Author | Topic: Evidence that the Great Unconformity did not Form Before the Strata above it | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The separation or overhang as JonF says it really is, without offering evidence or reasoning, I thought it was so obvious that none was necessary. But since it's you... you wrote:
showing that the layers are separated from each other, not laid neatly one on top of the other as you see in fresh deposition Separation is defined as:
quote: "Separation" would mean gaps or something inserted between the layers (and the latter would be a layer in itself). I.e. layers floating in the air above each other. The layers are laid on top of each other, touching with no gaps. At the edge of the cut some layers were affected differently than others and formed overhangs. Neat or not, they are laid on top of each other, not separated. Let's see your evidence and reasoning that they are "separated". I need a good laugh.

I placed blue lines Er... They seem to have a tinge of yellow. Maybe it's just me.

His book is well worth a read. I did find one 14C erratum, which he acknowledged and may be fixed by now.

What's wrong with our scenario?
Yours is far too vague. Details. When and how did the original rocks formed, when and how did they get eroded, When and how did did the get buried deep enough to form metamorphic rock, when and how did they get exposed to the surface, when and how did they get eroded again, when and how did they get buried deep enough to form metamorphic rock, again,and when and how did they get exposed again. We have detailed and physically possible answers to all those questions, and as a bonus those answers fit with everything else we know. You just blow smoke.

Right. You don't interpret, you are infallible.

You actually wrote that? On purpose?
I'm speechless.

It just underscores your incredible ignorance of relevant processes. Large temperature changes, or addition or removal of material can change volume. Extreme pressure (which is applied "hydrostatically" or from all directions simultaneously can reduce volume in some cases. Stretching... not so much.

None of Steno's principles are absolute. For superposition, see the Lewis Overthrust.

They certainly make it clear that there are small overhangs between layers and no deep caves or floating layers.

I hope someone who DOES have a good intuitive sense of reality comes along and sets you straight
Ah, you finally admit you do not have a good sense of reality. Nice to see you admit it at last. Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

It's preferable to unsupported claims from ignorant and incompetent people.
Not that I have any particular person in mind.

You have pretty much destroyed what was going to be a fun time with my family. I propose that YOU do the experiment and I'll do something else with my family.
Exactly whom do you think will be hurt by your choice to not perform the experiment? She is grasping at any straw to avoid doing the experiment and facing even the tiniest bit of reality.

I may have put it differently at different times but most of the time I said what I mean: sand won't deposit EVENLY on a slope to form a layer like the strata we know and love
Whatever you may have meant, you said many times that strata can only deposit horizontally. Post that picture again and we'll re-evaluate it. Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

Yeah, not being allowed to repeat claims that you have personally debunked is just like Stalin.
