I do not see it as a question of raising or lowering of the land masses or sea level. I see it more having to do with equalization between two different types of materials being compressed by the same force of gravity. Can sea level rise higher because of it? I doubt it. Besides, coast lines are continually in a state of change due to the actions of the water. Will the perceived "Sea Level" drop lower? Maybe if the earth doubled again in size, making even deeper Ocean beds for it to pool in.

I would imagine water from another heavenly body arriving here may or may not be a natural occurrence. I would suspect that if frozen ice from, where ever, were to enter our atmosphere, it would melt quickly, vaporize, and appear to be nothing more than rain. But that all depends on how much entered at one time and over what period of time.

I have pondered this myself..
aside from the tiamat chunks of frozen ice raining down for 40 nights..
what if, as the atmosphere collected, water was formed through clouds...
as the earth expanded in a natural sequence..
after all, as the ocean data shows, in reversed spreading
resulting in a smaller earth, what we refer to as dinosaurs were still
walking on solid ground..edit on 20-2-2013 by reeferman because: sticky wwww key
Geo as in geod, as in earth. engineering as in creating change and effect. Adding vast amounts of water to a space geo would effect change in the atmosphere, weather. Again, in ancient times. your right, has nothing to do with chem trails but everything to do with the earths climate.

Not really chemtrails or geoengineering at all - why is it in this forum??

Fact, all previous life forms were found in the Continents, not in the Ocean beds.
Fact, In total there is approx 310 million cu miles of water on our planet.
Fact, the Ocean beds are the Youngest at the central Ocean rifts and get older the closer to land you get.
One of the things that is not considered in the Expanding Earth Theory is the volume of water on Earth. If the Earth started off with only shallow seas,
where did all the water presently found on our planets Oceans, come from?
If you reverse the Expanding Earth all the Ocean beds would "close Up", and leave no place for the water to go, except to flood the continents with 310 million cubic miles of water, on a planet half the size of what we see today..

I assume you are interested in this theory, otherwise, there is no reason for you to post, and add positive materials to the discussion. And thank you for your input.

Obviously your not taking into consideration what is presented in the theory. Maybe you should take some time and study it before you come here and try to reinforce a theory ( Plate Tectonics ) that is doomed to the scrap heap, in my opinion.

You would think by now if subduction was actually taking place we would have photos and video of the subduction zones. That's not the only reason though. Where do you suggest these zones reside?

No, I believe a Expanding earth theory is closer to the truth than the present day Plate Tectonic theory is.

I went to your link, and you know what I saw? A very colorful, picture......... You do have a sense of humor. But at this point I must ask you, because you really haven't addressed my OP, are you a covert member of this organization? theflatearthsociety.org...
the pictures are jsut that - pictures - the "proof" is in the studies and science that maps the zones.
