than the wickedness of man

00:00:41,070 --> 00:00:42,437
he was great on earth.

And that's every imagination
of the thoughts of his heart

10
00:00:55,380 --> 00:00:57,584
it was just evil all the time.

(soldiers singing)

12
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:05,880
And God looked at the earth,

13
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,460
and behold, he was corrupt before God,

14
00:01:08,460 --> 00:01:10,830
and the earth was filled with violence.

15
00:01:10,830 --> 00:01:14,370
And the Lord regretted that
had created man on earth,

16
00:01:14,370 --> 00:01:16,530
and this pained him deeply.

17
00:01:16,530 --> 00:01:19,470
And the Lord said: «I will destroy man

18
00:01:19,470 --> 00:01:22,200
that I created from
the face of the earth,

19
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,020
both man and beast,
and the creeping thing,

20
00:01:25,020 --> 00:01:26,670
and the birds of the sky;

21
00:01:26,670 --> 00:01:29,457
because this makes me regret it
that I created them."

22
00:01:32,430 --> 00:01:34,953
But Noah found grace in
the eyes of the Lord.

23
00:01:40,650 --> 00:01:44,340
And behold, I, myself, do it
bring a flood of waters

24
00:01:44,340 --> 00:01:45,360
on earth

25
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,110
to destroy all flesh in which
it is the vital breath

26
00:01:49,110 --> 00:01:50,460
from under the sky,

27
00:01:50,460 --> 00:01:55,460
and all that is
in the earth they will die.

28
00:01:55,500 --> 00:01:58,230
I'll make it rain
on earth 40 days

29
00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:59,403
and 40 nights.

30
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,260
And every living thing

00:02:04,260 --> 00:02:06,863

33
00:02:13,257 --> 00:02:16,121

It's the story we were
all told in our childhood.

00:06:01,490 --> 00:06:05,583
Many say it is nothing more than
More than a children's story, it is a story for children.

56
00:06:06,660 --> 00:06:08,790
A fantasy to teach morals

57
00:06:08,790 --> 00:06:12,450
and instill the fear of God in children.

58

the man collected at least two

(pouring rain)

61
00:06:28,740 --> 00:06:33,420
A worldwide flood, survived by
those few, and by few I mean

62
00:06:33,420 --> 00:06:37,920
at least 16,000 animals and
only eight men and women.

63
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,210
A wooden ship of that size couldn't
maybe survive a flood

64
00:06:42,210 --> 00:06:43,950
of that enormity.

65
00:06:43,950 --> 00:06:46,893
This is undoubtedly an absurd story.

66
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,433
That story comes from the Bible,

67
00:06:51,780 --> 00:06:54,660
which tells us that
it was the wickedness of humanity

68
00:06:54,660 --> 00:06:58,500
which attracted the judgment of God
of a worldwide deluge.

69
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:01,530
Perhaps this judgment has
caused the subconscious reaction

70
00:07:01,530 --> 00:07:05,730
of those who would mock and
ridicule the story of Noah

71
00:07:05,730 --> 00:07:09,810
and the flood as mere fiction.

72
00:07:09,810 --> 00:07:12,990
For centuries, many people have
he looked for ways to discredit

73
00:07:12,990 --> 00:07:15,930
the story of the universal flood,

74
00:07:15,930 --> 00:07:19,590
yet Jesus also spoke of
Noah's flood using it

75
00:07:19,590 --> 00:07:24,120
for example, warning of
another great judgment is yet to come.

76
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,490
- Heaven and earth will pass away,

77
00:07:26,490 --> 00:07:30,030
but my words will not go unnoticed at all.

78
00:07:30,030 --> 00:07:33,720
But no one knows about that day and that hour,

79
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,890
not even the angels of
heaven, but only my Father.

80
00:07:37,890 --> 00:07:40,530
But how are the days of Noah,

81
00:07:40,530 --> 00:07:43,530
so will the next one
of the Son of man be.

82
00:07:43,530 --> 00:07:46,230
For as in the days before the flood,

83
00:07:46,230 --> 00:07:48,330
they were eating and drinking,

84
00:07:48,330 --> 00:07:50,430
get married and give in marriage,

85
00:07:50,430 --> 00:07:52,437
until the day Noah entered the ark.

86
00:07:52,437 --> 00:07:55,527
And he didn't know it until the flood came,

87
00:07:55,527 --> 00:07:57,810
and they took them all away.

88
00:07:57,810 --> 00:08:01,170
So will the next one too
of the Son of man be.

89
00:08:01,170 --> 00:08:03,120
There will be two men on the field;

90
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,670
One will be taken, the other left.

91
00:08:05,670 --> 00:08:08,190
Two women will work at the mill;

92
00:08:08,190 --> 00:08:10,473
One will be taken, the other left.

93
00:08:11,610 --> 00:08:13,080
Observe therefore,

94
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,023
because you don't know what
the hour when your Lord will come.

95
00:08:17,940 --> 00:08:21,000
But know this, that if the
the owner of the house knew

96
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,880
the time and what the demon would come,

97
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,240
he would have looked,

98
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,553
and he was not allowed his home
to be broken in two.

99
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,110
Therefore you too be ready,

100
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:32,970
for the Son of man will come at 8 p.m

101
00:08:32,970 --> 00:08:34,713
that you don't expect.

102
00:08:37,140 --> 00:08:39,840
- [Narrator] Some have zealously
and he traveled with ambition

103
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,200
the world in one attempt
use scientific evidence

104
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,910
to justify what they thought

105
00:08:44,910 --> 00:08:47,643
the evidence remained
behind Noah's flood.

106
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,670
What ulterior motives drove these people?

107
00:08:50,670 --> 00:08:52,380
have to do something like that?

108
00:08:52,380 --> 00:08:56,370
Their ulterior motives
undermine their scientific analysis?

109
00:08:56,370 --> 00:08:58,380
Their attempt at science was nothing more than this

110
00:08:58,380 --> 00:09:02,040
rather than a subtle attack
against Christ himself?

111
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,400
To answer these and
many more questions,

112
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:10,400
we'll take a look at history,
archeology and geology.

113
00:09:10,620 --> 00:09:12,540
We will use modern science

114
00:09:12,540 --> 00:09:15,407
to reveal the mystery of Noah's universal flood.

115
00:09:15,407 --> 00:09:18,157

(dramatic music)

118
00:11:41,340 --> 00:11:45,930
- As with many mysteries,
our investigation begins

119
00:11:45,930 --> 00:11:50,673
in a completely unexpected place,
and in a completely unexpected way.

120
00:11:51,570 --> 00:11:54,450
We will wander along many paths apparently

121
00:11:54,450 --> 00:11:56,970
unrelated hunting trails

122
00:11:56,970 --> 00:12:00,330
Surprisingly, all of these
rabbit trails eventually come

123
00:12:00,330 --> 00:12:03,150
at the same crossroads of the road,

124
00:12:03,150 --> 00:12:07,230
one of the most significant
events in the history of the Earth,

125
00:12:07,230 --> 00:12:09,573
Noah's universal flood

126
00:12:10,890 --> 00:12:12,810
Practically since
beginning of the story,

127
00:12:12,810 --> 00:12:15,120
people believed the story of Noah

128
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,790
and the great universal flood.

129
00:12:17,790 --> 00:12:20,850
Actually, that story is
found in cultures literally,

130
00:12:20,850 --> 00:12:22,713
all over the world.

131
00:12:23,670 --> 00:12:26,550
Even the founding fathers of science,

132
00:12:26,550 --> 00:12:29,790
and in particular the geological sciences,

133
00:12:29,790 --> 00:12:34,203
everyone believed in Noah's flood
as a literal story, a fact.

134
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,920
Almost all the founders
fathers of science

135
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,970
they were very religious,
Individuals who believe the Bible.

136
00:12:41,970 --> 00:12:43,770
But for some of these people,

137
00:12:43,770 --> 00:12:48,720
scientific evidence
this caused a crisis of faith in them.

138
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,900
- Nicolaus Steno was a Danish researcher,

139
00:12:51,900 --> 00:12:56,220
born at the beginning of 1600,
And he was very intelligent.

140
00:12:56,220 --> 00:12:58,590
In fact, as a young man, even at twenty,

141
00:12:58,590 --> 00:13:03,450
he became the official anatomist
to the King of Denmark.

142
00:13:03,450 --> 00:13:07,260
The intellectual center
of all Europe was in Florence.

143
00:13:07,260 --> 00:13:11,220
There was what we would call
a research center in Florence

144
00:13:11,220 --> 00:13:13,800
in those days, and all the best scientists

145
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,050
many Europeans went there to carry out their research.

146
00:13:16,050 --> 00:13:19,350
So he would attend
the brightest people.

147
00:13:19,350 --> 00:13:21,270
One of the things that intrigued him,

148
00:13:21,270 --> 00:13:22,770
apart from all his studies,

149
00:13:22,770 --> 00:13:25,170
and we must remember that at that time,

150
00:13:25,170 --> 00:13:28,050
science was not divided
in order as it is today

151
00:13:28,050 --> 00:13:31,380
in anatomy and physics,

152
00:13:31,380 --> 00:13:36,115
and walking around the
mountains around Florence,

153
00:13:36,115 --> 00:13:37,770
in the middle of Italy,

154
00:13:37,770 --> 00:13:40,410
there was a mountain range
known as the Apennine Chain.

155
00:13:40,410 --> 00:13:43,890
He could go and explore those places on horseback.

156
00:13:43,890 --> 00:13:45,000
in his free time,

157
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,670
and noticed that in the
rocks on those mountains,

158
00:13:47,670 --> 00:13:49,920
there were fossils.

159
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,740
And fossils would be
they appear to lie horizontally

160
00:13:52,740 --> 00:13:55,650
and they would be different
different layers and places.

161
00:13:55,650 --> 00:13:59,326
And we would recognize it
and today we call it stratigraphy.

162
00:13:59,326 --> 00:14:02,460
He liked what he saw
regarding Roman Catholics.

163
00:14:02,460 --> 00:14:05,010
He became a fervent Roman Catholic.

164
00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:06,870
And in fact, the Roman Catholic Church

165
00:14:06,870 --> 00:14:09,390
Eventually he appointed him bishop.

166
00:14:09,390 --> 00:14:12,780
He wrote, it was a pamphlet,
a publication in reality,

167
00:14:12,780 --> 00:14:14,490
called "The Prodrome".

168
00:14:14,490 --> 00:14:16,470
Now things were written
in Latin for publication

169
00:14:16,470 --> 00:14:20,220
in those days, and therefore,
this prodrome explained

170
00:14:20,220 --> 00:14:24,537
how the rocks contained the
the fossils were arranged in layers,

171
00:14:24,537 --> 00:14:27,813
and those layers were laid
down during the flood.

172
00:14:28,710 --> 00:14:31,290
Oh, well, and you look around,

173
00:14:31,290 --> 00:14:33,597
find out that those fossils

174
00:14:33,597 --> 00:14:35,770
and that order sometimes repeats itself

175
00:14:36,690 --> 00:14:39,660
and it occurred to him, well
perhaps that flood of Genesis

176
00:14:39,660 --> 00:14:42,110
that he believed in
because it was in the Bible,

177
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,240
maybe that flood there
there were numerous floods

178
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,720
throughout history that they are
not registered in advance.

179
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,570
Maybe hundreds of years before

180
00:14:51,570 --> 00:14:53,220
and are repeated again.

181
00:14:53,220 --> 00:14:57,420
Well, little by little, this
so he expanded the time frame

182
00:14:57,420 --> 00:15:00,210
of the past by a few thousand

183
00:15:00,210 --> 00:15:02,490
where in the past there was only one flood

184
00:15:02,490 --> 00:15:04,530
and that was the flood described in Genesis

185
00:15:04,530 --> 00:15:07,983
in the book of Genesis a
multiple floods.

186
00:15:08,820 --> 00:15:10,800
Today, all this is obviously accepted,

187
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,230
because it is the foundation of the theory

188
00:15:13,230 --> 00:15:17,640
of evolution, which
requires long periods of time.

189
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,040
Shortly afterwards, towards the end of 1600

190
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,850
when Hutton was born, he was Scottish,

191
00:15:23,850 --> 00:15:27,330
and was walking along the
east coast of Scotland one day,

192
00:15:27,330 --> 00:15:31,530
and the fossils in those rocks
they didn't line up in order

193
00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:35,070
that would be expected if
you have accepted evolution.

194
00:15:35,070 --> 00:15:37,890
Now evolution, as I say,
this happened at the end of 1600,

195
00:15:37,890 --> 00:15:39,480
which was not accepted at the time,

196
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,970
it wasn't even known
or talked about at all.

197
00:15:41,970 --> 00:15:44,667
Everyone was still talking
regarding the flood of Genesis

198
00:15:44,667 --> 00:15:47,310
and they believed in
scriptures and so on.

199
00:15:47,310 --> 00:15:50,010
But little by little, the
foundations of belief

200
00:15:50,010 --> 00:15:51,990
the foundations were being laid in the theory of evolution.

201
00:15:51,990 --> 00:15:55,680
And James Hutton threw a vital part of

202
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,390
Right there, at Siccar Point.

203
00:15:57,390 --> 00:15:58,330
When he noticed two layers of rock,

204
00:15:58,330 --> 00:16:03,330
which they evidently were
somewhat out of sequence.

205
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,240
Well, as we know, there is only one flood.

206
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,650
What happened there?

207
00:16:07,650 --> 00:16:11,820
Well, the deposition of sediment in the water

208
00:16:11,820 --> 00:16:15,030
can be explained well
but, everyone knows this,

209
00:16:15,030 --> 00:16:17,310
like Galileo's thermoscope,

210
00:16:17,310 --> 00:16:18,540
that's what it was called before,

211
00:16:18,540 --> 00:16:20,430
Now it is Galileo's thermometer.

212
00:16:20,430 --> 00:16:22,740
This is a sealed glass tube

213
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:25,260
and contains nothing but water,

214
00:16:25,260 --> 00:16:28,770
in which they are suspended
these little glass bubbles.

215
00:16:28,770 --> 00:16:31,260
They are of different colors,
and at the bottom of each one

216
00:16:31,260 --> 00:16:34,890
It has a small label that indicates the temperature.

217
00:16:34,890 --> 00:16:37,500
When the water arrives
hotter, as it would,

218
00:16:37,500 --> 00:16:40,830
we use it to say
air temperature in the room.

219
00:16:40,830 --> 00:16:43,710
So, the temperature of
the current in this room

220
00:16:43,710 --> 00:16:45,780
it lies between that and this.

221
00:16:45,780 --> 00:16:48,420
It has the indicated temperatures
on a little label there.

222
00:16:48,420 --> 00:16:51,180
I think it says 24 on there
one and 22 in this case.

223
00:16:51,180 --> 00:16:54,690
So the temperature is now
about 21 in the central part.

224
00:16:54,690 --> 00:16:56,520
It's degrees centigrade, degrees centigrade.

225
00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:01,440
Hence, the buoyancy of these
small changes,

226
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,210
or at least it remains
constant, I would say.

227
00:17:03,210 --> 00:17:08,210
Let me start with buoyancy
varies with temperature.

228
00:17:08,820 --> 00:17:11,607
So if it's hot, the
the hot water rises to the top

229
00:17:11,607 --> 00:17:13,590
and the cold water remains at the bottom

230
00:17:13,590 --> 00:17:15,690
And the same would happen in the ocean too.

231
00:17:15,690 --> 00:17:18,540
If there was a volcano
going under the ocean,

232
00:17:18,540 --> 00:17:22,020
then all that hot liquid would leak out.

233
00:17:22,020 --> 00:17:23,700
He would heat the water, make it boil,

234
00:17:23,700 --> 00:17:27,280
the hot water would go to the
the top and hot water can expand

235
00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:30,090
and it does it in the little glass tube

236
00:17:30,090 --> 00:17:32,490
because there is air up here.

237
00:17:32,490 --> 00:17:35,760
Hot water expands and
it becomes less buoyant

238
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,950
and so, these little bubbles

239
00:17:37,950 --> 00:17:40,830
which I am now at
the bottom can rise to the top

240
00:17:40,830 --> 00:17:44,490
due to their buoyancy
or the density remains fixed.

241
00:17:44,490 --> 00:17:47,460
They are made of glass, they are fixed

242
00:17:47,460 --> 00:17:50,550
and have a specific weight and size.

243
00:17:50,550 --> 00:17:52,350
So, in this room right now,

244
00:17:52,350 --> 00:17:54,600
the temperature is between
what floats

245
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,090
like hot water in
the room or the hot air,

246
00:17:57,090 --> 00:18:00,480
it's the same, and this,
and those who are sinking

247
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,820
because they are heavier than water.

248
00:18:02,820 --> 00:18:04,680
This is how temperature is measured

249
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,810
in Galileo's thermometer.

