1588: Noah's Flood w/ Dr. Simon Southerton

Join us for an epic episode on the Mormon teaching of Noah and the worldwide flood with Dr. Simon Southerton and renowned geologist Dr. David Montgomery, professor of geology at the University of Washington in Seattle. We will discuss the probability of Noah’s flood being a factual event in history and how the Mormon Church has dealt with this issue. Dr. Southerton will share an interesting Australian perspective regarding the flood. <p>Show Notes:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.newscientist.com/article/2317115-dingo-genome-suggests-australian-icon-not-descended-from-domestic-dogs/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">“Dingo genome suggests Australian icon not descended from domestic dogs,” by Alice Klein, <em>New Scientist</em>, April 22, 2022</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/1998/01/the-flood-and-the-tower-of-babel?lang=eng" rel="noopener" target="_blank">From the slide presentation:</a><br /> <a href="https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/1998/01/the-flood-and-the-tower-of-babel?lang=eng" rel="noopener" target="_blank">“The flood and the Tower of Babel,” by Donald W Parry, <em>Ensign</em>, January 1998</a></li> <li><a href="https://mormonstories.org/truth-claims/the-books/the-book-of-mormon/dna-and-the-book-of-mormon/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">“DNA and the Book of Mormon” on Mormon Stories</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Rocks-Dont-Lie-Geologist-Investigates/dp/0393346242/ref=asc_df_0393346242/?tag=hyprod-20&amp;amp&amp;linkCode=df0&amp;amp&amp;hvadid=312065538926&amp;amp&amp;hvpos=&amp;amp&amp;hvnetw=g&amp;amp&amp;hvrand=8060766061270731217&amp;amp&amp;hvpone=&amp;amp&amp;hvptwo=&amp;amp&amp;hvqmt=&amp;amp&amp;hvdev=c&amp;amp&amp;hvdvcmdl=&amp;amp&amp;hvlocint=&amp;amp&amp;hvlocphy=9029774&amp;amp&amp;hvtargid=pla-488434462771&amp;amp&amp;psc=1" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><em>The Rocks Don’t Lie</em> by David Montgomery</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMaUzNlDnSY">"Noah's flood and the development of geology," David Montgomery's TedTalk</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/William-Buckland" rel="noopener" target="_blank">William Buckland</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.nps.gov/places/clark-fork-ice-dam.htm" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Ice Dam on the Clark Fork River breached 14,000 years ago, National Park Service</a></li> <li><a href="https://epod.usra.edu/blog/2014/09/the-bonneville-flood-and-idahos-red-rock-pass.html" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Bonneville Outflow via Red Rock Pass, Idaho, 14,000 years ago, Earth Science Picture of the Day</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missoula_floods" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Missoula floods 1920s</a></li> <li><a href="https://anchor.fm/mormonexpression/episodes/30-The-Dream-Mine-e17ue6g" rel="noopener" target="_blank">“The Dream Mine,” on Mormon Expression podcast</a></li> <li><a href="https://sunstone.org/noahs-flood-modern-scholarship-and-mormon-tradition/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">“Noah’s Flood: Modern scholarship and the Mormon Tradition,” by Duane E Jeffery, <em>Sunstone</em>, January 1, 2004</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.ldsliving.com/5-answers-to-difficult-questions-about-noah-and-the-flood/s/87471" rel="noopener" target="_blank">“5 answers to difficult questions about Noah and the flood,” by Stephen O.
