So we use it as a way of understanding the world.
Tas WalkerGUEST
And so Noah's flood is a key to understanding that, and you've got the waters of Noah's flood.
Tas WalkerGUEST
The waters go up.
Darren MarlarHOST
The evidence seemed compelling.
Darren MarlarHOST
Soil samples revealed clay-like materials, marine deposits, and remnants of ancient sea life dating back to the exact era when biblical scholars believe Noah's Flood occurred.
Darren MarlarHOST
Human activity in the area around Mount Ararat from the same period was also detected.
Darren MarlarHOST
But here's where our story takes a sinister turn into the shadows of government secrecy.
Laura BrandHOST
Mm.
Russell BrandHOST
What was the storm that started what we would call Noah's Flood?
Laura BrandHOST
Mm.
Russell BrandHOST
What is this power and what are we? Of course, the materialist and the atheist will say, "Nah, it's just meteorology, it's not connected." But in some way it's connected, 'cause all of this unf- furled and unfolded from some singular point 13.8 billion-
Tim OzmanHOST
For some reason, people are very susceptible to a lot of these things, and I think that's why the state appropriated it.
Tim OzmanHOST
The state appropriated Noah's Flood because it is such an effective myth.
Tim OzmanHOST
It's a...
Tim OzmanHOST
It's like a God construct, they insert.
Ken HamGUEST
So if you do a compass circle around this area, you realize, wow, it's really easy for most people to get here and then you've got the west well that's a different country anyway right right over there but it's easy for people to get here it's easy for people to fly here cincinnati is a really nice airport it's a big airport and so it's i can see god's hand in doing all of this and then while we're building the creation museum we said well what are we going to do next i mean you know what are you going to do sit down and do nothing No, we've got to think of what we're going to do next.
Ken HamGUEST
And because over the years, we'd always tried to get across the size of the arc, because Noah's Flood is such an integral event in history, because the fossil record that's used by evolutionists to try to say this is evidence for evolution is actually the record of the flood.
Ken HamGUEST
And not only that, atheists use Noah's ark to say it could never happen because he couldn't fit the animals on board.
Ken HamGUEST
And so we've always tried to get across to people the size of the ark, and it wasn't different species needed on the ark, it was kinds.
