Where did we come from?
00:00:11.21\00:00:14.34
The Bible says, "In
the beginning God created."
00:00:14.38\00:00:17.71
Evolution teaches the opposite.
00:00:20.88\00:00:22.95
No one created, it
all happened by itself.
00:00:22.98\00:00:26.42
Which one is the truth?
00:00:26.45\00:00:30.49
This is Headquarters,
00:00:30.53\00:00:34.40
Doc M,
00:00:34.43\00:00:38.90
Jacqui, and Rich,
00:00:38.93\00:00:45.07
their job, investigate
and discover the truth.
00:00:45.11\00:00:48.54
This is The Creation Case.
00:00:52.61\00:00:54.82
Good morning, Jacqui.
00:01:16.47\00:01:17.81
Good morning,
Doc M. How are you?
00:01:17.84\00:01:19.64
I am absolutely fantastic,
00:01:19.67\00:01:23.28
but I don't think
the rest of world is.
00:01:23.31\00:01:25.08
What do you mean?
You won't believe it.
00:01:25.11\00:01:27.58
Well, I was
getting up this morning
00:01:27.62\00:01:29.02
and my alarm clock broke.
00:01:29.05\00:01:33.62
I was on my way out the door,
tie my shoe, my shoelace broke.
00:01:33.66\00:01:39.56
I walk outside and
a sprinkler breaks,
00:01:39.59\00:01:44.90
big old gush of water.
00:01:44.93\00:01:46.40
Wow.
00:01:46.43\00:01:50.11
Hopefully nothing
will break on you here.
00:01:50.14\00:01:52.31
What happened to
your favorite chair?
00:01:58.81\00:02:02.95
I think today just
happened to my favorite chair.
00:02:02.98\00:02:09.49
I guess, I won't be
rolling around in the office.
00:02:09.52\00:02:14.90
Oh, well, don't
worry, eventually,
00:02:14.93\00:02:17.77
everything breaks down.
00:02:17.80\00:02:19.40
Well, apparently
today is the day for that.
00:02:19.43\00:02:22.84
Why?
00:02:22.87\00:02:24.21
Well, look at this
letter I just got from...
00:02:24.24\00:02:28.54
Here it is, Rosie
in Jupiter, Florida.
00:02:28.58\00:02:32.58
Why is everything
breaking down in Florida too?
00:02:32.61\00:02:35.62
No, but you are not far enough.
00:02:35.65\00:02:37.49
Listen to this
interesting letter.
00:02:37.52\00:02:39.45
"Dear Headquarters,
00:02:39.49\00:02:40.99
I have a cousin
that lives up in Missouri
00:02:41.02\00:02:42.92
and his town has
some flooding last week
00:02:42.96\00:02:45.13
with those storms
that went through again.
00:02:45.16\00:02:47.36
Their barn was destroyed
with the river overflowing.
00:02:47.40\00:02:50.27
His school was in
three feet of water.
00:02:50.30\00:02:53.07
His town is a mess now,
00:02:53.10\00:02:54.47
they're trying to
fix all the damage.
00:02:54.50\00:02:56.81
While our town
isn't under water,
00:02:56.84\00:02:58.61
but it sure feels like a mess."
00:02:58.64\00:03:01.81
She continues.
00:03:01.84\00:03:03.18
"So the next day in school,
00:03:03.21\00:03:04.58
we get in this big
discussion in science class,
00:03:04.61\00:03:07.18
because one of
my classmates asked
00:03:07.22\00:03:08.65
if in a million
years all the flooding
00:03:08.68\00:03:10.22
would destroy Missouri
00:03:10.25\00:03:11.79
and make it into
the next Grand Canyon."
00:03:11.82\00:03:14.62
Wow!
00:03:14.66\00:03:15.99
Interesting, crazy,
there, there's more.
00:03:16.02\00:03:19.06
"So then it turns out,
a big part of our class
00:03:19.09\00:03:21.16
believes that God
created the earth,
00:03:21.20\00:03:22.86
then a flood eroded
the surface of our planet.
00:03:22.90\00:03:25.43
Another smaller group
has no idea what they believe
00:03:25.47\00:03:28.64
and the rest of the
class and our teacher believe
00:03:28.67\00:03:30.44
the surface of
the world is a mess
00:03:30.47\00:03:32.87
because of millions
of years of erosion."
