      Matt lies and knows he’s doing so at times like when he’s been caught out saying one thing and then changed his story within minutes upon more detailed questioning a number of times in a row but I think because he’s homeschooled and immensely ignorant he believes some of the things he repeats.
      I’m not sure if Matt really is below average in intelligence or if it’s just the result of his indoctrination and a lack of a proper education. I mean “space air” being different from the air on earth does seem to suggest that Matt isn’t the sharpest knife but maybe you could put this down to his lack of education and any interest in actually educating himself by even casual browsing through even Wikipedia or children’s books.
      The strange part is Matt feels that he has great enough knowledge to educate and debate people when it’s obvious to almost anyone he has the science education of a 10 year old. Surely even someone with a modicum of intelligence would realise it might be an idea to listen to what the people you want to debate against actually seem to say instead of ignoring them time after time and straw manning them.

    Ignoring that the dolmen grave markers' placement alone, let alone the age of the rocks themselves, took place thousands of years before the Creationists' well, Everything in the universe was created, it sure was very kind of The Flood not to displace the remains of those people from that small coastal cave, and also not to knock down standimg dolmens in Ireland, and similarly not to wash away and destroy traces of ancient Man across the planet.

    A little note about the Opisthotonic Posture, or the classic dinosaur "death pose": we have very good reason to believe it's taphonomic, or that it happened shortly after death, not as a direct cause of it. Scientists found that if you but dead modern birds in calm water, they drift into that pose fairly easily. That's because the tendons that hold the back and neck up are strong enough to override any force pulling them down in the absence of gravity, muscle tension, or friction against solid surfaces. It does need water to work, but it still doesn't lean in Matt's favor for a few simple reasons.
    1) It needs calm water to work, entirely unlike a Tsunami, otherwise they wouldn't be so well preserved.
    2) Drowning isn't necessary to achieve this pose. It only requires that the animal died near a water source.
    3) While it's definitely common, it's also worth pointing out that we still find many fairly complete dinosaur specimens not in that pose.
    4) A tsunami doesn't account for all the dinosaurs we know that died in deserts and buried in sandstone- i.e. *not water*.

      Can someone explain where the extra water came from to cover the whole of the earth to 8,850m, the height of Mount Everest, and where it went to afterwards? Was there a giant tap and drain plug ? Also rocks do bend under extreme pressure and over millions of years. But of course Powell can’t explain the water and can’t believe the world is more than 6004 years old. Silly little simpleton, except he’s making money from his preaching so not so silly.

      You might ask then, why they can't just bond together, since they are all descendants of Abraham.
