Genesis 1 was not written solely for people with knowledge of modern astronomy or cosmology. Genesis 1 was written by and originally for people with an ancient Middle Eastern geocentric cosmology. Genesis, like all the Bible, was written for all people in all times in all cultures with all degrees of knowledge about everything. In relation to the cultures of its day it was written mostly as an answer to the idolatrous religions of all the different peoples, which it answers with a flat declaration of the one true God as Creator of everything. Cosmology is a very very small part of its concern.
Genesis 1 is strongly consistent with ancient Middle Eastern cosmology. Genesis 1 has very little interest in cosmology at all.
It begins with the Primordial Ocean. It lacks any concept of the Earth as a planet, seeing it as a few areas of dry land, set in the Ocean. It lacks even the idea that the moon only reflects light from the sun. None of this is about cosmology, or any particular culture's point of view, it's about how God created everything.
If Genesis 1 is intended to communicate accurate information about the physical universe or even how it was created it does rather a poor job of it. I'll let the Creator know your objections to His work. But again cosmology is not of any importance in Genesis 1.
Why, then, should anyone assume that Genesis 1 was intended by God to convey information about the physical universe at all ? Because it's God's Word and whatever it says about the physical universe is true. But I don't think it has ANY aim at providing a scientific description of anything whatever.

NoNukes writes: The few geocentrists you find around today are Protestants and Catholics who consider themselves to be Bible fundamentalists. Yeh, so? Yeah, so it supports my argument that geocentricism is not just Catholicism or Romanism or whatever you want to call it. People can and do reach that conclusion by reading the Bible, and it is highly likely that the Biblical writers also had the same view of the universe. Modern geoncentrists get to that conclusion despite the fact that they don't have Ptolemy's influence to blame and despite having all of modern science to draw on. They reach those conclusions because the universe 'looks' geocentric unless you look at it hard and because the Bible says the universe is geocentric. And by hard, I mean employing the science that was available at least by the 17th century. And some visual evidence (namely as the phases and sizes of Venus which cannot be explained using a geocentric model), has been visible to mankind for his entire history.

From here:
Faith writes: Edge writes: Well, it doesn't have to, I suppose, but it probably did. First of all, the development of a schist (with a platy foliation) is dynamothermal, meaning that there was deformation along with heating. If the intrusion caused the schist development, then there should be some geometric relationship of the intrusion to the orientation of the foliation. That does not appear to be the case. As to the burial origin of the foliation, if that is due to the Paleozoic section being deposited, then the foliation should be closer to vertical. In fact, IIRC, there are some folds in the schist, which would suggest some kind of lateral compression. I wonder if you would be so kind as to translate these paragraphs into simple English for us mentally challenged YECs? I would really like to have some idea what you are talking about. First of all, I think Edge had an error. I think a sentence above should have been "As to the burial origin of the foliation, if that is due to the Paleozoic section being deposited, then the foliation should be closer to horizontal". The greatest pressure is perpendicular to the foliation. The metamorphism of the schist require heat and high pressure. The non-metamorphism of the overlying sediments requires the lack of heat and high pressure. The sediments were not there when the schist metamorphism happened. Vishnu Basement Rocks - Wikipedia:
CORRECTION - The above link was to the wrong location in the article. Below is the correct location. Vishnu Basement Rocks - Wikipedia:
quote: And that unconformity is a nonconformity - It is sediments on top of basement metamorphics and intrusives. Now the above quoted is a bit muddled. But, pressure means deep burial. Per my interpretation of the above quoted, what became the Vishnu Schist was once buried under approximately 25 kilometers of other material (The summit of Mt. Everest is about 9 kilometers above sea level). Perhaps that interpretation is wrong. But if so, that means that 25 kilometers of material was eroded off before the deposition of any of the currently overlying sediments. Before I researched this a bit, my WAG (wild-ass-guess) was that at least 10 kilometers of burial was required for the metamorphism to happen. That's still an Everest height of sediment that had to have been eroded off, before the depostion of the Unkar Group. And that takes time, and that's before any of the sediments were deposited, which requires more time. Not going to happen in 6-10,000 years. Moose Edited by Minnemooseus, : Fix quote box.

