I do, we just never see any from you and this is no different.
I know you are a very forgetful person, or at least you like to run
away and try to forget things. However, on the 29th September 2008 you
failed to deal with a number of items that were first listed by
Boikat.
So, to help you, here (again) are the mistakes Boikat (and now myself)
think you need to address:-
Claiming Paul Neuman was a creationist....
Claiming that "Dr." Kent Hovind has made lots of *scientific*
discoveries...
Claiming wars have been fought because some scientific finding
discredited some facet of some religion...
Claiming to have a "higher education" than most posters to this news
group....
Claiming to understand how geologists determine the age of any given
sample of rock...
Now, will you deal with them? Or do I need to keep reminding you?

You're a moron, you know that? Here I am, reading real, actual truth--so
I'll share some with you.

Start here, and by the way you still owe us a demonstration of the maths you
claimed would support your views in another recent thread. So far, nothing
on this from you.
Basically, you are crowing about how wonderful every kook and creationist
author you could find is, and pretending that real scientists don't know
what they are talking about.
Willful ignorance on your part.

Perhaps the article was too complicated as is demonstrated by your
frustration and use of nasty words?
Yes, that is it. I can always tell when you bozo's have no answer to truth
when you start calling on vulgar language to release your frustration.
You must need a more simplistic approach. Here ya go:
The average sediment transport rate through the Grand Canyon was measured to
be around 500,000 tons per day.
Multiply that by 365. And then multiply the result by your claimed age of
the earth.
The bottom of the Grand Canyon should be somewhere in China by now!
I won't mention the erosion of the rocky's. Too embarrassing for you.

Pitman is not a kook silly. And i like how he puts his name on the web page.
He does not beg for donations on his main page for the research either.
He shares his information with young inquiring minds without a fee. How
about that.

Bullshit. Quote: "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies, and
statistics". The Right Honorable Benjamin Disreali, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield,
KG, PC, FRS, late Prime Minister of Her Majesty's Government.
See further Mark Twain: "Figures often beguile me, particularly when I have
the arranging of them myself; in which case the remark attributed to Disraeli
would often apply with justice and force: 'There are three kinds of lies:
lies, damned lies, and statistics.'"

I read lots of web sites, journals, books, etc. But I tend to avoid the
ones written by Creationists, it is true. For sure I can't learn anything
from those sites except how stubborn and foolish people can be when they
think truth comes only from a 2,500 year old book.

The math is 1+1=2
If turbidity currents happen under water, then everywhere we see turbidity
current evidence on dry land must have been under water.
I can prove that you can't pick up a pencil using math.

I thought you were trying to use maths to prove there was a Biblical
universal Flood.
You flunk. A resit of this exam is possible in one year's time.
At some point in the very distant past, sure.
Short version of the troll's link, for those who can't be bothered to
read:
'I don't understand a lot about the Earth's current geological state,
so scientists are wrong. However, the evidence does just happen to
support a story mentioned in the Bible that people like me have been
making pseudoscientific shit up about for years. We look forward to
setting your children's education back at least one hundred years.
Please browse the links at the bottom for more misunderstandings of
science which we can feed to the unprepared, and waste the time of the
scientists who work to improve our lives and understanding of the
universe. And the name of our website is just a coincidence, because
creationism is nothing to do with ID. Those people don't support us at
all.'
So where's the oil company Pittman founded? If conventional geology
is wrong, he should be making a killing?
Pittman is well known to us. He's the guy who still doesn't quite
grasp
the geometry of chevron folds.

We know, and not only figures, a whole theology, and much of
what you consider to be science.
I thinks its called playing the hand that you have been
dealt. It makes one wonder if people like adman are
hypocrites because they are creationists or creationists
because they are hypocrites.
False. Welcome to the modern theory of Plate Tectonics. When
continents
collide, and they do collide, marine sediments between them are thrust
up onto land.
There are other ways in which your assertions are wrong.
By why bother ...