250
00:18:06,810 --> 00:18:09,420
And it describes and shows

251
00:18:09,420 --> 00:18:12,090
this is exactly what was happening
during the flood of Genesis.

252
00:18:12,090 --> 00:18:14,970
The heaviest particles
they sank to the bottom.

253
00:18:14,970 --> 00:18:18,510
And remember, if that flood
The water was about a mile deep,

254
00:18:18,510 --> 00:18:20,100
we don't know how big it was,

255
00:18:20,100 --> 00:18:22,167
but it covered the
mountain tops evidently,

256
00:18:22,167 --> 00:18:25,500
and that would have been it
a mile, if he did,

257
00:18:25,500 --> 00:18:28,380
it would take some time
for suspended solids

258
00:18:28,380 --> 00:18:32,070
into the water gradually
sink to the bottom.

259
00:18:32,070 --> 00:18:33,420
So you can appreciate

260
00:18:33,420 --> 00:18:36,150
that there would be a
certain specific order

261
00:18:36,150 --> 00:18:39,300
to the ways in which those
The sediments have settled.

262
00:18:39,300 --> 00:18:42,630
The heavier ones at the bottom
and the lighter ones at the top,

263
00:18:42,630 --> 00:18:44,550
And that's exactly how we find them.

264
00:18:44,550 --> 00:18:47,370
Those heavy minerals are
it is usually found on the bottom

265
00:18:47,370 --> 00:18:49,200
of the stratigraphic column

266
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,513
and the lighter ones
they are located near the top.

267
00:18:52,620 --> 00:18:54,180
- The principles of stratigraphy

268
00:18:54,180 --> 00:18:56,523
that Steno developed
they are still in use today.

269
00:18:57,390 --> 00:19:00,030
These layers of rock are called strata,

270
00:19:00,030 --> 00:19:03,120
and this is where we arrive
the word stratigraphy.

271
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:06,060
It is literally the study of rock layers.

272
00:19:06,060 --> 00:19:09,360
Now Steno has made several
proposals regarding the layers

273
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:11,520
which are still accepted,

274
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,150
such as the original horizontality.

275
00:19:15,150 --> 00:19:16,770
All these layers of rock that you see

276
00:19:16,770 --> 00:19:20,580
they were originally laid
horizontally, flat.

277
00:19:20,580 --> 00:19:24,660
They were later fastened and
tilt until they become what they are now.

278
00:19:24,660 --> 00:19:28,290
Steno also proposed the
superposition principle.

279
00:19:28,290 --> 00:19:30,840
This layer of rock was
obviously laid out first

280
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,040
because it had to be there

281
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,240
before the next layer could
it should be laid on top, right?

282
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,490
And therefore, we logically deduce

283
00:19:38,490 --> 00:19:41,370
the further you go
down into the rock layers,

284
00:19:41,370 --> 00:19:45,000
The older the rock layers get, right?

285
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,500
Looking around the world,

286
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:50,880
Hutton argued that the waves
of sea erosion on the cliffs

287
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,050
and beaches.

288
00:19:52,050 --> 00:19:57,050
Wind, rain and frost break
lifts and pulverizes rocks.

289
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,940
Given enough time, entire mountains

290
00:19:59,940 --> 00:20:02,310
it could be eroded in this way.

291
00:20:02,310 --> 00:20:06,270
In his 1795 book,
"Earth Theory",

292
00:20:06,270 --> 00:20:09,960
Hutton repeatedly pointed out
current processes

293
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,470
in an apparent attempt to
avoid supernatural events

294
00:20:13,470 --> 00:20:16,290
in the Earth's past, in particular,

295
00:20:16,290 --> 00:20:20,490
the supernatural event of
Noah's flood.

296
00:20:20,490 --> 00:20:22,530
Now, Hutton didn't come
to these conclusions

297
00:20:22,530 --> 00:20:25,800
by deduction or scientific observation,

298
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,340
but rather in a pseudoscientific way.

299
00:20:29,340 --> 00:20:33,240
He was personally upset
from what he read in the Bible,

300
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,540
and they wanted to downplay the evidence

301
00:20:36,540 --> 00:20:40,323
which was perceived as
in support of Noah's flood,

302
00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:44,403
evidence of a story that
it upset him personally.

303
00:20:45,450 --> 00:20:47,640
Hutton's writings were so specific

304
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,100
who was later labeled an atheist

305
00:20:50,100 --> 00:20:52,650
from the Royal Irish Academy,

306
00:20:52,650 --> 00:20:55,440
an accusation that upset him so much,

307
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,930
he became physically ill.

308
00:20:57,930 --> 00:21:00,333
He died just two years later.

309
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,120
- [Narrator] Hutton's writings have influenced

310
00:21:03,120 --> 00:21:05,943
a young lawyer from
name of Charles Lyell.

311
00:21:06,900 --> 00:21:09,003
Lyell had a great passion for geology.

312
00:21:10,410 --> 00:21:13,500
He also had a secret contempt
for the second story

313
00:21:13,500 --> 00:21:18,093
to the Bible and in
specifically, Noah's flood.

314
00:21:19,540 --> 00:21:21,690
Lyell most likely earned this scorn

315
00:21:21,690 --> 00:21:23,760
from reading Hutton's writings

316
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:28,233
and know the result
Hutton persecution.

317
00:21:31,050 --> 00:21:34,020
- Over the centuries there has been
there had been endless attacks

318
00:21:34,020 --> 00:21:35,670
against the Bible.

319
00:21:35,670 --> 00:21:38,190
Some have attempted to ban the Bible altogether.

320
00:21:38,190 --> 00:21:39,810
Some tried to burn it.

321
00:21:39,810 --> 00:21:43,620
Some ruthless individuals
also used prison

322
00:21:43,620 --> 00:21:47,160
and mass killings against
all those who would dare

323
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:48,663
Read and believe the Bible.

324
00:21:50,220 --> 00:21:54,213
These attempts to free the
The world of the Bible has failed.

325
00:21:55,050 --> 00:21:57,690
In reality, all these tactics have proven counterproductive.

326
00:21:57,690 --> 00:22:01,023
and it only increased the
question for the Bible.

327
00:22:02,910 --> 00:22:05,823
Yet, Lyell did something wrong
no one had ever done it before.

328
00:22:06,660 --> 00:22:10,740
He devised a systematic and
carefully planned attack

329
00:22:10,740 --> 00:22:11,763
against the Bible.

330
00:22:12,810 --> 00:22:15,990
His brilliant plan was, without a doubt,

331
00:22:15,990 --> 00:22:18,810
the most effective attack ever launched

332
00:22:18,810 --> 00:22:20,163
against the Holy Book.

333
00:22:21,810 --> 00:22:22,983
What did Lyell do?

334
00:22:30,450 --> 00:22:31,443
He threw rocks!

335
00:22:35,940 --> 00:22:38,370
In a personal letter to
George Scrope in 1830,

336
00:22:39,905 --> 00:22:43,200
Lyell revealed his secret intentions.

337
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:44,033
He wrote,

338
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,240
- I conceived the idea
five or six years ago

339
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,910
that if ever the mosaic
the geology could be established

340
00:22:53,910 --> 00:22:58,653
without offending, it would be
be in a historical sketch.

341
00:22:59,670 --> 00:23:01,470
- Let me translate Old English for you

342
00:23:01,470 --> 00:23:04,890
so you can fully understand what Lyell said.

343
00:23:04,890 --> 00:23:07,620
He was saying, “I came
with idea five

344
00:23:07,620 --> 00:23:10,770
or six years ago that if
always geology second

345
00:23:10,770 --> 00:23:14,550
According to Moses, the Bible could be discredited

346
00:23:14,550 --> 00:23:16,380
without offending his believers,

347
00:23:16,380 --> 00:23:19,707
I would do it by doing
my story."

348
00:23:20,610 --> 00:23:21,780
Did you understand?

349
00:23:21,780 --> 00:23:26,130
Lyell took James' ideas
Hutton ran with them.

350
00:23:26,130 --> 00:23:30,063
A new story.

351
00:23:35,023 --> 00:23:35,856
A history of the Earth

352
00:23:35,856 --> 00:23:39,390
which did not involve any of
this nonsense about global flooding

353
00:23:39,390 --> 00:23:41,670
of which Moses wrote in the Bible,

354
00:23:41,670 --> 00:23:45,780
but rather a new story
which involves profound times.

355
00:23:45,780 --> 00:23:47,400
Who knows how long?

356
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,220
Millions, maybe billions of years.

357
00:23:50,220 --> 00:23:52,503
- We must free science from Moses.

358
00:23:53,730 --> 00:23:57,570
In reality, I am the spiritual
savior of geology.

359
00:23:57,570 --> 00:24:01,350
Free science from
ancient dispensation of Moses.

360
00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:04,980
Remember, you never have to
Attack your opponent head-on.

361
00:24:04,980 --> 00:24:08,610
This only attracts attention
to him and his testimony.

362
00:24:08,610 --> 00:24:11,250
To truly convince your target audience,

363
00:24:11,250 --> 00:24:13,680
you have to ignore it completely
your opponent's argument

364
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:14,700
and compose your story

365
00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:16,863
with which to refute his evidence.

366
00:24:18,120 --> 00:24:20,370
At that point, focus on telling your story.

367
00:24:20,370 --> 00:24:22,530
and telling it very well.

368
00:24:22,530 --> 00:24:24,870
Convince the jury of your story

369
00:24:24,870 --> 00:24:27,183
that's what's best
explain the evidence.

370
00:24:28,380 --> 00:24:31,410
- Lyell conceived the idea
which would influence public opinion

371
00:24:31,410 --> 00:24:35,760
with its new story, replacing
that uncomfortable story

372
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,573
of Noah's flood with its history.

373
00:24:40,590 --> 00:24:43,350
He even formulated one
sentence that summed it up

374
00:24:43,350 --> 00:24:46,953
and he carried out his tactic
into a single catchy slogan.

375
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,250
- And what is this evidence?

376
00:24:50,250 --> 00:24:54,513
Simply this, the present
it is the key to the past.

377
00:24:55,590 --> 00:24:57,090
Did you see what I did?

378
00:24:57,090 --> 00:25:00,270
I just ruled out a global flood
without ever mentioning it,

379
00:25:00,270 --> 00:25:03,360
and I replaced it with my story.

380
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:07,050
A story that allows
only current processes,

381
00:25:07,050 --> 00:25:09,540
no global catastrophe.

382
00:25:09,540 --> 00:25:12,330
- Now, this was a good lawyer tactic,

383
00:25:12,330 --> 00:25:14,310
but it wasn't good science.

384
00:25:14,310 --> 00:25:16,740
In fact, it was unscientific.

385
00:25:16,740 --> 00:25:19,410
True science studies the evidence,

386
00:25:19,410 --> 00:25:22,770
develop a hypothesis e
then test the hypothesis

387
00:25:22,770 --> 00:25:26,160
to test whether the hypothesis
is it correct or not.

388
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,190
Lyell was simply removed
correct scientific procedure

389
00:25:29,190 --> 00:25:30,570
and investigation,

390
00:25:30,570 --> 00:25:33,510
and then using
pseudoscientific methods,

391
00:25:33,510 --> 00:25:38,510
he replaced it with his own
a new predetermined story.

392
00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:41,400
- I simply removed
possibilities arising from the result

393
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,313
of the previous investigation
The investigation began.

394
00:25:45,450 --> 00:25:48,450
I spent a lot of time as
well, traveling the world,

395
00:25:48,450 --> 00:25:49,890
looking for new evidence

396
00:25:49,890 --> 00:25:52,833
with which he should convince
the audience of my new story.

397
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,090
One of those places that I
I visited Niagara Falls.

398
00:25:57,090 --> 00:26:00,480
- The birthplace of Niagara Falls.

399
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,000
It was here that the
The Niagara River overflowed

400
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,910
the escarpment and began digging the gorge.

401
00:26:05,910 --> 00:26:08,760
As you can see, the water
pouring over erode waterfalls

402
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,250
a cave behind the waterfalls.

403
00:26:11,250 --> 00:26:14,130
Eventually the roof of this
cave collapses and waterfalls

404
00:26:14,130 --> 00:26:16,260
step back a few metres.

405
00:26:16,260 --> 00:26:19,050
The water begins to erode a
new cave behind the waterfalls,

406
00:26:19,050 --> 00:26:19,953
and so on.

407
00:26:21,030 --> 00:26:25,320
It is this process that
cut the 10 kilometer long throat.

408
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,780
The gears in Lyell's head
it had to be shot

409
00:26:27,780 --> 00:26:31,470
when he saw the falls and
the gorge they were digging.

410
00:26:31,470 --> 00:26:33,660
Here is the perfect opportunity to show

411
00:26:33,660 --> 00:26:36,060
a slow geological process

412
00:26:36,060 --> 00:26:38,610
which took a very long period of time,

413
00:26:38,610 --> 00:26:41,940
a great example of
a current process

414
00:26:41,940 --> 00:26:43,530
that could be measured.

415
00:26:43,530 --> 00:26:47,220
Erosion rates of the Niagara Gorge.

416
00:26:47,220 --> 00:26:49,710
So, have you studied recession rates?

417
00:26:49,710 --> 00:26:51,570
in the name of good science?

418
00:26:51,570 --> 00:26:55,440
No, instead he asked for the
son of a local geologist

419
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,650
how quickly the gorge was being eroded.

420
00:26:58,650 --> 00:26:59,730
He esteemed the throat

421
00:26:59,730 --> 00:27:03,210
it was roughly cut
About 0.3 feet per year.

422
00:27:03,210 --> 00:27:06,600
So did Lyell make his own estimates?
on the age of the throat

423
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,780
Based on this man's rough estimate?

424
00:27:09,780 --> 00:27:10,770
No.

425
00:27:10,770 --> 00:27:14,100
He started from the assumption that
the place was exaggerating,

426
00:27:14,100 --> 00:27:17,940
and used an erosion
a rate of 1 foot per year.

427
00:27:17,940 --> 00:27:20,850
Using this wild guess, the calculation was simple.

428
00:27:20,850 --> 00:27:23,490
In remaining faithful to his
ambitions and tactics,

429
00:27:23,490 --> 00:27:26,970
Lyell wrote his now famous
book "Principles of Geology".

430
00:27:26,970 --> 00:27:29,670
He kept hammering
home than the present

431
00:27:29,670 --> 00:27:32,580
it is the key to the past,
and in that book he argued

432
00:27:32,580 --> 00:27:36,060
than the Niagara Gorge
it was 35,000 feet long,

433
00:27:36,060 --> 00:27:39,480
it was in the process of erosion
1 foot per year, therefore,

434
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,180
The gorge must be 35,000 years old

435
00:27:42,180 --> 00:27:46,530
and the earth could not
it could be 6,000 years old.

436
00:27:46,530 --> 00:27:49,140
- [Narrator] Everyone who
I read Lyell's book I knew

437
00:27:49,140 --> 00:27:50,580
what he had just done,

438
00:27:50,580 --> 00:27:53,760
because everyone in his time
he knew what the Bible said

439
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,823
The Earth was only 6,000 years old.

440
00:27:58,110 --> 00:28:00,530
Without ever mentioning the Bible, Moses,

441
00:28:00,530 --> 00:28:02,130
or Noah's flood,

442
00:28:02,130 --> 00:28:05,697
Lyell simply disproved everything with "science".

443
00:28:06,570 --> 00:28:09,510
Countless people
who has read Lyell's book

444
00:28:09,510 --> 00:28:12,873
they were convinced that the Bible was a work of fiction.

445
00:28:13,830 --> 00:28:16,590
One of those people was a young man,

446
00:28:16,590 --> 00:28:18,870
a theologian with an interest in science

447
00:28:18,870 --> 00:28:20,820
who traveled the world

448
00:28:20,820 --> 00:28:22,950
on a ship called the Beagle.

449
00:28:22,950 --> 00:28:25,500
His name was Charles Darwin.

450
00:28:25,500 --> 00:28:28,560
- Long after publication
of Lyell's infamous book,

451
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,830
real science was conducted
and the rate of erosion

452
00:28:31,830 --> 00:28:34,830
of the Niagara Gorge was actually measured.

453
00:28:34,830 --> 00:28:37,770
It turns out that the
The local residents' estimate was wrong.

454
00:28:37,770 --> 00:28:39,660
But in the wrong direction.

455
00:28:39,660 --> 00:28:41,550
The waterfalls were actually
eroding at an average rate

456
00:28:41,550 --> 00:28:43,863
by 5-6 feet per year.

457
00:28:44,820 --> 00:28:47,580
Use of legal arguments
catchy tactics and slogans

458
00:28:47,580 --> 00:28:52,020
instead of real science, Lyell
convinced countless people

459
00:28:52,020 --> 00:28:54,600
that the Bible was a work of fiction.

460
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:58,500
The reality was that
Lyell's book was a work of fiction.

461
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:01,500
Lyell had actually led
adequate scientific research

462
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:03,030
and reported the truth?

