Interesting.
Perhaps, there has been more turmoil than Scientists currently know about, and Geologist
Hank Johnson was right.
Makes sense to me. Rock isn’t constantly being created so there should be gaps. It’s entirely possible for an area to be formed, and then no lava or sedimentary layers are added to it for geological periods of time.
There have been multiple, major unconformities throughout geologic history. If you are standing anywhere above sea level right now, that rock will not be preserved but eroded into the ocean.
Hmmm. Igneous rock underneath, devoid of fossils, then layers upon layers of sandstone and metamorphic rock containing bazillions of mixed fossils, now, what forces on earth could have brought about such a cataclysmic chafe, all of a sudden like?
Hmmm. Water. Flood, laminar deposition, channular erosion of massive amounts of sediments....
World wide flood?
Nah. That fits another paradigm and we reject the basic premise of that one, but replace it easily with untold, unobserved eons of time.
Well... This certainly answers a lot of questions that crossed my mind in 1975 when we (family) visited the Grand Canyon...
I think they are exactly right. Either that or it’s something else.
Psst, don't tell anyone but I think they're here in the Ozarks.
It all can be explained if you look at is from a Biblical, global disaster.
Check out Kent Hovind - Creation Seminar 1 on YouTube to get started... If you dare.
During President Biden's last press conference, didn't he mention discussing the Afghan situation on the phone, with the Prime Minister of Rodinia?

“Barra Peak”
Cool name for a geology student.
The missing terrain around mesas, volcanic throats and inside the Grand Canyon was catastrophically scrubbed away by one or more enormous floods, in fairly recent history geologically speaking. Floods caused possibly by the sudden draining of an inland sea. That process created significant “discontinuities” which are clearly visible on the surface today.
500 million years from now perhaps most of those discontinuities will be buried under sediment and volcanic ash, and maybe someone will be excavating and puzzling over them.
I’ve watched a volcano in Iceland fill a valley with lava in 4 months. I watched as a road was washed out and a cement bridge with a 20 foot cavern left behind in 4 hours. You can’t make me believe it took millions of years to carve out a canyon.
There is a large plume of magma situated beneath the Colorado Plateau. It is more buoyant (lighter, since it is melted) than the surrounding rocks of the mantle. This causes the area around the Colorado Plateau to be uplifted a few inches every thousand years or so. The river can easily erode through this amount of uplift and create the canyon.

God, creation, the flood, young earth, the Bible! they should read it, that would help! putting your faith in more fake science wont help!
Maybe both figures are wrong - maybe the earth is much younger than they think it is.
Maybe their methods of dating are erroneous, maybe their benchmark is off.
We do know that time is not a constant, flows differently around massive objects. Maybe there are other variables we don't know about.
Water was always the explanation for the Grand Canyon.
Consider that you have Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef National Monuments not to far away.