00:03:32.91\00:03:36.58
So my question...
00:03:36.61\00:03:38.08
It's a good question.
00:03:38.11\00:03:39.45
Is there any evidence in nature
that shows us how our world
00:03:39.48\00:03:42.58
really got eroded?
00:03:42.62\00:03:44.52
Thank you, Rosie.
00:03:44.55\00:03:47.66
Suddenly a broken chair
doesn't seem so important.
00:03:47.69\00:03:52.96
I know, it's so cool
that all those kids stood up
00:03:52.99\00:03:56.30
for creation.
00:03:56.33\00:03:57.83
That's right.
00:03:57.87\00:03:59.20
We need to get this
message out to Rich, ASAP.
00:03:59.23\00:04:03.64
You got it, Doc.
00:04:03.67\00:04:05.01
Good. Where is Rich anyway?
00:04:05.04\00:04:07.94
Well, I just got a text
from him a little while ago.
00:04:07.98\00:04:10.51
He said, he was on a cliff.
00:04:10.55\00:04:12.61
On a cliff?
00:04:12.65\00:04:15.98
Really?
00:04:16.02\00:04:17.35
In case, I think.
00:04:17.39\00:04:19.62
Sometimes I don't
know what his text mean.
00:04:19.65\00:04:23.99
Should I be worried?
00:04:24.03\00:04:25.83
No!
00:04:25.86\00:04:29.73
Do you have a creation question
00:04:29.76\00:04:31.43
for Headquarters?
00:04:31.47\00:04:32.80
Send your
questions to Doc, Jacqui,
00:04:32.83\00:04:35.00
and Rich by visiting our website
00:04:35.04\00:04:36.91
at TheCreationCase.com.
00:04:36.94\00:04:39.31
That must be HQ.
00:05:21.88\00:05:23.22
Hi, Rich, I hope
everything is okay.
00:05:26.65\00:05:31.43
Doc M has your
next assignment ready.
00:05:31.46\00:05:34.83
We need you to investigate
00:05:34.86\00:05:36.50
what's happened to
the surface of our planet.
00:05:36.53\00:05:39.17
It's easy to see that our planet
00:05:39.20\00:05:40.87
has been
through a lot of erosion
00:05:40.90\00:05:42.54
because of all
the canyons we see.
00:05:42.57\00:05:45.07
Does the evidence
show that this happened
00:05:45.11\00:05:47.18
because of a global flood?
00:05:47.21\00:05:49.21
How and when did
all of these happen?
00:05:49.24\00:05:51.21
Don't worry, he
was just concerned
00:05:56.28\00:05:58.25
about your on a cliff comment.
00:05:58.29\00:06:02.12
Just worry about
the assignment erosion
00:06:02.16\00:06:05.33
and stay safe.
00:06:05.36\00:06:07.23
We look forward to your report.
00:06:07.26\00:06:09.50
Erosion, got it.
00:06:09.53\00:06:12.07
Let me let HQ know,
I got the assignment.
00:06:12.10\00:06:15.70
Got message,
00:06:15.74\00:06:18.97
erosion.
00:06:19.01\00:06:22.71
Safely off cliff
00:06:22.74\00:06:28.28
soon.
00:06:28.32\00:06:31.25
All right.
00:06:31.29\00:06:32.62
Let me write this in my journal.
00:06:32.65\00:06:33.99
Erosion.
00:06:40.20\00:06:42.90
Cool, erosion. You know what?
00:06:42.93\00:06:44.93
We are actually at the
perfect starting point.
00:06:44.97\00:06:47.54
We're in the Badlands
National Park in South Dakota.
00:06:47.57\00:06:50.94
To really appreciate how
water carved up this place.
00:06:50.97\00:06:54.21
We should take
a look from above.
00:06:54.24\00:06:56.48
I had a really good idea.
00:06:56.51\00:06:57.88
Come on.
00:06:57.91\00:07:00.45
Even the wind is
also a cause of erosion.
00:07:00.48\00:07:03.39
My focus today is
on erosion from water.
00:07:03.42\00:07:06.76
The most
destructive form of erosion
00:07:06.79\00:07:09.46
our planet has ever seen.
00:07:09.49\00:07:11.29
Let's take a helicopter ride.
