Yes that's one place the Navajo sandstone didn't form in the geologic column. There are many other places where it also didn't. But the picture I linked shows where it did and it has the same flat and straight form as all the strata.
You know by now that the Geological column is every single spot on the Earth. There is no geology that is not part of the Geological column.
The picture is a close up of the Navajo Sandstone. And it was NOT formed by a flood. And it is part of the Geological column. And it is part of the Navajo Sandstone.
And, like the reef, it is stuff that simply could not be created by, transported by, formed by, deposited by your utterly stupid flood.
We have the ref and we have the Navajo Sandstone and we have the models and we have the fossils and we have the paleontology and anthropology and civilizations and we win.
All you have are the fantasies of your cult.

Oh I've always thought The Wave had to be formed by the Flood, it's such a fluid-looking thing.
But unfortunately once again reality shows that the Wave was not made by your imaginary flood or any flood but is made by wind blow sand in dunes.
Faith writes:
But my argument is about the strata, period.
No Faith, that too is simply not true since the strata are made from real objects that show they were not created by any flood including your imaginary flood.
When we look closely we see hat you are just making shit up and misrepresenting reality.
Here is the Navajo Sandstone; hardly flat, certain not deposited by your fantasy flud.

There are classic examples of cross bedding and aeolian layers and all the things that are indicators and evidence of sand dunes. Your ignorance of the actual structure of sand dunes does not mean that other people must be as ignorant as you decide to remain.

Re: Another line of evidence
Faith writes:
I can't even imagine how you got the idea that the erosion merely reduced the height of the hoodoos since the big thing about them is how they are sculpted into their shapes by erosion. The two to four feet per hundred years has to refer to all the erosion that created the hoodoo shapes. And they will all eventually erode into shapeless lumps or piles of eroded material.
Very good Faith. You are right. Over time erosion and weathering tend to flatten the landscape.

Re: Another line of evidence
Faith writes:
I had your picture in mind when I said it had to be water-soaked. That does not look like a windblown sand dune.
So you claim, yet the geologists who actually know stuff say that is exactly how a sand dune looks. Your ignorance is not evidence.
Faith writes:
"Shapeless lumps or piles of eroded material" isn't flat.
So you say, yet the reality remains. Weathering and Erosion tend to flatten landscapes. Gravity and water and wind carry material from high spots and deposit the material in the low spots which levels out a landscape.
Once again Faith, we see those processes in action while you have nothing but the dogma of your cult.

Re: Another line of evidence
And that when first exposed there were NO hoodoos just a relatively flat plain. The hoodoos were created by the weathering and erosion of all of the millions of tons of material that was between them.

However, there is a statue of a flat-bed ford on a corner in Winslow, Arizona.
And there is a girl in the reflection of the truck in the window mural but no girl in the truck itself. It's really an amazing amazing art composition where you can spend hours and yet never see all of it.
BUT...
why is that important to this thread?
It's very important because while from a distance you see somethings it is only when you actually look at the details you notice the whole corner is not what it seems, the building is a wall, the bricks each have names and stories on them and also the discrepancies like the girl in the reflection that is not in the truck itself.
Just as in Faith's fantasy, when you look closely at reality the straight flat lines are not straight flat lines, nowhere is there evidence of some world wide flood during the time humans existed and there are wind blown dunes that were turned to stone.
Faith see the statue as reality and never sees the reality itself.

Re: The other line of evidence
PaulK writes:
Since the height loss only applies to areas undergoing net erosion and because the hoodoo rate is well above that to be expected in a relatively level environment for reasons already discussed it doesn’t seem you have much of a point even there.
And since the hoodoos started out at surface level and they did not grow instead the stuff that was around them eroded away it is all the shit that is not around them now that is what is important and would determine time spans.

