This category seeks to present scientific evidence for catastrophic events in earth's history. This evidence opposes the prevailing theory of naturalism based on the assumption that current natural processes occurred in the same manner and at the same rate throughout the history of this universe. The interpretation of the evidence generally favors a short chronology or a young history of the earth, measured in thousands rather than billions of years. In particular, most of the sites in this category present evidence for a deluge of such proportions as to validate the account of a world-wide flood account in Genesis.