00:07:14.76\00:07:16.87
We'll get a great
view of what happened here.
00:07:16.90\00:07:20.34
The Badlands are named this way
00:07:20.37\00:07:22.14
because the early explorers said
00:07:22.17\00:07:24.44
they were badlands to cross.
00:07:24.47\00:07:26.11
Lots of marine fossils
are found here which shows us
00:07:29.64\00:07:32.91
this whole area
was once underwater.
00:07:32.95\00:07:38.29
The Bible says the flood waters
covered the earth for months.
00:07:38.32\00:07:42.99
Eventually water
drains down to lower ground.
00:07:43.02\00:07:46.76
When a lot of water is involved,
00:07:46.80\00:07:48.76
it results in a lot of
damage that's what we see here.
00:07:48.80\00:07:53.34
Miles and miles of
this part of the desert
00:07:53.37\00:07:56.77
is cut up by retreating water.
00:07:56.81\00:07:59.74
This was not caused
by some little rain.
00:07:59.77\00:08:02.58
You know, there's
another great place
00:08:16.89\00:08:18.76
that we can go visit to see
00:08:18.79\00:08:20.16
how erosion has reshaped
the surface of the earth.
00:08:20.20\00:08:23.20
We need to go to
Bryce Canyon in Utah.
00:08:23.23\00:08:27.54
There's a lot of amazing
things to see on the way too.
00:08:27.57\00:08:30.37
Come on.
00:08:30.41\00:08:31.74
Help us investigate today.

00:08:41.78\00:08:44.49
If we're gonna
talk about erosion,
00:08:56.73\00:08:58.53
it's important to understand
00:08:58.57\00:09:00.17
that water is the
biggest cause of erosion.
00:09:00.20\00:09:02.77
We're gonna drive right
by Shoshone Falls in Idaho
00:09:07.48\00:09:11.01
we should stop and check it out.
00:09:11.05\00:09:12.38
Shoshone Falls
00:09:21.22\00:09:22.56
is one of the
most amazing waterfalls
00:09:22.59\00:09:24.93
in the United States
00:09:24.96\00:09:27.73
It's over 200 feet high,
00:09:27.76\00:09:30.53
45 feet higher
than Niagara Falls,
00:09:30.57\00:09:33.13
plus it's over 1000 feet wide.
00:09:33.17\00:09:38.11
What an incredible view.
00:09:38.14\00:09:42.01
Waterfalls are
an amazing display
00:09:42.04\00:09:44.85
of the power of water.
00:09:44.88\00:09:46.98
Sometimes there are
floods and tsunamis in the world
00:09:47.02\00:09:50.15
and we're reminded
how powerful water is,
00:09:50.19\00:09:53.69
and how it can
damage anything in its path.
00:09:53.72\00:09:58.46
When water and earth
go up against each other,
00:09:58.49\00:10:00.93
let me tell you
water always wins.
00:10:00.96\00:10:03.77
When we talk about
erosion after the flood,
00:10:03.80\00:10:05.93
we're talking about a
massive destructive power.
00:10:05.97\00:10:08.77
Imagine that on a global scale.
00:10:08.80\00:10:12.07
God knew that the
most effective method
00:10:12.11\00:10:14.51
to destroy life on
the planet was with water.
00:10:14.54\00:10:17.38
Welcome to Bryce Canyon,
00:11:06.23\00:11:07.90
one of the best
places to see the effects
00:11:07.93\00:11:10.37
the flood may
have had on the earth.
00:11:10.40\00:11:14.77
Bryce Canyon is
actually not a canyon.
00:11:14.80\00:11:17.44
It's the edge of a high plateau
that has eroded away by water.
00:11:17.47\00:11:23.71
We're really high up here.
00:11:23.75\00:11:25.71
The rim is between 8,000
and 9,000 feet above sea level.
00:11:25.75\00:11:30.75
According to the Bible,
00:11:36.49\00:11:38.03
the earth was
flooded with water so high
00:11:38.06\00:11:40.40
that it covered
all of the mountains.
00:11:40.43\00:11:45.07
Of course, that means
this part of the United States
00:11:45.10\00:11:47.77
was also flooded.
00:11:47.80\00:11:49.14
So after 150 days
00:11:49.17\00:11:51.41
the waters finally
started to drain down.
