There is not enough erosion between the rock layers years for very many years to have passed between them.

Single floods don't deposit multiple layers consistent with hundreds of thousands of years of winter / summer cycles.

It's that simple.
I'm so sorry you seem unable to comprehend simple things.
Mount Saints Helens produced many layers and that was very small in comparison to the worldwide flood.

1. that's a volcano spewing lava and ashes, not water

2. no, it didn't deposit anything remotely consistent with hundreds of thousands of years worth of winter/summer cycles



If you think single floods are capable of depositing geological layers consistent with hundreds of thousands of independent winter/summer cycles, then that should be fairly easy to demonstrate with an experiment in controlled conditions.

Go for it and publish a proper report where you detail how the experiment was set up exactly, how that's representative of the real world and what the results are so that others may review it, repeat the experiment and double check the results.


You're not goint to, are you?

I'ld ask you to point me to a paper where such is already described, but I know that no such papers exist because since nobody has succesfully demonstrated such a thing because physics doesn't work that way. :)


(here's the part where you invoke magic as to why we can't reproduce this magical geological process)

Part of its ice pack melted and there was a lot of water which mixed with other things. The world wide flood had lots more.

This one has one

Okay, yup. Multiple layers. But searching I found that this is nothing new. The existence of such layering was known long before the Mt. St. Helens blast . Creationists do not find anything new there. Here is one thing that you should understand, particles fall much faster through air than through water. So coarse sorting can occur in a very short time. Particle also fall out of the air far more quickly than they do out of water.

In other words, Coarsely sorted sediments from the air do not help you when it comes to extremely well supported sediments in the water.

Not Mt. St. Helens.

As to the so called "Little Grand Canyon". Not even close. Horseshoe Bend in the Grand Canyon is an example of an embedded or incised meander. There is nothing like it from Mt. St. Helens. They try to limit the pictures of the North Fork of the Toutle River because this does not look like the Grand Canyon at all:

Sorry but uniformitarianism is a joke. No this proves that the rock layers are from the flood.

How do you explain the lamprey which has not evolved for supposedly 350 million years?
during that time there was supposedly 2 great extinction events at 252 million and 66 million years ago. Those events were so drastic that even the ocean depths were affected. Also there was supposedly a large cooling of the oceans about 34 million years ago. With all the competition with other species, supposedly changing drastically, and during the fight for survival in these above events, why didn’t the lamprey evolve? This refutes evolution and billions of years also.

How does it do that? You need more than just handwaving. I can tell you why that does not support a flood, but I asked my question first. And meanwhile you still cannot come even close to explaining this:

Another improperly asked question. Try again.

It did not need to adapt in order to survive.
If you knew anything about how the real evolution works and not the strawmen crap you claim is evolution, you would not have needed to present this above embarrassment

Nope
Not even close

I love the total denial of the fact. Evolution causes vast changes in very short times but none in vast eons. What a delusion. You have been had.
