I've always considered myself scientifically- minded. As I have moved from atheism, to agnosticism, to knowing Jesus is Lord and God raised him from the dead, I am realizing that I was just brainwashed. Thank you God for Is Genesis History?, Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter among others for answering my objections, reconciling scientific "contradictions" to God's Word, and opening my eyes and my heart.

22:13 best lecturer ever 😂 I love that guy. He’s so animated and enthusiastic about this stuff.

I love Dr. Kurt’s passion for the subject. Why does he remind me of my oldest brother that passed away in March?

Brilliant. I love your information and your enthusiastic delivery.

I like this guy because he has researched in the very same areas where my “biblical mind” asks questions and wants to know. There is so much light yet to be revealed on this! Thank you Dr. Wise! - Matt Mahan

Absolutely fascinating. Worth watching to the end.

I love to listen to Dr. Kurt Wise. I'd like to sit down with him and pick his brain with so many questions. Awesome lecture.

I love his bubbly enthusiasm about this subject.....enjoyed this!.....

I love this lecture and I love the lecturer and I especially like when he talks about the floating forest in other videos just amazing stuff what God has done and will do!

I stand amazed at the Word of God and what our Lord has done. Thank you so much for your science Dr Wise.

I think I would also have required a glass of wine in that post- flood world This is fascinating - I think if I had had a lecturer like Kurt I would have stuck with Geology I have always wondered if Continental Drift could have happened during the flood and I greatly appreciate the model he and others present. This is such a great series Thanks guys

Dr. Kurt Wise makes a difficult concept fun to learn and easier to understand. So thankful for people like him helping make scientific sense out of scripture as it relates to earths history.

Totally awesome. By the grace of GOD help me understand his creation. Thank you and God bless Dr Kurt and Dr Steve.

Thanks for your hard work to bring this to us!

This really is amazing stuff he covers in this lecture. Tectonic!

I like his speech,s and how he explains things.

I appreciate your enthusiasm Professor! It show great passion to share what you've encountered and researched. Praise the Glory of Jehovah God!

I delight in Kurt wise’s Lectures, I can’t help but to be amazed at how informative and he is so animated and simply loves the subject.

Fantastic Presentation!!!!!

Obviously loves his work! Wonderful

I really appreciate how this gentleman is able to open such complex concepts in such a way that we can all grasp these amazing ideas! God bless you to influence more people for the glory of God!

My interest is more on the pre-flood condition of the earth. What was the earth like before the flood? Was there really no rain yet? How was the sky look like? What about the mountains before before the flood? What happened to the original 3 rivers mentioned in Genesis 1-3 after the flood? Were they the same rivers after the flood? Did the rainbow in the sky only appear after the flood? And so on.

it all makes perfect sense!

When someone screams, waves their arms and yells about Lava Domes, I back away and let them have the space they need.

Thank you again for your ministry.👍

This guy is so amazingly entertaining. Fascinating speaker!!

Kurt, this is the third lecture of yours that I’ve seen this week. I really appreciate your skill in teaching this material. I very much enjoy watching and learning. More than once, I’ve had questions I wanted to ask only to have you answer the question later in the lecture.

Detective work with Biblical clues!

'Effusive'. Awesome Kurt!

I wish I could back and get a second PhD, I would have studied this.

Wow! One of my favorite Flood presentations, to date. Thank you, Dr. Wise!

This is worth watching just for Dr. Wise’s re-enactment of Noah descending Mt. Ararat (22:10). Great teacher’s love their subject and they love people, and he left this somewhat jaded 68 year-old with a re-awakened appreciation of the power of God and the dynamism and immediacy of life. Please share this video.

Wow, you explain this well. Job well done, sir.

Great speaker !

No doubt I find The World during Pre-flood to be one of the single most interesting,.. but even4 more the Post- Flood world/our Earth Age has to be one of thè 8th Wonders of the World, as this Professor describes how the world must have looked like when the Arc and Noah rested, he gives I feel an accurate account, I could listen to him for hours. Were blessed to have his and others like him that went to School and Studied fir Pain Staking years, to pass on this knowledge. Great Job.

this guy is dorky n a cool way, great theory n good job explaining it

Very Wise!

So what mountain range did the Kingston Range break off from?

