not true,,,the flood would have caused a multi layer scenario where the lowest forms like fish would be buried the lowest with amphibians being above them due to mobility followed by reptiles that couldnt move so fast and followed by mammals because they most likely could have avoided the rising water for a time until they ran out of land
again get a bottle and some sand and soil add water and observe
No. In a flood the heaviest things settle first.
who said settled???
I said buried,,and the first to get buried would have been the lowest and deadest,,,the bigger ones could have avoided the flood waters for a time by moving to higher ground,,which also explains the fossil grave yards
Dead animals typically float. But heavier items settle first. Meaning the silt would cover them first.
You have no evidence to suggest it was one flood instead of numerous localized floods.
a fossil requires it be buried , so what floats on top is irrelevant
and the heavier ones dont get buried if they go to higher ground to avoid getting buried early on, where as the smaller ones cant run as fast and get caught up in the first deluge of flooding,,,the fish even sooner,,might explain why they are on the bottom
and you have no proof it was several floods, and based on the link for coal posted earlier the majority of land was flat swampy areas and that would make it tough for a localized flood
remember it took months for it to happen
The fish would be less effected by flooding. Small reptiles and amphibians would be more likely to ride out the flood on debris. Larger animals might move faster, if there was someplace to move to. The flooding would not be even, but would follow the contours of the ground.
And, per the link posted before, higher ground might not have existed.
not if they got buried, which is better than the evo argument where they say the fish somehow got out of the water and got buried over millions of yrs
it would follow the contour for a short time until the water rose above the highest point
