Evolutionists need the magic of millions and billions of years to have a hope of convincing us that what is normally impossible according to the laws of science just might be possible if we allow unfathomable years for it to happen.
So it is that they want us to believe that it took millions or even billions of years for the geological features we see to have formed.
Well, not only is the science upon which assumptions rest based on an unproven and unprovable house of cards, we are learning that many of the things scientists once claimed had to take millions of years can actually happen in much less time.
Granite is one such thing.
From the video description:
People with granite bench tops in their kitchens are usually very proud of them, never failing to show them off to visitors. But thats not surprisingserving up dinner on a surface that was supposedly millions of years in the making carries a certain aura about it.
But in a recent paper, published in the Proceedings of the Geologists Association, granite specialist John Clemens stated, just about everything that was taught as recently as ten years ago about granitic magmatism has been turned on its head.
He then described how granites can form quickly. He concluded that granites belong with an increasing number of geological processes that were, catastrophic in their suddenness.
This eliminates yet another reason not to believe the Bibles timescale.
While this is certainly a dramatically different view of how granites form, be sensitive when telling your friends with granite bench tops, because they might find this research pretty deflating.

First, I think that all of the granite that I have seen does have the haloes, but it is all from close to the surface.
Second, remember that something even bigger than cooling had to be done first: Creating the granite that had to be cooled, along with the rest of the planet that said granite resides on.
Neither of us has the slightest clue how that was done either.
You do not help your argument by falsely portraying the very people who have some of the most intimate and broad experience with the geological and paleontological evidence anyone could possibly hope for. The granite rocks do in fact range in age from more than ofur billion years old to being created right now.The compositions of the rocks indicate their age and to some degree the origin of the matrial from which the rocks solidified.
