Mating Turtles Fossilized

isn't it obvious? Finding fossils is scientific research, wich usually is opposed by people who find all their answers in a single book.

but if there is a possibility it supports their cause they suddenly drop all their resentments and embrace it without questioning it.

I think it's important to look at all scientific data though, so that's why it isn't obvious for me what you're saying.

but that's the point! they need to look at all scentific data and not pick out a event that might support their cause in some arbitrary way.

killed instantly by the biblical flood? how is that supposed to work? it's not like turtles are afraid of water or would drown instantly even while mating. i know they are slow animals but that slow that raising waters through a long rain would drown them while mating? that doesn't make sense to me. even if it was explained with a instant floodwave, would they have stuck together like this while being washed away? and all of them washed to the same spot?

anyway, for example: 25 years ago, 1700 people and 3500 livestsock, and maybe even some turtles instantly suffocated at lake nyos when a sudden CO² cloud was realesed. knowing that such things can happen even today tells me that they have not even considered to look at other solutions for the dead mating turteles, but just jumped to their own ridiculous conclusion.