Yes I find the evidence-based picking of nits to be tedious.
It is far more tedious to deal with the details that are reality than to simply repeat some fantasy dogma from your cult. Yes, that is certainly true. Yet EVERY detail examined over the last 200 years or so has show that there was never a global flood during the time humans existed, that the continents did not separate during the time humans existed and that the Earth and Universe are old.
We have the fossils, the geology, the paleontology, the anthropology, the models, the mechanism, the process and the procedures, the reefs and the sand dunes and the White Cliffs of Dover.
All you have are fantasies and stories written by ignorant humans.

Re: Here's why the debate is hopeless
The debate is hopeless because there has never been a world wide flood during the time humans existed, the continents divided long before humans existed, the Earth really is billions of years old and the universe even older and anyone claiming there was a world-wide flood or that the continents divided during the time humans existed or that the Earth is young is simply absurdly wrong.

And the fact remains...
The Coconino is NOT the product of any flood; it is wind blown sand.
quote:
The Coconino Sandstone is typically buff to white in color. It consists primarily of fine well sorted quartz grains, with minor amounts of potassium feldspar grains deposited by eolian processes (wind-deposited) approximately 260 million years ago. Several structural features such as ripple marks, sand dune deposits, rain patches, slump marks, and fossil tracks are not only well preserved within the formation, but also contribute evidence of its eolian origin.
We have the Coconino Sandstone so we win.

Tanypteryx writes:
Ok, the contact is tight, so what?
How does that "justify" the flood?
How does flood water deposit multiple layers, some with knife-edge thin contacts and some with thicker blurred contacts?
How does any flood deposit randomly alternating bands of completely different sediments?
If the flood was worldwide and the land was all one continent, as you have many times asserted, why aren't the sequence of layers the same everywhere?
How does a flood deposit fossils that are increasing different from modern organisms the more deeply they are buried?
How could any flood carry trillions of tons of sediment in suspension , enough to create miles deep rocks, on land, but not in the oceans?
More to the point, how does the silly Biblical flood transport intact cross bedded sand dunes along with animal tracks?

Re: A knife-edge thick contact is NOT an inch thick
Percy.
When one layer is deposited on another layer won't the contact between the two layers always be "knife edge" unless there is mixing? Is there even some known process where the contact between two layers could be anything other than a "knife edge"?
When we look at geological boundaries don't we always find the contact between two layers is "knife edge" unless there is evidence to show why it is not "knife edge" such as we see around intrusions?
Since the Coconino is not a flood deposit in the first place and in fact all the evidence shows it was wind blown sand with even surface living critter tracks preserved; what point could Faith possibly make regarding the Coconino?
If she wishes to claim the layer below is the result of the flood then is that not then evidence that the Coconino and all layers above the Coconino were post flood deposits and the canyon itself also a post flood creation?
Does Faith have any purpose other than obfuscation, wilful ignorance and deceit in any of the discussion relating to the boundary between the Coconino and all the layers below the Coconino?

Re: A knife-edge thick contact is NOT an inch thick
Faith writes:
The contact lines between many of the different layers have some small amount of erosion which makes them NOT "knife-edge" tight. This particular one is POINTED OUT FOR ITS TIGHTNESS, which certainly suggests it's at least unusual among the contact lines, otherwise there would be no point in singling it out. Percy's weird idea that a contact would be described as "knife-edge" which is really an inch thick is just beyond bizarre.
Erosion only happens top an exposed surface Faith so layers that show erosion were surfaces that were not buried when the erosion happened.
We have shown you examples of that repeatedly such as fossil river channels that were subsequently filled BUT, and a big BUT, even in those cases the contact layer between the different materials is still "knife edge".
This particular segment is pointed out by the Creationists for the exact same reason they constant misrepresent the bible; it is the dishonest practice of taking things out of context.
You are just continuing to try to con the rubes, palm the pea and misdirect attention from the fact that the Coconino was NOT and cannot have been deposited by any flood.
The area is singled out by the Creationists sites for the very same totally dishonest reason; to misdirect attention from the fact that there has never been a world-wide flood during the time humans existed.
