Mount Everest’s Peak has Ancient Sea Fossils, as Some Hope it Proves Bible Story of Noah’s Ark

/0 Comments/in , /by

The rock sitting atop the world’s tallest mountain is loaded with ancient sea creature fossils — which some are now claiming proves the Bible story of the floods and Noah’s Ark were real events.

The rocks making up Mount Everest’s summit contain the fossilized remains of ancient marine creatures, proof that the highest point on the planet was once sitting at the bottom of the ocean, according to a 2005 finding by the International Union of Geological Sciences.

Geologists believe the summit’s limestone formed on an ancient seafloor and was later thrust upward to form the massive mountain when two gigantic tectonic plates collided with each other around 55 million years ago.

But a now-viral post has brought the old finding back into the spotlight — and has many pointing to it as proof that the Great Flood described in the Book of Genesis really happened.

“Mount Everest contains marine rocks, proving that the highest point on Earth was once at the bottom of the ocean — doesn’t the Bible mention something about that?” David J. Harris, a right-wing news host for Newsmax, wrote on X in a post that has now garnered over 500,000 views.

6,613 pounds of trash — more than 3 tons — have been collected from Mount Everest since mid-April, with plenty more to go, according to recent reports.

Four dead bodies have also been located during the campaign to clean the mountain, which began on April 14 out of Nepal, according to The Himalayan Times. Officials expect they will remove a total of 11 tons of garbage by the end of the 45-day campaign period, USA Today reported on Thursday. . .

“Our goal is to extract as much waste as possible from Everest so as to restore glory to the mountain. Everest is not just the crown of the world, but our pride,” Dandu Raj Ghimire, Nepal’s tourism director, said according to The Hindu.

Nepal’s tourism department, local government and other mountaineering groups are working together for the campaign, which is the first of its kind, The Himalayan Times reported.

“Everything on Everest, other than rock and snow, will be brought back,” Tika Ram Gurung, secretary of the Nepal Mountaineering Association, said according to The Kathmandu Post. “The goal is to send the message that we should keep this mountain pollution free.” (Read more from “Mount Everest Is Covered in Garbage and Dead Bodies” HERE)