There are two answers to that:

2) the same place they would be if they were the result of a WWF,
except if the canyon was the result of a WWF, the delta would be
glaringly obvious, which is isn't, due to the above mentioned reasons:
some was simply desolved in the rainwater, the rest spread out through

The normal flow of the Colorado is 620 cubic meters per second. Of
water
So, about 620 metric tonnes per second, Or 53.6 million tonnes of
water a day.
Your number 500,000 tons, is approximatively 1% of that. So the river
must carry 1% per weight of sand, gravel, loam and other sediments.
The numbers seem high but in the proper ballpark. Note that there are
numerous dams over the Colorado, which would impede the flow of
sediments.
Also over 90% of the water is diverted for irrigation purposes; does
that mean that the remaining "water" is 10% sediments, brown sludge
when it reaches the sea in Baja California ?
Of course, the Colorado River bassindrains 630,000 square kilometers;
now calculate how long it would take to erode 630,000 square
kilometers of land by 1 millimeter, at the rate of 500,000 tons a
day. Might take a while.
Especially since adman can't get past "fingers and toes".
Boikat
His arguments are utterly bogus.

But that requires the major assumption that the river that formed the
Grand Canyon had existed from the moment the Earth was formed, and
that would mean there was water on the surface of the Earth.
That is a notion that you dismissed yourself in a posting in July:
"you know that the solar system was too hot to for any planet to have
water,
"billions" of years ago, so why deny it?"
(See thread entitled "Science Caught in YET ANOTHER LIE")
So tell me adman, was there water on the surface of the earth billions
of years ago or not?
After all you cannot have it both ways.

I used the "claimed age of the earth" to illustrate the point DA. To make

colorado has been flowing since the formation of the earth.

Of course, it is difficult for the creationist to make time to study
any science because they are generally too far-gone brainwashed to
accept anything that they are told is not directly sourced from god.
No amount of intervention or de-programming can help.
My general response to creationist thinking is this: refusal to see
evidence does not make that evidence any less real. That refusal to
see evidence only highlights the blinders that have been placed on
them by their fellow human beings, in the name of their own brand of
god.
The “science” of creationism is intellectually dishonest. The typical
creationist can not provide evidence for their theory because they are
not intellectually capable. That’s not quite accurate. The typical
creationist may be intellectually capable, however, for some
pathological reason that intelligence is used in the pursuit of some
intangible “thing” that makes them feel better, more important even,
about their place in the universe, as if reality isn’t sufficient.
The typical creationist will not provide evidence for their theory
because the bottom line is always “faith”. The typical creationist
will point to the world and claim its very existence is the ultimate
evidence of their theory. And this theory can never be tested because
it has all been done. There is nothing left to test. It exists,
therefore it is from god.
Thankfully, real scientific endeavor is always about falsifying
hypotheses. Creationist “science” can not stand up to that sort of
rigorous testing because it is not possible to quantify “faith”.
After all, how can a creationist falsify faith?

^^^^^^^^^^^
Brilliant work, except for the lies and errors. Spotted this one right
in the beginning.
" Wouldn't it be logical to assume that there should be a fair amount
of weathering of each of these layers over that amount of time? But
this expected uneven weathering is generally lacking (see
illustration).1 Just about all the layers have un-weathered or at best
very rapidly weathered parallel and smooth contact zones. "
Actually, there are many areas that have experience uneven weathering.
Not to mention periods of uplift and distortion. Check out The Wave in
Arizona for one of the coolest examples. Yes, there are areas where
the sediments lie fairly flat for many layers. Anyone who has had to
drive through the MidWest should not be surprised at this.
What's really sad is that the answer is right in front of your and
Sean's noses but your brains just can't process it.
"Some of these rates [of erosion] are obviously staggering; the Yellow
River could peneplain [flatten out] an area with the average height
that of Everest in 10 million years. The student has two courses open
to him: to accept long extrapolations of short-term denudation
[erosion] figures and doubt the reality of the erosion surfaces, or to
accept the erosion surfaces and be skeptical about the validity of
long extrapolations of present erosion rates." -B.W. Sparks
Look at the last half of the last sentence. Consider all the talk in
the news lately about climate change (even the deniers are talking
about cycles). Consider also all the worrying those wacko
environmentalists are doing about the unprecedented rates of erosion.
Does it not occur to you that the error lies not in the hundreds of
years of work by hundreds of geologists but in your underlying
assumption that present rates of erosion have been constant or at
least represent the average over the years?
And let us for a moment consider the silly notion that you guys are
right and see where that leaves the geologists
Head Geologist- "Alas, alack, and woe is me! The timeline we have
constructed is all wrong! Our radiometric dating is hopelessly flawed!
Where shall we look for a model now! *sob*
Student- "Here! Here is the answer for everything!" *proffers bible
and opens it to relevant passages on the deluge*
Head Geologist- "What is this? You're saying that the poorly
translated ancient writings of a small semitic tribe will provide the
answers that I need?"
Student- "Yes. You see all the layers you see here were layed down in
that great flood (except for the ones that weren't and don't ask where
the sediments came from)"
Head Geologist- "Hmm, yes I see. The burrows, the sediments that could
only have been laid down in arid conditions, the fossils laid down in
order of their appearance on earth, the greater density of older rock,

