No.7 (Read in this order) Mysteries of History Revealed Part 1 Chapter 1 Pages 32-42

The Devonian trilobite Phacops rana is commonly found fossilized three dimensionally unflattened and enrolled in limestone, like the common garden pill bug today. Other trilobites in shale are usually flattened. They roll themselves into a ball when they are in danger. Sow or pillbugs are not insects, all these are arthropods a form of crustacean.
As for the human tracks found on trilobites here at Antelope Springs, they are most likely fracture anomalies, because this is a marine deposit with no terrestrial fossils. These animals are deep water species. Also, the two humanoid impressions were in loose black shale. To prove a track is genuine requires two or three impressions.

NO EVIDENCE OF TRILOBITE PREDATORS

Evolutionists claim that these exoskeletons are molts. If they are molts, or if they are dead trilobites, scavengers would eat them. In fact, when animals molt they eat their own molts for recycled nutrition, which they need or they will die. I have seen hundreds of thousands of these trilobites and billions of parts and I have never seen even a single nibble on them! They are always complete parts or complete exoskeletons. This proves they did not die naturally.Also, some are preserved with soft parts proving they none of them are molts.

Also trilobite trackways have been found elsewhere in some underwater surface layers showing they were walking around.

It is common to find Eocene fish fossils in the Wyoming Green River Formation showing no signs of predation, but they do show signs of suffocation with their pectoral fins outstretched, and their mouths wide open gasping for air.

 Notice the wide open mouth and extended dorsal fin. This shows the fish was suffocating in the heavy silt.
 Another with its mouth open.
 Mouth open and its pectoral fin extended showing suffocation.

Another with dorsal fin extended and mouth open. Fossil fish are commonly found in this condition. These fossils were deposited as the water receded after the Flood leaving them in Post Flood lakes. 

Also, several fossil carnivorous fish Diplomystu  have been found trying to swallow the more common smaller herbivorous fish Knightia (This fish is a fossil herring) in this same deposit, found above the dinosaur deposits over many states with no dinosaurs. This deposit appears to be a remnant of the water left behind after the flood that buried the dinosaurs below them.

Here are a few fossil fish swallowing fish showing they were buried alive in the thick silt that formed the shale.





As for Flood deposits, I remember a photo of a three dimensional fish in nodules from the Cretaceous Santana Formation in Brazil some with a half swallowed smaller fish hanging out of its mouth. Fossils in this deposit are not flattened like typical fish and leaf fossils in shale.

This is not the one I am referring to which I saw in a book. It is another one from the same Cretaceous Santana Formation in Brazil.This deposit includes at least one pterodactyl flying reptile found in the stomach of a fish, so this identifies it as a deposit during the Flood event, possibly during the early stages of the receding Flood waters. And indicates that the other fossil fish above mainly from the Green River Post-Flood Eocene are later Flood runoff remnants.  

Knightia herring are assumed to be extinct in the Eocene; however they look identical to the herring found in identical shale in the Miocene strata all over Orange County and Los Angeles. These fish are Clupeiformes the order of ray-finned fish that includes the herring family, Clupeidae. Since the water runoff from the Colorado River goes from Wyoming to California and other deposits in the Cenozoic appear to be Post-Flood Pleistocene which includes the Eocene, as a creation scientist I suspect that the Eocene fish deposit in Wyoming is part of the Miocene fish deposit in California! And an identical fossil fish deposit is found in three sites in Lebanon, one of these is a Cretaceous Late Flood deposit, the others are Post-Flood.

BuriedTreasureFossils.com states the Wyoming fish, “The Diplomystus was a carnivorous fish which feed on the Knightia based on many examples found inside their stomachs.”

By the way, from the Flood deposit of Cretaceous three dimensional fossil fish in Brazil there is a pterodactyl, the small flying reptile, found in the stomach of one large fish.
Maisey, J.G., Rutzky, I., Blum, S. & W. Elvers (1991): Laboratory Preparation Techniques. In Maisey, j:G. (ed): Santana Fossils: An Illustrated Atlas, Tfh Pubns Inc.ISBN 0866225498. pp 99–103tell us,

In the lower Cretaceous strata, “The Santana Formation earns the designation of Lagerstätte due to an exceedingly well preserved and diverse fossil faunal assemblage. Some 25 species of fossil fishes are often found with stomach contents preserved, enabling paleontologists to study predator-prey relationships in this ecosystem. There are also fine examples of pterosaurs, reptiles and amphibians, invertebrates (particularly insects), and plants. Even dinosaurs are represented…”

The fact that aquatic animals are always found in terrestrial deposits with terrestrial animals further confirms that all fossils were buried by water and mud flows of volcanic ash mixed sediment, Bentonite.