Heh, heh... rough day to day. Yes, I was thinking that the forces would have been vertical. If I can edit that, I shall.
The metamorphism of the schist require heat and high pressure. The non-metamorphism of the overlying sediments requires the lack of heat and high pressure. The sediments were not there when the schist metamorphism happened.
Exactly. And they are close enough in space that there should be some effect on the Paleozoic section.
And that unconformity is a nonconformity - It is sediments on top of basement metamorphics and intrusives.
Also true. However, I think that nonconformities are a subset of unconformities.

The metamorphism of the schist require heat and high pressure. The non-metamorphism of the overlying sediments requires the lack of heat and high pressure. The sediments were not there when the schist metamorphism happened. In my scenario they were and there is no reason to suppose the intense heat reached to that level, especially if the entire region was soaked in Flood water as I hypothesize that it was. The blocks of tilted Supergroup also weren't metamorphosed, I assume for the same reason, but I still think the Vishnu contains the rubble from the Supergroup that is no longer in evidence AS Supergroup. Oddly, one of the layers of the Supergroup is metamorphosed, the Shinumo quartzite. Enough heat and pressure for that without affecting the others? I don't know but that's the lines I'm thinking along. Vishnu Basement Rocks - Wikipedia:
The upper contact of the Vishnu Basement Rocks is a major unconformity between it and either the Tonto Group or Unkar Group that resulted from uplift and the deep erosion, by at least 25 kilometres (16 mi), of the Vishnu Basement Rocks and any overlying strata. Am I reading this right? Is this talking about erosion caused by the abrasion between lower and upper rocks?
And that unconformity is a nonconformity - It is sediments on top of basement metamorphics and intrusives. So, on top of the basement metamorphics and intrusives the contact with the sedimentary strata is a nonconformity, but on top of the tilted Supergroup it's an angular unconformity? Is that the idea?
But, pressure means deep burial. Per my interpretation of the above quoted, what became the Vishnu Schist was once buried under approximately 25 kilometers of other material (The summit of Mt. Everest is about 9 kilometers above sea level). Perhaps that interpretation is wrong. But if so, that means that 25 kilometers of material was eroded off before the deposition of any of the currently overlying sediments. How would that compare with my Young Earth interpretation of three miles (about 5 km?) of sedimentary layers burying the Vishnu as it formed into schist. On this scenario only the upper two miles of that strata were then eroded away as the canyon was cut and the Grand Staircase as well. Three miles of sedimentary weight not enough "deep burial" to form schist?
Before I researched this a bit, my WAG (wild-ass-guess) was that at least 10 kilometers of burial was required for the metamorphism to happen. That's still an Everest height of sediment that had to have been eroded off, before the depostion of the Unkar Group. And that takes time, and that's before any of the sediments were deposited, which requires more time. Not going to happen in 6-10,000 years. Unless it's all soaking in a handy-dandy worldwide Flood that then recedes, washing away a two-mile depth of those upper strata as described above. That shouldn't take more than a few months, with then some years after that to lithify the strata into rock etc. Meanwhile the Vishnu should have become schist under all that pressure plus the heat from the magma beneath, IMHO.

The quotes are piling up, but it seems necessary.

The sediments would have shown some signs of pressure and heat effects. The schists etc. structures and compositions (see Vishnu Basement Rocks - Wikipedia) are not compatible with a Supergroup protolith (pre-metamorphism form). Re: Shinumo Quartzite - Unfortunately, that name does not require metamophism. It means that the quartz sandstone is so well silica cemented that the rock can break through the sand grains, rather than just between the grains. Besides, you're not going to get metamorphism there, without also getting metaphophism in the neighboring sediments.

Am I reading this right? Is this talking about erosion caused by the abrasion between lower and upper rocks? Erosion is the removal of material. If the lower rock/upper rock contact had undergone intense fault activity, I think you would have ended up with as substantial zone of mylonite. Or at least some evidence of fault activity, which there is none.

