The Facts Have Been Changed (To Protect The Religious)

 Live Science reports:

Manganese nodules have been found in every ocean, but are most common in the Pacific Ocean. The metal lumps, which most often look like pancakes, are formed of layer upon layer of metal ore that slowly crystallizes around a core. The core may be a fossil, a rock or fragment of another nodule.

"These were very, very circular, which is strange," Devey said. "They usually look like cow flops."

Scientists think the nodules grow very slowly, padding themselves by less than an inch (1 centimeter) in a million years. The largest nodules found by the R/V Sonne scientists could be as old as 10 million years, Devey said. Because the spheres are so old, they could provide a record of past climate change, he added.

Charisma News reported the same story like this: 

Scientists Find Evidence of Genesis Flood and Noah's Ark 
"These metallic pellets provide strong evidence that most seafloor sediments were deposited rapidly, not slowly and gradually over millions of years. Are these nodules evidence of the Genesis Flood?" writes creation scientist Jake Hebert.
...
Evolutionary scientists are perplexed.
...
it's evidence of the Genesis Flood and Noah's ark.

I don't know why they even bothered to refer to the original article. They contradicted everything it said !

Actually I DO know why:

Charisma News knows that its readers will never bother to check out original sources for fear of disillusionment.

Charisma News also knows its audience well enough to realize that a reference to the scientific discipline of volcanology won't get emotions running high enough, so the experts in the field suddenly become "evolutionary scientists" !

(And what the hell does Charisma News think that evolution has to do with "metal lumps" ?)
