Let's just say I know the exact procedure to get exactly what I need to have, and in most cases, the instant I ask. Poof. And it's no secret. Job covers the procedure.
Ok. I'll tell it.
If you pray long enough, and hard enough, God will tell you when to stop and just LET it go. In that next instant, He will POOF what you need in front of you. You will have no doubt it was an answer.
To the observer, they see nothing, because they don't know that your thought process was at work. But when that moment of asking and recieving comes, it's as clear as a bell.
If you are that privileged, please ask God to abolish malaria.
Poof!
Or perhaps the only reason that all your prayers so far have been answered is that you're so selfish that you've only ever asked God to help you achieve your own short-term goals.

Because your opinion is in opposition to what we see.
For example: If you take a garden hose and lay it on the ground with a trickle of water.....the flow will snake back and forth wider and wider and wider.
No matter how long, it will not create a great crack like the grand canyon.
With layers and layer and layers, laid over long times, the toplayers will be soft and the bottom, well hard as rock.
But the grand canyon? All layers of hard rock cut steep and deep.....as if all the layers were of the same hardness.
And with that last clause, you jump into magical nutty thinking. Why should it require that all the layers were of the same hardness? Oh, right, obviously it doesn't. Duh.
All it requires is that water should be able to erode rocks no matter how hard they are, which it can.
Duh.

I've taken pictures on the south canyon jeep tour, but didn't see any threads to read. I compare the structures to white water trips I've been on and to Mt. St. Hellens. And what the Creation Kooks say is true. There is an almost exact replica of the Grand Canyon. The same structures, angles, the same little trickle in the bottom. Only created in weeks.
Like Vacate, I should like to see a scrap of a shred of a scintilla of evidence for this monstrous lie.
But it will not be forthcoming.
Incidentally, did you just describe the Colorado River as a "little trickle"?
Creationists are funny.