One of these insects is my favorite, because I raise crickets as pets. The photo of this cricket shows it has not evolved since the Cretaceous supposedly 92 million years ago according to evolution speculation. A cricket usually lives less than one year, although if they can find a warm house, or better, someone to make them a home and provide warmth, water and food, their life span can be lengthened. Since they reach maturity and start laying eggs in 3 months that means there have been 276 million generations since this fossil cricket.

This is a typical domestic cricket like I raise in my terrarium.


  And below is a fossil cricket from the same Cretaceous Santana Formation as the fish. Notice it has not evolved they are identical after uncounted generations. 

 And here is another.



Looking at cricket’s generation after generation for 8 years I saw no changes in them. And comparing the fossil cricket to mine, I see no discernable difference! This is one of the observations that have plagued paleontologists; it is called stasis, no change. They have noted sudden appearances of new organisms in the fossil record, and stasis afterwards. I made the same observations Marble Mountains trilobite site in a lecture at Loma Linda University, and pointed it out to a militant evolutionist, who refused to accept it. Later, I heard other scientists including Dr. Stephen J. Gould had observed this fact. I showed the evolutionist that the trilobites at Marble Mountains suddenly appear in the red shale over limestone, then remain the same to the top of the strata, then disappear. The only differences were size sorting; at different sites on the mountain. Also, different layers sometimes have larger or smaller specimens. This shows deposition sorting by moving water.


MACRO NOR MICRO EVOLUTION PRODUCES CHANGE

The fossil record shows no change over time (no transitional fossils). The rock record has organisms that are either extinct which are totally different from those living today, or they are identical. This evidence has falsified macro evolution of slime to man, simple to complex. As for micro evolution, which has been called adaptation, I have found that even though some creation scientists have accepted it, I have found that all of these hybrids are produced by man. For example, different kinds of dogs, cats, cows, horses, etc. These hybrids are not observed in nature. However, some kinds survive in different environments, and others do not.

TERRESTRIAL FOSSILS SURROUNDED BY AQUATIC FOSSILS

Common articulated freshwater Unio clams, are found all around dinosaur fossils, in Utah and Arizona, and elsewhere that I observed. The same fact was noted by Cummins, R., 1994, Taphonomic processes in modern freshwater molluscan death assemblages: implications for the freshwater fossil record: Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology,Palaeoecology, vol. 108, pp. 55–73.)

SOFT TISSUE PRESERVATION IS COMMON IN FOSSILS

I first noticed the fact that some fossil bones are preserved when I saw chalk on a dinosaur bone fragment I had, and also when I discovered that a marine reptile flipper carpel bone I had still smelled like real bone when wet. Mary Anning in the early 1800s England discovered a fossil with an intact eye ring which still had the original eye color. In Lebanon an octopus fossil still had visible ink.

Hillary Mayell for National Geographic News March 24, 2005 T-rex Soft Tissue Found Preserved says,
"To my knowledge, preservation to this extent—where you still have original flexibility and transparency—has not been noted in dinosaurs before, so we're pretty excited by the find," said Mary H. Schweitzer, a paleontologist at North Carolina State University in Raleigh.”
Since then it has been found that it is fairly common. In fact, they have found by closer observation that there is still the ruminants of skin and internal organs still preserved with some original cells in and around what was believed to be only skeletons of dinosaurs, as well as collagen in the bones!
Nature News Apr 30, 2009 and June 14, 2011.  Paleontologist Ed Yong – found Age-defying dinosaur collagen protein in fossilized Hadrosaur bone...  For some mysterious reason these articles were removed from the Internet.

CARBON 14 PROVES DINOSAURS ARE ONLY THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLD

Often amateurs among the public will say that Carbon 14 proves dinosaurs are millions of years old. They don’t realize that Carbon 14 only dates recent archaeological organic substances that are thousands of years old. Carbon 14 has a half life of 5,730 years, and can date only organic carbon substances up to 58 to 62 thousand years using the new AMS method. After that it is totally gone. Other methods like uranium are used to date volcanic rocks in millions of years.

A researcher, Hugh Miller works with a group of scientists who are finding Carbon 14 in most dinosaur bones from all over the world. See their published paper below. They have been dating dinosaur bones using Carbon 14 dating methods which give them an average date of 40 thousand years, the age of the Pleistocene asphalt seeps in L.A. according to evolutionists. The fact is there should be NO Carbon 14 left to detect if they are millions of years old. Even these Carbon 14 ages have been stretched because of the increase in incoming cosmic rays over time. Thus the dates have to be corrected to about 5 thousand years old; the date of the Flood of Noah.

