"Other features such as eolian sandstones, paleosols and pure evaporates are completely impossible in your whirling swirling surging flood model"
Where i live on of the major local rocks are desert sandstones with many of the typical features of deposition in this environment rather like this: http://www.brookes.ac.uk/geology/8361/2000/mark/environmental1.html Someone should have told the rocks there was a global flood because they show absolutely no evidence of it.
This is not the only rock that cannot have been formed in a flood flood basalts, which are very thick layers of basalt covering a huge area in many parts of the world, if they had all happened at the same time, or within a year would have released so much poisone gas all the sea water would have turned to PH 3.7 killing all the fish and almost everything else.
see:
http://www.glenn.morton.btinternet.co.uk/letter.htm .
"We just have no problem with lots of layers forming quickly - I have seen these form in seconds on video I have in my hands documenting the experiments of a French hydro-geologist." - Tranquility Base
yeah but there is clear evidence of layers forming every year for example:
D. A. Hodell, M. Brenner, J. H. Curtis, and T. Guilderson. Solar forcing of drought frequency in the Maya lowlands. Science 292 (5520):1367-1370, 2001.
in which the collapse of the mayan civilisation was linked to adverse climate change using data obtained from lake deposits. If this is true and not all lies or all the layers in the lake were deposited in a year and no one realised or something, what makes it different from this:
T. C. Johnson, E. T. Brown, J. McManus, S. Barry, P. Barker, and F. Gasse. A high-resolution paleoclimate record spanning the past 25,000 years in southern East Africa. Science 296 (5565):113-132, 2002.
or
K. Kashiwaya, S. Ochiai, H. Sakai, and T. Kawai. Orbit-related long-term climate cycles revealed in a 12-Myr continental record from Lake Baikal. Nature 410 (6824):71-74, 2001.
The only difference i can see is that the first one is within accepted YEC time - no problem, the other two cannot be true because of what the YEC believes regardless of evidence.
