Quote (Stanton @ Oct. 08 2009,20:58) | Among other things, it was pointed out that there were three reefs, composed of very different organisms, stacked within the stratum of the Grand Canyon, with no species from one reef found within any of the others, nor fossils of any modern day reef-dwelling organism found within any of them. How is your explanation supposed to imply that there was one reef buried?
Furthermore, even if there was one reef, how does your explain demonstrate that the whole structure was formed, and then eroded within the same flood that lasted 40 days and 40 nights? I mean, you do realize that the limestone, shale, gneiss and granites of the Grand Canyon are profoundly different than the loosely consolidated ash of Mt St Helens, right?
As for the crinoids: when they're found intact, that means they were buried quickly, because of a storm, not a flood. A catastrophic flood would suggest a great deal of violent turbation, something that would not lend to preserving intact crinoids. Also, you fail to explain how a catastrophic flood would not only bury a reef with great violence, yet, be also able to preserve footprints, as well.
As for your whining about cancerous hate, well, it seems very odd that you would whine about being so busy with your real life, yet, find plenty of time to piss and moan about us being assholes, even though you, yourself, have demonstrated that you're an even bigger Asshole for Jesus. |
Where did you read that I said there was only one reef buried? I didn't say that.
If there was a deluge, Stanton, we have absolutely nothing to compare it with. So the physics of it would only be on paper--and that might not be right.
You seem like a decent guy Stanton, but I have comments and questions that I would never speak or ask here, because of the poisonous atmosphere.

Since you want to bring up the deluge Stanton, there was tectonic, and volcanic activity involved with the water "the fountains of the deep were broken up." Therefore there could have been all kinds of different geologic events. Landslides, mudslides, outburst floods, rock movement, and possibly tsunamis, depending on the extent of tectonic activity.

It wouldn't have mattered what approach I took. You would have found fault. The real issue is that we have two different philosophical positions which are results from our theology or lack thereof. People who have no interest in God usually take issue with people who do take interest.
And the only people I remember mentioning Jesus is you and Lou. I wasn't saying anything, because if I did I would have been quickly reminded that this was a science forum.
Still no purity hypotheses--well I think it has to do with drainage--but there's no way to prove it.
Tell deadman that no one broke me. I'm not gonna waste my time with a bunch of name calling complainers who have thoroughly analyzed me, but at the same time can't see how rancid and odorous their own behavior is.
