Geologi air bah: Perbedaan antara revisi

{{Kreasionisme}}'''Geologi air bah''' ('''{{lang-en|Flood geology}}''' atau '''''creation geology''''', '''''diluvial geology''''') adalah suatu interpretasi dari sejarah [[geologi]] [[planet]] [[bumi]] dalam hubungannya dengan [[air bah (mitologi)|air bah]] yang melanda seluruh bumi seperti yang digambarkan dalam [[Kitab Kejadian]] [[Kejadian 6|pasal 6]][[Kejadian 9|–9]] dalam [[Alkitab Ibrani]] dan [[Perjanjian Lama]] di [[Alkitab]] [[Kristen]]. Pandangan-pandangan serupa berperan penting dalam perkembangan awal ilmu [[geologi]], meskipun setelah kronologi Alkitab yang dikemukakan oleh [[James Ussher]] ditolak oleh mayoritas [[geolog]], yang lebih menerima usia bumi yang jauh lebih lama. Geologi air bah merupakan suatu bidang studi di dalam [[Kreasionisme|"ilmu pengetahuan penciptaan" ("''creation science''")]].{{sfn|Parkinson|2004|pp=24–27}}<ref>{{harvnb|Evans|2009}}</ref>

Suatu air bah yang menutupi seluruh dunia dianggap dapat menjelaskan hal-hal berikut:<ref name=waltbrown>[http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/ Walt Brown: In the Beginning: Compelling Evidence for Creation and the Flood] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230513203207/http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/ |date=2023-05-13 }}. 8th Edition.

Geologi air bah secara publik dianggap bertentangan dengan pandangan ilmuwan dalam bidang geologi, [[paleontologi]], kimia, fisika, biologi, geofisika, dan stratigrafi,{{sfn|Delgado|2006}}{{sfn|Young|1995}}{{sfn|Isaak|2006}}{{sfn|Morton|2001}}{{sfn|Isaak|2007|p=173}}{{sfn|Stewart|2010|p=123}}<ref>[{{Cite web |url=http://www.talkorigins.org/origins/postmonth/may04.html |title=The Talk.Origins Archive Post of the Month: May 2004] |access-date=2012-12-04 |archive-date=2021-07-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210716163851/http://www.talkorigins.org/origins/postmonth/may04.html |dead-url=no }}</ref> dan [[komunitas ilmiah]] menganggapnya sebagai [[pseudosains]].{{sfn|Schadewald|1982|pp=12-17}}{{sfn|Scott|2003}} Meskipun demikian, akhir-akhir ini dunia ilmu mulai menerima hipotesis [[Bumi bola salju|"Bumi bola salju" (''Snowball Earth'')]] di mana ditemukan bukti bahwa seluruh bumi pernah tertutup es (= air beku) pada masa silam (sekitar 650 juta tahun lalu), yang sekalipun tidak berkaitan langsung dengan geologi air bah, memberikan argumen yang mirip bahwa bumi pernah sama sekali tertutup air.<ref>[http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/327/5970/1241 Calibrating the [[Cryogenian]], Abstract only:] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100916054407/http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/327/5970/1241 |date=2010-09-16 }} "Ice ... implies that the Sturtian glaciation was global in extent". 5 March 2010.</ref><ref>[http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/03/100304142228.htm?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:%20sciencedaily%20%28ScienceDaily:%20Latest%20Science%20News%29&utm_content=Google%20Feedfetcher Snowball Earth: New Evidence Hints at Global Glaciation 716.5 Million Years Ago] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230205095700/https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/03/100304142228.htm?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:%20sciencedaily%20(ScienceDaily:%20Latest%20Science%20News)&utm_content=Google%20Feedfetcher |date=2023-02-05 }} Geologists have found evidence that sea ice extended to the equator 716.5 million years ago. 5 March 2010.</ref>

Dalam zaman penerangan (''Age of Enlightenment''), para naturalis mulai mengusulkan penyebab alamiah untuk menjelaskan mujizat-mujizat yang tertulis di Alkitab. Penjelasan alamiah untuk air bah global diberikan oleh [[:en:John Woodward (naturalist)|John Woodward]] (1695) dan muridnya, [[William Whiston]] (1696).{{sfn|Porter|2003|p= [[John Woodward (naturalist)|John Woodward]], (1695), ''An Essay Toward a Natural History of the Earth'' and [[William Whiston]], (1696), ''New Theory of the Earth''.}}

Ilmu pengetahuan geologi modern dimulai di Eropa pada abad ke-18.<ref>Perkumpulan geolog profesional tertua di dunia adalah [http://www.geolsoc.org.uk/gsl/society/bicentenary Geological Society of London] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070513043846/http://www.geolsoc.org.uk/gsl/society/bicentenary |date=2007-05-13 }}, dibentuk pada tahun 1807; istilah "geologi" sendiri dipopulerkan malalui penggunaannya dalam ''Encyclopedie'' tahun 1751.</ref> Para pakar bidang ini berusaha memahami sejarah dan pembentukan bumi melalui bukti-bukti fisik yang ditemukan dalam batu-batuan dan mineral. Banyak geolog mula-mula juga pemimpin gereja, sehingga mereka berusaha mencari hubungan sejarah geologi dunia sesuai yang tertulis di Alkitab. Teori kuno bahwa fosil itu merupakan pembentukan alamiah dari bahan-bahan tanah yang mengalami tekanan plastis sudah ditinggalkan, dengan pengakuan bahwa fosil merupakan peninggalan makhluk-makhluk yang pernah hidup sebelumnya. Hal ini menimbulkan pertanyaan: bagaimana fosil makhluk laut dapat ditemukan di daratan, atau bahkan di puncak-puncak gunung?

