You may be interested in a new thread from Dr A and Pressie that will present a general overview of geology. It's still in the thread proposal stage (Introduction To Geology), but should get promoted soon.

Another one that might help is How to make Sand that starts at Message 1.

Hi Chuck77,
I'm not a geologist, and I am learning from this thread, so we are in the same boat there. Enjoy. by our ability to understand Rebel American Zen Deist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share. • • • Join the effort to solve medical problems, AIDS/HIV, Cancer and more with Team EvC!

Thought this was the best place for this:
From National Geographic quote: Dry sand dunes ... footprints ... too bad it doesn't say which sandstone layer the boulder came from.

By the given age (310 million years ago) I’d guess the very start of the Wescogame Formation. Footprints were discovered in that formation more than 100 years ago, but later in date.

Of course it's just an animal running from the Flood waters about 4500 years ago and eventually overtaken and buried in that particular layer which of course isn't a time period hundreds of millions of years old.
sn't. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

quote: Good luck coming up with a Flood geology scenario that explains how footprints can be found at many levels of the geological column. quote: Nobody thinks that a rock layer is a time period, Faith. That’s just something you made up. You would think that somebody who boasts of being honest and rational would avoid repeating crazy falsehoods. But here we are.

Funny, it's rock layers that are labeled as time periods in scads of illustrations of the geo column.
As for footprints on layers, some animals obviously escaped wave after wave of the Flood's incursion before finally getting caught. Big deal. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Upon googling that image that you presented, I found this.
Both sides have valid arguments in this one.

quote: That is the time period when the material was deposited. It isn’t saying that the rock IS the time period. You would have to be insane to think that. quote: The idea of multiple “waves” leaving areas of dry land all through the Flood seems a pretty big deal to me. How do you fit that with the supposedly accurate story in the Bible ?

Honestly? None of them. I don't believe that God would be so obtuse in His interaction with humanity. I believe that we will be judged by our response to what we have to work with. Stubborn beliefs without evidence are a dangerous form of thinking.