As Edge said in the previous message, a nonconformity is a variety of unconformity. But it is a variety that implies a lot of erosion having happened. The other unconformity is an angular unconformity.

Not even if the lower rocks were dry, and the upper rocks were water saturated.

Not to worry, it will all fit together eventually.
Just this for now:
The schists etc. structures and compositions (see Vishnu Basement Rocks - Wikipedia) are not compatible with a Supergroup protolith (pre-metamorphism form). So some say. I'll have to look it up again but one source who studied the Vishnu says it is made up of a huge range of different rocks. I ran across this earlier and mentioned it in one of these recent threads, guess I'll have to find it.

Besides, you're not going to get metamorphism there, without also getting metaphophism in the neighboring sediments. Not at all unfortunate. It would solve the puzzle if you were right but everything I've found calls it a metamorphic rock requiring heat and pressure, such as this Google page: Quartzite (from German: Quarzit) is a hard, non-foliated metamorphic rock which was originally pure quartz sandstone. Sandstone is converted into quartzite through heating and pressure usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts Its presence between nonmetamorphic rocks needs another explanation apparently.

everything I've found calls it a metamorphic rock requiring heat and pressure Shinumo Quartzite quote: Have you given any more thought as to how the Shinumo Quartzite could protrude through the Tapeats and be overlain with Bright Angel Shale?
Shinumo Quartzite quote: Below is a photo of Cheops Pyramid marked up with the different strata present.
At first I wondered about the brown band at the top of the Shinumo Quartzite thinking it looked much like Tapeats Sandstone. However, the upper unit of the Shinumo is characterized as:
quote: And it has weathered almost identically as the formation below. The Tapeats would be much softer than the Shinumo and I would expect it to weather noticeably different. ABE: (I could be wrong about the Tapeats in this photo. It may actually be Isis Temple in the background where the Tapeats is missing - a little confirmation from someone else would help) Structures like this are really difficult to find adequate pictures to illustrate the phenomenon. As you can see, they are massive! We often need to rely on descriptions from people who have studied these up close. Edwin MacKee published "Cambrian History of the Grand Canyon Region" in 1945. Mac Kee has done extensive work studying the GC long before the internet. His books are difficult to come by, you have to go to a library in the dust, old books section. However, this book is available on Google Books as a free e-book. quote: Regarding the "Weathering of Ep-Algonkian Surface" (Ep-Algonkian surface is the name used for the surface that would become the Great Unconformity) MacKee summarizes the work of Robert Sharp (1940)
quote: Each of these points is strong indication that the Great Unconformity was once exposed to the surface prior to Paleozoic sediment deposition. If you have questions as to why they are problematic for continuous sedimentation, please ask and we can discuss further. Anyway, you are not likely to find a lot of details on these features on the web except as what you might call the "Old Earth Party Line." Edwin Mac Kee spent his whole career studying the Grand Canyon, analyzing it and writing about it. Details about WHY he came to his conclusions could be found in his books. Those that have studied the region close up and in detail have determined that the Great Unconformity is an erosional surface and not a slip fault (which is more like what it would be if the basement rocks rotated underneath the Paleozoic formations).

So, on top of the basement metamorphics and intrusives the contact with the sedimentary strata is a nonconformity, but on top of the tilted Supergroup it's an angular unconformity? Is that the idea? 4 types of unconformities.
Keep in mind that the unconformity itself is the solid black line that represents a period where there was not continuous deposition. Also note, that it is interpreted to mean "missing time" but what it actually represents is a time when deposition was not continuous - in other words, deposition paused, with or with out subsequent erosion. (however, erosion is pretty much inevitable at the surface and the presence of an erosional surface would be an indication that an unconformity exists). So there is actually no "missing time" but simple no deposition. Does that help clear things up? Also note that there is nothing in that definition that defines long periods of time. Deposition could have paused for 1 minute between flood waves or 1 million years during an uplift. To determine time frames we would need to look at processes. But I suggest that we just focus on determining IF the Great Unconformity is really an unconformity or is it something else. HBDWhoever calls me ignorant shares my own opinion.

