Re: Those layers again
The problem most creationists, like myself have with carbon dating and such is that many believe there was a far different kind of pre=flood atmosphere as well as other factors that make it so nobody knows the chemistry of the elements in the atmosphere et al. This could effect older readings, for example in carbon dating with far less carbon in the atmosphere and in the soil than there is now.

Are there no Christian geologists among the tens of thousands of geologists?
In archaeology, it was Christian archaeologists who discovered evidence that contradicted many biblical claims, for example,the exodus, the conquest, flood, and Jonah's story, were all rejected by Christian archaeologists. I cannot think of a single archaeologist that takes the bible at face value.
That's because there are not mainline jobs out there for professional Christian idist geologists. The Christian idist geologists are for the most part not funded or salaried for this reason. They are people like Wyatt, Moler, some ICR folks and others who are not recognized by the secularist geology establishment. If you don't buy the mainline line geologically, your on your own. Most are likely part timers, like Wyatt was.

Re: No Christian geologists?
In your link of Glen Morton he says this:
One also finds erosional canyons buried in the earth. These canyons would require time to excavate, just like the time it takes to erode the Grand Canyon. This picture was downloaded from a site which is now gone from the web.
Glen obviously is closed minded to the arguments of ICR and others that there are more than one possibility as to how to interpret the Grand Canyon. To imply as he is here that this couldn't possibly come about by the flood shows that he's one sided and well educated into the secularist viewpoint and possibly unaware of the Biblical literalist interpretation of what is observed here.

Re: No Christian geologists?
That's a matter of your biased opinion, Jar. Most Christian geologists are secularists in respect to geology. As I said, most who get a professional job as a geologist either go at it secularistically or they don't get hired in the field of research in this aspect of geology. The others who do the idist geology work aren't on anyone's payroll or in the journals, et al.
