Glenn Morton's Evidence Examined

Sure, here is an example.USING MICROFOSSILS IN PETROLEUM EXPLORATIONThis is a paleontologist describing how he uses paleontology and the rock units found to explore for oil in the Gulf of Mexico for an oil company.Please notice his figure 8, where he describes how significant paleostratigraphical units, together with major stratigraphical units, help him to interpret where holes should be drilled.Let's copy the last paragraph in the main body of the text here:

Really? How so?I mean, anyone can walk around the appropriate suburbs of Jo'burg where Wits Rocks outcrop and accidentally bump his/her toe on a Wits rock containing some gold.The real problem is how to try and predict what's going to be found underground. That's where YEC's don't make the cut. Old earth models work.

Lithified burrow casts. We get those a lot. In real life all over the world.So easy. The present is the key to the past. Basic geology.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.

Nope. Faults form relatively straight lines. Just like faults do. That would not cause meandering systems, at all.

This one is funny: Me neither. Maybe you read too much creationist stuff to know what's going on in geology? I'm not too sure why you mention this.Some "layers" are formed by volcanic action in Hawaii. Some "layers" are formed by volcanic action in the Great Rift Valley.Some "layers" are formed on deltas emptying in the Mediterranean. Some "layers" are formed on deltas emptying in Lake Victoria.Some "layers" are formed in the deepest parts of lakes. Some "layers" are formed in the shallowest parts of lakes.Some "layers" are formed at MOR's. Some "layers" are formed on beaches.Some "layers" are formed in the Sahara. Some "layers" are formed on Antarctica due to glaciers. Some "layers" are formed on Antarctica due to thick ice covers.Some "layers" are formed in the Kalahari desert due to wind. Some layers are formed in the Kalahari desert due to rivers evaporating.Some "layers" are formed due to floods when rains fall on the highest peaks of the Drakensberg and the mountains get eroded.The Himalayas are growing at around 5 mm a year.All of these happening at the same time.In geology we can distinguish between those settings. The method is quite simple. The present is the key to the past.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.Edited by Pressie, : No reason given.