463
00:29:03,030 --> 00:29:04,770
Erosion rates of the Niagara Gorge

464
00:29:04,770 --> 00:29:06,930
would have been seen
as a support for the story

465
00:29:06,930 --> 00:29:08,913
of the earth according to the Bible.

466
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,900
- [Narrator] Remembering that
the original founders

467
00:29:12,900 --> 00:29:16,320
of the geology considered the
rock layers that we see around

468
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,053
the world as evidence of Noah's flood.

469
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,390
Lyell had the rocks
right in his sights.

470
00:29:24,390 --> 00:29:28,380
His mantra, "the present
it is the key to the past

471
00:29:28,380 --> 00:29:31,050
“It must be the only mantra allowed.”

472
00:29:31,050 --> 00:29:34,680
- He tried to explain the
rock layers around the world

473
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,020
using Hutton's ideas.

474
00:29:37,020 --> 00:29:40,740
These layers did not form
from a worldwide flood,

475
00:29:40,740 --> 00:29:43,620
but rather an incalculable number of times

476
00:29:43,620 --> 00:29:48,060
that the seas happened
sweep away the earth.

477
00:29:48,060 --> 00:29:51,660
Of course, the seas rarely
trespass on the property.

478
00:29:51,660 --> 00:29:56,580
So if a transgression
produces a layer,

479
00:29:56,580 --> 00:29:59,460
then the rock layers
they really add up to many,

480
00:29:59,460 --> 00:30:03,663
many thousands, perhaps millions of years.

481
00:30:04,500 --> 00:30:05,760
So Lyell visits

482
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,090
the fossil cliffs of Joggins, Nova Scotia

483
00:30:09,090 --> 00:30:13,500
and meet the many
polystratified fossil trees

484
00:30:13,500 --> 00:30:15,663
scattered along the cliffs.

485
00:30:17,220 --> 00:30:20,100
Polystrate is a term for
fossils that cut

486
00:30:20,100 --> 00:30:22,740
more than one layer of rock.

487
00:30:22,740 --> 00:30:23,820
Poles for many,

488
00:30:23,820 --> 00:30:27,630
layer for the layers of
rock they cut.

489
00:30:27,630 --> 00:30:30,810
In the case of polylayer
trees here in Joggins,

490
00:30:30,810 --> 00:30:33,270
in reality they are not trees,

491
00:30:33,270 --> 00:30:36,303
but also giant hollow reeds known as lycopods.

492
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,800
The numerous polystratified fossils

493
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,040
it certainly would seem
cause a problem for the idea

494
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:48,573
that the layers follow one another
For many, many years, right?

495
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,140
After all, the top of the plant
it won't stay

496
00:30:52,140 --> 00:30:57,140
for even tens of years while
the trunk is slowly buried,

497
00:30:57,180 --> 00:31:00,690
not to mention thousands or millions of years.

498
00:31:00,690 --> 00:31:03,900
But Lyell had no intention of giving up yet.

499
00:31:03,900 --> 00:31:05,730
He put his creativity to work again

500
00:31:05,730 --> 00:31:10,143
to create another look
of his new story.

501
00:31:11,550 --> 00:31:14,130
Lyell invented the story that these trees

502
00:31:14,130 --> 00:31:16,140
they were buried right where they grew up

503
00:31:16,140 --> 00:31:19,413
from one of several
transgressions of the sea.

504
00:31:20,310 --> 00:31:23,610
So with a little creativity,

505
00:31:23,610 --> 00:31:28,020
Lyell converted another
"challenge" in another "test"

506
00:31:28,020 --> 00:31:30,720
with which to support his new story,

507
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,330
and impress in the minds of readers,

508
00:31:33,330 --> 00:31:36,543
The present is the key to the past.

509
00:31:37,650 --> 00:31:41,400
But once again, O Lyell
he didn't see the evidence,

510
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,560
or they didn't report it.

511
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,430
Lycopods have roots
radiating from the roots,

512
00:31:47,430 --> 00:31:49,710
yet some of the fossil polystratified plants

513
00:31:49,710 --> 00:31:52,530
they have had their roots ripped out.

514
00:31:52,530 --> 00:31:56,520
Proof that plants were
devastated by catastrophe,

515
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,600
transported by water, e
buried where they are now,

516
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,793
and not buried in the place where they grew up.

517
00:32:03,660 --> 00:32:05,610
Occasionally, we find polystratus plants

518
00:32:05,610 --> 00:32:08,310
who had been buried upside down.

519
00:32:08,310 --> 00:32:11,730
Last time I checked, plants don't
they grow very well upside down,

520
00:32:11,730 --> 00:32:15,753
therefore the most probable explanation
it's a flood again.

521
00:32:17,130 --> 00:32:21,000
Let's look at the present
the processes uproot the trees,

522
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,250
Bury them upside down?

523
00:32:23,250 --> 00:32:26,730
If we did, we would call it a catastrophe.

524
00:32:26,730 --> 00:32:28,860
Di certo non lo definiremmo lungo

525
00:32:28,860 --> 00:32:31,143
and a slow geological process.

526
00:32:35,993 --> 00:32:38,519
- [Narrator] And so we see
the beginnings of the war,

527
00:32:38,519 --> 00:32:41,823
a war waged by a poor man
and very few very determined.

528
00:32:42,990 --> 00:32:46,560
A war where science was
tossed around in words,

529
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,860
but not in practice, in
order to add authority

530
00:32:49,860 --> 00:32:52,233
to those who wanted to impose an ideology.

531
00:32:58,620 --> 00:33:01,260
An ideology that was
secretly rooted in the attempt

532
00:33:01,260 --> 00:33:04,353
to discredit the story
of Noah and the flood.

533
00:33:05,940 --> 00:33:09,570
A carefully planned attack
intended to convince people

534
00:33:09,570 --> 00:33:12,333
that the present was the key to the past.

535
00:33:13,410 --> 00:33:15,540
Not the Bible.

536
00:33:15,540 --> 00:33:18,750
A war that attempted to
replace God's judgment

537
00:33:18,750 --> 00:33:21,363
and a world flood with deep times.

538
00:33:23,423 --> 00:33:25,920
Is the present the key to understanding the past?

539
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,720
Or is the Bible the key to the past?

540
00:33:30,667 --> 00:33:33,417
(dramatic music)

541
00:33:42,780 --> 00:33:45,240
When we look at both fossil records

542
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,630
and the biblical account of
the world before the flood,

543
00:33:48,630 --> 00:33:51,630
we see an incredible place.

544
00:33:51,630 --> 00:33:53,040
According to the Bible,

545
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,160
people lived to be almost 1,000 years old,

546
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,230
and giants lived in the earth.

547
00:33:58,230 --> 00:34:01,110
Virtually all life had larger counterparts

548
00:34:01,110 --> 00:34:02,610
in the fossil record.

549
00:34:02,610 --> 00:34:05,823
The dragonflies had a wingspan of about one meter.

550
00:34:07,110 --> 00:34:09,330
The cockroaches were about 30 centimeters long.

551
00:34:09,330 --> 00:34:12,990
Lycopod plants could reach a height of 120 feet (about 36 meters).

552
00:34:12,990 --> 00:34:15,180
The sheep were six feet tall.

553
00:34:15,180 --> 00:34:19,140
In the oceans we find
turtles the size of cars,

554
00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:22,350
and sharks a hundred feet long.

555
00:34:22,350 --> 00:34:25,290
It looks like animals
they didn't eat each other

556
00:34:25,290 --> 00:34:27,090
to survive.

557
00:34:27,090 --> 00:34:30,547
As we read in Genesis 1:30,

558
00:34:30,547 --> 00:34:32,670
"And to every beast of the earth,

559
00:34:32,670 --> 00:34:35,760
and to every bird of the
air, and everything

560
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,150
that crawls on
land where there is life,

561
00:34:39,150 --> 00:34:42,210
I gave every green herb for meat.

562
00:34:42,210 --> 00:34:43,680
And so it was.

563
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,290
What is our Arctic Circle currently?

564
00:34:46,290 --> 00:34:48,537
it had a truly extraordinary variety of animals

565
00:34:48,537 --> 00:34:52,320
But the only place in modernity
times with such variety

566
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:56,670
it is the African Serengeti, the
the usual mammoth suspects

567
00:34:56,670 --> 00:34:59,850
and mastodons, but also
the woolly rhinoceros,

568
00:34:59,850 --> 00:35:03,240
camels, lions, bears, donkeys, horses,

569
00:35:03,240 --> 00:35:06,000
and a multitude of small animals.

570
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,853
The mammoths alone
there were millions.

571
00:35:10,950 --> 00:35:13,680
- This is Cape Spear in Newfoundland.

572
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,590
It is the most eastern
point of North America.

573
00:35:16,590 --> 00:35:21,480
England is that way,
about 3,000 kilometers away.

574
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,580
Yet conventional thinking believes

575
00:35:23,580 --> 00:35:25,770
which most likely in the past,

576
00:35:25,770 --> 00:35:28,593
England would have been right here.

577
00:35:31,620 --> 00:35:35,460
This idea of continental
division or drift of continents

578
00:35:35,460 --> 00:35:37,560
it's actually an old idea,

579
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,010
and the source of this idea
it might be a surprise.

580
00:35:41,010 --> 00:35:43,860
The idea came from the Bible.

581
00:35:43,860 --> 00:35:45,390
- [Narrator] In the 19th century,

582
00:35:45,390 --> 00:35:48,930
Antonio Snider-Pellegrini
he was reading his Bible

583
00:35:48,930 --> 00:35:51,150
and read the creation story in Genesis,

584
00:35:51,150 --> 00:35:52,867
where in chapter 1 we read:

585
00:35:52,867 --> 00:35:56,340
"And God said, 'Let the waters
under the sky they will gather

586
00:35:56,340 --> 00:35:58,410
all together in one place,

587
00:35:58,410 --> 00:36:02,280
and leave the mainland
appear.' And so it was.

588
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,260
And God called the dry land earth,

589
00:36:04,260 --> 00:36:07,830
and gathering together
of the waters called seas.

590
00:36:07,830 --> 00:36:10,110
And God saw that it was good.

591
00:36:10,110 --> 00:36:11,730
Pellegrini deduced

592
00:36:11,730 --> 00:36:14,430
than if the waters were
gathered in one place,

593
00:36:14,430 --> 00:36:17,880
then the earth must too
I've been to one place.

594
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,090
But the earth was currently
divided into continents,

595
00:36:21,090 --> 00:36:24,510
therefore he deduced that the
the continents must have split

596
00:36:24,510 --> 00:36:28,170
and drifted away, probably to
the time of Noah's flood.

597
00:36:28,170 --> 00:36:29,850
He then began to experiment

598
00:36:29,850 --> 00:36:33,600
with adapting the continents
together like pieces of a puzzle.

599
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,360
He also found identical plant fossils

600
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,610
both in Europe and in the United States,

601
00:36:38,610 --> 00:36:42,630
the same plant fossils found
on the east coast of Canada.

602
00:36:42,630 --> 00:36:45,180
This further confirmed his theory.

603
00:36:45,180 --> 00:36:49,500
of the continental divide,
which he published in 1858,

604
00:36:49,500 --> 00:36:51,060
almost six decades

605
00:36:51,060 --> 00:36:54,930
before Alfred Wegener proposed
his model of plate tectonics.

606
00:36:54,930 --> 00:36:58,020
- And of course, this continental
the division is now claimed

607
00:36:58,020 --> 00:37:00,930
took many,
many millions of years,

608
00:37:00,930 --> 00:37:03,930
thus presumably discrediting it
the history of the Earth

609
00:37:03,930 --> 00:37:05,223
according to the Bible.

610
00:37:06,240 --> 00:37:09,510
It's just a biblical idea that's interesting

611
00:37:09,510 --> 00:37:14,160
was hijacked by those who sought
to replace Noah's flood

612
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,910
with deep time, in order
discredit the Bible

613
00:37:17,910 --> 00:37:21,600
from which the idea was born
of the continental divide?

614
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,610
- [Narrator] And so are we
take a look at the world

615
00:37:23,610 --> 00:37:27,210
which was then a gigantic supercontinent

616
00:37:27,210 --> 00:37:30,870
which was a hot period globally,
everything was bigger, healthier,

617
00:37:30,870 --> 00:37:35,010
and they lived longer, except
there was a problem,

618
00:37:35,010 --> 00:37:38,220
the violence and wickedness of man.

619
00:37:38,220 --> 00:37:41,520
In Genesis 6, we see a sad statement

620
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,190
of the regret of God himself.

621
00:37:44,190 --> 00:37:46,950
And God saw the wickedness of man

622
00:37:46,950 --> 00:37:48,600
he was great on earth,

623
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,720
and that every imagination
of the thoughts of his heart

624
00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:54,750
it was just evil all the time.

625
00:37:54,750 --> 00:37:58,740
And the Lord regretted that
had created man on earth,

626
00:37:58,740 --> 00:38:00,087
and this pained him deeply.

627
00:38:00,087 --> 00:38:03,330
And the Lord said: «I will destroy man

628
00:38:03,330 --> 00:38:06,930
that I created from
the face of the earth,

629
00:38:06,930 --> 00:38:11,430
both man and beast,
and the creeping thing,

630
00:38:11,430 --> 00:38:13,710
and the birds of the sky.

631
00:38:13,710 --> 00:38:17,010
Because I regret having done them,

632
00:38:17,010 --> 00:38:20,820
but Noah found grace in
the eyes of the Lord.

633
00:38:20,820 --> 00:38:22,230
The Lord said to Noah:

634
00:38:22,230 --> 00:38:25,500
'Noah, the end of all
The flesh preceded me,

635
00:38:25,500 --> 00:38:28,290
for the earth is full
with violence through them.

636
00:38:28,290 --> 00:38:31,560
And behold, I will destroy
them with the land.

637
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,560
Build yourself a marmot ark
wood, you will make rooms

638
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,350
into the ark, and you will be
toss it in and out

639
00:38:37,350 --> 00:38:40,050
with tone; and this is fashion

640
00:38:40,050 --> 00:38:41,970
of which you will.

641
00:38:41,970 --> 00:38:45,090
The length of the ark
it should be 300 cubits,

642
00:38:45,090 --> 00:38:49,350
its width is 50 cubits,
and its height was 30 cubits.

643
00:38:49,350 --> 00:38:51,870
You will make a window for the ark,

644
00:38:51,870 --> 00:38:55,590
and in a cubit you will finish it above;

645
00:38:55,590 --> 00:38:58,020
and you will close the door of the ark

646
00:38:58,020 --> 00:39:00,180
at his side.

647
00:39:00,180 --> 00:39:04,320
With lower, second and third
stories you will create.

648
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:08,280
And behold, I, myself, do it
bring a flood of waters

649
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,460
on the earth to destroy all flesh,

650
00:39:11,460 --> 00:39:14,760
in which is the breath of
life from under the sky,

651
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,780
and all that is
in the earth they will die.

652
00:39:18,780 --> 00:39:21,990
But with you, will I?
establish my pact,

653
00:39:21,990 --> 00:39:25,560
and you will enter
the ark, you and your children,

654
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:29,040
and your wife, and yours
the wives of the children with you.

655
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,770
And of every living being of all flesh,

656
00:39:31,770 --> 00:39:35,040
two of each kind shall
you bring into the ark

657
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:36,900
to keep them alive with you.

658
00:39:36,900 --> 00:39:41,550
They will be male and female,
of birds of their species,

659
00:39:41,550 --> 00:39:44,070
and of cattle according to their kind,

660
00:39:44,070 --> 00:39:47,760
of every creeping thing of
the earth according to its kind,

661
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,050
two of each kind will come
to you to keep them alive.

662
00:39:52,050 --> 00:39:55,770
And take yourself
of all the food that is eaten,

663
00:39:55,770 --> 00:39:58,020
and you will collect it for yourself,

664
00:39:58,020 --> 00:40:02,100
and it will serve as food
for you and for them.'"

665
00:40:02,100 --> 00:40:04,530
And so for about 100 years,

666
00:40:04,530 --> 00:40:07,140
Noah built the ark following

667
00:40:07,140 --> 00:40:10,470
the exact plan given by God Himself.

668
00:40:10,470 --> 00:40:13,200
It was enormous in its size.

669
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,690
The dimensions indicated were expressed in cubits,

670
00:40:15,690 --> 00:40:18,990
which is the measurement from
from the elbow to the tip of the finger.

671
00:40:18,990 --> 00:40:22,710
Today, that would be a
an average of about 18 inches

672
00:40:22,710 --> 00:40:23,730
or a foot and a half.

673
00:40:23,730 --> 00:40:25,860
This means Noah's ark

674
00:40:25,860 --> 00:40:29,880
it would have been
about 450 feet long,

675
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:34,140
150 feet wide and 90 feet tall.

676
00:40:34,140 --> 00:40:36,480
In other words, it was the size of a ship.

