| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| True or False: Evolutionists account for the natural origin of life from non-living materials because life exists and according to them, there can't be any other way for life to begin. | True |
| In the ______ hypothesis, ________ was the main overall factor that ________ matter into a solar system. According to the _________, it was _______ _________. | nebular, gravity, organized, Bible, God's Word |
| What scientific evidence that shows that some wooly mammoths died suddenly? | Some of the carcuses still had vegetation in their stomachs and between their teeth, and some were buried standing up. |
| Describe a proper and improper response when either secular or christian scientists observe something that does not fit their model of the solar system. | Scientists can either change their model or they can ignore the problem. |
| What is the major problem with the theory of a slowly-cooling earth producing thick ice sheets during an ice age? | A slowly-cooling earth has less and less moisture in the atmosphere available for producing snow. |
| Explain why a fossil of a tall tree trunk that extends through multiple rock strata is a problem for the standard old earth view of geology. | Secular geology assumes very slow sedimentation rate. The tree trunk will decay away long before the thousands of years needed to cover it. |
| How do biblical creationists determine the age of the earth at the time of the Genesis flood? | Biblical creationists use the geneology found in Genesis and the age of Noah given in Genesis 7 to calculate the age of the earth. |
| True or False: The Genesis flood lasted 40 days and 40 nights. | False; It lasted for 314 days because it took that long for the water to recede. |
| State 3 ways in which the Biblical flood affected the world and people. | 1. The flood completely reformed the earth. 2. All recorded history is destroyed in the flood. 3. The human life greatly decreased. |
| What are 2 ways that geologists can date a rock stratum? | 1. Radiometric dating 2. Relative dating |
| True or False: Scientific evidence today indicates that continents are not fixed in position on a surface of the earth, but slowly move. | True |
| What do geologists believe is the driving force for sea floor spreading? | Geologists that not slowly rising plumes of mantle rock strike the lithosphere and spread out friction, dragging the ocean crust apart at rift zones. |
| What technology used during WW2 revealed unsuspected ocean basin structures that reinforce the idea of drifting continents? | The use of sonar during WW2 revealed new ocean basin structures. |
| What is an important geologic feature found in ocean basins associated with subduction of oceanic plates under continental plates? | Deep ocean trenches are present where ocean plates appear to have subducted under continental plates. |
| BOth secular and young earth geologists agree on the essential aspects of the plate tectonics theory except in what 2 key points? | When tectonic plates move and how long it took to happen. |
| According to secular geologists, what kind of land mass formed again and again as continental plates came together and separated throughout earth's history? | Super continents |
| How long from start to finish were flood waters on the earth? | Flood waters were on the earth for 314 days |
| True or False: The nebular hypothesis correctly predicts the presence of heavy elements like iron, lead and uranium in the earth's crust. | False - God's Word is what predicts this |
| True or False: Geologists assume that the earth's magnetic field has always pointed in the same direction throughout earth's history. | False |
| True or False: THe Bible narrative of the ice age is found in Genesis 11-13 | False - There was no evidence of the ice age in the Bible |
