ok, hERE'S hOW i eXPLAIN THE eVENTS ON THAT cROSS sECTION

 yES IT STARTS WITH THE WORLDWIDE fLOOD OF nOAH.  PICTURE NOTHING FOR STARTERS JUST TO MAKE IT EASIER TO BUILD UP THE SCENARIO.  tHEN PICTURE THE STRATA ALL LAID OUT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE FRAME TO THE TOP, ALL NEATLY STRAIGHT AND FLAT AND UNDISTURBED.   i'M NOT SURE HOW THE STRATA WERE ALL DAID DOWN BY THE fLOOD, MAYBE SOME CREATIONISTS HAVE THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION.  ITHER SESDIMENTS PRECIPITATED OUT OF THE STANDING WATER AT SOME POINT OR WAVES WASHED UP OVER THE LAND, LADEN WITH THE SEPARATE SEDIMENTS ONE AFTER ANOTHER.  PERHAPS BOTH METHODS OCCURRED.

JbUT AT SOMNE POINT THEY AWERE ALL LAID DOWN AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PROBABLY TO A DEPTGH OF ABOUT THREE ILES IN THE gRAND cANYON AREA, JUDGING FROM CLUES ON THAT CROSS SECTION.  

tHEN, AFTER THEY WERE ALL IN PLACE, SOME GREAT UPHEAVAL OCCURRED.  tHE fLOOD MAY YHAVE BEGUN TO ABATE, OR PERHAPS IT WAS THIS GREAT DISTURBANCE THAT BETGAN ITS ABATEMENT, i'M NOT SURE HOW TO THINK ABOUT THAT.  bUT THE TWO EVENTS PROBABLY HAPPENED MORE OR LESS IN THE SAME MOMENT OF TIME.  pROBABLY THE DISTURBANCE COINCIDED EXACLY WITH THE BEGINNING OF THE fLOOD'S DDRAINING AWAY.  

tia MAJOR PART OF THIS GREAT CATACLYMSMIC EVENT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE TECTONIC SEPARATION OF THE CONTINENTS.  tHE aTLANDNTIC rIDGE IS OBVIOUSLY WHERE THEY SPLIT BETWEEN THE aMERICAS AND eUROPE AND aFRICA WHEN IT WAS ALL ONE BODY OF LAND.  tHE LAND BROKE APART AT THAT POINT, LALONG THTA LINE OF MAGMA WE SEE AS THE aTLANTIC rIDGE.  tHE CONTINENTS MOVE AWAY FROM THAT LINE IN BOTH DIRECTIONS, AWAY FROM EACH OTHER.   

i 'M THINKING OF THIS OCCURRING ABOUT THE SAME TIME THE fLOOD BEGAN TO DRAIN BUT THE TIMING COULD BE DIFFERENT TO SOME EXTENT THOUGH NOT BY MUCH.  tHE MOVEMENT OF THE TECTONIC PLATES TRIGGERED THE VOLCANOES AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CROSS SECTION AND NO DOUBT HUNREDS OF VOLCANOES AROUND THE WORLD,.  iT WOULD ALSO HAVE BUCKLED THE LAND IN VARIOUJSUS PLACES, FORMED THE aPPALACHIAN MOUNTS AND COMPARABLE MOUNTSINS IN ewUEROPE, EVEN PUSHING UP THE rOCKIES IN THE FAR WEST, THE aLPS IN eUORPE ETC.  tHIS WAS ONE HUGE WORLDWIDE CATASTROPHE, ALL RELATED IN SOME WAY TO THE fLOOD. 

aLL THE ssTRATA WERE ALREADY IN PLACE.  iT WAS THEIS GREAT UPHEAVAL THAT BROKE IT UP HERE AND THERE AROUND THE WORLD, TILTED IT, TWISTED IT AND SO ON.  i THINK IT ALL HAPPENED DURING THIS ONE GREAT TECTONIC EVENT, ALL THE FOLCANOES AND THE REARRANGING OF THE LAND IN VARIOUS PLACES.  tHE PUSHING UP OF THE REGION IN THE CROSS SECTION.  tHE CRACKING OPEN OF THE gRAND cANYON AS THE LAND WAS PUSHED UP BY THE BREAKING UP OF THE ROCK UNDERNEATH THAT AREA THAT BECAME THE gREAT uNCONFORMTIY.  tHE MOUNDING OF THE LAND WOULD HAVE BROKEN UP THE LSTRATA ABOVE IT AND    MORE VIOLENTLY THAN IN OTHER PLACES IN THE AREA SO THAT IT WASHED INTO THE OPENING CRACK OF WHAT BECAME THE gRAND cANYON AND WASHED ALL AROUND IT TOO, SCOURING OFF THE kAIBAB PLATEUA.   tO THE NORTH THE PUSHING UP OF THE LAND BROKE OFF THE PIECES THAT LEFT THE CLIFFS THAT BECAME THE gRAND sTAIRCASE.  

i THINK THIS WAS ONE HUGE WORLDWIDE EVENT.  nOAH AND FAMILY WERE THE ONLY LIVING HUMANS LEFT, RIDING OIN THE ARK OVER THE mIDDLE EST AREA SO RELATIVELY FREE OF THE EFFECTS OF ALL THIS UNDERGROUND OR UNDERWATER DISTURBANCE EXCEPT NO DOUBT FOR SOME PRETTY HEAVE SWAVE ACTION.    aND aRARAT WOULD SOON APPEAR WHERE THE ARK CAME TO REST.  aFTER WHICH THEY WANTED SOME TIME FOR THE WATER TO FULLY DRAIN AWAY AD THE LAND TO DRY OUT.

