paleomagnetism shows continental drift

I got a hard time with the Global flood theory If it was to happen all the water would have mixed there would be no fresh water . To me It sounds like there was civilization on Pangea and the stories come from it breaking apart .
Sedimentary rocks: Magnetite in sedimentary rocks often shows more scatter in its direction compared to igneous rocks. This is because sediments can be transported and deposited from various locations, potentially mixing particles with different magnetic orientations.
-Volcanic rocks: Rapid cooling of volcanic rocks can sometimes trap magnetite in a non-equilibrium state, resulting in a magnetization that doesn't accurately reflect the Earth's field at the time of eruption.
-Metamorphic rocks: The intense heat and pressure associated with metamorphism can partially or completely destroy the original magnetization of magnetite, making it difficult to reconstruct the ancient magnetic field from these rocks.

I think you can make up something to try to cover the actual facts and you fully believe it.
The inconsistances here are in your understanding of the facts and attempts at trying to pass christian websites off as scientific proof.
Paleomagnatism is fact
I thought all these rock layers didn't exist and were only caused by flooding?

I had the same question, but I found some science videos that shows how fresh and salty water will layer when the two are mixed:
I suppose the oceans are homogenous now because they've been undisturbed for a while. Also consider river deltas where it is a transition zone between salty and fresh conditions. I think the organisms can perceive where to go to avoid too salty or too fresh of conditions
This video also shows how boundaries can form due to salt water having higher density. The salt-less, low density rain during the flood likely would have created a freshwater-like environment towards the top of the flood water.

It really doesn't work that way I work in a industry that deals with water there are some freak things out there you mentioned even a place underwater thats separated almost like a forest . But a sudden clamistic down fall of freshwater would have only produced a brackish type of water if the ocean's overflowed most water would be around 4.2 salainity Half or less saltwater they would mix . look at the dead sea it's high salinity is because of lack of rainfall and evaporation . a global flood would have made each water body the same salinity due to the fact there's more salt then fresh .
The water needed to reach everest

The water needed to reach everest
Is a lot.
If all the water on earth melted.
+885 feet (looked up: added Radius)
Add all the water in atmosphere
+ 31 feet (looked up: added Radius)
** Now the myth should die right here, 28,116 feet short, but let's have fun...
If you somehow extracted all the water in the mantle out of the olivine, wadsleyite, and ringwoodite (same amount as oceans) and transported it to surface without losing any volume in the mantle.
Total water in oceans = 320.3 million cu miles
Volume of earth = 260,744,946,000 cu miles
Diameter = 41,851,049 feet
If you add another ocean volume (from mantle) to the oceans:
New volume = 261,065,246,000 feet
New Diameter = 41,868,178.7 feet
Added diameter = 17,129
Radius = 8,564 ft
Thus:
All water in all forms in liquid form on surface:
+ 8,564 + 885 + 31 = 9,570
Total available water on Earth adds 9,570 ft to sea level.
Need more water. Have to borrow some.
I'm in northeast Georgia but I've done work in several neighboring states and its always the same. No matter where you drill into this planet you hit water about 60 to 70 feet deep......in most cases its a nearly inexhaustible amount of water.
It is a fact that paleomagnetism is inconsistent. Unless you can find a paper that says otherwise? I think you're over-estimating your science lords fallibility.

And I think your belief in a imaginary friend who's able to magicially create water 5.5 miles above sea level, world wide so able to cover Everest is crazy talk.
By the way which imaginary friend did it? was it the summarian Gods?
Tectonic plates are proveable as is Paleomagnatism
Otherwise just admit you're blindly believing what other people say
No the water was brought from beneath the earth where it is known to exist. Are you reading my responses?
That means that there had to be 813,875,076 miles³ of rain for the biblical flood. To put that in perspective, the oceans have about 321,000,000 miles³ of water. All the water on earth only adds up to about 332,500,000 miles³.

How do you have got the gall to post that? post 1 single piece of proof of God and that this magical flood you claimed happened from a actual scientist and not someone pretending to be from a bible bashers website??

Where did you say all the water came from??