Umm, no. Stephen King's "The Mouth of Madness" presents a saner

This is a perfect example of how Creationists multiply their errors.
At least Sean knew to address erosion of the whole Colorado river
basin and to limit himself to the age of the Grand Canyon.
In case the point slipped right by you; No geologist says the Grand
Canyon is as old as the earth itself. And the Grand Canyon carries
sediments from a drainage basin many times larger than itself.

So you say 1) "Math does not lie"
and you also say 2) "I can pull figures out of my ear too"
One or the other please, not both. Make your mind up.

But people can lie with numbers. I refer you to Darrell Huff's "How to
Lie with Statistcs
Only because presenting you with a refutiation of your mindless PRATT
seems to be completely ignored by you:
http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CD/CD210.html
If there is any "hand waving" going on, it's because you are an
ignorant fart. You are also an intellectual coward.
Boikat
You also ignore that if the canyon were the result of a world wide
flood, you would have the same problem, idiot.
Another problem for you is that *real* scientists have found the
sediment you seem to think is missing, and it does not support a YEC
world view:
http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CD/CD210.html
You, adman, are an ignorant intellectual coward.
Boikat
So a web site and a degree on Pitman's part overrides all the degrees
and papers by all the non-creationist geologists? Thanks for letting
me know.

I just did. Found some great stuff on geology and a an interesting

It's not realistic to take the current rate of erosion in the Colorado
river basin and extrapolated it back millions of years.

But I know you are a very forgetful person, or at least you like
to run away and try to forget things. However, on the 29th
September 2008 you failed to deal with a number of items that were
first listed by Boikat.
So, to help you, here (again) are the mistakes Boikat (and now
myself) think you need to address:-
Claiming Paul Neuman was a creationist....
Claiming that "Dr." Kent Hovind has made lots of *scientific*
discoveries...
Claiming wars have been fought because some scientific finding
discredited some facet of some religion...
Claiming to have a "higher education" than most posters to this
news group....
Claiming to understand how geologists determine the age of any
given sample of rock...
Now, will you deal with them? Or do I need to keep reminding you?

The Grand Canyon and its side canyons, of course, has been dated
recently. The youngest side canyons are only about 9,000,000 years
old.

Translation - I can't get these people to fall for the lies I've
spouted. Since I don't have any facts or logic to back up what I say
I'll fall back on insults.
I suggest that in that case you track back and read the endless
dialogues in which he evades, regurgitates endlessly unfounded
assertions and lies.
If it makes perfect sense to you, you evidently don't have a freakin'
clue about the subjects on which he pontificates.
RF
Wow.
In the same vein:
I weighed myself on the scales today and I weigh two pounds more than
last week. At this rate, by the time I retire, I'll weigh 1358 pounds.
It also means that I am not as old as I thought; I guess I'm really
less than two. On the bright side, I suppose that means I'm
precocious.

Now that pretty much sums it up.

I'm taking issue with the fact that there should be evidence of
erosion.
I'm taking issue with the fact that the detritus should fill up a
state
the size of Mexico. If you can't compute how much sediment there
should be, you're
not in a position to claim there isn't enough.
You've already be given a link to the Colorado River Delta. That has a
a chunk of it.
Google "Salton Trough" for much of the rest.
Stuart
You obviously cannot prove the information wrong.
That is a lot of sediment ma'boi

Be sure to post a notice when this happens so we don't miss

I don't even play golf.
A lot of it did.
Try reading beyond the first paragraph, crack head.
The trough was filled with sediment. It initially opened up
as a spreading center; a failed rift which subsided and was then
filled by
with sediment by the Colorado river.

Good. And what is the mass of Mexico?
Do the math, support your claims, assman.

you guys have been saying christ will return...for 2000 years

Did the sediment fall into the crack or did it create mexico?
create mexico... BWAhahahahahahahahhahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh look. The little assmonkey ran away again. What a fucking coward
he is.

I never said it created Mexico. You claim the volume eroded
should be the equivalent of Mexico.
Try and pay attention crack head.
The Colorado river did fill up the Salton trough.
Creatobabblers pretend that didn't happen.