TGHERE WAS ONE PROBLEM AT FIRST THAT KEPT COMING UPT.  cREREATIONISTS \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\


tHERE WAS ONE PROBLEM AT FIRST THAT KEPT COMING UP.  THIS WAS THE gREAT uNCONFORMTIY AT THE BOTTOM OF THE gRAND cANYON.  iT SEEMED FOR SOME REASON TO HAVE TO HVE BEEN THERE BEFORE THE STRATA WERE LAID DOWN AND THAT'S WHAT i'M DISPUTING.  cREATIONISTS AS i'VE RUN ACROSS THEM DON'T ATTIRUBTE all OF THE STRATA TO THE fLOOD, BUT ONLY THIS OR THAT PART OF THE COLUMN, DIFFERENT CREATIONISTS ALLOTTING DIRFFERENT SEGMENTS OF IT TO THE fLOOD.  i DON'T SEE HOW THE REAST OF THE STRATA CAN BE EXPLAINED THEN.  tHEY SWERE ALL PRETTY CLEARLY FORMED BY THE SAME PROCESSES, THEY ALL HAD TO HAVE BEEN LAID DOWN BY THE fLOOD IT SEEMS TO ME.  bUT THAT LEFT ME WITH HAVING TO EXPLAIN THE gREAT uNCONFORMITY AS OCCURRING AFTER THE fLOOD SO THAT THE STRATA IN THE ROCK BENEATH THE CANYON ARE ALSO EXPLAINABLE AS CRETED BY THE fLOOD.

i FORGET WHY THIS WAS A RPBOJE AT ALL i GUESS BECAUSE MY OWN ANSWER SEEMS TO OBVIOUS TO ME NOW, BUT IT WAS A PROBLEM FOR SURE.  

mY ANSWER IS THAT 

oh IS THIS WHY?  tHEY ALWAYS EXPLAIN UNCONFRMITYIES OF THIS TYPE, THAT IS aNGULAR uNCONFORMITIES, AS HAVING OCCURRED IN STAGES, THE LOWER PART BEING LAID DOWN OVER TIME AND THEN TILTED, AFTER WHICH THE UPPER STRATA ARE LAID DOWN ON TOP OF IT.  tHAT'S HOW THEY EXPLAIN ALL ANGULAR UNCONFORMITIES.    ok, THAT MUST HAVE BEEN WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS.


i SPENT UITE A BIT OF TIME PROBVING TO MYSELF THAT ANANGULAR UNCONFORMTIY COULD BE CAUSED BY A TECTONIC FORMCE FREOM THE SIDE PUSHIHNG THE LOWER STRAT UP AGAINST THE UPPER COLUMN SO THAT IT LOOKS TILTED AS IT BREAKS OFF AND THE UPPER PART APPEARS TO LIE OVER IT.  wELL IT DOES LIE OVER IT BUT IT WAS ALREADY THERE, JUST THAT THE LOWER PART BUCKLED UNDER IT AND SLIDE UNDER IT LEAVING THE UPPER PART HORIZONTAL MORE OR LESS. 


yES, TGHIS IS HOW i ENDED UP EXPLAIING THE WHOLE SHEBANTG, INCLUDING ALL THE ANGULAR UNCONFORMITIES EVERYWHERE ON THE PLANET.  tHEY ALL WER ECREATED AT THE SAME TIME IN THIS ONE MAJOR TECTONIC EVENT THAT CAME AT THE END O F THE fLOOD JUST AS IT WAS DRAINING WAWAY.  aLL OF THEM INCLUDING THE gREAT uNCONFORMITIY UNDER THE gRAND cANYON.   THE FORCE CAME FROMJ THE SIDE AND BUCKLED A SECTION OF THE LWER STRATA UNDERNEATH AN UPPER BLOCK OF STRATA AT SOME POINT WHERE THERE WAS SOME TEXTURAL SLIDING POSSIBILITY BETWEEN THE TWO ROCKS.  iN THE gRAND cANYON THE UPPER STRATA WERE STACKED TO A GREAT DEPTH, AT LEAST TWO MILES, MAYBE STHREE AND THEY SWITHDSTOOD THE BREAKING OUP THAT OCCURRED AT OTHER ANGULAR UNCONFRMITIES THAT IN MANY CASES LEFT JUST ONE HORIZONTAL LAYER INTANCT ON TOP OF THE TILTED LOWER STRATA.

tHE MOST FAMOUS ANGULAR UNCONFRMITY IS PROBABLY THE ONE AT sICCAR poINT WHEICH i SPENT UITE A BIT OF TIME INVESTIGATING.  


sORRY, BOT TO TAKE A BREAK.  

tO BE CONTINUED.