ORGANIC MOLECULES ARE LIKE RADIOACTIVE SUBSTANCES THEY BREAK DOWN OVER TIME
Organic remains are similar to radioactive substances in that they breakdown over time, and can be used to give a relative date. And observation proves these substances only last thousands of years not millions.
www.varchive.org/ce/c14.htm‎ Suess explained the phenomenon by the fact that the increased industrial use of carbon effects dating... it is claimed that the influx of cosmic rays varied over time also.

www.nasa.gov/topics/solarsystem/features/ray_surge.html‎
Sep 28, 2009 - "In 2009, cosmic ray intensities have increased 19% beyond anything we've seen in the past 50 years," says Richard Mewaldt of Caltech.
In 1952 W. F. Libby invented Carbon 14 dating for recent organic archaeological finds then:
“But as the method was refined, it started to show rather regular anomalies. First, it was noticed that, when radiocarbon dated, wood grown in the 20th century appears more ancient than wood grown in the 19th century. Suess explained the phenomenon by the fact that the increased industrial use of fossil carbon in coal and in oil changed the ratio between the dead carbon C12 and the C14 (radiocarbon) in the atmosphere and therefore also in the biosphere.”

A fact evolutionists do not consider is, that after the Flood the atmospheric shield collapsed allowing an increase in Cosmic rays increasing the radioactive Carbon 14 which had been screened out before the Flood. Also, there appears to have been a burst of radiation during the Post-Flood Pleistocene Dryas.

Paleontologists have been puzzled by the survival of collagen and soft tissue in many dinosaur bones because, like radioactive decay, collagen and soft flesh cannot survive for millions of years. It breaks down at a known rate. A group of researchers have found the answer. The bones are not 65 million years old, or older. Carbon-14 (C-14) dating of multiple samples of bone from 8 dinosaurs from Texas, Alaska, Colorado, and Montana revealed that they are only 22 to 39 thousand years old. Since dinosaurs are thought to be over 65 million years old, the news is stunning. The atheistic evolutionists cannot accept this fact, but cannot disprove it either. After this information was presented at the AOGS-AGU conference in Singapore, the abstract was removed from the conference website by two chairmen because they could not accept the findings. Unwilling to challenge the data, they erased the report from public view without a word to the authors or even to the AOGS officers, until an investigation was started. The abstract won't be restored till the investigation is completed. Which means never.

CORRECTING CARBON-14 DATES

Creation scientists have discovered that dinosaurs date to the time of the Flood about 5 thousand years ago using Carbon 14. How can dinosaurs be only 5 thousand years old, if this method dates them as at least 23 thousand? Dinosaur bones are dated by Carbon 14 at an average of between 23 and 40 thousand years. For Carbon 14 to be accurate it must have reached a constant, equilibrium. The atmosphere must contain the same amount of radioactive Carbon today as it did in the past, but it does not. Today it is increasing due to nuclear weapons testing and factories releasing carbon into the atmosphere. And the ancient atmosphere had less due to the vapor shield before the Flood. PhysicsWorld.com says the Carbon clock could be wrong. Also, if the earth was covered by water as the Bible says, it would cause an increase in Carbon 14 from the atmosphere. These facts would result in age determinations to be too high.

Another factor involving Carbon-14 is the fact that the magnetic field of the earth has been decreasing, which means in the past it was stronger and
deflected more cosmic rays which strike Nitrogen 14 to form radioactive Carbon 14 in the atmosphere. This would also inflate the age.

Secular scientist David Lowe (1989), "Problems associated with the use of coal as a source of C14-free background material". Official journal:
Radiocarbon 31 (2): 117–120.

“Most man-made chemicals are made of fossil fuels, such as petroleum or coal, in which the carbon-14 should have long since decayed. However, such deposits often contain trace amounts of carbon-14 (varying significantly, but ranging up to 1% the ratio found
in living organisms, a concentration comparable to an apparent age of 40,000).”

There should be no background radiation found in dinosaurs, and other fossils millions of years old. This residual radiation is explained away as background radiation is false, it is simply an ad hoc explanation for radiation that should not exist. This is the same results creation scientists are getting from dinosaur bones and other fossils and confirms they are right. Any traces of Carbon 14 should not exist, unless the specimen is only thousands of years old!