677
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,450
The Santa Maria set sail
across the Atlantic Ocean

678
00:40:39,450 --> 00:40:42,993
and it was very, very
smaller than the ark.

679
00:40:44,250 --> 00:40:46,110
- Wait, wait, wait.

680
00:40:46,110 --> 00:40:49,260
It is possible that
a man and his family

681
00:40:49,260 --> 00:40:50,823
build such a huge ship?

682
00:40:51,690 --> 00:40:54,480
Was there really a global flood?

683
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:59,040
I mean, maybe the story of
Was Noah's flood just an allegory?

684
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,340
Maybe it was a flood
that just hit your area?

685
00:41:02,340 --> 00:41:05,760
How do we know if
Noah actually built an ark,

686
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,260
Not to mention what did he look like?

687
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,070
Even if Lyell was wrong about his science,

688
00:41:11,070 --> 00:41:13,380
maybe he was right
having never existed

689
00:41:13,380 --> 00:41:15,090
a worldwide flood,

690
00:41:15,090 --> 00:41:18,540
and instead the earth is
billions of years

691
00:41:18,540 --> 00:41:21,483
Perhaps the present is the key to the past.

692
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,880
Conveniently, Lyell supplied
with a way to test both

693
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,900
his theory and the Bible
account of the story,

694
00:41:30,900 --> 00:41:33,600
current processes.

695
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,930
Let's look at some
current processes.

696
00:41:36,930 --> 00:41:38,640
Here in Joggins,

697
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,710
the breathtaking tides of the Bay of Fundy

698
00:41:40,710 --> 00:41:43,050
they are the tallest in the world.

699
00:41:43,050 --> 00:41:47,973
About 15 go up and down
meters, 45 feet, twice a day.

700
00:41:49,050 --> 00:41:51,390
As the tides rise and fall,

701
00:41:51,390 --> 00:41:54,900
the action of the water erodes the cliffs,

702
00:41:54,900 --> 00:41:58,470
break the rock with
waves and ice in the sand,

703
00:41:58,470 --> 00:42:00,033
which is washed away.

704
00:42:01,140 --> 00:42:04,953
You can see that the rock
The layers are inclined towards the south.

705
00:42:05,790 --> 00:42:08,460
The layers are made up of different types of rock,

706
00:42:08,460 --> 00:42:12,780
and then, of course, some
The rocks are harder than the others.

707
00:42:12,780 --> 00:42:16,710
The softer rocks are eroded first,

708
00:42:16,710 --> 00:42:19,740
that leaves behind the hardest rocks,

709
00:42:19,740 --> 00:42:22,770
which protrude from the water forming coral reefs.

710
00:42:22,770 --> 00:42:26,310
This phenomenon is called differential erosion.

711
00:42:26,310 --> 00:42:29,040
Rocks erode differently.

712
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,470
Differential erosion.

713
00:42:31,470 --> 00:42:35,790
This is a slow day
process that we can observe

714
00:42:35,790 --> 00:42:37,350
and even measure.

715
00:42:37,350 --> 00:42:39,990
- [Narrator] Differential
erosion is the process

716
00:42:39,990 --> 00:42:43,500
by which different types of
rock or sediment is eroded

717
00:42:43,500 --> 00:42:44,703
at different speeds.

718
00:42:45,720 --> 00:42:48,682
Observe how quickly the sand is eroded...

719
00:42:48,682 --> 00:42:51,515
(water splashes)

720
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,341
Additionally, limestone erodes more slowly.

721
00:42:56,341 --> 00:42:59,174
(water splashes)

722
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:05,332
Sandstone is the slowest
erode of the three.

723
00:43:05,332 --> 00:43:08,165
(water splashes)

724
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,060
Now imagine if all three were eroded

725
00:43:12,060 --> 00:43:14,070
at the same time together,

726
00:43:14,070 --> 00:43:16,920
this is exactly what happened to Joggins,

727
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,560
where rocks have eroded at different rates.

728
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,750
The waves caused erosion

729
00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:24,720
and the continuous
collapse of the coastline,

730
00:43:24,720 --> 00:43:28,650
leaving ridges where the
harder rock erodes more slowly

731
00:43:28,650 --> 00:43:29,763
compared to softer rock.

732
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,510
Softer and weaker rocks
they wear out quickly,

733
00:43:39,510 --> 00:43:42,540
while harder and more
resistant rocks remain

734
00:43:42,540 --> 00:43:45,543
to form ridges, hills or mountains.

735
00:43:47,580 --> 00:43:50,853
- But now let's look up
on top of the cliffs,

736
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,270
where the exact same layers of rock

737
00:43:54,270 --> 00:43:58,560
they have been shorn and have
it was not eroded differently.

738
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:03,560
Something cut through all the rock
perfectly flat layers,

739
00:44:03,750 --> 00:44:06,810
and whatever cut the
The rocks didn't care at all

740
00:44:06,810 --> 00:44:09,723
regarding whether the rock was hard or soft.

741
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:15,120
This flat surface is
called flattening surface.

742
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,030
It was leveled.

743
00:44:18,030 --> 00:44:21,600
This planting surface a
Joggins apparently picks up

744
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,330
about 100 kilometers east

745
00:44:24,330 --> 00:44:27,153
and heads upwards through the
Cape Breton Highlands.

746
00:44:28,020 --> 00:44:31,230
In fact, all the
the mountains had their peaks

747
00:44:31,230 --> 00:44:36,230
cut flat to the same
elevation in a flattening surface.

748
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,240
At the north end of
Cape Breton Highlands,

749
00:44:39,240 --> 00:44:43,080
if we look south,
we can see to what extent

750
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,840
and the flat mountains have been cut off.

751
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,600
If we turn around and
look towards the island

752
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,920
of Newfoundland, let's see the
The flattened mountains continue.

753
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,600
If we cross the Cabot Strait

754
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,430
and head towards the island of Newfoundland,

755
00:44:56,430 --> 00:44:58,260
we are facing the mountains

756
00:44:58,260 --> 00:45:01,950
which were also cut
flat at the same altitude

757
00:45:01,950 --> 00:45:06,950
as the mountains are over 100
miles away in Cape Breton.

758
00:45:07,020 --> 00:45:10,290
If we follow this mountain
chain up to Newfoundland,

759
00:45:10,290 --> 00:45:13,530
all the mountains have been leveled.

760
00:45:13,530 --> 00:45:15,030
It's like a giant with a plane

761
00:45:15,030 --> 00:45:18,630
and a lack of inclination for mountains
I was bored one afternoon

762
00:45:18,630 --> 00:45:20,850
and they leveled all the mountains.

763
00:45:20,850 --> 00:45:24,600
They continue like this for
hundreds of kilometers,

764
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,870
returning to the mainland in Labrador.

765
00:45:27,870 --> 00:45:30,120
- [Narrator] And so the mystery deepens.

766
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:31,533
Who could ever do something like that?

767
00:45:32,430 --> 00:45:36,420
We've seen what's long and slow
geological processes do.

768
00:45:36,420 --> 00:45:39,030
They do not cut planing surfaces.

769
00:45:39,030 --> 00:45:40,923
They cause differential erosion.

770
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,060
Perhaps a glacier flattened these mountains.

771
00:45:45,060 --> 00:45:48,060
By definition, glaciers flow downstream.

772
00:45:48,060 --> 00:45:49,773
There is no descent.

773
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,390
The steepest slope of the
flat surface inclined towards the valley

774
00:45:54,390 --> 00:45:56,313
to 0.15 degrees.

775
00:45:58,110 --> 00:46:01,833
Glaciers carve furrows, not flat surfaces.

776
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:06,420
And erosions leave behind moraines.

777
00:46:06,420 --> 00:46:10,890
None of this is visible on
this enormous flat surface.

778
00:46:10,890 --> 00:46:12,360
- But these planting surfaces

779
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,000
they are found literally all over the world.

780
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:16,500
We are standing on top of one of these

781
00:46:16,500 --> 00:46:19,230
at Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park

782
00:46:19,230 --> 00:46:22,890
on the Alberta border
and Saskatchewan in Canada.

783
00:46:22,890 --> 00:46:25,950
We are on top of a mountain
which, as you can see,

784
00:46:25,950 --> 00:46:28,020
it was cut incredibly flat.

785
00:46:28,020 --> 00:46:32,670
We are at over 1,000 meters, 3,500
here walk above sea level.

786
00:46:32,670 --> 00:46:35,550
What slow and current processes

787
00:46:35,550 --> 00:46:38,643
could cut the top of a
perfectly flat mountain?

788
00:46:40,140 --> 00:46:42,390
Curiously, we have a little clue

789
00:46:42,390 --> 00:46:45,240
about what happened here in Cypress Hills.

790
00:46:45,240 --> 00:46:49,080
The top of the mountain is
covered with rounded boulders

791
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,377
Made of an extremely hard material
rock called quartzite.

792
00:46:53,310 --> 00:46:56,520
Quartzite is basically sand
which has been compressed

793
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:58,530
under enormous heat and pressure

794
00:46:58,530 --> 00:47:01,560
and it turned into an extremely hard rock.

795
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:05,190
Now, interestingly, these
even the rocks are strewn

796
00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:08,910
in strange circular signs.

797
00:47:08,910 --> 00:47:10,980
But the strangest thing
of everything related to these rocks

798
00:47:10,980 --> 00:47:13,890
it's that they didn't come
from Alberta or Saskatchewan.

799
00:47:13,890 --> 00:47:18,813
They came from 800 kilometers away,
500 miles away in Idaho.

800
00:47:20,610 --> 00:47:23,280
What the hell happened here?

801
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:28,280
which would move 800 rocks
kilometers, flat mountains,

802
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,850
and make these strange
Circular marks in these rocks?

803
00:47:32,850 --> 00:47:34,170
- [Narrator] All over the world,

804
00:47:34,170 --> 00:47:37,470
we find hundreds of
water gaps and wind gaps.

805
00:47:37,470 --> 00:47:40,380
This is a classic example of a water gorge.

806
00:47:40,380 --> 00:47:44,550
The water cut a
mountain that gives rise to this canyon

807
00:47:44,550 --> 00:47:46,710
or a crack in the mountain.

808
00:47:46,710 --> 00:47:50,550
But here's the thing,
Water always finds its level.

809
00:47:50,550 --> 00:47:52,500
If we turn sideways,

810
00:47:52,500 --> 00:47:55,770
we find that water might have
he went around the mountain.

811
00:47:55,770 --> 00:47:59,880
Why and how water
up and over the mountain

812
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:01,860
dig a canyon through it?

813
00:48:01,860 --> 00:48:06,570
The Grand Canyon is probably
the most famous water gorge.

814
00:48:06,570 --> 00:48:10,740
The canyon opened up
the lifting of the Colorado dome,

815
00:48:10,740 --> 00:48:15,210
but the water could have gone
around the dome to the south.

816
00:48:15,210 --> 00:48:19,470
Instead, he cut a gigantic one
canyon through

817
00:48:19,470 --> 00:48:21,840
the center of the lift.

818
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,630
A scientist who is examining
the numerous gorges

819
00:48:24,630 --> 00:48:27,270
we find it noticed all over the world

820
00:48:27,270 --> 00:48:30,750
which it almost seemed
the river took a detour

821
00:48:30,750 --> 00:48:32,880
to cut the mountain.

822
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:37,830
The question then arises: did he do it?
the river forms the canyon,

823
00:48:37,830 --> 00:48:41,130
Or did the canyon form the river?

824
00:48:41,130 --> 00:48:43,860
Other canyons that were
cut like this,

825
00:48:43,860 --> 00:48:46,620
but they have no water
Flowing through them now,

826
00:48:46,620 --> 00:48:49,140
they are called wind gates.

827
00:48:49,140 --> 00:48:52,710
They pose the same mystery
how they were originally cut

828
00:48:52,710 --> 00:48:54,840
through running water.

829
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,750
But the water had to flow uphill

830
00:48:57,750 --> 00:49:00,300
to dig the canyon,

831
00:49:00,300 --> 00:49:03,810
when water simply could
they went around the mountain.

832
00:49:03,810 --> 00:49:07,290
- Here in the beautiful
Wastelands of Alberta, Canada,

833
00:49:07,290 --> 00:49:11,610
we find numerous numbers
of dinosaur fossil bones.

834
00:49:11,610 --> 00:49:13,710
It's a big mystery how
of what exactly it was

835
00:49:13,710 --> 00:49:15,600
who killed the dinosaurs.

836
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,000
In most cases we find the dinosaurs torn to pieces

837
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:22,230
and mixed together, often
several dinosaurs torn to pieces

838
00:49:22,230 --> 00:49:23,970
and mixed together.

839
00:49:23,970 --> 00:49:26,850
When we find theirs
bones still united,

840
00:49:26,850 --> 00:49:29,490
dinosaurs are almost invariably

841
00:49:29,490 --> 00:49:33,840
in horrible deadly convulsions,
head pulled back

842
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:38,133
as far as he can go, indicating
his fight for survival.

843
00:49:39,390 --> 00:49:42,450
What happened to these dinosaurs?

844
00:49:42,450 --> 00:49:44,250
One of the most common fossils found

845
00:49:44,250 --> 00:49:47,760
in dinosaur bone deposits
they are not dinosaurs,

846
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,940
but rather fish and clams,

847
00:49:50,940 --> 00:49:54,867
who were buried alive
in the closed position.

848
00:49:55,770 --> 00:49:58,563
When a clam dies, it opens.

849
00:49:59,430 --> 00:50:02,490
Clams that are quickly buried
they can also dig the road

850
00:50:02,490 --> 00:50:05,100
from extraordinarily deep sediments,

851
00:50:05,100 --> 00:50:09,060
but these clams were buried
I live with dinosaurs,

852
00:50:09,060 --> 00:50:11,373
along with many fish remains.

853
00:50:12,510 --> 00:50:14,160
While we are told that dinosaurs

854
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,400
they were killed by an asteroid
hitting the ground,

855
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,570
The reality is that there is
This theory has enormous problems.

856
00:50:21,570 --> 00:50:25,050
The crater it was supposed to be
formed by the asteroid

857
00:50:25,050 --> 00:50:29,133
is the Chicxulub crater on the
Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico.

858
00:50:29,970 --> 00:50:32,790
There was a rare mineral called iridium

859
00:50:32,790 --> 00:50:35,130
found in asteroids.

860
00:50:35,130 --> 00:50:38,370
This rare mineral is also
found in a layer of rock

861
00:50:38,370 --> 00:50:41,340
called KT border,

862
00:50:41,340 --> 00:50:45,330
the contact between the
Cretaceous and Tertiary strata,

863
00:50:45,330 --> 00:50:47,940
where the dinosaurs are said to have disappeared

864
00:50:47,940 --> 00:50:49,920
from the fossil record.

865
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,410
It was therefore hypothesized that dinosaurs

866
00:50:52,410 --> 00:50:54,393
he had been killed by an asteroid.

867
00:50:55,530 --> 00:50:58,500
But an asteroid won't tear the dinosaurs apart

868
00:50:58,500 --> 00:51:00,480
and mix their bones.

869
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,300
Dinosaurs, buried with
with the head pulled back

870
00:51:03,300 --> 00:51:06,933
They undoubtedly do this because of the water.

871
00:51:07,770 --> 00:51:11,310
Asphyxiation will cause a
animal, or even a human being,

872
00:51:11,310 --> 00:51:15,060
to pull their heads back while they are dying.

873
00:51:15,060 --> 00:51:18,600
Furthermore, scientists have discovered
those dead chickens,

874
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:22,893
when immersed in cold water,
they immediately withdraw their heads.

875
00:51:23,790 --> 00:51:28,790
Finding closed fish and clams
buried with the dinosaurs

876
00:51:29,070 --> 00:51:31,890
is a clear indication that
the dinosaurs were killed

877
00:51:31,890 --> 00:51:35,550
in a flood, not because of an asteroid.

878
00:51:35,550 --> 00:51:39,780
But this was no digression
river during the spring flood.

879
00:51:39,780 --> 00:51:42,600
The layers in which
these dinosaurs are found

880
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,240
they have provincial dimensions.

881
00:51:45,240 --> 00:51:49,020
For example, the Morrison
The training spans 10 states

882
00:51:49,020 --> 00:51:51,960
and 3 Canadian provinces.

883
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:56,220
This was not a modern day
process that created this layer.

884
00:51:56,220 --> 00:52:01,220
It was a flood of enormous proportions.
the scale of a worldwide flood.

885
00:52:01,710 --> 00:52:04,740
- [Narrator] We have several
mysteries that are presented to us.

886
00:52:04,740 --> 00:52:06,720
How the hell do you dig a canyon?

887
00:52:06,720 --> 00:52:09,150
cross a mountain with water?

888
00:52:09,150 --> 00:52:11,940
When the water can go around the mountain,

889
00:52:11,940 --> 00:52:15,603
Using current processes, this is not possible.

890
00:52:16,470 --> 00:52:20,880
How do you shave the ends of your hair evenly?
of entire mountain ranges?