Kurt I love listening to your lectures I am fascinated all the time. I.I'm thinking that back in my school days if I had a teacher that had your Passion tor truth .I might have actually paid attention and gotten good grades. That being said, all they tried to do was regurgitate some agenda for the main stream ideology of the academic. So most likely they whould have to burry you as to protect the naritive. With that thank you.

If you've covered the make-up of the crust before the flood, can you direct me to the video? The Bible says that Tubal Cane was skilled in metal. Was there ore or metal close to the top of the crust?

When the salt done under bayou corn collapsed we saw living trees drop straight down to the bottom and disappear. It was an amazing sight

Does he have a lecture on Yellowstone ?

What about the pre-flood period? What did the antediluvian age look like?

These plate move apart not together it was the depths that came up Genesis 7:11

HE HAD TO GROW ON ME, BUT THE MOST ATTRACTIVE TRAIT, IS HIS INTELLIGENCE, REGARDING JEHOVAH AND THE EARTH, HOW ITS IN HARMONY,

Can anyone tell me where all 2.5 billion cubic kilometres of extra water from he Noah flood went?

@9:40 Dr Wise ,...is *this* why Denver is a mile high ?

If people could only believe in Gods word it might put their climate change theory to rest. I believe the earth is young and what we are seeing today is earth still healing from the flood. Thank you for all your great work!

Where did the flood water come from and then where did it go?

Does this have anything to do with Jane Russell?

Are the megalithic civilizations pre or post flood? If preflood, then acorrding to this lecture, rhey would all be much closer to each other on Pangia (before the moving of the continents). Are there any scholars that have looked at that data. How were these sites effected by the flood and post flood periods? Are there megalithic sites that were buried, or broken up?

What happened to all the bones of all the people who were drowned in the world wide flood?

I see a world of after shocks, Hurricanes and wild temperature swings as the Earth seeks equilibrium. A large continent in one hemisphere would affect orbit and tilt...I think both would change as the planet's weight Is redistributed.

Excellent presentation!! Eye opening! Keep it up!

Were there earthquakes and volcanoes before the Flood?

Cleveland, Tennessee, is west of the Rockies? Clearly he is not a trained geographer.

Dr. Kurt, What Is The Common Theory Of Causation For "The Flood"?

who is Steve? where is that presentation?

Wouldn't seismic energy accelerate the trend to static?

I always believed that we had one land mass before the flood the separation of the land was part of the world disruption that was the floods so often we forget that the earth was broken up with the waters under the earth coming up

k2 peak is 247meter below Everest -it is never getting higher than Everest with tenth off feet off fluctuation dr kurt wise is a very unwise

This man is amazing

The ice age was more likely caused by the collapse of the canopy if it was composed of very-high-density amorphous ice, too dense to float, falling in at the magnetic poles. Post flood there would not have been time for the massive amounts of fauna to build up that died suddenly in the ice age. Also, the fauna, such as mammoths, were frozen instantly. It was far too cold for snow to have been the cause of mammoths freezing before food could be digested in their stomachs. Being too dense to float, the very-high-density amorphous ice would remain on the ground, under water, during the flood, even causing the development of permafrost, before the flood receded. It is so cold that it would have easily frozen all of the fauna where it stood. This isn't some crazy notion. We actually observe very-high-density amorphous ice on Ganymede falling from space and being funneled toward the magnetic poles of the moon.

Why is glacier ice so blue?

How is the rapid increase in the frequency and amplitude of earthquakes that we are experiencing now explained by this theory?

Hi Kurt, why don't you mention Hydroplate Theory? That's what you're generally describing, but it quantifies the effects much better.

The continental break up would alter climate and ocean currents. It would be a new world.

I thought science says tectonic plates are continuously moving to explain the movement of mountains.

When the fountains of the deep broke up, you'd better believe there were plate tectonics. And they moved quickly!

Really apologetics, thank you so much, it helps to enlightening people, starting with me🙏

‘Kay-row IL. Just sayin’. Love the presentation!

Very engaging.

Can anyone interpret Genesis 1:2 's first clause ,"And the earth was without form, and void;"?

The waters of the flood filled in the sinking ocean basin. The sea floor material is more dense and heavier than the continental material. Hydraulic force in the fluid mantle pushed up the continents. That is what caused the flood basalts and huge uplifts, mountain ranges. Of course as the ocean basin was sinking the massive sheets of flood water ran off the continents causing massive erosion as the water level neared the surface.

