You are speaking hypothetically–but not acknowledging actual geological data.
This is why I have introduced Sloss sequences–geological sequences based upon data collected from boreholes, drilled down through the sedimentary layers.
Based upon this actual (not hypothetical) data, the sedimentary layers upon the continents were deposited by six basic cycles (megasequences) of “transgressing” and “regressing” ocean waters–that is, ocean waters flowing onto the continent, then flowing back off.
Such transgressing and regressing did not “destroy all of the fossils,” but instead, suddenly and completely encased them within the sedimentary layers.
So, you are making suppositions that run contrary to actual geological data.
Or maybe it just slowly and gently encased them, instead of disintegrating them in an aqueous sandblaster, rolling them along at high speed in an abrasive environment.
Yes, the ocean rose, sediment washed off the land into the ocean-covered area which is now land, organisms lived on or above that sediment, died, were buried (or vice-versa), the ocean receded, the layers were compressed into rock.
When the oceans rose, this was a “transgression,” when the waters transported and deposited layers of ocean sediment more and more inland —so when oceans rose, any land sediments would be moved further inland with them.
The writer concludes that the history of the North American craton for the past 600-700 million years includes six major episodes of changing tectonic behavior.
You still have not provided any geophysics equations. Until you do, your posts are 100% pure speculation.
And the speculations by a beloved minister of the gospel about the data are most assuredly not the same thing as the data. His posts are contrary to your speculations, I will grant you that.
That is not borne out by your comments in this thread. Repeatedly, you have stated to those who actually agree with the Sloss model and have attempted to inform you of sound geology, that they are contrary to actual geological data, despite being consistent with the laws of physics and well understood geological processes of sedimentation.
The study of geological mega sequences supplies actual data (from core samples of the layers of sedimentary rock) not just hypothetical models—data for us to reason from, to decide what it evidences about our earth’s past. While old-earth geologists and young-earth geologists disagree on the timescale of mega sequences, they are in basic agreement about the “story” told by the data—namely, that six basic cycles of transgressing and regressing ocean waters intruded upon the continents at increasing sea levels even to the point of covering them. And with the increasing sea levels were increasing amounts of sediment—finally reaching millions of cubic kilometers of sediment on each continent by the final mega sequence (around 56 million cubic kilometers on the North American continent). All are also agreed that the flooding waters began draining (regressing) off the continents during the final mega sequence (the Tejas)—and massive sand beds in the Gulf of Mexico also attest to this runoff.
The disagreement is over the timescale. Did these six mega sequences occur over 500+ years, or over a period of only one year? Were these six periodic floorings of a very, very slow rising ancient sea? Or were these mega sequences caused by catastrophic rising ocean waters—all a part of a one- year catastrophic Flood?
His posts are contrary to your speculations, I will grant you that.
