All I've been doing is defending my reasonable scenario, that comes originally from creationist presentations, from ridiculous objections to it. Gardens and deltas don't do justice to the actual appearance of the strata. I haven't brought up anything new. I didn't want to get into this argument and my few offerings are perfectly reasonable and have not been reasonably refuted.
And the fact is your scenario is
not reasonable because it rejects the evidence that contradicts your proposition. You've been shown processes that detail how a geological column might come about and those processes that might affect it. That you refuse to educate yourself about geological processes and earth science is plainly frustrating. Your arguments have most certainly been reasonably refuted.
As far as deposition goes, Paleosols have been discussed which you seem to reject. Ash deposits, I don't think have been discussed but they also reject your proposition that climatic/atmospheric events destroy them. As an example, Mt. Mazama Ash. It can be found throughout the Northwest and is a great indicator for archaeological chronology. It is a large and distinguishable layer in the stratigraphic layer. 7,000 years and that layer is STILL there.

Or how about the Palouse Hills which have a large layer made up of Loess deposits layed down during the last Ice Age. Erosion hasn't worn the hills down to the bedrock, or is that not what you would expect in your scenario? By the way, Loess in these hills were deposited by wind in a relatively stable climate.