00:11:51.44\00:11:53.61
We find a lot of evidence
that this whole part of Utah
00:11:56.88\00:12:00.18
was under water for a while
00:12:00.22\00:12:01.88
because we find a
lot of marine fossils
00:12:01.92\00:12:04.59
buried here.
00:12:04.62\00:12:08.12
Eventually the water level
got lower, lower and lower.
00:12:08.16\00:12:12.13
Places like this
may have been formed
00:12:12.16\00:12:14.16
by receding waters
00:12:14.20\00:12:16.67
because of that the
rock is pretty soft,
00:12:16.70\00:12:19.63
I need to be careful.
00:12:19.67\00:12:21.00
This layer of
rock here is very soft,
00:12:26.27\00:12:28.74
it's called sedimentary rock
00:12:28.78\00:12:30.71
because at one point
this was at the bottom
00:12:30.75\00:12:32.41
of the sea and it was loose sand
00:12:32.45\00:12:34.22
and then it hardened,
00:12:34.25\00:12:36.02
check it out.
00:12:36.05\00:12:37.39
It looks like rock but
it's still pretty soft.
00:12:37.42\00:12:41.52
Because of this soft rock,
00:12:41.56\00:12:43.26
water has cut
some amazing hoodoos
00:12:43.29\00:12:45.86
in this place.
00:12:45.89\00:12:49.43
One of the main differences
between creation and evolution
00:12:49.46\00:12:52.83
is that evolution
doesn't give God credit
00:12:52.87\00:12:55.47
for creating and
owning this planet.
00:12:55.50\00:12:58.67
The other main
difference is time.
00:12:58.71\00:13:01.64
You see evolution
teaches that everything has been
00:13:01.68\00:13:04.78
pretty much the same
for millions of years
00:13:04.81\00:13:06.98
and has been changing slowly.
00:13:07.02\00:13:08.55
Creation on the other hand
00:13:14.56\00:13:16.29
teaches that God
created the world recently
00:13:16.32\00:13:19.09
and that the world
was reshaped by a flood,
00:13:19.13\00:13:22.63
which one is true?
00:13:22.66\00:13:24.00
We are looking
for clues and evidence
00:13:24.03\00:13:26.43
to try to figure that out.
00:13:26.47\00:13:29.10
Clues and evidence
will lead us to the truth.
00:13:29.14\00:13:31.77
Actually let me
show you something,
00:13:36.91\00:13:38.91
it's a picture of
a canyon in Georgia
00:13:38.95\00:13:41.35
It's called Providence Canyon.
00:13:41.38\00:13:44.49
It's a beautiful canyon,
00:13:44.52\00:13:45.95
a 150 feet deeper in some parts.
00:13:45.99\00:13:49.96
Do you think it was
formed millions of years ago?
00:13:49.99\00:13:52.99
It was only
formed 150 years ago.
00:13:53.03\00:13:57.27
First thing to remember,
00:13:57.30\00:13:58.63
it doesn't take
millions of years
00:13:58.67\00:14:00.84
to form a canyon.
00:14:00.87\00:14:02.20
It just takes
the right conditions.
00:14:02.24\00:14:04.67
I think I'm gonna write
that down in my journal.
00:14:04.71\00:14:08.41
It doesn't take
millions of years
00:14:08.44\00:14:10.55
to form canyons,
00:14:10.58\00:14:12.05
just the right conditions.
00:14:12.08\00:14:13.42
If we think about it,
00:14:20.29\00:14:21.62
what kind of evidence
would we expect to see
00:14:21.66\00:14:23.53
if a global flood did happen?
00:14:23.56\00:14:26.76
If the world was
covered by one big giant ocean
00:14:26.80\00:14:29.70
during the flood,
00:14:29.73\00:14:31.07
we would expect to see a
large deposit of sediment
00:14:31.10\00:14:33.17
at the bottom of the
ocean, nice smooth layers.
00:14:33.20\00:14:39.34
We would see
evidence of the flood waters
00:14:39.37\00:14:41.74
draining away
from the higher places.
00:14:41.78\00:14:44.65
We'd see billions of
land, sea, and air creatures
00:14:44.68\00:14:48.65
very rapidly all over the world.
00:14:48.68\00:14:52.05
We'd find
evidence of massive amounts
00:14:52.09\00:14:54.36
of vegetation that got ripped up
00:14:54.39\00:14:56.86
and buried rapidly.
