Re: A Fair Assessment
The strata in some cases cover thousands of square miles of unbroken flatness, between others of similar flatness. The Tapeats covers most of North America, so does the Redwall Limestone. Reqally, this is not how the surface3 of the earth is built up.
​
It's how the bottom of the sea is built up, Faith. Those are both marine deposits. Hence their sedimentology and fossils.
​
And marine deposits do cover vast areas. Look at those huge continent-sized areas of marine sediment:
​
​
Now consider how much bigger still they could be if the sea level was higher and America was partly submerged, as it was.
​
You see how in real geology everything fits nicely together and no-one invokes magic?

Re: Another line of evidence
So at that rate for 17 million years, by now there should be a dead space of 10 miles (average) the whole length of the canyon where all the walls had eroded flat, been reduced to dust and rubble as it were. Why don't we see that?
​
What do you mean by "eroded flat"?
​
I recall you have peculiar difficulties in knowing what is and isn't flat.

Re: A knife-edge thick contact is NOT an inch thickEros
You are asking too much of me. Half a dozen people raising a bunch of issues, some of you writing very long posts, no. Not to mention that they are often accusatory and sometimes totally off the wall.
​
Perhaps you could confine yourself to the topic of the goddamn thread. Perhaps everyone could. What is your spam doing here?

Checking In ... Nope
All this time, Faith, and you still don't understand how dirt works.

So, a new discovery to remind us all that ...
