Good point and it is remiss to not point out that Geological evidence is in a constant state of flux....which brings us round to the "timeline issue" again......you see it is as difficult to parse the geological epochs or stages of earths evolution into an accurate chronological order.....
HUH???
No, seriously... on what basis do you make this claim? Earth's history is very clearly laid out in the rocks... you can walk past any road cut or drive through mountains and see it written there for you. Or look at drill cores. It really couldn't be any plainer.
Karst formations (Karts tinkholes) are found all over the world in areas where there's limestone (ancient sea beds)... in Florida, they swallow up cars and houses.

How long does it take nature to make rock?How long does it take to make OIL?...Coal?........and in response to your answer I will say it takes less than decades to make rock under the right conditions and that Oil is thousands of years old not milllions as is coal.
We will never agree on the issue because you are basing your reality on academia and you are grounded by what in many cases are lies and misdirects you learned in school.....I can link you to proof of this,but we will still be having to validate those sources.....which begins the cycle of discussion all over again.
I went to the same era schools as many here right....so its not complicated.....and I argued with teachers in grade school and throughout my education over obvious lies and misdirects built into the curriculum they were giving us all......why would I argue decades later with people who hold degrees that werent even smart enough to realise what was being done to them in grade school??....anyone with a truly inquiring intelligent mind would have long ago condemned academia as worthless until proven otherwise......soooooo.....ya they lies about how old stuff is all along....but we know now here on the olde internet.

I'm sorry, but say what again? You seriously think that geologists are lying over areas like plate tectonics, vulcanology and basic chemistry? You said that you argued with your teachers in school - about what exactly? Did you go in with your own preconceived ideas about the age of the Earth and then get annoyed when you learnt that basic science said that your ideas were ridiculous?
There is a vast amount of science that says that the Earth is billions of years old. I value science over religion, somewhat massively in fact.

There is never really much mention of the deluge from the Quran/ Islamic's perspective. Muslims also believe in a great deluge, that was more region specific rather than engulfing most of the inhabited worlds.
It seems that islam is not mentioning it because it was invented well after the flood/tsunami happened. It's only ~1500 years old; and the floods are thought to have happened quite some time before that [some even say 10 000 years or more].
So maybe there were two or more occasions where floods happened. One was all engulfing and early in history, the other later and not quite so bad.

Proven to who's standard?
I suspect that it's proven to the standard of the scientific community at large.
Have you considered the possibility that, for all this time, you're the one who was wrong, and have been wrong all the way back to grade school?
I would be interested to know what scientific studies you have performed, what evidence you have gathered, that support your claim that the consensus of a large body of subject-matter experts are wrong.

There has been a small purging of pedophile priests.

True and some interesting new age re-hashing of old and some new ideas but a lot of noise and smoke and no real movement, certainly no functional messiahs or miracle producing prophets.

Well, 17 years ago I could get on a plane without being treated like a criminal and risking anal probes from barely educated security guards who hate the world and have no problem with showing it.
I could buy a whole host of useful products over the counter, most of which are no longer available.
I could take my kids to the museum without needing to go through a metal detector and bag search.
Religion has definitely had an impact on the world.

And hence we observe that such evidence certainly doesn't exist.