00:14:56.89\00:14:58.79
If a global flood did happen,
00:14:58.83\00:15:01.10
those are the kind of
features we would expect to see.
00:15:01.13\00:15:04.27
So what do we see exactly that.
00:15:04.30\00:15:09.60
We see layers and layers
of sediment neatly deposited.
00:15:09.64\00:15:14.34
Canyons that show
00:15:14.38\00:15:15.74
how water
quickly eroded the land.
00:15:15.78\00:15:19.35
Billions of
creatures buried in the ground,
00:15:19.38\00:15:23.32
huge amounts of
buried vegetation
00:15:23.35\00:15:25.65
that have now
turned into coal and oil.
00:15:25.69\00:15:29.92
All of these things can be seen
00:15:29.96\00:15:31.83
on every continent of the world.
00:15:31.86\00:15:35.30
It seems like the planet
itself provides tons of evidence
00:15:35.33\00:15:38.87
that a global flood did occur.
00:15:38.90\00:15:41.60
A coincidence, I don't think so.
00:15:41.64\00:15:44.04
Every step
leads us farther down.
00:16:04.56\00:16:07.43
As we descend,
00:16:07.46\00:16:08.80
we become
surrounded by the hoodoos.
00:16:08.83\00:16:11.03
What an amazing view.
00:16:19.74\00:16:22.14
I've got to sketch this.
00:16:22.18\00:16:23.51
You know what?
00:16:37.66\00:16:38.99
I have an idea,
00:16:39.03\00:16:40.36
why don't we go visit
00:16:40.40\00:16:41.73
one of the most
dramatic examples
00:16:41.76\00:16:43.10
of erosion in the world.
00:16:43.13\00:16:44.80
Come on.
00:16:44.83\00:16:47.34
Let's get back to the jeep.
00:16:47.37\00:16:49.14
We are heading
to the Grand Canyon.
00:16:49.17\00:16:51.54
Hi, everyone,
it's Doc M here at HQ.
00:17:01.58\00:17:04.19
If Rich is
investigating erosion today,
00:17:04.22\00:17:06.42
I just know the
flood will be part
00:17:06.45\00:17:08.62
of his investigation.
00:17:08.66\00:17:10.19
You know, almost
everyone has heard
00:17:10.23\00:17:11.66
of the flood story in the Bible.
00:17:11.69\00:17:14.50
Here's a classic
painting, the ark.
00:17:14.53\00:17:19.63
Look cute little sheep
and lion and everything.
00:17:19.67\00:17:23.00
Some people choose not
to believe in the Bible.
00:17:23.04\00:17:26.17
They just assume the
flood is not a true story.
00:17:26.21\00:17:28.98
What many people don't know
00:17:29.01\00:17:30.35
is that the Bible
is only one of the many
00:17:30.38\00:17:31.91
historical
documents in the world
00:17:31.95\00:17:33.31
that talks about the flood,
00:17:33.35\00:17:35.32
yeah.
00:17:35.35\00:17:36.69
Historians have
documented almost 300 stories
00:17:36.72\00:17:38.55
from ancient historical
texts from all over the world
00:17:38.59\00:17:41.22
that talk about a flood
00:17:41.26\00:17:42.59
and a basic story
line as told in the Bible.
00:17:42.62\00:17:45.66
Look, these are
some of the modern
00:17:45.69\00:17:47.73
and ancient names, and
countries, and cultures
00:17:47.76\00:17:50.33
besides the Bible that
describe ancient stories
00:17:50.37\00:17:53.20
about an enormous flood.
00:17:53.23\00:17:57.01
Argentina, Assyrian,
Babylon, that's modern day Iraq,
00:17:57.04\00:18:01.64
Australia, Bolivia, Brazil,
British Columbia, and Canada,
00:18:01.68\00:18:07.22
Cameroon, Chile, China,
Ecuador, Egypt, Germany,
00:18:07.25\00:18:12.39
Greece, India, The Ivory Coast,
Kenya, Korea, Mexico, Mongolia,
00:18:12.42\00:18:17.66
Nigeria, New
Guinea, New Zealand, Peru,
00:18:17.69\00:18:20.80
The Philippines,
Rome, Scandinavia, Siberia,
00:18:20.83\00:18:24.17
Thailand, Turkey.
