Scientists Prove Limestone Can Form Quickly
BY TIM CLAREY, PH.D. * | THURSDAY, JUNE 07, 2018
Many environmentalists are concerned with the anthropogenic production of carbon dioxide produced by burning fossil fuels. Research projects are being funded across the globe to find ways to sequester the “extra” CO2 produced by these processes in an effort to save our planet.
These results show that the primary minerals that compose limestone can rapidly form—easily within the timeframe of the global Flood in Genesis.
One of these projects was discussed recently in an article by Valeria Perasso of the BBC News Service.1 She detailed the efforts of a company called CarbFix, a consortium consisting of Reykjavik Energy, the French Centre for Scientific Research, the University of Iceland and Columbia University.

And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Christ and Paul refer to this event as the katabole ... which means ‘casting down’ - overthrow... (Isaiah 14:12-— and Ezekiel 28:12 -— describe the ‘casting down’ - overthrow of the devil.)
Really. In the Cambrian, there are only very primitive fish. No amphibians. No reptiles. No birds. And no mammals. No land plants, either. Those all appear at staggered intervals in the geologic fossil record later than the Cambrian.
That does nothing to explain the unconformity in the picture.
Here, Jeremiah gives us a bit of sight into 'unconformity' you seek. Some ancient history and yet to be future.
Jeremiah 4:22 I include verse 22 because God describes His children ... that word 'sottish' means 'stupid'.
22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce anger.
27 For thus hath the Lord said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.
Unfortunately carbon dating is used to claim much longer time periods. It’s use gets shakier and shakier as science finds new methods
Assuming things not in evidence because of word selection by translators is always dicey
Stretching out a canopy does not in and of itself imply anything. Allegory should never be assumed to be scientific
Hmm. Don’t see anything about sedimentary deposition. Or erosion. Or terrestial sandstone deposition.
Funny how they eroded perfectly flat before the sandstone was deposited. Go anywhere in the world and you see flat layers, folded or not.
Whatever force folded those layers also reflattened them and the sandstone layer was deposited before any meaningful erosion could occur.
That is a function of gradient. Erosion happens when you have a gradient. Deposition happens when the the gradient drops below what the mechanism can carry. So deposition tends to happen in already flat areas or into bodies of water.
Whatever force folded those layers also reflattened them and the sandstone layer was deposited before any meaningful erosion could occur.
You can't push a rope. And that is what you are trying here geologically.

Whenever you set out to build a model carrying personal bias, that tends to be reflected in the model's outcome. Global warming is the prime example.
There is just waay too much evidence of the Earth's antiquity to be overcome by biased science. I'll start with a simple one. The top of Mt. Everest is composed of marine limestone. Do you seriously think a flood could deposit marine limestone and then elevate it over 8,000 meters? In a matter of days?
Still waiting for you to post anything that disproves what I said.
Millions of years of erosion and seismic activity would create massive differences in layer placement and thickness everywhere. Instead you see the opposite — layers are remarkably consistent in thickness and depth. Even your picture shows this.
i already explained it to you. You just don’t like the answer. And you failed to rationally explain the folding - rock softens from heat due to compreession. Expansion would not heat the rock to allow the folds to undo themselves.
I said nothing about the folding, except that the folding left a flat surface and the sandstone layer had to be deposited before the folded layers had a chance to erode.
You are right, I stand corrected on this point.
I don't suggest one is right, the other wrong, or that one corrects the other, only that the Psalm gives us two different methods for measuring "God's time" and both can only correct if "God's time" is indefinite in our terms.
You disagree?
This link explains, better than I can, a different paradigm than the one most held to be true that the fossil record indicates formation that took millions of years to occur. The data is not being ignored. What you will find here is a different interpretation of the data. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_Mj9bR9BiqI
