earth layers and erosion
Here’s something I am confused on, maybe someone can shed some light on the subject. Erosion occurs from wind and water slowly wearing off the surface of rocks. Since there is obviously more wind/water resistance on some formations, they would see a faster rate of erosion, which would, over time, end up leveling out the formation into the surrounding terrain. Are we to assume that eventually, after thousands of years, that the world will end up being pretty much flat and even? And rock formations are not being formed currently, right? I mean, you don’t drive down a dessert road and say, “hey, there’s a new plateau!” So, given the proposed earth age by the evolutionists, how extreme face of the earth must have been to have eroded to the still diverse landscapes we see today.
with erosion, layers of the earth’s crust are being revealed. How are these layers created? Scientists associate each layer older and older as the layers go deeper. does that mean that the earth was smaller before, and with the addtion of these layers, it’s gotten thicker? I would think, with erosion, we’d actually see the layers going away.
Take the Grand Canyon. I guess at one time, it was just a river even with the land. and it just eroded the earth away, carrying the rock and soil out to the mouth. So does that mean the grand canyon is getting worse and worse? will the sides cave in eventually?1,939 views
