Fossils are dated by the layer of sediment they are in (based upon one man's conception of a Geological column)

One man's?!

[DittoJed2]

One man postulated the current column, a column which is only theory I might add and has never been observed in nature. Have you studied Mt. St. Helens and the Grand Canyon in detail to see how they were formed? There is no possible way the Colorado river formed the latter, but the former gives clues how a canyon could form very very quickly.
