In that case, keep him away from the hardware, and you should be fine ;)
cooling layers from the bottom!
No evolution---NONE
Oh, man; that's REALLY bad.
Does he wear magnets in front of his eyes for reading glasses?
;-)
Nope.
Ediacaria, Cyclomedusa and Hiemalora were not worms.
I'm surprised you're not quoting John Woodmorappe. He seems like someone you'd be interested in.
Timmy isn't very far away from your cat's weight. I believe the last time he went to the vet, he was about 20 1/2 lbs. This photo was taken about 3 years ago.
Rather quickly too---ruling out the mutation/morph theory!
There were a few weird fossils which never made it to the Cambrian so they are irrelevant to the discussion. As I said, all this Vendian stuff had been discovered by the time that Eldredge and Gould gave up on Darwinian evolution - and for good reason. In fact, the latest major discovery in the field has been the discovery of a vertebrate fish in the Cambrian adding to the number of phyla which have no ancestry before the Cambrian. In other words, the doo doo is getting deeper, not shallower for evolution.
Sedimentary levels in specific-smaller areas can form...miles deep---Where are the sediments derived from? What if the sedimentary layers are thicker than the potential maximum height of the adjacent source area?
but overall the lower sub surface crust and plates formed from the bottom!Seafloor crust is distinctly different from continental crust (basaltic vs granitic in a nutshell). How did seafloor crust get on continental crust in some areas? Why does currently existing seafloor crust consistently date younger than continental crust?
cooling layers from the bottom!How did the outer core reliquify then? Why is the surface cooler than the Asthenosphere?
nothing is totally uniform---
for the appalachians type mountains to form the surface of the earth must have expanded....
via plates breaking up/cracks-shrinking---
width of the crack---width of the mountains---
triangular pointing up!
What plate tuetonics/earthquakes do is mostly unpredictable.
But their formation and the surface/layering is obvious...top first---layering from the bottom!
Only some/little surface layering from above!
Very young---FRESH-new Earth!
but overall the lower sub surface crust and plates formed from the bottom!
Are you familiar with Thermodynamics? Heat does not pass from cooler to warmer. The only circumstance your assertion would allow for would be an earth in which the center was solid and progressivly warmer outward. This is demonstrably not true from seismic, volcanic, and thermal gradients from borings and mines among other things.
the slope--triangle would be inverted---pointing down.
Not enough expansion---'lava' to form mountains!
Matter of 'fact'...the top layers would be the actual layers from the sides of the plate but the lower levels would be fresh layers pushed out from underneath to fill the widening cracks!
The diameter of the earth could be increasing and/or the plates just settling---sinking pushing the material up to form the canyon walls/layering!!
The whole thermodynamics would say they were coming up from lower hotter levels---higher pressures!
