There is no way that footprints in cretaceous strata could have been made if the strata below and above (including far below and far above) were laid down by the same single flood.


charlie:

Your thinking in uniformitarian terms. Go back and think through the

scenario in catastrophism terms. There's uncomformities all throughout the

column.

Unconformities are well explained by current geology. How does the flood model explain unconformitied like this one?

Post flood, the Upper Cretaceous rocks dried from mud later than the lower

Cretaceous rocks due to ponding, etc...Still obtaining equilibrium in the

after math of the flood, there were a series of less drastic inundations and

erosion events(rapid erosion of The Rockies..etc...)

during the tertiary period (Cenozoic) which rapidly covered areas where

footprints lay in hardened mud or soft rock (limestone is like concrete...fast

setting).

The Jurassic to the Cambrian(and I think some of the rocks identified as

preCambrian) represent the beginning to the full force of the flood. I

believe the first few generations of dinos preserved from the flood are

responsible for making these tracks in the the then carbonate mud, and

then swiftly covered up by later Tertiary geologic events.

Peace
 
In short, your suggestion is that the footprints were made after the flood, and in case of buried footprints they were buried by later landslides and so on? DO i understand this correctly?

That is my hypothesis in basic terms...yes.

I'm still working it out as I study these Cretaceous creekbeds in the Central

Texas area.

They appear to have been carbonate mud initially, and then rapidly covered.

What do you think?