Yes, some of which are not found in the Supergroup.

If that's what it says, it doesn't help you.
Not at all unfortunate. It would solve the puzzle if you were right but everything I've found calls it a metamorphic rock requiring heat and pressure, such as this Google page:
The term 'quartzite' is often used loosely, but if you want to be precise, many quartzites are actually 'quartz arenite', and meteamorphic quartzite are termed 'orthoquartzite'.
The term 'quartz arenite' is derived from the main component (quartz) and arenite, a Latin term for a rock with sand-sized grains. In some literature, these can be called orthoquartzites, a confusing term which usually refers to the metamorphic rock quartzite, though most metamorphic quartzites are diagentically fused from quartz arenites. The term "quartzose sandstone" can also be used for a quartz arenite.(Quartz arenite - Wikipedia)
This is how I was taught many years ago and it's only coming back to me now as I look up these terms.

This is an excellent post. Thank you for tracking all of this down.
I especially enjoyed this part:
Regarding the "Weathering of Ep-Algonkian Surface" (Ep-Algonkian surface is the name used for the surface that would become the Great Unconformity) MacKee summarizes the work of Robert Sharp (1940)
Earlier, I have suggested that some of the material just above the unconformity consists of materials derived directly from the underlying rock. While I was reluctant to be too specific in drawing conclusions from a picture, these observations by Sharp give me a lot more confidence in my earlier musings. Nothing like actual field work to generate conclusive data. We could spend all week arguing about a photo (maybe we have...), but these observations put everything into perspective.
quote:The principal points are as follows: 1. Weathering of the Archean rocks has extended downward 10 to 12 feet in many places and as far as 50 feet below the surface in some places. 2. Weathering of Algonkian rocks has been slight, presumably because they are composed of minerals that have already survived at least one cycle of weathering. 3. Mineralogical changes in the weathered zone of the Archean rocks involve elimination of feldspars, biotite, and other iron-bearing minerals, and a notable development of iron oxides. Another result of weathering is a large increase in the percentage of insoluble residues. 4. Residual enrichment causing an increase in iron oxide is progressive upward toward the erosion surface. 5. Locally a regolith which consists of a foot or two of structureless, extensively weathered detritus grades upward into basal Cambrian sediments and downward into less weathered Archean rock. 6. Boulders of decomposition consisting of cores of relatively unaltered rock, residual after weathering along fractures and joints, are locally present beneath the true regolith. 7. The weathered material of the regolith probably should be classed as intrazonal or azonal soil, but some of the most maturely weathered detritus may be normal soil. A considerable but unknown amount of it probably was removed by waves as the Cambrian sea advanced. 8. At two localities, features interpreted as being due to surficial creep have been noted in the weathered zone at the base of Pre-Cambrian monadnocks. - pg. 121 Each of these points is strong indication that the Great Unconformity was once exposed to the surface prior to Paleozoic sediment deposition.
This is an inescapable conclusion. Normally, it would be 'end of discussion' but I have a feeling that a certain poster is preparing a bulwark of denial.

One could say 'missing rock' that represents the passage of time. And this also bears repeating:
Also note that there is nothing in that definition that defines long periods of time. Deposition could have paused for 1 minute between flood waves or 1 million years during an uplift.
In other words, the Great Unconformity does not necessarily represent a billion years of erosion, only a billion years of missing record. This is one of the subtleties of unconformities that people often overlook.
To determine time frames we would need to look at processes. But I suggest that we just focus on determining IF the Great Unconformity is really an unconformity or is it something else.
Yes, we should focus the discussion, at least for the time being.

This is one of the subtleties of unconformities that people often overlook. Would it not be more accurate to say that "the Great Unconformity represents at least a billion years of missing record?" We can say that the time period would be at least as long as shown by the remaining layers of the Super Group but what is left of the Super Group is very likely not all that was there.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Exactly.

Yes, the Supergroup could be considered part of the missing record. Then, of course, we are presented with two unconformities... I think saw that called a 'biconformity' or something like that.