Kurt, I have never heard that K2 and Everest trade the title of world's tallest mountain and change heights by 10;s of feet per year. Is this found somewhere in official scientific literature? Also, it sounds like you believe in catastrophic climate change based on your description of how you think arctic and antarctic ice will melt. Is this true?

Which flood are you referring to?

If the ice came after the flood, how did mastodons get quick frozen in permafrost?

Probably a silly question - but how did the flood recede and how long did it take to do so, and did some of the waters evaporate or find its way to oceans? The Bible speaks of the Ark landing on a mountain in Turkey. I wondered whether those poor animals managed to survive on a mountain top and for how long? Fascinating stuff! Actually, what he says immediately makes logical sense, and it’s a relief to not hear the usual smokescreen of billions of years being trotted out. Even as a Christian I settled on the idea that the earth was billions of years old because that was what I was taught in school. The six days of creation sounded implausible, but then I came to the conclusion that God can do anything He wishes, so who am I to argue with Him? He created time and space, so He is the Boss. Hugh Ross, the astrophysicist, is a Christian, but He believes the earth was around for billions of years, but he does explain the fine tuning of our moon in relation to our planet and its life, which only God our Creator could do.

I see many comments for and against this theory...Both arguments have merit..I guess if this is all for true, we'll know when we pass over. All knowledge is supposed to be given to us then.

Having watched half of this, I wonder if he is going to talk about the ice flood of Genesis 1:2

Love his passion.

Question? How is oxygen levels affected after flood until earth is reforested?

Again with the, “million and millions of years”. Sheeeze!

I endorse most of this, but some I disagree with such as animals changing species super rapidly after the flood.

Rebound eh? Maybe, but I think the lunar tidal forces also pull at the continents and that could be lifting them slightly when the moon passes over them. Then drop down when goes around to the other side of earth. Perhaps you should try match that activity to lunar positioning. I'm not trying to argue, but scienc looks at facts. I want more facts.

It must be remembered that the mud form these mud flows is not something the ladies in the beauty shop would want to put their customers faces. It is truly a mixed bag of material whose main property is enough turbulence to keep these solids in a plastic suspension. One of the modern metal cutting techniques is the water jet table for cutting plate stock. This is done at very high pressure through a very hard abrasion resistant nozzle. However, the cutting medium is not water despite the name. The cutting medium is an abrasive slurry that is suspended in water. In conventional geology, glaciers scour bedrock as they slowly move down slope. This is like sand paper on a geologic scale. However, a mud flow can produce a similar result except there is no moraine where the glacier finally melts and drops the suspended material. Using just those two examples it is easy to see how academics can misinterpret conditions in the field. Yes, superman's x-ray vision would have helped here, but one also has to understand the politics of science and how mistakes take on a life of their own and are exceptionally hard to kill. Academics who championed half baked ideas will fight tooth and nail to defend their reputations. An embarrassment reflects not only on the academic but also the institution that employs him/her and grant money that goes elsewhere.

I could have listened to him longer, very well done.

Another question, if all animals came from the ark, how did they get spaced across the whole world. Did they get moved at the same time humans did from Babel. Seems unlikely snakes crossed a frozen bridge to North America. Logs seem unlikely for a snake or some other animals. That is thousands of miles. How would they survive that trip. Not much food on a log