891
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,160
There are no current trials

892
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,623
that we know of who do this.

893
00:52:26,910 --> 00:52:31,020
- How it tears extremely
hard rocks in Idaho,

894
00:52:31,020 --> 00:52:33,810
transport them for 800 kilometers,

895
00:52:33,810 --> 00:52:36,060
slamming into them
around each other, surrounding them,

896
00:52:36,060 --> 00:52:38,370
and creating a flat-topped mountain

897
00:52:38,370 --> 00:52:41,973
in Canada at 3,500 feet above sea level?

898
00:52:43,050 --> 00:52:47,760
Current processes cannot
explain any of this evidence.

899
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,860
However, as it all turned out,

900
00:52:49,860 --> 00:52:53,523
all these mysteries are
explained simply with one answer.

901
00:52:54,395 --> 00:52:55,893
A global flood.

902
00:52:57,287 --> 00:53:00,037
(dramatic music)

903
00:53:06,630 --> 00:53:09,000
- [Narrator] Noah's ark
it is almost always depicted

904
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,800
like the shape of a boat.

905
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,100
But what was its shape and how do we know it?

906
00:53:14,100 --> 00:53:18,480
- Well, the interesting thing
there are some people,

907
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,240
definitely not the
majority, but few people,

908
00:53:21,240 --> 00:53:24,930
who would say that the Bible
he doesn't actually tell us

909
00:53:24,930 --> 00:53:26,553
what Noah's Ark looked like.

910
00:53:27,510 --> 00:53:31,710
Now, I'm that kind of guy
who looks at things,

911
00:53:31,710 --> 00:53:35,400
researchers things, they come back
in Hebrew and Greek

912
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:38,130
to see if statements like these are true.

913
00:53:38,130 --> 00:53:42,750
It turns out there is
there is plenty of it in the Bible

914
00:53:42,750 --> 00:53:44,030
to give us a basic idea

915
00:53:44,030 --> 00:53:46,860
of what Noah's Ark actually looked like.

916
00:53:46,860 --> 00:53:49,710
Now, if you were to ask the question,

917
00:53:49,710 --> 00:53:52,830
if we were to start with just the Bible,

918
00:53:52,830 --> 00:53:55,920
we could get an idea of what
What did Noah's Ark look like?

919
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,360
Now, that's an interesting question

920
00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:59,673
and it's actually a
Easy question to answer.

921
00:54:00,660 --> 00:54:04,890
Dozens and dozens of times individuals

922
00:54:04,890 --> 00:54:09,210
they approached the Scripture on their own
using appropriate hermeneutics,

923
00:54:09,210 --> 00:54:12,110
exegetical techniques,
taking a look at Hebrew

924
00:54:12,110 --> 00:54:15,090
in the Old Testament,
taking a look at the Greek

925
00:54:15,090 --> 00:54:16,590
in the New Testament.

926
00:54:16,590 --> 00:54:19,183
It is important not to look
right in the Old Testament,

927
00:54:19,183 --> 00:54:21,630
but also in the New Testament.

928
00:54:21,630 --> 00:54:24,150
Now, let me summarize.

929
00:54:24,150 --> 00:54:27,060
Starting with the Reformation, of course,

930
00:54:27,060 --> 00:54:29,580
Martin Luther, a very famous person

931
00:54:29,580 --> 00:54:30,660
in the history of the Church,

932
00:54:30,660 --> 00:54:33,570
especially the evangelical church,

933
00:54:33,570 --> 00:54:37,230
Martin Luther depicted the Ark in 1523

934
00:54:37,230 --> 00:54:40,980
in one of his publications as a box

935
00:54:40,980 --> 00:54:42,603
or a chest, if you prefer.

936
00:54:43,740 --> 00:54:48,570
What you find is Johannes
Buteo in 1554 discusses

937
00:54:48,570 --> 00:54:51,900
the New Testament word “kibotos.”

938
00:54:51,900 --> 00:54:56,460
You see the New Testament callings
Noah's vessel, a "kibotos",

939
00:54:56,460 --> 00:54:58,920
the exact same word, by the way
it is the Ark of the Covenant

940
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,330
in the New Testament.

941
00:55:00,330 --> 00:55:04,200
A Greek word that speaks of both
of those particular boats.

942
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,750
Now, there's no doubt that
the Ark of the Covenant

943
00:55:06,750 --> 00:55:09,030
it was a box-shaped vessel.

944
00:55:09,030 --> 00:55:12,180
Why ever the
Holy Spirit, choose that word

945
00:55:12,180 --> 00:55:15,660
to describe Noah's Ark
if it wasn't a box

946
00:55:15,660 --> 00:55:17,310
or a chest-shaped vase?

947
00:55:17,310 --> 00:55:22,310
In 1554, Johannes Buteo says
that the Ark was a treasure chest.

948
00:55:23,070 --> 00:55:24,120
Now, obviously, this is based

949
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,190
on the New Testament word kibotos,

950
00:55:26,190 --> 00:55:28,443
as well as the Old Testament term tebah.

951
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:34,400
Now, Buteo says that a chest
does not require further definitions,

952
00:55:34,890 --> 00:55:36,270
And I think I agree with him.

953
00:55:36,270 --> 00:55:40,080
Now, Johannes Buteo was a surveyor,

954
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:45,080
and says what a chest it is
a rectangular parallelepiped.

955
00:55:45,150 --> 00:55:48,240
Now, what the hell is that
a rectangular parallelepiped?

956
00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:49,920
Well, if you take a look at

957
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,430
what surveyors talk about
there, it has the shape of a box,

958
00:55:53,430 --> 00:55:55,413
but more tending towards rectangular.

959
00:55:56,460 --> 00:55:58,230
Now you can proceed along the line,

960
00:55:58,230 --> 00:56:00,720
and you can take a look
at Benito Arias Montano,

961
00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:03,630
another scholar, 1569.

962
00:56:03,630 --> 00:56:06,150
You can take a look at
17th century scholars,

963
00:56:06,150 --> 00:56:10,710
as John Wilkins did
study on the ark in 1668,

964
00:56:10,710 --> 00:56:14,640
followed by Matthew Poole in
1669 and I have his commentary

965
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:18,450
and discusses Hebrew
also discusses the fact

966
00:56:18,450 --> 00:56:21,150
that the New Testament calls it kibotos,

967
00:56:21,150 --> 00:56:25,740
Noah's kibots and that's it
a box or trunk specifically

968
00:56:25,740 --> 00:56:26,763
made of wood.

969
00:56:27,630 --> 00:56:29,400
And this is important
because some people say,

970
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,340
well wait a minute how
come in the Septuagint

971
00:56:32,340 --> 00:56:34,800
this is the Greek version
of the Old Testament,

972
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:36,840
translated long before the time of Christ

973
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:39,870
by alleged 70-72 scholars.

974
00:56:39,870 --> 00:56:42,990
They were Jewish scholars,
Jewish individuals.

975
00:56:42,990 --> 00:56:47,990
If kiboto is a good substitute
for the Hebrew word tebah,

976
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:53,840
then why is it not used
for the vessel of Moses?

977
00:56:53,970 --> 00:56:56,640
Because in Exodus 2:3, we
see exactly the same word

978
00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:01,110
in Hebrew, tebah, which Moses' mother took.

979
00:57:01,110 --> 00:57:06,110
which meant procured or had
done, and she took this tebah,

980
00:57:06,300 --> 00:57:08,430
which was made of papyrus reeds.

981
00:57:08,430 --> 00:57:10,140
And some people say it's obvious

982
00:57:10,140 --> 00:57:14,880
if it is made of papyrus
reeds, it cannot be square.

983
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,070
Well, that's actually completely false.

984
00:57:17,070 --> 00:57:20,460
I spent a lot of time studying

985
00:57:20,460 --> 00:57:22,740
the archeology of the ancient Egyptians.

986
00:57:22,740 --> 00:57:25,440
And what you will find is from
the very first dynasties

987
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:28,290
for the entire journey
time of Moses later,

988
00:57:28,290 --> 00:57:32,190
what the Egyptians did
many box-shaped vases

989
00:57:32,190 --> 00:57:33,900
made from papyrus reeds.

990
00:57:33,900 --> 00:57:36,330
Now, if we take the text as it is written,

991
00:57:36,330 --> 00:57:40,710
he had to get a chest
made of papyrus reeds.

992
00:57:40,710 --> 00:57:42,480
The interesting thing is that

993
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:47,460
the Egyptians actually did it
trunks made of papyrus reeds.

994
00:57:47,460 --> 00:57:50,790
In reality they weren't
baskets, they were trunks.

995
00:57:50,790 --> 00:57:52,770
Now, if I were to put
my baby in the Nile River,

996
00:57:52,770 --> 00:57:54,780
I think I'd like some
type of intrinsic coverage

997
00:57:54,780 --> 00:57:56,970
so that birds and vultures

998
00:57:56,970 --> 00:57:58,800
Don't gouge out his eyes.

999
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:02,010
Now, something a little strange to
Think about it, but it's true.

1000
00:58:02,010 --> 00:58:04,350
So everything written in the Scriptures is consistent.

1001
00:58:04,350 --> 00:58:06,300
It fits perfectly.

1002
00:58:06,300 --> 00:58:10,650
God said to Noah, “Build
ti un'arca" in English.

1003
00:58:10,650 --> 00:58:13,080
And that word in English
comes from the Latin "arca"

1004
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:16,200
which also means box or crate.

1005
00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:18,930
So the very fact that we are
talk about an ark in English,

1006
00:58:18,930 --> 00:58:20,910
most of us don't know the
the true definition of it,

1007
00:58:20,910 --> 00:58:22,950
but an ark is a chest or box.

1008
00:58:22,950 --> 00:58:25,130
And this brings us back to the word "kibotos".

1009
00:58:25,130 --> 00:58:28,440
in the New Testament, as well as "tebah"

1010
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:29,760
in the Old Testament.

1011
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,550
Some believe that "tebah"
it is a word of Egyptian origin

1012
00:58:32,550 --> 00:58:37,080
from "debate", meaning
a chest or coffin.

1013
00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:40,320
So, just from the Scriptures,
has been studied dozens of

1014
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:41,760
and dozens of times,

1015
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,160
and if you're talking
about Martin Luther,

1016
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:47,730
Johannes Buteo, Benito Arias Montano,

1017
00:58:47,730 --> 00:58:51,930
John Wilkins, Matthew
Poole, Athanasius Kircher,

1018
00:58:51,930 --> 00:58:52,950
and many others,

1019
00:58:52,950 --> 00:58:55,590
they all came basically
to the same conclusion

1020
00:58:55,590 --> 00:58:58,260
a box-shaped container with dimensions

1021
00:58:58,260 --> 00:58:59,400
which are indicated in Genesis,

1022
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,670
300 cubits by 50 cubits by 30 cubits.

1023
00:59:02,670 --> 00:59:07,470
Now sometimes the roof system
of these boats differed

1024
00:59:07,470 --> 00:59:09,810
because writing doesn't do that
give us those details,

1025
00:59:09,810 --> 00:59:11,850
sometimes the roofs reached peaks,

1026
00:59:11,850 --> 00:59:13,860
sometimes they were completely flat,

1027
00:59:13,860 --> 00:59:16,740
Sometimes they were vaulted or rounded.

1028
00:59:16,740 --> 00:59:20,160
But nevertheless, dozens
and dozens of scholars

1029
00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:22,230
I've already only looked at the Bible,

1030
00:59:22,230 --> 00:59:24,120
and they came up with basically

1031
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:25,410
the same conclusion.

1032
00:59:25,410 --> 00:59:28,530
Over 90% of scholars
from the beginning of the 16th century

1033
00:59:28,530 --> 00:59:31,980
until the early 1700s agreed upon
about what the Ark looked like

1034
00:59:31,980 --> 00:59:33,870
from the Bible alone.

1035
00:59:33,870 --> 00:59:35,580
Here's the interesting thing.

1036
00:59:35,580 --> 00:59:39,480
When you look at what
the early church believed

1037
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,630
about Noah's Ark, now,
there was a discussion

1038
00:59:42,630 --> 00:59:44,700
among individuals like Origen,

1039
00:59:44,700 --> 00:59:45,533
trying to understand

1040
00:59:45,533 --> 00:59:48,300
How do all these animals fit on the Ark?

1041
00:59:48,300 --> 00:59:51,930
And so, he actually decided that the cubit

1042
00:59:51,930 --> 00:59:54,180
which was used in the scriptures

1043
00:59:54,180 --> 00:59:58,410
it was Egyptian geometry
cubit, almost 10 feet.

1044
00:59:58,410 --> 01:00:02,280
Now in 1554, Johannes
Buteo says: "It's crazy.

1045
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:04,170
A normal cubit of about a foot and a half

1046
01:00:04,170 --> 01:00:06,030
or 18 inches would be sufficient

1047
01:00:06,030 --> 01:00:08,130
to be able to accommodate all the necessary animals."

1048
01:00:08,130 --> 01:00:12,150
You see, and so the origin actually
extended in this way further

1049
01:00:12,150 --> 01:00:13,560
what it was supposed to be.

1050
01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:15,690
Johannes Buteo points out in 1554

1051
01:00:15,690 --> 01:00:18,513
that if we are consistent
with that particular cubit,

1052
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:24,180
then we have David and Goliath,
and David bends down,

1053
01:00:24,180 --> 01:00:26,040
and picks up Goliath's head,

1054
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:29,010
which is now nearly 10 feet in diameter.

1055
01:00:29,010 --> 01:00:31,530
Obviously, this is absolutely impossible.

1056
01:00:31,530 --> 01:00:33,960
And so it is clear that
we're probably talking

1057
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:36,990
an 18, maybe 22 or 22.5 inch cube.

1058
01:00:36,990 --> 01:00:41,250
A regular cubit, not a
Egyptian geometric cubit.

1059
01:00:41,250 --> 01:00:45,030
However, the early church
I have created several works of art

1060
01:00:45,030 --> 01:00:47,880
linked to Noah and the ark.

1061
01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,070
For example, there are different depictions

1062
01:00:50,070 --> 01:00:54,030
which are located under the city
of Rome in the catacombs.

1063
01:00:54,030 --> 01:00:57,300
And what you will often see
find is Noah standing

1064
01:00:57,300 --> 01:01:01,140
in a literal box, perhaps
about three feet in diameter,

1065
01:01:01,140 --> 01:01:03,660
just a box floating on water.

1066
01:01:03,660 --> 01:01:06,540
And here comes a dove
with an olive branch.

1067
01:01:06,540 --> 01:01:10,170
And Noah has his hands
arranged like this.

1068
01:01:10,170 --> 01:01:13,110
This is the period between the 2nd and 3rd centuries.

1069
01:01:13,110 --> 01:01:16,470
You will also find other similar depictions

1070
01:01:16,470 --> 01:01:21,470
of Noah standing in a literal
The chest is perhaps 1.37 meters in diameter.

1071
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:23,430
You will see the lid in the background,

1072
01:01:23,430 --> 01:01:26,490
You can see the latch and lock.

1073
01:01:26,490 --> 01:01:31,020
Now this has to come to
the minds of certain people

1074
01:01:31,020 --> 01:01:32,700
and make them ask the question,

1075
01:01:32,700 --> 01:01:35,550
why would anyone

1076
01:01:35,550 --> 01:01:39,180
depict Noah's Ark as a
Box or crate, literally?

1077
01:01:39,180 --> 01:01:41,100
Well, the answer is actually quite simple,

1078
01:01:41,100 --> 01:01:43,650
because of the words of the Scriptures.

1079
01:01:43,650 --> 01:01:47,340
And so we see that the first
500 years of the early church,

1080
01:01:47,340 --> 01:01:50,340
almost exclusively, them
depict Noah's boat

1081
01:01:50,340 --> 01:01:53,073
like a box or an actual crate.

1082
01:01:54,870 --> 01:01:57,180
If we jump forward a few hundred years,

1083
01:01:57,180 --> 01:01:58,320
another few hundred years,

1084
01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:00,060
A few hundred years later,

1085
01:02:00,060 --> 01:02:02,370
we see these chests increase in size.

1086
01:02:02,370 --> 01:02:03,570
They get bigger.

1087
01:02:03,570 --> 01:02:05,070
They get bigger.

1088
01:02:05,070 --> 01:02:08,700
And finally, towards the
time of the Reformation,

1089
01:02:08,700 --> 01:02:11,970
We see that scholars do not
it only took the basic form

1090
01:02:11,970 --> 01:02:13,590
this is spoken of in the scriptures,

1091
01:02:13,590 --> 01:02:15,720
but they took the details
and the dimensions

1092
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:17,760
which are discussed in the book of Genesis,

1093
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:21,540
and they put them together
to finally represent accurately

1094
01:02:21,540 --> 01:02:25,747
this chest-shaped box
structure known as today,

1095
01:02:25,747 --> 01:02:26,757
"Noah's Ark."

