Sea fossils atop world's mountains fuel claims of Noah's Great Flood

"Marine fossils have been discovered on mountain ranges around the world, including the Himalayas, Andes and Rocky Mountains, which scientists say were once covered by ancient seas before being pushed upward as continents collided and mountains formed."

"Geologists say the shells are remnants of ancient seabeds that were lifted thousands of feet into the air by tectonic forces over millions of years."

"The Great Flood is portrayed in the Book of Genesis as a global catastrophe sent by God to wipe out widespread human corruption and violence. According to the biblical account, Noah was instructed to build a massive ark to preserve his family and pairs of every animal species."

A viral video of hikers finding fossilized seashells in the Guadalupe Mountains has sparked online debate about Noah's Great Flood. The clip shows marine fossils including bivalve shells embedded in rocks. Some viewers interpret these discoveries as evidence supporting the biblical flood narrative described in Genesis. However, geologists explain that marine fossils on mountains worldwide—including the Himalayas, Andes, and Rocky Mountains—are remnants of ancient seabeds lifted thousands of feet by tectonic forces over millions of years. As continents collided and mountains formed, these ocean floors were pushed upward. Despite scientific explanations, the viral discovery generated significant online discussion, with some users claiming it validates flood theories while others emphasized the well-established geological processes behind such fossil formations.
