did you know that the rock layers in the grandcanyon provide strong evidence for the biblical flood? the grand canyon, with its distinctive layersexposed in the canyon walls, has been carved through a high plateau. however, if we follow the layers into theeastern part of arizona, we see the same rock units about a mile lower in elevation. in this area, we see significant folding ofthe layers. according to conventional geology, this upliftand folding occurred long after the sediments had hardened into rock, so it should havecaused significant fracturing of the rocks.
but this is not what we find. instead, it appears that the layers—whichsupposedly represent 300 million years of earth history—have undergone plastic deformation,without fracturing. this suggests the sediments were soft andunconsolidated when they bent. this contradicts evolutionary earth history,but it fits nicely with the layers forming during the biblical flood and being bent beforethey had become hard rock. to find out more from creation ministriesinternational visit our website creation.com