1096
01:02:28,890 --> 01:02:32,670
- So we know that the Ark
it would have had the shape of a box.

1097
01:02:32,670 --> 01:02:36,480
The meaning of the Ark
it didn't have to pass anywhere,

1098
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:40,530
but rather its purpose was
simply to survive the flood.

1099
01:02:40,530 --> 01:02:44,070
The conventional ship
The form was not necessary,

1100
01:02:44,070 --> 01:02:45,213
it only has the shape of a barge.

1101
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,420
But many engineers and
skeptics said

1102
01:02:48,420 --> 01:02:52,380
that such a large ship could
not be constructed of wood.

1103
01:02:52,380 --> 01:02:54,960
Now they speak through the
experience of those in England

1104
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:56,880
which, in the Middle Ages,

1105
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,790
he tried to build a lot
large wooden ships.

1106
01:02:59,790 --> 01:03:03,240
The ships would have broken apart
under their own weight

1107
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:05,013
and wave stresses.

1108
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:10,560
The English were building out of wood
ships barely 300 feet long,

1109
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,590
with steel reinforcement,
and gaps would appear

1110
01:03:13,590 --> 01:03:16,203
in the hull of the ship that lets water in.

1111
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,080
Such arguments are actually revealing

1112
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:22,020
a hint of modern arrogance.

1113
01:03:22,020 --> 01:03:25,080
We can't do it, then
It's not possible to do that.

1114
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:27,390
After all, we are smarter
of our ancestors,

1115
01:03:27,390 --> 01:03:30,483
we have modern technology
and stuff like that, right?

1116
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:33,870
Yet, the controversy is still very heated.

1117
01:03:33,870 --> 01:03:36,150
about how the ancients built things

1118
01:03:36,150 --> 01:03:39,060
like the pyramids of Egypt.

1119
01:03:39,060 --> 01:03:42,390
The trilithonic stones of Baalbek in Lebanon

1120
01:03:42,390 --> 01:03:45,720
they were used to the foundation
of the temple of Jupiter.

1121
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:50,720
The stones are estimated
1,000 tons each.

1122
01:03:51,180 --> 01:03:54,120
We essentially have one
cranes around the world

1123
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:55,890
who can lift those stones,

1124
01:03:55,890 --> 01:03:59,103
yet the ancients somehow
with them they built a temple.

1125
01:03:59,970 --> 01:04:03,570
You immediately understand why
some have appealed to aliens

1126
01:04:03,570 --> 01:04:06,510
and superior technology, it's a mystery

1127
01:04:06,510 --> 01:04:08,940
as for how the hell the ancients

1128
01:04:08,940 --> 01:04:11,013
could have accomplished such a feat.

1129
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:16,143
The reality is that it was
Simply built by smart people.

1130
01:04:16,980 --> 01:04:18,840
Once the stone has been carved,

1131
01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:22,410
you simply build the wheels
around the stones,

1132
01:04:22,410 --> 01:04:25,503
which they are literally
rolled up in place.

1133
01:04:26,700 --> 01:04:28,290
So we see the ancients performing

1134
01:04:28,290 --> 01:04:33,290
incredible feats of engineering
at least 2000 years ago

1135
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,670
that rival what we can do

1136
01:04:35,670 --> 01:04:39,663
with our supposedly modern one
technologies and machinery.

1137
01:04:42,570 --> 01:04:45,960
Like Mladyov and Mladyov
they point out in their article,

1138
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,630
the construction of
Great Pyramid of Giza

1139
01:04:48,630 --> 01:04:52,740
it was a monumental project
on multiple levels.

1140
01:04:52,740 --> 01:04:55,260
We know approximately how long it took

1141
01:04:55,260 --> 01:04:56,913
To build the Great Pyramid.

1142
01:04:58,020 --> 01:05:00,120
According to Herodotus,

1143
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:04,170
it was all built during
the kingdom of Pharaoh Khufu,

1144
01:05:04,170 --> 01:05:07,530
which corresponded to a maximum of 23 years.

1145
01:05:07,530 --> 01:05:10,560
Workers cut, moved and positioned

1146
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:15,560
approximately 2.3 million stones
right in the Great Pyramid.

1147
01:05:17,190 --> 01:05:22,190
If we use 23 years as a figure,
working 365 days a year,

1148
01:05:22,950 --> 01:05:27,510
that's 8,395 days ago
build the pyramid.

1149
01:05:27,510 --> 01:05:32,510
This means cutting, moving and
placing 274 blocks per day,

1150
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:35,700
with blocks weigh on average

1151
01:05:35,700 --> 01:05:38,133
of almost three tons each.

1152
01:05:39,060 --> 01:05:41,760
Think about how this might
it can be done in modern times.

1153
01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:44,730
Even with modern and heavy ones
equipment involved,

1154
01:05:44,730 --> 01:05:47,460
It would be a tall order.

1155
01:05:47,460 --> 01:05:50,490
Some of the blocks found by Egyptologists

1156
01:05:50,490 --> 01:05:55,290
had the words "this side up"
written in hieroglyphics.

1157
01:05:55,290 --> 01:05:57,240
The explanation is simple.

1158
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:00,060
Just like the Trilithon stones of Baalbek,

1159
01:06:00,060 --> 01:06:03,240
the blocks were simply
rolled from the quarry

1160
01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:06,810
to construction
site that uses "rockers"

1161
01:06:06,810 --> 01:06:09,240
that Egyptologists have discovered.

1162
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:12,633
Four rockers convert
the block in a wheel.

1163
01:06:13,590 --> 01:06:15,180
Not far from Egypt,

1164
01:06:15,180 --> 01:06:17,520
in an ancient wreck
found off the coast

1165
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,160
of the Greek island of Antikythera,

1166
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:23,160
we find incredible ancient technologies,

1167
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:27,060
like the Antikytheran mechanism,

1168
01:06:27,060 --> 01:06:30,000
an incredibly complex geared device

1169
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,140
which predicted the positions
of the planets and moons.

1170
01:06:34,140 --> 01:06:38,160
It is estimated to be
about 2,000 years.

1171
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,290
The complexity of this
rival device that

1172
01:06:40,290 --> 01:06:45,240
of complex mechanical systems
it was not known until 1900

1173
01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:46,413
after its construction.

1174
01:06:47,340 --> 01:06:50,310
Were the ancients really devoid of intellect?

1175
01:06:50,310 --> 01:06:52,023
and technical skills?

1176
01:06:54,282 --> 01:06:57,720
Most shocking of all is
that at the beginning of the 1400s,

1177
01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:02,310
the Chinese built a fleet of
"treasure junks" or ships,

1178
01:07:02,310 --> 01:07:05,460
which according to some estimates
they say they were up to 600 feet tall

1179
01:07:05,460 --> 01:07:10,460
or 180 meters long, a third
once again larger than Noah's ark.

1180
01:07:10,830 --> 01:07:13,440
They had nine trees made of bamboo

1181
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:17,220
and they are said to have transported
500 passengers or more,

1182
01:07:17,220 --> 01:07:20,643
as well as a huge
amount of cargo, honey.

1183
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,690
Naturally, the skeptics cheered
engineering specifications,

1184
01:07:24,690 --> 01:07:27,780
stating that such ships were of impossible size.

1185
01:07:27,780 --> 01:07:31,050
They absolutely couldn't stay
float without breaking.

1186
01:07:31,050 --> 01:07:35,550
Then in 1962, the helm
of one of these treasure ships

1187
01:07:35,550 --> 01:07:38,370
was brought to light by archaeologists.

1188
01:07:38,370 --> 01:07:41,550
The rudder stock was 36 feet long,

1189
01:07:41,550 --> 01:07:45,243
pointing a ship upwards
about 500 feet long.

1190
01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:49,530
Just because we don't
know how they did it,

1191
01:07:49,530 --> 01:07:52,050
that doesn't mean they couldn't do it.

1192
01:07:52,050 --> 01:07:53,910
And so it also happened to Noah.

1193
01:07:53,910 --> 01:07:56,520
Just because we don't know how he did it,

1194
01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:58,683
that doesn't mean he wouldn't be able to do it.

1195
01:08:00,540 --> 01:08:04,530
The Bible tells us that God
specifically instructed Noah

1196
01:08:04,530 --> 01:08:07,023
build the ark with gopher wood.

1197
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:09,693
What on earth is gopher wood?

1198
01:08:10,650 --> 01:08:14,370
The word is unique, appearing
only once in the Bible.

1199
01:08:14,370 --> 01:08:17,883
God's instructions to Noah
on how to build the ark.

1200
01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,213
Now, the mole tree is no more.

1201
01:08:22,500 --> 01:08:24,000
As Arnold Mendez points out,

1202
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:27,060
we can deduce what gopher wood is

1203
01:08:27,060 --> 01:08:31,620
and get some too
profound theological intuition

1204
01:08:31,620 --> 01:08:33,690
that could enlighten us
in our understanding

1205
01:08:33,690 --> 01:08:36,453
of this strange war on Noah's flood.

1206
01:08:37,770 --> 01:08:41,100
When we search for the word
"gopher" in the dictionary,

1207
01:08:41,100 --> 01:08:44,610
we find many forms of the word.

1208
01:08:44,610 --> 01:08:48,840
Gopher, gofer, gaufer and gaufre.

1209
01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:52,350
They all refer to a lamination
or stratification process,

1210
01:08:52,350 --> 01:08:54,120
like the layers of a biscuit

1211
01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:56,700
or the lace layers of a dress.

1212
01:08:56,700 --> 01:09:00,840
- [Narrator] The French colonists
groundhogs called gophers

1213
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,900
because they dug tunnels
Underground, in layers.

1214
01:09:03,900 --> 01:09:06,300
Gophers actually were
named in honor of stratification

1215
01:09:06,300 --> 01:09:07,980
or wafer process.

1216
01:09:07,980 --> 01:09:09,450
In fact, here in Canada,

1217
01:09:09,450 --> 01:09:12,150
where we have two officials
languages on everything,

1218
01:09:12,150 --> 01:09:15,060
you can even see a mole on this package

1219
01:09:15,060 --> 01:09:16,800
of sugar wafer biscuits.

1220
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:19,320
The biscuits are layered wafers.

1221
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:23,940
The gopher is not a type of wood,
but rather a woodworking process.

1222
01:09:23,940 --> 01:09:27,840
A cross-lamination of
wood in stratified sheets,

1223
01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:30,570
use of tone inside and outside.

1224
01:09:30,570 --> 01:09:34,800
Tradition states that Noah
he used a form of birch bark resin

1225
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,020
for gluing mole wood together.

1226
01:09:37,020 --> 01:09:39,150
The Greeks and Romans were known

1227
01:09:39,150 --> 01:09:41,700
also use birch bark resin.

1228
01:09:41,700 --> 01:09:44,310
In fact, Neanderthal spears have been found

1229
01:09:44,310 --> 01:09:47,250
to have their spearheads glued to it.

1230
01:09:47,250 --> 01:09:49,350
He was incredibly strong,

1231
01:09:49,350 --> 01:09:52,170
rivaling our modern superglues.

1232
01:09:52,170 --> 01:09:56,820
Once again, we see how our ancestors
they were anything but stupid.

1233
01:09:56,820 --> 01:10:00,270
In fact, the resin of birch bark
It's also simple to prepare.

1234
01:10:00,270 --> 01:10:03,990
Noah's family would simply
put the birch bark in a container,

1235
01:10:03,990 --> 01:10:05,913
made specifically for this purpose.

1236
01:10:06,870 --> 01:10:09,240
It had a lid to prevent oxygen from entering,

1237
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:10,770
and a hole in the bottom

1238
01:10:10,770 --> 01:10:13,440
from which birch oil dripped.

1239
01:10:13,440 --> 01:10:16,710
Loading it with birch bark, a
the fire is lit around the pot

1240
01:10:16,710 --> 01:10:19,500
which literally cooks
the oil extracted from the bark.

1241
01:10:19,500 --> 01:10:23,070
Oil drips from
hole in a collection container.

1242
01:10:23,070 --> 01:10:25,920
The oil is then further refined by heating.

1243
01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:28,200
to bring it to the right temperature.

1244
01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:31,860
When it is poured on
wood hardens quickly

1245
01:10:31,860 --> 01:10:34,620
in a robust, almost plastic state.

1246
01:10:34,620 --> 01:10:38,280
It acts both as glue
and a waterproof sealant

1247
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:39,720
for gopher wood.

1248
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:43,440
Noah was ordered to put
throw both inside

1249
01:10:43,440 --> 01:10:45,600
and outside the walls.

1250
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:47,700
Obviously it is waterproof.

1251
01:10:47,700 --> 01:10:50,250
The reality is that Noah's Ark

1252
01:10:50,250 --> 01:10:54,060
it was essentially done
very thick plywood.

1253
01:10:54,060 --> 01:10:57,420
- But not only was the
unusually robust construction,

1254
01:10:57,420 --> 01:11:00,180
they also had several
building materials.

1255
01:11:00,180 --> 01:11:01,290
Remember what we said

1256
01:11:01,290 --> 01:11:03,960
that in the past the plants were larger?

1257
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:07,110
Well, trees were no exception.

1258
01:11:07,110 --> 01:11:09,780
And fossil trees were
they found that it was estimated that

1259
01:11:09,780 --> 01:11:14,780
at least 450 feet, or 135 meters high.

1260
01:11:15,390 --> 01:11:16,560
- [Narrator] For comparison,

1261
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:20,400
the statue of Christ the Redeemer
in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,

1262
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,430
it is 125 feet tall.

1263
01:11:23,430 --> 01:11:27,900
The Statue of Liberty is 151 feet tall,

1264
01:11:27,900 --> 01:11:32,340
and the Brooklyn Bridge reaches a height of 276 feet.

1265
01:11:32,340 --> 01:11:36,660
Even the Great Pyramid
at Giza it is 430 feet high.

1266
01:11:36,660 --> 01:11:40,950
Now imagine trees 450 feet tall.

1267
01:11:40,950 --> 01:11:43,020
- That means Noah could maybe

1268
01:11:43,020 --> 01:11:45,810
they used full-length wooden beams

1269
01:11:45,810 --> 01:11:47,850
with which to build his ark.

1270
01:11:47,850 --> 01:11:51,030
This would mean that the ship
could be built with very few,

1271
01:11:51,030 --> 01:11:56,030
perhaps no junction in the
entire length of the hull.

1272
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,950
Therefore, he did not have weak joints

1273
01:11:58,950 --> 01:12:02,550
that we need to put in
our modern ships today,

1274
01:12:02,550 --> 01:12:05,670
due to size limitations of our trees.

1275
01:12:05,670 --> 01:12:07,860
- [Narrator] But there are several ways

1276
01:12:07,860 --> 01:12:12,210
in which it could be laminated
the wood to build the ark.

1277
01:12:12,210 --> 01:12:16,020
You could stack the wood in
layers one on top of the other,

1278
01:12:16,020 --> 01:12:17,970
just like grain elevators

1279
01:12:17,970 --> 01:12:19,860
of the West were built.

1280
01:12:19,860 --> 01:12:23,670
But most likely what Noah did
was to build the walls

1281
01:12:23,670 --> 01:12:26,550
in vertical layers, like this one.

1282
01:12:26,550 --> 01:12:27,900
Think of a bridge.

1283
01:12:27,900 --> 01:12:31,260
If a bridge is built
with square elements

1284
01:12:31,260 --> 01:12:36,260
at 90 degree angles, the
The bridge will not be very strong.

1285
01:12:36,570 --> 01:12:38,880
When a downward force is applied,

1286
01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:41,220
like when a vehicle
cross the bridge,

1287
01:12:41,220 --> 01:12:44,943
It will bend and then, over time, break.

1288
01:12:45,810 --> 01:12:50,490
The maximum resistance of wood
lies in its tensile strength.

1289
01:12:50,490 --> 01:12:54,150
That is, when it is
pulled along the grain.

1290
01:12:54,150 --> 01:12:55,980
Taking this fact into account,

1291
01:12:55,980 --> 01:12:59,310
you can make the bridge incredibly strong

1292
01:12:59,310 --> 01:13:02,160
creating cross-reinforcement Xs.

1293
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,010
If there is a vehicle in
the center of the bridge,

1294
01:13:05,010 --> 01:13:08,340
its weight is acting
down on the bridge,

1295
01:13:08,340 --> 01:13:12,000
and it's pulling these diagonal elements.

1296
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,910
This is called being in tension.

1297
01:13:14,910 --> 01:13:18,120
To balance this, when
hits this vertical element,

1298
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:20,730
this is in compression.

1299
01:13:20,730 --> 01:13:22,500
Let's follow that line to the end.

1300
01:13:22,500 --> 01:13:26,760
Tension, compression,
tension, compression.

1301
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:29,850
Noah's ark was essentially a box.