00:18:24.20\00:18:26.17
Wow and even in
the United States
00:18:26.20\00:18:30.07
dozens of
Native American stories
00:18:30.11\00:18:32.04
about a great
flood, even from Alaska.
00:18:32.07\00:18:35.48
That's almost
300 different stories
00:18:35.51\00:18:38.85
and some of these documents
are thousands of years old.
00:18:38.88\00:18:42.45
Is it really a coincidence
that people from practically
00:18:42.48\00:18:45.05
every corner of the world
wrote about the same huge event?
00:18:45.09\00:18:49.16
I don't think so.
00:18:49.19\00:18:50.53
I don't think so at all.
00:18:50.56\00:18:53.29
Look at this
ancient Chinese word.
00:18:53.33\00:18:56.10
This is the Chinese
character or the Chinese word
00:18:56.13\00:18:59.33
for large vessel, the ship.
00:18:59.37\00:19:02.30
The word is made up of
three separate characters.
00:19:02.34\00:19:05.04
Look at what the
three characters are.
00:19:05.07\00:19:07.48
Ship right
here, eight, up there,
00:19:07.51\00:19:11.05
and people right
there in the bottom right.
00:19:11.08\00:19:13.98
Altogether make a large vessel,
00:19:14.02\00:19:16.65
even languages that
are thousands of years old
00:19:16.69\00:19:18.89
tell the story
of the great flood.
00:19:18.92\00:19:22.86
That's why I'm convinced
and believe more than ever
00:19:22.89\00:19:26.26
that God is my creator.
00:19:26.29\00:19:28.40
Hey, everyone,
it's me, Rich Aguilera.
00:19:32.30\00:19:34.54
I'd love to see you at
one of our live events.
00:19:34.57\00:19:37.27
To see, where I'll be speaking,
00:19:37.31\00:19:38.87
visit our website
TheCreationCase.com.
00:19:38.91\00:19:42.21
You know what?
00:19:52.19\00:19:53.52
I've got to pull
over so you can see this.
00:19:53.56\00:19:55.46
This is one of
the most amazing parts
00:19:55.49\00:19:57.19
of the south-western desert.
00:19:57.23\00:19:58.59
What seems like an
endless desert here
00:20:01.63\00:20:04.63
continues to amaze me
with these incredible views.
00:20:04.67\00:20:08.14
This place is
called Monument Valley.
00:20:15.28\00:20:17.55
A long time ago
00:20:17.58\00:20:18.91
this used to be
a giant ancient sea
00:20:18.95\00:20:20.85
until the water drained away
00:20:20.88\00:20:22.38
and eroded these
cool mount formations.
00:20:22.42\00:20:26.42
These tall
formations are called buttes.
00:20:26.45\00:20:29.22
They show us how the
different rock layers
00:20:29.26\00:20:31.63
each contained
different elements
00:20:31.66\00:20:33.60
that erode differently.
00:20:33.63\00:20:36.67
Isn't it amazing
that everywhere we look,
00:20:36.70\00:20:39.77
there is evidence
of erosion by water.
00:20:39.80\00:20:42.34
This is the Grand Canyon.
00:20:54.48\00:20:56.99
No one ever forget the
first time they arrive here
00:20:57.02\00:20:59.25
and look over the
rim down into the canyon.
00:20:59.29\00:21:01.86
A lot of people think
00:21:12.40\00:21:13.74
that this is just a big
giant crack in the ground
00:21:13.77\00:21:16.14
but it's not,
00:21:16.17\00:21:17.51
we're actually
7,000 feet above sea level
00:21:17.54\00:21:19.87
on a high plateau.
00:21:19.91\00:21:22.24
The bottom of the canyon
00:21:22.28\00:21:23.61
is still 2,500
feet above sea level.
00:21:23.65\00:21:27.78
It's amazing to think
how big this canyon is.
00:21:27.82\00:21:33.15
It's about 18 miles
across at its widest point
00:21:33.19\00:21:36.39
and almost 270
miles from end to end.
00:21:36.42\00:21:40.53
To get a good
look at this place,
00:21:40.56\00:21:42.20
we need to hike
down into the canyon.
00:21:42.23\00:21:44.33
Come on, let's go.