How old is the Earth in your view

Dr. Wise, I have learned a great deal about geology and paleontology from your lectures, and I greatly appreciate them. However, I do have one minor geographical/archaeology disagreement. At 1:02:44 you mentioned Lot and the plain of the Jordan, and, if I understand correctly, how that is now the Dead Sea. That does seem to be the consensus among many archaeologists, but I have been studying this for many years, and I am reasonably certain that area is still located in the plain of the Jordan, and not within the Dead Sea. Archaeologists, like other scientists and historians, tend to be "victimized" from time-to-time by groupthink, which I believe to be the case here. Other examples of archaeological groupthink include Champollion's hasty claim that Shoshenq was the bibilical Shishak, and Kathleen Kenyon's dogmatic claim that what was believed to be Jericho before her time, was NOT Jericho, a claim that was possibly based on faulty dates derived from Champollion's earlier claim. In any case, a 2017 Journal of Creation article by Anne Habermehl summarized much of what I have learned and come to believe over the years. The summary of Part I reads, _"It is most likely that the ruins of the cities of the plain are located along a narrow strip of wasteland on the west side of the Jordan River, just north of the Dead Sea. This conclusion is arrived at mainly from the various mentions of the cities from Scripture. It is shown that other claimed locations around the Dead Sea cannot be Sodom." [Anne Habermehl, "Sodom Part I." Journal of Creation, 31(2); August, 2017, p.59]_ Earlier in the article, she stated: _"We quote [Steven] Collins on this window of visibility: 'I am intimately familiar with what can and cannot be seen from practically every vantage point between Ai and the edge of the Jordan Valley to the east. The southern Jordan Valley north of the Dead Sea and the foothills on the eastern edge of the Jordan Valley are easily visible from that area. On a clear day, you can even see a portion of the northern end of the Dead Sea itself. But under no circumstances or by any stretch of the imagination can you see with the naked eye beyond that point to the middle (Lisan) regions or the southern end of the Dead Sea. The vantage point of the area of Bethel and Ai is a bit of evidence that should not be passed over lightly.'" [Ibid. p.53]_ While Anne doesn't agree with the location Collins chose for Sodom, she does agree with his on-site observation of the what Lot might have seen, as do I. In Part II, Anne adds: _"This high level of the Dead Sea at the time of the cities' destruction has obvious implications for claims by some that the remains of the cities were under the southern end of the Dead Sea (as discussed in part 1). The cities cannot have ever been under water because at the time of the cities' destruction, the Dead Sea was at its highest level in historical times. This high level is also implicated in the next section on the Vale of Siddim." [Ibid. "Sodom Part II." p.72]_ For the record, Josephus also claimed the land of Sodom "borders upon" the Dead Sea, not in it, and adds that the traces [or shadows] of the five cities were still visible in his day: _"The nature of the lake Asphaltitis is also worth describing. It is, as I have said already, bitter and unfruitful. It is so light [or thick] that it bears up the heaviest things that are thrown into it; nor is it easy for any one to make things sink therein to the bottom, if he had a mind so to do . . . The country of Sodom borders upon it. It was of old a most happy land, both for the fruits it bore and the riches of its cities, although it be now all burnt up. It is related how, for the impiety of its inhabitants, it was burnt by lightning; in consequence of which there are still the remainders of that Divine fire, and the traces [or shadows] of the five cities are still to be seen, as well as the ashes growing in their fruits; which fruits have a color as if they were fit to be eaten, but if you pluck them with your hands, they dissolve into smoke and ashes. And thus what is related of this land of Sodom hath these marks of credibility which our very sight affords us." [Flavius Josephus, "The Complete Works: Wars of the Jews." Christian Classics Ethereal Library, 1934, Book IV.8.4, pp.1379-80]_ Links to Anne's articles: creation.com/images/pdfs/tj/j31_2/j31_2_53-60.pdf creation.com/images/pdfs/tj/j31_2/j31_2_70-77.pdf BTW, Archaeologist Steven Collins makes a very good case for his interpretations. Thanks, again. Dan

I’m confused by the info about Arphaxad living 400 years. I though that according to Scripture, after the flood, a man’s lifespan was only 120 years.

its not straight because electric current. and it can cut through bedrock in seconds. did you notice any electic phenomenon during the Mt St Helen's eruption ?

When the plate bobs up post flood surely this would displace water and cause another flood

Where are you getting the energy needed to move continents at meters per second?

May I start with the word 'but' , but what elephant would straddle a couple of logs , head out to sea for how many months without food or water , meet up with more elephants and live happily ever after?!?! The whole video was very interesting , informative and believable but the last couple of minutes was a bit odd.😕

That camerawork though...

The appropriately named Mt. Ever Rest.

One question about time are we talking biblical time or modern time 1yr = 1k yrs? The flood was GOD creation wouldn't we use his time span

You just picked "Arphaxadian" because it was the longest and hardest to pronounce of all the names! ;)

i guess he never considered how gensis says there was a water expanse above the earth creating a worldwide tropical climate where palms trees were growing in the north pole area. so the earth is actually alot cooler now then before. genesis 1:6-7 expanse is mid heaven where the birds fly.
