The closer in the past an event occurred the more likely one is to determine when it happened, if no one was actually there to observe the event. 😏

Geo-Blunder: No "Millions of Years"!

You don't have to be a geologist to realise that some rock formations are the results of a very slow build-up process. Take limestone with grains of igneous rocks in them. Limestone only forms through a sedimentary process, and turns to marble when exposed to a certain amount of heat and pressure, and yet we find very thick layers of limestone with grains of igneous rocks in them, even in deeper strata. It stands to reason then that the deeper rocks (and fossils) formed a very, very long time ago, and is therefore much, much older than 6000 years.

It's not "merely" speculation. It's the only logical conclusion. Any other conclusion is clearly driven by belief in a trickster god, supported only by bits and pieces of logical hogwash and willful ignorance.

It has already been proven that it does not take even a thousand years for rocks to form. 😏

That's igneous rock. Now, look up sedimentary rock. Then explain to me how we find igneous rock inside limestone, and how such a combination can form fast. Igneous rock requires a lot of heat and pressure to form, while limestone can only form slowly, without much heat and pressure involved. When you realise that such rock could only form incredibly slowly, ask yourself how long it must have taken to form layers of limestone with other forms of rocklayers in between. Once it dawns on you how incredibly old the earth must be, you can just thank me for opening your eyes to the truth. You're welcome. 😏

I thought you already knew we explain that mainly by the world wide flood of Noah's day. 😏

Soooo, volcano create igneous rock, flood create sedimentary rock (which hardens really quickly), then volcano create more igneous rock (that doesn't destroy the sedimentary rock beneath, because it's already rock, and it doesn't turn into marble), aaand... it keeps doing that for about a year? And this explains layers upon layers of different strata? Look, limestone don't form in thick layers, and harden (!) in less than a year, and it doesn't stay all limestone with thick layers of hot lava on top! That's ludicrous!







Right, I forgot who I was talking to. Never mind.

The theory of evolution is what seems ludicrous to me. It is EVIL-lution.

Nice deflection, totally ignoring his post. But that is your MO. If you can't find a video refuting it, you ignore it, since you have nothing to say from your own mind on the subject. No, I have to admit, you came up with what had to be from your own mind when I put forth my objections to the young Earth, using the moon as the example, you said: "Water cooled the moon". Just out of curiosity, have you ever seen any examples of water flow left over on the moon in any of the telescope views or the Apollo pictures taken on the surface? It should look like Mars which had water flow millions of years ago, oh, forgot, a few hundred years ago.

No, but I don't pay much attention to pictures of the Moon or Mars.. Do you really believe there was water flow on Mars?

When you bring up your thoughts on evolution in response to having your young earth delusion challenged from geology? No it appears you didn't realise they're different things.

Now, kindly explain how limestone can form together with igneous rock, in several layers, in less than 6000 years. The flood explanation clearly won't do, since the two types of rock can only form under completely opposite conditions. What's that? Your god is a trickster god? I guess so.

Look at the following video and imagine a worldwide flood that killed many plants and animals and they get buried and compressed to form fossils, coal, and limestone during and after the year long flood waters receding and the mountains raising and the valleys sinking as the Holy Bible says.

What is the Limestone cycle?



Here is another video, not about limestone but one you might be interested in for the science associated with the Holy Bible.

The limestone cycle is not an explanation for the problem I raised, and incidently, the narrator explains how limestone takes millions of years to form in sediments. Doh.

The millions of years bit is part of her evolution training. However, she is accurate about the rest of it. That is why I asked you to imagine the worldwide flood instead of the millions of years, because we know coal was once thought to take millions of years to form too. We now know that is not true.

Maybe the following video will be better to help you understand the forming of limestone.
