I was just informed the other day that and I quote:
"There is also evidence for bent strata of rock, which if there was some warping in the strata that had been there for lots of years, there would be cracked, not bent strata. This itself is evidence that the warping took place very quickly before the rocks would have had the chance to solidify. This evidence is in complete agreement with the idea of a global flood. "
Does anyone have anything to say against this?? I'm not too informed on strata...
Actually, this is exactly wrong. The faster the deformation (strain rate) the more likely that brittle failure and fractures will occur. There are thousands of tests to this effect, including the old silly putty experiment.
I hope you put no credence in your source.