00:21:44.37\00:21:47.54
As we head down into the canyon,
00:21:47.57\00:21:49.64
the first thing we
find are steep switchbacks
00:21:49.67\00:21:53.11
and very uneven terrain.
00:21:53.14\00:21:55.31
Here at the Grand Canyon,
00:21:58.75\00:22:00.25
evolution teaches
00:22:00.28\00:22:01.75
that the Colorado
River at the bottom
00:22:01.78\00:22:03.42
carved out this canyon
over millions of years,
00:22:03.45\00:22:05.95
but physical evidence
00:22:05.99\00:22:07.32
points more too massive erosion.
00:22:07.36\00:22:11.89
After a global
flood, you would expect
00:22:11.93\00:22:14.60
to see massive lakes and
seas forming all over the world.
00:22:14.63\00:22:18.30
If a lake were, say
8,000 feet above sea level,
00:22:22.34\00:22:26.17
you would expect it would
want to drain to lower ground.
00:22:26.21\00:22:29.44
That's a lot of pressure.
00:22:29.48\00:22:31.15
A lot of water trying
to get to lower ground.
00:22:31.18\00:22:35.05
If a small leak were to develop,
00:22:35.08\00:22:37.39
the earth would give a way
to a massive torrent of water.
00:22:37.42\00:22:40.82
That's actually
what we see here.
00:22:48.36\00:22:51.37
It appears that this high desert
00:22:51.40\00:22:53.54
was at the edge
of a huge inland sea
00:22:53.57\00:22:55.97
after the flood.
00:22:56.00\00:22:58.24
As the waters drained,
00:22:58.27\00:22:59.91
this edge of that sea
00:22:59.94\00:23:01.54
wasn't able to
hold back those waters
00:23:01.58\00:23:03.75
and they rushed
down towards the Pacific.
00:23:03.78\00:23:06.72
The pressure of all that water
00:23:06.75\00:23:08.38
eventually carved this
canyon into the ground.
00:23:08.42\00:23:12.82
It's possible that
at the end of the flood
00:23:12.85\00:23:15.32
water from that large inland sea
00:23:15.36\00:23:17.69
rushed down into
the Pacific Ocean
00:23:17.73\00:23:19.89
right through here.
00:23:19.93\00:23:22.03
The Colorado River cuts
down the middle of this canyon,
00:23:22.06\00:23:25.67
but there are also hundreds
00:23:25.70\00:23:27.04
of very deep
side canyons here too.
00:23:27.07\00:23:29.77
There is no evidence
00:23:29.80\00:23:31.14
that a river cut
those side canyons.
00:23:31.17\00:23:33.58
So how did they get there?
00:23:33.61\00:23:35.91
It appears that
they were carved quickly
00:23:35.94\00:23:38.18
by one massive event,
00:23:38.21\00:23:39.88
tons of water
gushing through here,
00:23:39.91\00:23:42.22
not millions of years of rivers.
00:23:42.25\00:23:44.65
The rate of
erosion today is slow.
00:23:44.69\00:23:47.56
It's caused by
natural events as well as man,
00:23:47.59\00:23:50.59
but the dramatic
erosion that happened here
00:23:50.63\00:23:53.09
was caused by something huge.
00:23:53.13\00:23:55.03
The other thing
about the Colorado River,
00:23:58.27\00:24:00.37
it enters a canyon
00:24:00.40\00:24:01.74
in about 2,800
feet above sea level
00:24:01.77\00:24:03.97
and exits the canyon at about
1,800 feet above sea level.
00:24:04.01\00:24:07.64
Water runs downhill, right?
00:24:07.68\00:24:10.18
But as the river is
going down in elevation,
00:24:10.21\00:24:13.05
the land around it
is only going higher.
00:24:13.08\00:24:16.15
A river couldn't
have carved this canyon
00:24:16.18\00:24:18.52
because rivers
can't flow uphill.
00:24:18.55\00:24:22.49
It's very possible
that this canyon was eroded
00:24:22.52\00:24:26.19
at the end of the
flood as the waters receded.
00:24:26.23\00:24:29.33
Sometimes fossils can be found
going through multiple layers,
00:24:36.50\00:24:40.64
how could a log or an
animal become partially buried
00:24:40.68\00:24:44.41
wait there for a million
years and finish getting buried.
00:24:44.45\00:24:48.25
This also shows that no
time passed between layers.
