Sedimentary Means Water Deposited

The fact that there is no evidence that they were not laid down continuously is the evidence that they were not laid down discontinuously.

There is no evidence proving that Leprechauns don't exist, therefore they must exist.

Brilliant, IAC. Any other revelations for us?

We are dealing here with physical evidence, which is obviously too much for you to deal with, but that's ok.

See post #231 and many others by me for the great abundance of physical evidence disproving the Young Earth Theory whivh I have provided.

Also please see the two sites below for even more evidence:

http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/list.html - Refutes all of IAC's and other's young earth claims

http://www.answersincreation.org/biogneyman.htm - Same

Now IAC, if you would kindly show me your evidence, or at the very least try to disprove just one piece of evidence out of the many pieces of evidence I have provided which clearly reveals the YE Theory to be bogus without a doubt.

 

Vast sedimentary (water borne) layers atop each other conformably (no uncomformities), grading into each other, evidencing one event, you were saying?

 

LOL!!! That's it!!! That's all you have!!!

First off, your one-liner above actually proves the Old Earth Theory. The fact that there are distinct layers pancaked a top one another proves that weren't all formed at the same time. Otherwise, there would be MANY unconformities.

The Coconino and Navajo Sandstones were formed from a desert due to the 25 degree crossbedding patterns and the fact that your theory doesn't explain how it was created.

You were saying?

 

They were all deposited in water, otherwise, you'd have to sandwich a "desert deposit" sandstone, conformably, between layers of sedimentary rock, how do you do that Houdini?

 

The key to proving your claim of a global flood producing all the sedimentary deposits around the world is the rate of flooding and the source of the flooding.

It is clear that from your in-depth understanding of the biblical accounts that this flood occurred over a very short time span. That vast movements of water kms deep moved violently over the earth.

There are several examples that have been found in the geographic records of massive violent flooding events. It is interesting that these floods have left clear evidence of there passing. That sedimentary deposits of these floods are unique only to these types of events. The scared landscape uniquely point to the massive floods unlike anything modern man has witnessed.

Yet these events are but minuscule compared to what you claim has happened in the past. Your claim is that this happened within written history yet you are unable to point to anything that even remotely resembles the landscapes of ravaged land.

No giant dry falls, no 1000 foot ripples of stone.

 

LOL. First off all, desert deposit sandstone is Sedimentary Rock, genius.

Secondly, there is no "sandwiching" involved here. That is only in the private fantasy world of your mind.

As you can see in the picture, here's how the Coconino was formed:

1. Hermit Shale forms in marine enviroment with raised sea level.
2. Coconino forms ON TOP of Hermit Shale with raised average temp, lowered sea level, and desert enviroment.
3. Toroweap Formation forms, again, ON TOP of Coconino in a marine enviroment.

LOL. You ignorantly and amazingly assume for some odd reason that the Hermit Shale and Toroweap layers were made first, then the Coconino Sandstone (why you think this, only God knows).

So no "sandwiching" was involved, dummy.

Now, if you would kindly give me your theory as to how a desert deposit layer magically appears between two marine layers (this should be good).

 

So how did a "desert" slip in between ocean deposition?

 

Remember, we're talking millions of years here Ice. Climates change. You should know that better than everyone.
For example when the continents were all together (Pangea) the center of the land mass was so far from water that it was a desert.

Again, kindly provide the young earth theory as to how you can move 11,931 cubic miles of sand an average distance of 223.5 miles (assuming the sand started at the northern boundary of the current formation, and if the bed is 447 miles wide, the average would be half that) with a water current of only 5.5 feet per second?

 

Global scouring and redeposition, elementary.

 

Translation - The Young Earth Theory relies on magic.

IAC, where did all that sand some from, and how was it transported?
Where did the water from the magma recede to? Did it magically turn back into magma and go back into the earth?

 

Clearly its his claim that he has a degree in Earth Sciences that is more in question than any of his other nonsense claims.

 

Dartmouth College baby.

 

So basically, IAC has no response to the abundance of challenges and evidence made above which clearly show how in err the YE Theory is.

Until he provides for us a post more than one sentence long with facts in it, this debate cannot continue.

 

Ok.

 

Ok.

 

Ok.

 

Nuff said.
