Sediment is residue which settles at the bottom of a body of water, often in layers, either by turbidity current deposition or sorting by grain size and density, so as perhaps 80% of the rock volume of the strata on the continents is composed of lithified sediments (the other 20% igneous and metamorphic), it seems that the Deluge Model corroborates the geologic record.

And remember, rivers take sediments off the continents, not onto them.

IAC, sediment rock cannot be formed in 40 days.

You ever see the sedimentation bands run vertical?

Who said 40 days besides you?

The Bible and you

Yes, due to folding we see vertical sedimentary bands.

Not me nor the Bible, you're wrong still again.

How so? You claim there is sedimentary evidence for the deluge, yet there isn't.

The geologic record indicates the Deluge, what do you think it indicates?

What caused the folding?

Horizontal compression.

See that picture? That is the Grand Canyon. It was formed by millions of years of erosion from the colorado river which is in the picture.

40 days of flooding, and then a sudden "wind" which dried up all the water wouldn't be enough to form even one inch of a sediment layer. The flood waters would have had to have been there millions of years.

What causes that?

Collision of crustal plates.

How long does that take?

The Grand Canyon eroded when two huge lakes above that portion of the Colorado River broke through a barrier, by faulting or erosion, and poured through, gouging out the canyon, which is over 50X too wide for its current flow.

To result in no radial tension cracks in the now folded sedimentary layers requires that the sedimentary layers had yet to lithify.

Exactly.

Much much longer than 10,000 years. Plates move about 2 cm per year. in 10,000 years, there would have been only 700 feet of collision, not nearly enough to produce layers of folding.

About as long as cement takes to set up.
