The Location of The City of Enoch

[Spaced_Out]

The fact that the landmass was at one stage a single large continent is proven through geology, ecology etc.. It is just the timing of the split that is under question.

This is not a fact it is a theory. Do you worship God or science? All this crap science is Darwinism. Al based on assumptions. More and more of these crap theories are gbeing rewritten every day. The Darwinists bury anything that can't be explained by their antichrist theories. They find iron hammers in solid rock. Lots of unexplained objects in million year old coal. Ignored! They ignore the evidence that darwins theories are wrong. I will believe Joseph Smith any day over antichrist Darwinists.

It is a fact just like it is a fact that dinosaurs walked the earth - the only issue is of timing.
I have a degree in geology as well as a few other degrees. We are commanded in the scriptures to learn about that which is in the earth and above the earth. God's word and science do not contradict.

The scripture clearly states that the oceans will flee to the north and the countries will be placed back to their original locations. Pangaea originally comes from the south all the contents were joined in the southern hemisphere.

Looks like someone took a rather large scoop.

Yeah a rather strange shape to say the least. there is no defined fault lines or joint, structures etc.. that would usually form such a shape. A quick scan of geological history of the gulf states that it has unusual geological structures, and is supposed to have been formed by sea floor spreading. Yeah very difficult to explain how it was formed so the 'aliens/extra terrestrials' might of been responsible and with any luck will return.
It would not be politically correct to say that it was taken to an unknown heaven for a future date return.

FYI geological history only goes back as far as we have written records. Only God has a written history of this world and so far that complete history is probably contained in the sealed portion of the Book of Mormon. Unfortunately, we don't have access to that yet. Until we do all we have are rocks and fossils and a bunch of "scientist" taking their best guess as to how they all got there.

You need to do more study and stop making wild accusations that are baseless.
Doctrine and Covenants 88:79,104
79 Of things both in heaven and in the earth, and under the earth; things which have been, things which are, things which must shortly come to pass; things which are at home, things which are abroad; the wars and the perplexities of the nations, and the judgments which are on the land; and a knowledge also of countries and of kingdoms—

Having a bad day GrandmasterB?

Pretty good day actually. Just tired of seeing all this antichrist nonsense from people who are supposed to know better. If Joseph said that the city of Enoch left the hole where the gulf was than that is what happened. I have more faith in that than I ever will in Darwinism. It is amazing to me that some people accept the theories of these scientist as fact yet most of these same scientist deny the existence of God. If this isn't the philosophies of men mingled with scripture than I don't know what is.

It is pure science the same science that is used to drill for oil, mine minerals, study earthquakes and volcanoes, put spacecraft into space etc.. Again we are commanded to learn these things. That knowledge can be used for example to determine a safe place to build your house away from fault structures or flood zone ore areas were liquefaction can be a problem - ignore it at your own peril.

No one here it talking about Darwinism, was James E, Talmage also an Antichrist.

James E. Talmage (1862–1933)
James Edward Talmage was 13 years old when his family emigrated from their native England and settled in Provo, Utah.

Intelligent and thirsty for knowledge, James was a part-time member of the faculty of the Brigham Young Academy in Provo, Utah, by the time he was 17. He went on to study chemistry and geology at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania and at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. Membership in many prominent scientific societies gave James Talmage access to important people and publications and helped him combat much of the prejudice faced by Latter-day Saints at the time.

You make a mistake by assuming the continents were shaped as they are now. Around a quarter billion years ago there was no Gulf of Mexico. When it began to form the (now) Yucatan peninsula became a big island with a relatively small moat. That moat grew and eventually the Yucatan moved to its present location.

Of course you need to go further back in history to find the continent of Pangaea, and the popular interpretation of Genesis 10:25 and Chronicles 1:19 is that all of this division happened during Peleg's life, but we really don't know. I would be very surprised to learn that the Gulf of Mexico is the location of this city becaue the Sigsbee abyssal plain averages over 5,000 feet deep with a maximum depth over 12,000 feet.

Too bad this is just flawed theory. You make the mistake of assuming the earth is a least 250 million years old. There is no evedience to support this.

Yes, just as there is no evidence to support the claim that the Earth isn't at the center of the universe. Because scientifically based radiometric dating isn't evidence of anything you choose to not believe in.
