Was Earth totally Submerged before?

YouTube - Proof of Many Great Global Floods -...

I made this video for a reply in another thread but i felt it was a good presentation for a new thread.

I have been researching antedeluvian history and post and I have come across overwhelming written and oral evidences for a global flood that effected many cultures in our not to distant past.

Many ancient cities have been rediscovered high up in the mountains or on plains. Some of them are at such heights that it leaves too many questions as to why exspecially when their old tales tell of why they were there, a great flood.

With so many missing links in our past one can imagine the magnitude and destruction of a global flood would have on the human race including all the animal and veggies.

The geological features shown in the video (continents, mountain ranges, plains, valleys etc) do not stem from a "not too distant past", but stem from geological activity over billions of years.

While it is possible to show water filling all land, that does not mean it has happened. Plate tectonics explain why we have mountains. I don't know of a single ancient city that was known to have been built at low level and then rediscovered higher up. The only similar places I am aware of are stone age settlements here in Norway, which were built during the ice age, and rose to slightly higher levels when the ice retreated, which caused the land to rise. This would be 6000-10000 years ago, but we are not talking major changes in altitude.

What are the "missing links to our past" that you are talking about?

I would recommend posting more evidence and links to backup to support your claim.

Who says billions of years? Those are just theories. Stoneaged thinking.

You can google underwater ancient cities. Building have been found off the coast of Binimi,Japan, India, Egypt and Mexico, it seems that earth flooded in our NOT TO DISTANT past, whether the water covered the whole earth at this time i doubt it.

It does not mean it did not happen as well, for there is more evidence supporting global flooding than there is not.

Plate tectonics explain why we have mountains.

NO that's not FACT, that is only a THEORY, One theory that most generic people agree with does not make it a scientific fact. If it were true I wouldn't be paid to do what i do.

I don't know of a single ancient city that was known to have been built at low level and then rediscovered higher up.

Whether YOU know or not is really insignificant in the mountains of evidence nor does it make it right or wrong, sorry.

What you are aware of, again, is really insignificant and really doesnt change anyones opinions. I recommend you research a little bit before replying.
Try wikipedia, i heard it's easy to read.

Who is talking major changes in altitude? Water elevation, yes.

There is evidence that the worlds oceans swelled almost 5miles above sea level and almost dried to 4miles below sea level. There is tons of pictures and any child with google earth can tell you where the ancient coast lines are Kilometers below sealevel. So with your logic , Earth Sank into the Ocean than rose? Would it not be a little more realistic to claim that sea levels fluctuate rather than the continents being floaty rock pads?

What are the "missing links to our past" that you are talking about?

Missing links in our evolution but the more recent, missing links in our civilizations.

This topic belongs in either Strange Claims or Alternative Theories. Your video proves nothing except the ability to create an animated video. Please don't hijack forums and threads.

Since I am new on this forum and do not feel myself an expert on the subject of the great flood mentioned in the Bible, I should not really comment on this tread as it is heading for a fight. Your comment on plate tectonics however forces me to comment.

As you said, Wiki is very easy to read, so I will quote from their pages what the meaning of THEORY is.

In science, a theory is a mathematical or logical explanation, or a testable model of the manner of interaction of a set of natural phenomena, capable of predicting future occurrences or observations of the same kind, and capable of being tested through experiment or otherwise falsified through empirical observation. It follows from this that for scientists "theory" and "fact" do not necessarily stand in opposition. Wikipedia

So the THEORY of Plate Tectonics is far from speculation or the personal understanding of a few geologist's flawed interpretation of what they saw in the world's geology, unlike the Bible which is mostly written as a second hand account and can thus now show prove of authenticity.

And if you think I speak from the wrong side of the fence, I do believe in GOD, but a GOD that is capable of anything, not an assembler of a Meccano set earth.