[[Berkas:Hutton Unconformity , Jedburgh.jpg|jmpl|lurus|ka|Pada abad ke-18, penemuan-penemuan seperti [[:en:Hutton's Unconformity|Hutton's Unconformity]] menunjukkan lapisan-lapisan yang terjungkir, tererosi dan bertumpuk, menunjukkan "abyss of time" pada [[skala waktu geologi]].]]

Geologi modern dan cabang-cabangnya menggunakan metode sains untuk menganalisis geologi bumi. Prinsip kunci geologi air bah ditolak oleh kebanyakan analisis ilmiah dan tidak didukung sebagian besar komunitas sains.{{sfn|Delgado|2006}}{{sfn|Young|1995}}{{sfn|Isaak|2006}}{{sfn|Morton|2001}}{{sfn|Isaak|2007|p=173}}{{sfn|Stewart|2010|p=123}} [[Geologi]] modern bersandar pada sejumlah prinsip yang sudah tersusun, salah satu yang terpenting di antaranya adalah prinsip dari [[Charles Lyell]] mengenai [[:en:uniformitarianism (science)|uniformitarianisme]]. Dalam kaitan dengan kekuatan-kekuatan geologis dikatakan bahwa pembentukan bumi terjadi dari kekuatan berlangsung lambat yang dapat dilihat sekarang. Dengan mengaplikasikan prinsip-prinsip ini para geolog dapat menentukan bahwa usia bumi adalah sekitar 4,5 miliar tahun. Mereka mempelajari [[litosfer]] bumi untuk mendapatkan informasi sejarah planet ini. Geolog membagi sejarah bumi dalam ''[[eon|kurun (''eon'')]]'', [[:en:Era (geology)|era]], [[:en:Period (geology)|periode]], [[Kala (geologi)|kala (''epoch'')]], dan [[:en:faunal stages|tingkatan fauna]] yang ditandai dengan potongan-potongan terdefinisi baik dalam [[:en:fossil record|catatan fosil]] (lihat [[skala waktu geologi]]).{{sfn|Lutgens|Tarbuck|Tasa|2005}}{{sfn|Tarbuck|Lutgens|2006}} Pada umumnya, belum cukup bukti dari efek di atas yang dikemukakan oleh pendukung geologi air bah, sehingga tidak mendapat dukungan serius dari para ilmuwan.{{sfn|Isaak|1998}}

[[Berkas:Siccar point SE cliff.jpg|jmpl|lurus|kiri|[[:en:Unconformity|Angular unconformity]] yang ditemukan oleh [[James Hutton]] pada tahun 1788 di [[:en:Siccar Point|Siccar Point]] menunjukkan waktu yang ditempuh oleh erosi batu terjungkir dan deposisi lapisan-lapisan bertumpuk.]]

Geologi air bah belum dapat menjelaskan formasi geologi seperti [[:en:Unconformity|angular unconformities]], di mana batuan sedimentari terjungkir dan tererosi kemudian lebih banyak lapisan lagi bertumpuk di atasnya, membutuhkan waktu lama untuk proses semacam ini. Juga dibutuhkan waktu lama untuk erosi lembah pada pegunungan batu sedimen. Contoh lain, jika air bah terjadi, maka efek ini tentunya tersebar luas dan dalam skala besar di seluruh dunia. Erosi seharusnya tersebar merata, tetapi kenyataannya ada perbedaan besar antara erosi di [[:en:Appalachian Mountains|pegunungan Appalachian]] dan [[Rocky Mountains]].{{sfn|Isaak|1998}}

Jika air bah menyebabkan fosilisasi, maka semua hewan yang sekarang menjadi fosil tentunya hidup bersama di bumi sesaat sebelum datangnya air bah. Berdasarkan perkiraan jumlah bekas-bekas yang terkubur dalam [[:en:Karoo Supergroup|formasi fosil Karoo]] di [[Afrika]], ini bersesuaian dengan kepadatan tinggi yang tidak normal dari vertebrata di seluruh dunia, hampir 2100 per acre.{{sfn|Schadewald|1982|pp=12-17}} Para pendukung [[kreasionisme]] berargumen bahwa bukti dari [[:en:Geologic time scale|kolom geologi]] adalah sepotong-sepotong (''fragmentary''), dan semua lapisan kompleks kapur terjadi mendekati hari ke-150 air bah zaman [[Nuh]].{{sfn|Wilson|2001}}{{sfn|Mathews|2009}} Namun, kolom geologi ditemukan pada beberapa tempat dan menunjukkan ciri-ciri beragam, termasuk bukti erosi dan penyusupan ke dalam lapisan-lapisan lebih tua, yang tidak dapat dijelaskan dalam skala waktu singkat. Tanah keras karbonat (''carbonate hardground'') dan fosil yang berkaitan menunjukkan apa yang disebut "sedimen air bah" mencakup bukti deposisi yang berhenti lama yang tidak konsisten dengan dinamika maupun waktu air bah.{{sfn|Morton|2001}}

Pendukung geologi air bah mendapat kesulitan menjelaskan alternasi antara ''[[:en:calcite sea|calcite sea]]'' dan ''[[:en:aragonite sea|aragonite sea]]'' sepanjang era Phanerozoik. Pola bersiklus ''[[:en:carbonate hardgrounds|carbonate hardgrounds]]'', ooid kalsitik dan aragonitik, serta fauna bercangkang kalsit tampaknya dikontrol oleh kecepatan penyebaran dasar lautan (''[[:en:seafloor spreading|seafloor spreading]]'') rates and pembilasan air laut melalui ''[[:en:hydrothermal vent|hydrothermal vent]]'' yang mengubah rasio Mg/Ca.{{sfn|Stanley|Hardie|1999|pp1-7}}
