Quote# 28602

There is sometimes places in the textbooks that lie. Such as the Colorado carved the Grand Canyon over millions of years. Science has show, through the press, that you don't necessarily need a little water and a lot of time, but a lot of water and a little time. If they want to state these "new findings" they should be able to, which also needs an explanation of how the water got there (such as the Great Flood). Secondly, if you backed the water up in the Grand Canyon, if would all fill in above the Canyon's "water" line...creating a giant lake.

The sediment tells a different tale. This proves that dirt itself is smarter than the average fundy =)

#1vaderfan represents the confused but assertive school of geology.

How does science ever show anythin "through the press"?

So now the fact that something gets printed in a newspaper/magazine is considered scientific proof?
Me no understand. Me from Barcelona.

What the hell are you rambling about? Geologists have indicated that the Grand Canyon was formed by water erosion over millions of years. Psycho nutballs like yourself are the only ones insisting otherwise.

It doesn't matter how much water you have, erosion is still going to take a LONG time to produce something like the Grand Canyon.

And this drivel was on a starwars forum? Those poor poor geeks having to put up with this nonsense... maybe #1vaderfan thought that since they enjoyed science fiction, that he might have been able to get away with fictitious science.

There's so much concentrated idiocy here that I don't know where to begin. Instead, I'll look at the statement about "Science has shown, through the press" crap. Real science never 'shows' through the press. Only charlatans and the intellectually dishonest go to the press first. BTW: This is their way of getting around that whole peer-reviewed thing.

you don't necessarily need a little water and a lot of time, but a lot of water and a little time


what a load of bullshit...a load of water and a little time would create a lake, or a crater, or a valley....actually, it'll create nothing

You, uh, you dropped this "pseudo". It's supposed to go on that "science" there.

As someone who has actually read a textbook, I must say, "no".

Even if there is actually a possibility of a great mass of water and a shorter time, that raises, as vaderfan points out, quite a few new questions.

I would have to say occam's razor points towards the textbook theory.

A lot of water and a little time?, sounds like a song by Britney Spears. Or Hurricane Katrina.

You can't blame #1vaderfan for not liking geology.

He finds its lack of faith... disturbing.

Thanks for that, you made at a recovering star wars nerd laugh like a tickled child.

I'm almost certain this vaderfan person watched a video you can find on Google video called 'lies in the textbooks'. In that video the speaker makes this claim about the grand canyon. This guy hasn't even misunderstood it, the original argument was really this retarded.

Okay get a block of granite and dump water on it, according to you it should have carved a massive fissure into one of the hardest rocks on Earth.

Ah, Darth's cousin Dolt Vader. The stupid is strong with this one.PS If you were my kid until you read some of those textbooks and learned the difference between internet urban legend nonsense, creationist pseudo-science, and real science, you would not be wasting time posting on a starwars website.
