What Does the Lake Missoula Flood Teach Us?
Michael Oard
Seattle Creation Conference, September 2015
Cedar Park
Church, Bothell WA.
Description:
This talk describes the abundant evidence for the existence of glacial Lake Missoula at the peak of the Ice Age and its bursting forth creating the Channeled Scablands of eastern Washington in a matter of days. It focuses on the question of why practically every mainstream earth scientist rejected the Lake Missoula flood for 40 years, despite an overwhelming amount of evidence. The reason shows their bias against big events and shows why they will never see evidence for the Genesis Flood that stares them in the face. Now that mainstream scientists have accepted the Lake Missoula flood, they have gone on to postulate anywhere from 40 to 100 at the peak of the last ice age, not to speak of their other 30 supposed ice ages in the past 2.5 million years. Obvious evidence is presented that there really was only one large Lake Missoula flood. The features left behind from the Lake Missoula flood are then used to show that similar features all over the Earth were caused by a global Flood.
