Reasons for Deep Time
By Roland Banks
Darwinian or Macro Evolution will not work without the magic ingredient of deep time, billions of years. For simple single cell molecules to evolve into complex living creatures like humans you would need enormous amounts of time. However, recent discoveries have concluded that there is no such thing as a simple single cell, they are all extraordinarily complex.
To promote the theory of uniformitarianism or the very slow deposition of sediment as opposed to catastrophism, the very rapid deposition of sediment as in a global flood. One of the main purposes of uniformitarianism is to rule out the Noahic global flood. Uniformitarianism states that the present is the key to the past, so if there is no global flood in the present there could not have been one in the past.
To provide evidence that the Biblical history of creation is false or a myth and not to be trusted. The proponents of deep time know that by destroying the truth of Genesis 1-11, they destroy the truth of the rest of the Bible. As Paul wrote in Romans 1:21-23, βFor even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four- footed animals and crawling creatures.β
