Development of glaciers may well have been a factor in the removal of the flood waters from the earth, but the biblical text offers no specific information about any mechanism for this process. Creation science is free to offer theories about this, but there is no explicit biblical endorsement for any of them. The Flood may not be the whole explanation for fossilization, but it may be the explanation for a significant part of it. In any case, only a tiny percentage of the living creatures that perished in the flood would have been fossilized, so the absence of evidence of human casualties of the Flood is not particularly significant. Again, we do not endorse any specific theory or explanation of fossilization as the biblical explanation.
Radiocarbon dating depends on the proportion of radioactive carbon in the atmosphere.
The acknowledged problems with radiocarbon dating are very likely due to variations in the percentage of radioactive carbon in this pool rather than to any factors affecting the samples after they had been deposited. Creation science offers many interesting possibilities for explaining the phenomena of geology, but none of them answer all of the remaining questions. Request written permission to copy.
