Sometimes I want to comment on a thing, but I’m not sure I want to do a full article on it. So, this week I’m taking three of those things and giving each a paragraph or two apiece. They aren’t connected. Just think of it as “highlighted news items of the week” or something like […]

“The eruption demonstrated that geologic catastrophe can produce in hours and days geologic features previously believed to have taken millions of years. When we see what the volcano did in such a short time, we can better appreciate how the catastrophe of Noah’s Flood formed the much larger geological features on planet Earth.” — Dr. […]
