[PAR] [TLE] Flood geology [SEP] Flood geology (also creation geology or diluvial geology) is the attempt to interpret and reconcile geological features of the Earth in accordance with a literal belief in the global flood described in Genesis .  In the early-19th century, diluvial geologists hypothesized that specific surface features were evidence of a worldwide flood which had followed earlier geological eras; after further investigation they agreed that these features resulted from local floods or glaciers.  In the 20th century, young Earth creationists revived flood geology as an overarching concept in their opposition to evolution, assuming a recent six-day Creation and cataclysmic geological changes during the Biblical Deluge, and incorporating creationist explanations of the sequence of rock strata. [PAR] [TLE] John C. Whitcomb [SEP] John Clement Whitcomb, Jr. (born June 22, 1924 in Washington, D.C.) is an American theologian and young earth creationist.  He is well known as the co-author with Henry M. Morris of "The Genesis Flood", which influenced many conservative American Christians to adopt Flood geology.