00:24:48.28\00:24:52.85
I think I'm going to
write that in my journal.
00:24:52.89\00:24:54.42
Fossils that go through
multiple layers are evidence
00:24:59.36\00:25:02.86
that there are not millions
of years between layers.
00:25:02.90\00:25:05.90
Over and over the evidence here
00:25:09.37\00:25:11.97
points to the layers of sediment
00:25:12.01\00:25:13.74
that were quickly
deposited on the surface
00:25:13.78\00:25:16.08
as well as the
massive amount of erosion
00:25:16.11\00:25:18.41
that carved the
surface of our planet.
00:25:18.45\00:25:20.48
We sure visited
some amazing places
00:25:31.89\00:25:34.10
for today's assignment.
00:25:34.13\00:25:35.86
Water looks so harmless
when you drink a cup of it,
00:25:35.90\00:25:38.93
but the
evidence we've seen today
00:25:38.97\00:25:40.87
shows us water has
enormous destructive power,
00:25:40.90\00:25:44.37
especially when there
is a lot of it involved.
00:25:44.41\00:25:47.78
Well, I need to finish up
my report and send it to HQ.
00:25:47.81\00:25:51.35
Remember, if
you want to read it,
00:25:51.38\00:25:53.11
just go to our website.
00:25:53.15\00:25:54.48
There is so much evidence
on the surface of our planet
00:26:01.26\00:26:04.33
that shows how water has eroded
00:26:04.36\00:26:07.26
the landscape all over.
00:26:07.30\00:26:11.53
It doesn't take
millions of years
00:26:11.57\00:26:13.90
to form canyons,
00:26:13.94\00:26:15.70
just the right conditions.
00:26:15.74\00:26:17.21
Fossils that go through
multiple layers are evidence
00:26:20.38\00:26:23.95
that there are not millions
of years between layers.
00:26:23.98\00:26:27.15
When something erodes,
00:26:36.56\00:26:38.29
it pretty much always means
00:26:38.33\00:26:40.23
something is getting destroyed.
00:26:40.26\00:26:42.83
If there is one thing
00:26:42.86\00:26:44.20
we need to protect from erosion,
00:26:44.23\00:26:46.03
it's our relationship with God.
00:26:46.07\00:26:49.07
How does that happen?
00:26:49.10\00:26:51.07
The Bible says in
Psalms 101:3 that,
00:26:51.11\00:26:53.91
"Our eyes shouldn't look
at things that are wicked."
00:26:53.94\00:26:57.65
That means you
have to be careful
00:26:57.68\00:26:59.91
of what you watch or do.
00:26:59.95\00:27:02.78
What kind of movies or TV
do you let your eyes watch?
00:27:02.82\00:27:07.36
What about the things
you see on the internet
00:27:07.39\00:27:10.26
or what kind of
books do you read?
00:27:10.29\00:27:13.23
Another thing,
00:27:13.26\00:27:14.66
don't wait for
someone else to tell you
00:27:14.70\00:27:16.36
what is good or bad,
00:27:16.40\00:27:18.13
start being responsible
for your own decisions
00:27:18.17\00:27:21.20
and avoid things
00:27:21.24\00:27:22.90
that will erode your
relationship with God.
00:27:22.94\00:27:27.01
I hope you'll join me
again for our next assignment.
00:27:27.04\00:27:30.45
Remember, God the
Creator loves what He creates,
00:27:30.48\00:27:34.25
especially you.
00:27:34.28\00:27:35.95
Good night.
00:27:35.98\00:27:37.32
Wait, don't go
yet. We've got bloopers
00:27:47.80\00:27:50.00
It ends, where are we...
00:27:50.03\00:27:52.10
Eroded out of here.
00:27:52.13\00:27:53.47
I think someone stabbed me.
00:27:57.34\00:27:59.14
Again the evidence shows...
00:27:59.17\00:28:01.01
Violent rush of water down
the canyon, craziness ensued.
00:28:04.68\00:28:09.38
Does this evidence
show that this happened?
00:28:09.42\00:28:11.95
According to the Bible...
00:28:15.62\00:28:19.49
Argentina,
00:28:19.53\00:28:21.06
yeah that was pretty
backwards, wasn't it?
00:28:21.10\00:28:23.80
True or false.
00:28:23.83\00:28:25.17
