They may have been only a couple hundred feet high.
May? So there is no historical evidence of this in the historically accurate bible?

The mountains were not nearly as high in Noah's day. They may have been only a couple hundred feet high. As the plates submerged, the waters of the oceans rose and the vast waters under the earth sprayed upward.
After the flood the basins which are now ocean basins sunk and the tectonic plate Pangea was on came up and then the mountains arose.
Does it say this in the bible?

The vast waters under ground... Get some scrap paper and really work this out. The whole plates thing, and Atlantis sinking, oh I'm sorry that's another legend.

Until you can prove me wrong, I'll forgo any more bantering. I usually only reserve my conversations with adults.

You should have some conversations with the scientific community since you are in possession of revolutionary and previously unknown scientific data found on YouTube. Think of all of the honorary degrees you will be getting from prestigious universities worldwide. You will finally be able to interact with people of your supreme intellectual ability instead of arguing with your inferiors on the internet.

Just prove the four videos wrong or quit. Your responses don't prove a darn thing. Just prove the four videos wrong or admit defeat.

Just out of curiosity, what would you even accept as proof? A Youtube video of a priest saying they're wrong?

I'm just wondering what it would take, because I've seen you proven wrong more times than I could begin to count, but never seen you admit it. Every single time I've ever seen you proven wrong, your response has invariably been, "nuh-uh! bible says otherwise! next!" So what would it take?

Eusebius, you seem to be reverting to your Other theory, which is that the mountains didn't rise up relative to the ground but were raised up by the ground. That of course means that you have to add on a suggestion that the rest of the rising of the mountains was done after the breakup of Pangea. In effect what you are doing is what has to be done with the 'kinds' on the Ark - lightning evolution to get the present species.

This is simply taking the findings of geology and evolution and speeding them up into a miniscule time -scale to try to fit it into a Genesis scenario.

Because the story is going off the rails.

I was always told never to lie. Later I found out that telling a lie meant having to continually service it.
