Chuck, your references are just so unbelievably idiotic. Your first reference

Flood transported quartziteseast of the Rocky Mountains by Michael Oard, John Hergenrather and Peter Klevberg
Well-rounded gravel, cobbles and boulders of quartzite have been transported over 1,000 km to the east of their Rocky Mountain source areas. They are found at the tops of mountains, ridges and plateaus, as well as at the bottom of valleys, and are found in deposits ranging in thickness from a thin veneer, or lag, to 5,000 m. Percussion and pressure solution marks are commonly found on the clasts. All of these evidences point to catastrophic, powerful erosion and transport on a subcontinental scale, suggesting that these deposits formed during the Flood.
Well-rounded gravel, cobbles and boulders of quartzite with percussion and pressure solution marks are very often found in glacial deposits as well as river systems, etc. No catastrophe necessary. No flood necessary. It even forms today right in front of our own eyes. Coupled with the fact that those conglomerates are part of the mountains, not on the mountains, it certainly points away from a flood.
This was so ridiculous that I went to have a look at the authors.
Oard is a Meteorologist. While he was studying weather patterns, geologists actually studied rocks. Oard wouldn’t have a clue about geology.
Hergenrather is a Geographer. While he was studying towns, geologists were actually studying rocks. Hergenrather wouldn’t have a clue about geology.
Klevberg is a Civil Engineer. While he was studying how to build supermarkets, geologists were actually studying rocks. Klevberg wouldn’t have a clue about geology.
I mean, how wrong can you actually be about a subject and then some people still think you know it all? The only way for them is to be taken seriously bycreationists who don't know what science is.
