Mount St. Helens, Living Laboratory for 40 Years

Tim Clarey, Ph.D., and Frank Sherwin, M.A.
Nothing put a damper on uniformitarianism like the Mount St. Helens eruption on May 18, 1980. That explosion still echoes through the halls of the scientific establishment 40 years later. For nearly 150 years prior to the eruption, strict uniformitarianism reigned supreme in geology.

Take your pick.
Trees look like that place in Russia that had the big blast back around 1910.
Yes I remember that old man named Harry Truman. Not to be confused with President Harry Truman. He was convinced that the mountain would never erupt.
He died on his beloved Mount Saint Helens. Since he was such an old man perhaps he would not have wanted to be anywhere else who knows.
You missed the point:
“The whole point of creation science is to justify a 4000 year old Earth. Taking evidence of regional catastrophic geology and extrapolating it to cover the entire earth is stupid science.”
Not if the entire earth is suffering catastrophic geologic upheaval-
Now that’s the point!

Same thing with Nagasaki.....it was LUSH with trees and growth!! God creates beautifully!
I remember reading the Oregonian a day or two after the eruption. A geologist was quoted as saying we had just witnessed 10,000 years of geological change in a single day.
fishtank: "The rapid sedimentation, flood, log mat in Spirit Lake, canyons, etc were the after-effects of the volcano, not the volcano itself."
The basic claim here is that geologists don't know their science well enough to tell the difference between sediments laid down rapidly in floods or other catastrophes versus those deposited slowly over millions of years in lake or sea bottoms.
That claim is false.
Yet ICR can't point us to any of these studies showing rapid deposition is "the norm".
Curious.
When Krakatoa lit off, it was heard for well over a thousand miles in all directions. Though that was mostly overwater, where sound propagates very efficiently.