1302
01:13:29,850 --> 01:13:32,040
Any stress that pushes you down
on one of the walls

1303
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:35,520
it would make you want the wall
flex and flatten.

1304
01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:40,020
If you make a box, the whole
The box will tend to fall flat.

1305
01:13:40,020 --> 01:13:43,560
If you add X structures to
the wall, will distribute

1306
01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:46,620
the load and strengthen
the wall considerably.

1307
01:13:46,620 --> 01:13:49,620
If you do the same with
the top, bottom and sides,

1308
01:13:49,620 --> 01:13:52,890
then this box will be incredibly sturdy.

1309
01:13:52,890 --> 01:13:56,700
Now imagine many, many of
these X structures built

1310
01:13:56,700 --> 01:13:58,800
in the walls of Noah's Ark,

1311
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:01,440
layer upon layer of these X-shaped structures.

1312
01:14:01,440 --> 01:14:04,920
This would make the Ark incredibly sturdy.

1313
01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:08,340
Apparently, even the
layered construction method

1314
01:14:08,340 --> 01:14:13,340
of Noah's Ark had depth
Divine inspiration and symbolism.

1315
01:14:14,310 --> 01:14:17,910
- In the original Hebrew
language, that word "gopher"

1316
01:14:17,910 --> 01:14:22,910
it is very similar to two others
the words "kofer" and "kaphar".

1317
01:14:23,730 --> 01:14:25,410
Often in Hebrew, related words

1318
01:14:25,410 --> 01:14:28,380
they were found to have a small modification,

1319
01:14:28,380 --> 01:14:32,430
and this produces a profound
pun in Hebrew

1320
01:14:32,430 --> 01:14:34,530
as all three related words

1321
01:14:34,530 --> 01:14:38,040
have been used with care for
describe the construction

1322
01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:39,183
of Noah's Ark.

1323
01:14:40,357 --> 01:14:43,890
"Kaphar" means to purify,
make atonement,

1324
01:14:43,890 --> 01:14:47,707
make reconciliation, or
to cover with pitch.

1325
01:14:47,707 --> 01:14:51,930
"Kopher" means the price of
a life, a ransom, a bribe,

1326
01:14:51,930 --> 01:14:55,443
asphalt, a coating of pitch,
or the name of a plant.

1327
01:14:56,790 --> 01:15:01,147
When we read Genesis 6:14
with these words we read,

1328
01:15:01,147 --> 01:15:03,360
“Build yourself an ark of cypress wood;

1329
01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:06,930
rooms you will do in
the ark, and the kaphar

1330
01:15:06,930 --> 01:15:09,357
in and out with Kopher."

1331
01:15:10,650 --> 01:15:13,860
The play on words recalls
return to sacrifice

1332
01:15:13,860 --> 01:15:17,670
covering our sins, an atonement.

1333
01:15:17,670 --> 01:15:19,980
Jesus Christ is introduced
in the scriptures

1334
01:15:19,980 --> 01:15:22,200
as our atonement,

1335
01:15:22,200 --> 01:15:24,990
the Son of God who would
be sacrificed for us

1336
01:15:24,990 --> 01:15:27,180
to cover our sins.

1337
01:15:27,180 --> 01:15:29,070
The apostle Paul went one step further,

1338
01:15:29,070 --> 01:15:32,820
saying that "let's put it on
Christ as a dress,"

1339
01:15:32,820 --> 01:15:34,173
Christ protects us.

1340
01:15:35,250 --> 01:15:38,700
So also the method itself
construction of Noah's Ark

1341
01:15:38,700 --> 01:15:41,040
it was symbolic of Christ.

1342
01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:45,030
The Ark was an atonement,
even using the same word

1343
01:15:45,030 --> 01:15:47,673
for Christ elsewhere in the Bible.

1344
01:15:49,980 --> 01:15:52,860
But the symbolism between
Noah's ark and Christ

1345
01:15:52,860 --> 01:15:56,583
it goes far beyond
construction of the boat.

1346
01:15:57,810 --> 01:16:02,130
In fact, the powerful and
meticulous allusions to Christ

1347
01:16:02,130 --> 01:16:04,230
could be one of the reasons

1348
01:16:04,230 --> 01:16:07,860
because people are like that
tenacious in their attack

1349
01:16:07,860 --> 01:16:11,010
about the story of Noah and the flood.

1350
01:16:11,010 --> 01:16:14,640
Noah's flood was the first
judgment on all humanity.

1351
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:18,420
For 120 years, Noah warned
the people of God's judgment

1352
01:16:18,420 --> 01:16:21,240
to come and pointed to the ark

1353
01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:24,450
as salvation from future judgment,

1354
01:16:24,450 --> 01:16:25,983
provided freely by God.

1355
01:16:26,970 --> 01:16:30,990
Everything people had to do
he heard the warning, he obeyed,

1356
01:16:30,990 --> 01:16:32,250
and board the ship.

1357
01:16:32,250 --> 01:16:35,460
- [Narrator] 2,500 years later,

1358
01:16:35,460 --> 01:16:39,210
a man he claims to be
the son of that same God

1359
01:16:39,210 --> 01:16:40,410
came to Earth.

1360
01:16:40,410 --> 01:16:42,570
There are only two places in the Bible

1361
01:16:42,570 --> 01:16:46,110
where God sent an angel to name
a child who was about to be born.

1362
01:16:46,110 --> 01:16:50,040
Mary, the mother of
Jesus, and to Zechariah,

1363
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:53,250
the father of the man who
he would be Jesus' cousin,

1364
01:16:53,250 --> 01:16:54,660
John the Baptist.

1365
01:16:54,660 --> 01:16:58,350
You could understand why
God would have gone further

1366
01:16:58,350 --> 01:17:00,990
send an angel to name the child

1367
01:17:00,990 --> 01:17:03,630
that would be the only begotten son of God.

1368
01:17:03,630 --> 01:17:06,720
But it's a very unusual situation.
how far God has gone

1369
01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:11,720
tell Zechariah to call his
son of miraculous birth, John.

1370
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:13,500
Why John?

1371
01:17:13,500 --> 01:17:16,410
We have read that John the
Baptist was the voice

1372
01:17:16,410 --> 01:17:19,770
in the desert who would like to
symbolically baptize people

1373
01:17:19,770 --> 01:17:20,943
in the Jordan River.

1374
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:28,830
Ultimately, it had to
baptize Jesus Christ himself.

1375
01:17:28,830 --> 01:17:31,580
(dramatic music)

1376
01:17:37,110 --> 01:17:41,010
And God would show John a
sign so he knew

1377
01:17:41,010 --> 01:17:45,453
that Jesus was the Christ, the only begotten Son of God.

1378
01:17:46,590 --> 01:17:51,590
The sign was the Spirit of
God descending on Christ

1379
01:17:51,690 --> 01:17:54,393
in the form of a dove.

1380
01:17:57,570 --> 01:18:01,290
We must first ask ourselves, why on
the land was John performing

1381
01:18:01,290 --> 01:18:03,780
this strange ritual known as baptism?

1382
01:18:03,780 --> 01:18:07,230
Well, baptism it was
symbol of Noah's flood.

1383
01:18:07,230 --> 01:18:10,530
In fact, the whole event was
to understand the symbolism

1384
01:18:10,530 --> 01:18:12,330
of Noah's flood to the Jews

1385
01:18:12,330 --> 01:18:15,873
who knew the
story of Noah and the flood.

1386
01:18:16,710 --> 01:18:19,710
At the end of the flood,
Noah had released a dove

1387
01:18:19,710 --> 01:18:22,530
which for the first time he returned with
an olive branch showing

1388
01:18:22,530 --> 01:18:26,313
that dry land was available
again, and the plants were growing.

1389
01:18:27,180 --> 01:18:29,430
When Noah released the dove again,

1390
01:18:29,430 --> 01:18:34,430
he never returned until
at the time Christ was baptized.

1391
01:18:35,730 --> 01:18:39,510
Because the Spirit of God
take the shape of a dove?

1392
01:18:39,510 --> 01:18:43,290
Because it symbolized
Noah and the great judgment,

1393
01:18:43,290 --> 01:18:44,250
the flood.

1394
01:18:44,250 --> 01:18:48,900
- John the Baptist was also
he was given the same name as Noah.

1395
01:18:48,900 --> 01:18:52,083
Hebrew is read from right to left.

1396
01:18:53,130 --> 01:18:55,800
And Noah is written in different ways,

1397
01:18:55,800 --> 01:19:00,633
Nu, Nun, Noah, Noa, Noe, No and Nao.

1398
01:19:01,530 --> 01:19:05,940
Many other languages like
since the Greeks are read from left to right.

1399
01:19:05,940 --> 01:19:08,970
And so, during the transliteration
names from Hebrew,

1400
01:19:08,970 --> 01:19:12,180
often the names would be
transliterated backwards

1401
01:19:12,180 --> 01:19:14,940
because the reader was reading
in a different direction

1402
01:19:14,940 --> 01:19:16,500
than Hebrew.

1403
01:19:16,500 --> 01:19:19,410
And so we see Noah's name
in other languages like,

1404
01:19:19,410 --> 01:19:20,610
Aon, On, Oan.

1405
01:19:22,444 --> 01:19:24,870
And so you can start
see how the name Noah

1406
01:19:24,870 --> 01:19:27,714
it actually appears in other languages.

1407
01:19:27,714 --> 01:19:32,193
Oannes, Johan, Johanne, John, Jan, Ian.

1408
01:19:33,450 --> 01:19:35,760
You can see the female forms, Joanne,

1409
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:40,170
Joanna, Hannah, Ioanna, Joan,
Jan, Jane, Janet, Janice,

1410
01:19:40,170 --> 01:19:41,610
and Jean.

1411
01:19:41,610 --> 01:19:45,843
They all have the same name
and all these terms refer to the grace of God.

1412
01:19:47,070 --> 01:19:50,763
But Noah found favor in the eyes of God.

1413
01:19:52,230 --> 01:19:55,380
- [Narrator] Noah was the
voice crying in the desert.

1414
01:19:55,380 --> 01:19:57,300
He warned of impending judgment

1415
01:19:57,300 --> 01:20:00,870
and pointed to the ark of
salvation from this judgment.

1416
01:20:00,870 --> 01:20:04,110
It was enough to believe.

1417
01:20:04,110 --> 01:20:07,170
John the Baptist, too
given the same name as Noah,

1418
01:20:07,170 --> 01:20:09,630
it was also the voice in the desert,

1419
01:20:09,630 --> 01:20:13,050
final day warning
of the judgment to come

1420
01:20:13,050 --> 01:20:15,660
and pointing to Christ as salvation

1421
01:20:15,660 --> 01:20:17,460
from that future judgment,

1422
01:20:17,460 --> 01:20:21,720
which was given freely to all
who would believe in Christ.

1423
01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:26,280
John baptized Christ,
symbolizing Noah's flood,

1424
01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:29,490
and the Spirit of God
descended on Christ

1425
01:20:29,490 --> 01:20:33,270
in the form of a dove,
another hint of symbolism

1426
01:20:33,270 --> 01:20:38,220
at the first great judgment
on humanity, Noah's flood,

1427
01:20:38,220 --> 01:20:41,490
and a nod to God's grace and mercy

1428
01:20:41,490 --> 01:20:44,970
to all those who would
just believe and listen

1429
01:20:44,970 --> 01:20:46,320
to the warning.

1430
01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:50,220
The Bible tells us that God
closed the door of Noah's ark,

1431
01:20:50,220 --> 01:20:54,330
sealing the fate of both those who
they heard God's plea to obey

1432
01:20:54,330 --> 01:20:56,970
and those who did not listen.

1433
01:20:56,970 --> 01:21:00,870
For 120 years, Noah warned
the people of judgment

1434
01:21:00,870 --> 01:21:04,980
come, and all they had
do it to escape God's judgment

1435
01:21:04,980 --> 01:21:08,190
it was believing and obtaining salvation.

1436
01:21:08,190 --> 01:21:11,283
- Whose fault was it?
that those people are dead?

1437
01:21:12,300 --> 01:21:14,943
Whose fault was it?
Are those children dead?

1438
01:21:16,110 --> 01:21:18,480
Like Noah, John the Baptist warned

1439
01:21:18,480 --> 01:21:22,020
of the next final judgement
and pointed to Christ

1440
01:21:22,020 --> 01:21:25,140
like salvation from
the judgment to come,

1441
01:21:25,140 --> 01:21:28,023
a judgment that has yet to be made.

1442
01:21:29,370 --> 01:21:32,910
Perhaps this offers us food for thought on the war

1443
01:21:32,910 --> 01:21:35,850
against the story of Noah and the flood.

1444
01:21:35,850 --> 01:21:40,440
Evidence around the world
left behind by Noah's flood

1445
01:21:40,440 --> 01:21:44,940
it's a constant reminder
of God's judgment,

1446
01:21:44,940 --> 01:21:48,180
and a warning of the final judgment,

1447
01:21:48,180 --> 01:21:52,740
the great white throne
judgment at the end of time.

1448
01:21:52,740 --> 01:21:55,440
Maybe this war against
the Bible had nothing to do with

1449
01:21:55,440 --> 01:21:59,070
with science, but it was, understandably,

1450
01:21:59,070 --> 01:22:04,070
people they don't want to be
remembering one's own mortality,

1451
01:22:04,140 --> 01:22:06,930
and the fact that they
they were at the mercy of a God

1452
01:22:06,930 --> 01:22:08,823
who could very well judge them.

1453
01:22:10,050 --> 01:22:12,330
Some scoff at the idea of Noah's flood,

1454
01:22:12,330 --> 01:22:15,270
asking why God couldn't
they were more creative

1455
01:22:15,270 --> 01:22:17,400
in his method of judgment.

1456
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:19,770
Such scoffers fail to understand

1457
01:22:19,770 --> 01:22:24,000
that they just deeply
they answered their question themselves.

1458
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:26,370
If God used something like fire,

1459
01:22:26,370 --> 01:22:29,670
essentially
leave no traces.

1460
01:22:29,670 --> 01:22:34,670
Instead, a global flood leaves
to support evidence on a global scale.

1461
01:22:36,690 --> 01:22:38,280
Such provocative evidence

1462
01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:40,500
that scoffers have an incredible time

1463
01:22:40,500 --> 01:22:45,024
and the effort in trying to
try to downplay such evidence.

1464
01:22:45,024 --> 01:22:47,774
(dramatic music)

1465
01:22:55,830 --> 01:22:57,990
- [Narrator] The question
“Did the flood really happen?”

1466
01:22:57,990 --> 01:22:59,760
and “How did the flood happen?”

1467
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,430
They are two completely separate issues.

1468
01:23:02,430 --> 01:23:04,440
We could answer yes to one

1469
01:23:04,440 --> 01:23:06,540
without being able to respond to the other,

1470
01:23:06,540 --> 01:23:09,660
we may be able to demonstrate
what a worldwide flood

1471
01:23:09,660 --> 01:23:13,590
it happened and yet it didn't
know the hows or whys.

1472
01:23:13,590 --> 01:23:15,510
We certainly don't lack documents

1473
01:23:15,510 --> 01:23:19,440
of a catastrophic flood that
it left an indelible impression

1474
01:23:19,440 --> 01:23:21,540
in the mind of humanity.

1475
01:23:21,540 --> 01:23:24,240
Hundreds of cultures around the world
the world has legends,

1476
01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:26,490
history or mythology of the past

1477
01:23:26,490 --> 01:23:29,280
when the world was devastated by a flood

1478
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:32,370
and very few were saved
on board a vessel

1479
01:23:32,370 --> 01:23:34,350
something to do with animals.

1480
01:23:34,350 --> 01:23:37,350
And you have to understand,
it's like wandering

1481
01:23:37,350 --> 01:23:40,440
through the jungles and
meet a tribe

1482
01:23:40,440 --> 01:23:43,380
which was isolated
from the rest of the world

1483
01:23:43,380 --> 01:23:45,750
and discovering that they have a history

1484
01:23:45,750 --> 01:23:47,970
like that of Noah and the ark.

1485
01:23:47,970 --> 01:23:51,420
But with all these stories
of a flood and a boat,

1486
01:23:51,420 --> 01:23:53,640
How do we know which one is correct?

1487
01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:55,830
In fact, many skeptics have said

1488
01:23:55,830 --> 01:23:58,530
than the biblical story
of Noah and the ark

1489
01:23:58,530 --> 01:24:02,190
it was simply plagiarized
from the Epic of Gilgamesh,

1490
01:24:02,190 --> 01:24:05,640
an ancient history found
written on clay tablets.

1491
01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:08,250
Such an accusation misses the point.

1492
01:24:08,250 --> 01:24:10,620
than perhaps the Epic
of Gilgamesh was written

1493
01:24:10,620 --> 01:24:14,340
with a history of flooding because
there was a great flood.

