Growing the Geologic Column

This is not worth the trouble as long as things are kept straight. We need some way to talk about all of the layers. Intrusions are out of order, yes. But let's not forget that we've pointed out igneous layers that are not intrusions. An example would be that lava layer on Ascension Island. I and others pointed out other igneous layers that exist. I hope you'll add detail to this, because it does not seem to make any sense. If sediment is depositing today on top of a sediment and any other layers that were there yesterday, that would seem to meet the requirement. We don't need to date them to know that.

That is a valid point. But it was not ignored. As I recall, you expressed the opinion that lava could not even form layers. That's the reason you received responses showing pictures of lava layers.In any event, the issue with lava being or not being relevant was discussed in Percy's Op and he indicated that he has reason to discuss all of the rocks under our feet. Lava layers may be relevant to the discussion without being a sedimentary layer. The Holocene layer is still under construction. What you are asking for is not necessarily going to exist in very many places on earth. Perhaps you should explain why that is problematic for you.

That's an awesome story. Nice work, bro, or sis!Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

No there is not. Not when your point has been refuted using your own definition and you have no response. Bye-bye.

Are you still here participating in a thread of no interest to you?This thread is about the geological layers that exist all around the world, and accordingly has very little to do with 'The Geological Column' as you define it.Maybe we'll get around to discussing some imaginary stuff later. See ya. Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

Game over.Particularly when we note that the Geological column as you describe it is an abstraction of what actually exists.

A claim that Faith has actually made in this thread... Completely refusing to face the fact that it is the mere presence of the footprints in question that is problematic.Faith stopped debating and started exclusively preaching and making excuses about two days ago. Will we ever get any of that evidence and explanation that was promised to come later?

A short break might be in order.

I think you are addicted to the attention you get here. You could put this stuff on your blog and hope that four people will read it, or you can post nonsense here and get feedback from anywhere between 3 and 15 people all within an hour

I imagine that everyone is a hero on their own blog.I can honestly say that I don't give a hoot what Faith posts on her blog. She is free to misrepresent, distort, and completely miss the point if that's what she wants to do there. I've been to her blog before, but the address is no longer in my browser history and I won't be expending even the minimal effort to find a link to her blog.Faith is a zealot, and not a particularly capable one. And zealots are a dime a dozen on the internet.

I'm not so certain either. But on balance I do not believe that Faith intentionally lies. I believe she has actually managed to convince herself.I was going back over posts of mine that Faith responded to, and I came across this gem (emphasis added by me): How do you type inconsistent tripe like that without having deceived yourself?