1494
01:24:14,340 --> 01:24:17,010
And to determine whether
or not the biblical story

1495
01:24:17,010 --> 01:24:21,120
of Noah and the flood was copied
from the Epic of Gilgamesh,

1496
01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:23,130
just take the time

1497
01:24:23,130 --> 01:24:25,380
read the Epic of Gilgamesh

1498
01:24:25,380 --> 01:24:27,270
to see that it is radically different

1499
01:24:27,270 --> 01:24:30,600
compared to the biblical story
and simply not feasible.

1500
01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:34,740
For example, the Ark in
The Epic of Gilgamesh was a cube.

1501
01:24:34,740 --> 01:24:37,260
Cubes don't work well at sea,

1502
01:24:37,260 --> 01:24:39,090
they are terribly unstable,

1503
01:24:39,090 --> 01:24:40,980
and would continue to capsize over and over again.

1504
01:24:40,980 --> 01:24:44,220
On the other hand, the models
built to size

1505
01:24:44,220 --> 01:24:48,000
of Noah's Ark in the Bible
it has proven incredibly stable

1506
01:24:48,000 --> 01:24:51,330
in wave tank tests, it was even able to roll up

1507
01:24:51,330 --> 01:24:55,113
at almost 90 degrees and it would
however, they settle into an upright position.

1508
01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:57,240
Research conducted

1509
01:24:57,240 --> 01:25:00,090
world class
Korean Research Institute

1510
01:25:00,090 --> 01:25:04,770
of the naval and ocean facility
in South Korea only showed

1511
01:25:04,770 --> 01:25:08,490
how feasible the Noah's Ark project was,

1512
01:25:08,490 --> 01:25:11,223
at least second
the biblical story

1513
01:25:12,120 --> 01:25:13,770
The other reports we find around

1514
01:25:13,770 --> 01:25:17,700
the world has similarities
to the biblical story,

1515
01:25:17,700 --> 01:25:20,430
but of course they were
distorted over time,

1516
01:25:20,430 --> 01:25:24,420
transformation of accounts
in an obvious mythology.

1517
01:25:24,420 --> 01:25:28,560
The biblical story is
the only plausible explanation.

1518
01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:31,980
However, the fact that
we find hundreds of legends,

1519
01:25:31,980 --> 01:25:36,180
myths and history
records of a giant flood

1520
01:25:36,180 --> 01:25:41,010
there is compelling evidence that
it was a global flood.

1521
01:25:41,010 --> 01:25:43,770
Again, we need to
actually look to see

1522
01:25:43,770 --> 01:25:47,340
what the bible says about
this global flood

1523
01:25:47,340 --> 01:25:51,093
in order to determine what
exactly this would have happened.

1524
01:25:51,990 --> 01:25:55,830
We find the report of the flood
same in chapter 7 of Genesis.

1525
01:25:55,830 --> 01:25:58,080
Examining the grammar of the passage,

1526
01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:00,780
Barrack and Sigler pointed out

1527
01:26:00,780 --> 01:26:02,790
that the water didn't rise enough

1528
01:26:02,790 --> 01:26:07,050
to float Noah's ark until the fortieth day.

1529
01:26:07,050 --> 01:26:09,150
This is over five weeks.

1530
01:26:09,150 --> 01:26:12,090
Noah's flood did not happen overnight.

1531
01:26:12,090 --> 01:26:15,630
and the waters continued
increase for months.

1532
01:26:15,630 --> 01:26:19,110
We read that Noah's Ark
landed on Mount Ararat

1533
01:26:19,110 --> 01:26:21,390
the 150th day.

1534
01:26:21,390 --> 01:26:24,030
The flood didn't happen overnight.

1535
01:26:24,030 --> 01:26:26,460
It took weeks to cover that territory.

1536
01:26:26,460 --> 01:26:30,000
So from this description, we
several things can be deduced.

1537
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:33,300
Tides are influenced
from the moon and the sun,

1538
01:26:33,300 --> 01:26:35,970
pulling the oceans, which creates a wave

1539
01:26:35,970 --> 01:26:38,130
that runs around the Earth.

1540
01:26:38,130 --> 01:26:41,160
High tide occurs approximately every 12 hours.

1541
01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:44,550
Right now, our tides
they stop when they hit the ground.

1542
01:26:44,550 --> 01:26:47,160
What the researchers discovered
in computer models

1543
01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,620
was that if the continents submerged,

1544
01:26:49,620 --> 01:26:52,800
the wave can accumulate
higher and higher each time

1545
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:54,450
goes around the planet.

1546
01:26:54,450 --> 01:26:57,210
And so we would see two
things during the beginning

1547
01:26:57,210 --> 01:26:58,500
of the flood.

1548
01:26:58,500 --> 01:27:01,230
There would be tsunamis every 12 hours,

1549
01:27:01,230 --> 01:27:04,290
but every tidal wave would
be superior to the last

1550
01:27:04,290 --> 01:27:06,540
because the water level was rising.

1551
01:27:06,540 --> 01:27:09,780
When the flood began,
the first tidal wave

1552
01:27:09,780 --> 01:27:12,930
would bring in and put
down a layer of sediment

1553
01:27:12,930 --> 01:27:15,000
because the sea floor was rising,

1554
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,480
the next tidal wave would be
reach higher than the last one,

1555
01:27:18,480 --> 01:27:22,170
laying another layer of
sediment above the first.

1556
01:27:22,170 --> 01:27:25,260
The next tidal wave would be
go back higher,

1557
01:27:25,260 --> 01:27:27,840
depositing another layer of sediment.

1558
01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:31,140
This has happened over and over again,

1559
01:27:31,140 --> 01:27:33,780
until all the ground was covered with water,

1560
01:27:33,780 --> 01:27:36,900
without anything being able to stop the
the impetus of anomalous waves.

1561
01:27:36,900 --> 01:27:40,830
During low tide, the dinosaurs
and people were walking around

1562
01:27:40,830 --> 01:27:43,200
on the newly formed tidal flats,

1563
01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:46,290
leave footprints in
mud that would later harden

1564
01:27:46,290 --> 01:27:48,120
in fossil footprints.

1565
01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:50,910
And so, if there were a worldwide flood,

1566
01:27:50,910 --> 01:27:54,210
we would see layers of rock
deposited all over the world,

1567
01:27:54,210 --> 01:27:58,053
which is exactly what we see,
and it is precisely the proof

1568
01:27:58,053 --> 01:28:02,010
that Lyell and others have tried to
explanations with deep time.

1569
01:28:02,010 --> 01:28:04,470
But could Lyell's mantra be correct?

1570
01:28:04,470 --> 01:28:06,630
Is the present the key to the past?

1571
01:28:06,630 --> 01:28:09,330
Or is the Bible the key to the past?

1572
01:28:09,330 --> 01:28:10,710
But equally important

1573
01:28:10,710 --> 01:28:13,170
as the flood approaches the land,

1574
01:28:13,170 --> 01:28:15,840
it is the water that leaves the earth.

1575
01:28:15,840 --> 01:28:18,750
The water leaving the earth
that's what I would have done

1576
01:28:18,750 --> 01:28:22,020
such a spectacular landscape sculpture.

1577
01:28:22,020 --> 01:28:25,680
Indeed, many of our mysteries
are solved quite simply.

1578
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,770
Coriolis forces are what cause hurricanes.

1579
01:28:28,770 --> 01:28:32,610
rotate counterclockwise
in the Northern Hemisphere,

1580
01:28:32,610 --> 01:28:36,000
and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

1581
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:39,030
It is caused by the rotation of the Earth.

1582
01:28:39,030 --> 01:28:42,300
We currently have such
currents in our oceans,

1583
01:28:42,300 --> 01:28:45,120
but these are limited
by continents.

1584
01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:47,250
When the continents are submerged,

1585
01:28:47,250 --> 01:28:49,200
Enormous currents are unleashed,

1586
01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:52,290
free from the constraints of continental masses.

1587
01:28:52,290 --> 01:28:55,320
Computer models have
revealed that these vortices

1588
01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:59,040
can reach speeds of 40
up to 80 meters per second,

1589
01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:03,960
which equals 140
up to 280 kilometers per hour,

1590
01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:07,770
or 90 to 180 miles per hour.

1591
01:29:07,770 --> 01:29:11,220
- Water moving at speed
well below those numbers

1592
01:29:11,220 --> 01:29:14,970
produces what engineers call cavitation.

1593
01:29:14,970 --> 01:29:17,010
The water moves very fast,

1594
01:29:17,010 --> 01:29:19,020
and so when it passes over a hill,

1595
01:29:19,020 --> 01:29:21,690
he can't make a sharp turn.

1596
01:29:21,690 --> 01:29:25,350
What happens is that it produces
perfect vacuum bubble,

1597
01:29:25,350 --> 01:29:28,920
which sucks up the water and channels it to its place.

1598
01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:30,600
The water is quite heavy

1599
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:33,810
and acts like an incredibly powerful hammer.

1600
01:29:33,810 --> 01:29:37,290
Cavitation can literally pulverize steel,

1601
01:29:37,290 --> 01:29:41,070
and that's what cavitation is for
so carefully taken into consideration

1602
01:29:41,070 --> 01:29:43,890
in the design of ship propellers.

1603
01:29:43,890 --> 01:29:47,100
- [Narrator] Imagine a flood
of biblical proportions,

01:29:47,100 --> 01:29:50,490
such a powerful flood
reshape the earth.

1605
01:29:50,490 --> 01:29:54,600
In the midst of this chaos, a hidden
Force carved the bedrock.

1606
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:59,600
Cavitation, a process in which
The fury of the water becomes explosive.

1607
01:29:59,610 --> 01:30:02,580
Cavitation occurs when water flows so quickly

1608
01:30:02,580 --> 01:30:05,160
that the local pressure decreases
below the vapor pressure

1609
01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:09,690
of dissolved air, forming
steam and gas bubbles.

1610
01:30:09,690 --> 01:30:12,720
In extreme conditions
of a catastrophic flood,

1611
01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:16,560
with water flowing through
steep and narrow channels,

1612
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:20,640
these bubbles form in the
nuclei of powerful vortices,

1613
01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:25,080
vortices breaking away from
obstacles in the flow.

1614
01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:28,260
While these bubbles are blown away
in areas of higher pressure,

1615
01:30:28,260 --> 01:30:31,380
they collapse with devastating force.

1616
01:30:31,380 --> 01:30:34,500
Every collapse is like
a mini-explosion,

1617
01:30:34,500 --> 01:30:39,150
capable of piercing and fracturing
even the hardest rock.

1618
01:30:39,150 --> 01:30:41,430
In a flood the size of Noah's,

1619
01:30:41,430 --> 01:30:45,090
with much higher speeds
those of modern rivers,

1620
01:30:45,090 --> 01:30:49,320
cavitation would have been
widespread and relentless.

1621
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:51,780
A flood of global scale suddenly becomes

1622
01:30:51,780 --> 01:30:54,990
the only plausible explanation
for entire mountain ranges

1623
01:30:54,990 --> 01:30:57,180
they have the top of their head completely shaved.

1624
01:30:57,180 --> 01:31:00,240
It was a gigantic sheet
moving water flow

1625
01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:01,950
at an incredible speed

1626
01:31:01,950 --> 01:31:05,580
like the flood waters of
Noah's flood left the earth.

1627
01:31:05,580 --> 01:31:09,600
We all watched in horror
incredible destructive power

1628
01:31:09,600 --> 01:31:13,620
of the tsunamis that hit Indonesia in 2004

1629
01:31:13,620 --> 01:31:16,890
and in Japan in 2011.

1630
01:31:16,890 --> 01:31:21,120
Yet these walls of water were
moving at very low speeds,

1631
01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:24,420
just 20-30 kilometers per hour.

1632
01:31:24,420 --> 01:31:26,760
- But do you remember?
that mystery of the rocks

1633
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:28,803
with those strange circular signs?

1634
01:31:29,910 --> 01:31:32,190
Well, those circular signs are caused

1635
01:31:32,190 --> 01:31:34,803
due to the rocks rubbing against each other.

1636
01:31:38,220 --> 01:31:43,220
In the West, this wall of water
he collected boulders in Idaho

1637
01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:45,690
and transported the
rocks at highway speed

1638
01:31:45,690 --> 01:31:48,540
in Alberta, Canada,
banging stones against each other

1639
01:31:48,540 --> 01:31:52,380
until the water finally slowed down
enough to make rocks fall,

1640
01:31:52,380 --> 01:31:56,463
producing a 3,500 foot mountain
above what is now sea level.

1641
01:31:57,330 --> 01:32:00,963
These rocks are really heavy.

1642
01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:04,950
The calculations are
Simple enough.

1643
01:32:04,950 --> 01:32:06,990
In order for the water to collect these rocks,

1644
01:32:06,990 --> 01:32:08,850
it should flow at a minimum

1645
01:32:08,850 --> 01:32:11,700
speeds on interstate highways,

1646
01:32:11,700 --> 01:32:16,700
about 110 kilometers per hour
or at least 70 miles per hour.

1647
01:32:18,630 --> 01:32:22,230
The mystery is solved
with a simple solution,

1648
01:32:22,230 --> 01:32:23,850
a global flood.

The present cannot be
the key to the past,

Causing global floods

and gaps caused by wind present all over the world

1664
01:33:08,370 --> 01:33:12,720
it is also suddenly explained
with a simple hypothesis,

1665
01:33:12,720 --> 01:33:16,830
a historic flood of global significance.

1666
01:33:16,830 --> 01:33:20,070
The reason why water gaps are a
The mystery at the moment is simply

1667
01:33:20,070 --> 01:33:22,410
because of the philosophical assumption

1668
01:33:22,410 --> 01:33:25,590
that there was no worldwide flood,

1669
01:33:25,590 --> 01:33:27,990
and therefore, you are forced into a corner

1670
01:33:27,990 --> 01:33:31,920
of having to explain how
Earth's water defies gravity

1671
01:33:31,920 --> 01:33:33,963
to start digging a canyon.

1672
01:33:34,980 --> 01:33:38,250
If the water starts
above the mountain tops,

1673
01:33:38,250 --> 01:33:40,620
then the water gaps make complete sense

1674
01:33:40,620 --> 01:33:44,490
since there was barely any water
simply by moving and therefore,

1675
01:33:44,490 --> 01:33:48,840
cross any mountain
that stood in his path.

1676
01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:52,530
There aren't any nowadays
processes that reduce water shortages

01:33:52,530 --> 01:33:55,110
and gaps of wind in the mountains.

up to 6,000 kilometers
separated from each other

and three Canadian provinces,

1700
01:35:02,520 --> 01:35:07,467
we don't have any current
processes that produce enormous,

1701
01:35:07,467 --> 01:35:11,193
provincial-sized layers
of sediments like these.

1702
01:35:12,060 --> 01:35:15,360
And if we did, we would
call it a catastrophe,

1703
01:35:15,360 --> 01:35:19,410
and not a slow and
gradual geological process.

1704

The present cannot be the key to the past.

the historical record of a global flood.

1716
01:36:05,550 --> 01:36:06,543
and overwhelming.

1717
01:36:07,950 --> 01:36:11,190
So what would that do to people?
to devise so cunningly

1718
01:36:11,190 --> 01:36:14,283
a plan to get rid of the
world of the Great Flood?

1719
01:36:15,480 --> 01:36:18,300
It could be because the
proof of God's judgment

1720
01:36:18,300 --> 01:36:22,503
it was literally all around
them, all over the world?

1721
01:36:23,460 --> 01:36:27,030
It could be the allusions between
the judgment of the flood

1722
01:36:27,030 --> 01:36:29,790
and the great judgment to come,

1723
01:36:29,790 --> 01:36:32,550
as well as allusions
between Noah's ark

1724
01:36:32,550 --> 01:36:35,703
and Jesus Christ, were they too offensive?

1725
01:36:36,690 --> 01:36:38,730
It could be that unconsciously,

1726
01:36:38,730 --> 01:36:41,490
they were trying to
escape future judgment

1727
01:36:41,490 --> 01:36:43,440
that Christ had warned about?

1728
01:36:43,440 --> 01:36:47,073
A judgment that even compared
to Noah's flood?

1729
01:36:48,270 --> 01:36:50,940
Were they perhaps trying to evade the ultimatum?

1730
01:36:50,940 --> 01:36:52,620
that Christ gave,

1731
01:36:52,620 --> 01:36:56,940
behaving a lot like the
people did it before the flood.

1732
01:36:56,940 --> 01:36:59,910
Teasing and desperately trying to ignore

1733
01:36:59,910 --> 01:37:02,820
the sentence pending, perhaps in hope

1734
01:37:02,820 --> 01:37:06,783
it will simply go away or
it won't happen in their lifetime.

1735
01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:12,000
The problem with this is
that the door has finally closed

1736
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:14,313
on those who did not board the ark.

1737
01:37:15,180 --> 01:37:18,093
Which side of that door would you take?

1738
01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:21,780
Which side of that door will you be on?

1739
01:37:21,780 --> 01:37:23,947
to the next great judgment?