PROOF DINOSAURS ARE THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLD
The researchers presented their findings at the 2012 Western Pacific Geophysics meeting in Singapore, August 13-17, 2012, a conference of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) and the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society (AOGS).
Carbon-dating dinosaur bones www.newgeology.us/Dinosaur% 20bones%20dated%20by%20Carbon-1...‎ Dinosaur bones have been dated by radiocarbon (Carbon-14) http://www.dinosaurc14ages.com/carbondating.htm.
Carbon-14 has to be corrected by known increases in Carbon 14 and 12, however, it is the most reliable radioactive dating method known, better than Carbon 14s accuracy as a technique has been verified by using C-14 to date some historical artifacts accurately, whose age is known. Other methods like Potassium-argon, Rubidium-strontium, Uranium-thorium, etc. have been used to date samples from Mt Saint Helens known to be from the May 18, 1980 eruption and they come back dated as millions of years old!
The big difference between Carbon 14 dating and other radioactive dating methods dates organic matter, while all the other methods date only volcanic rock that is found with, or lava above or below the fossil being dated.

The fact that they use these methods which require volcanic rocks to date the rocks proves volcanic upheaval is always found in relation to fossils.
Carbon 14 only dates organic matter and has a half life of 5,730 plus/minus 40 years. 

Radioactive carbon 14 can be dated back to 40 to 50 thousand years old. The new AMS method pushes it back to a limit of 58 to 62 thousand years. All other methods date volcanic rock in millions of years. The recent dates of radioactive carbon can be checked against historical dates. But the other methods all date in millions of years and cannot be checked. But when older methods are used on radioactive volcanic rock from recent eruptions the method always dates the sample as millions of years old proving they are totally useless for dating, and are only used to give credibility to preconceived evolutionary dates!

SECULAR RESEARCH AGREES WITH CREATION SCIENCE RESULTS

Researchers at the University of North Carolina published research in The Earth: An Introduction to Physical Geology by Tarbuck & Lutgens, pp. 55-57, (1987).

“We see that there are at least two kinds of magma, and Uranium and Thorium get carried along in silica rich magma rather than in basaltic magma. This represents major fractionation. Of course, any process that tends to concentrate or deplete uranium or thorium relative to lead would have an influence on the radiometric ages computed by uranium-lead or thorium-lead dating. Also, the fact that there are two kids of magma could mean that the various radiometric ages are obtained by mixing of these kinds of magma in different proportions, and do not represent true ages at all.”

“There are quite a number of mechanisms in operation in a magma chamber. I count at least three so far -- sorting by density, sorting by melting point, and sorting by how easily something is incorporated into minerals that form at the top of a magma chamber. Then you have to remember that sometimes one has repeated melting and solidification, introducing more complications. There is also a fourth mechanism -- differences in solubility. How anyone can keep track of this all is a mystery to me, especially with the difficulties encountered in exploring magma chambers. These will be definite factors that will change relative concentrations of parent and daughter isotopes in some way, and call into question the reliability of radiometric dating. In fact, I think this is a very telling argument against radiometric dating.”

“Another possibility to keep in mind is that lead becomes gaseous at low temperatures, and would be gaseous in magma if it were not for the extreme pressures deep in the earth. It also becomes very mobile when hot. These processes could influence the distribution of lead in magma chambers.”

These conclusions support my observations that the predominate rhyolitic volcanic ash in the Mesozoic strata, would date older than predominate Cenozoic basaltic volcanic ash because of its composition rather than its age!

CONFERENCE CONFIRMS RESULTS AND SKEPTICS SURPRESS THE INFORMATION

Dr. Thomas Seiler, a physicist from Germany, gave the presentation at the conference of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) and the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society (AOGS) in Singapore on the C-14 dating of dinosaur bones.

He says that his team and the laboratories they employed took special care to avoid contamination. That included protecting the samples, avoiding cracked areas in the dinosaur bones, and meticulous pre-cleaning of the samples with chemicals to remove contaminants. Knowing that small concentrations of collagen can attract contamination, they compared precision Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) tests of collagen and bioapatite (hard carbonate bone mineral) with conventional counting methods of large bone fragments from the same dinosaurs. “Comparing such entirely different molecules as minerals and organics from the same bone region, we obtained concordant C-14 signals which were well below the upper limits of C-14 dating. These, together with many other remarkable signal concordances between samples from different fossils, geographic regions and stratigraphic positions make random contamination as origin of the C-14 signals unlikely”, he notes.  “If dinosaur bones are 65 million years old, there should not be one atom of C-14 left in them.”

SECULAR PALEONTOLGIST CONFIRMS DINOSAUR FLESH PRESERVED IN PETRIFIED FOSSILS 

newgeology.us/presentation48.html‎
Many dinosaur bones are not fossilized. Dr. Mary Schweitzer, associate professor of marine, earth, and atmospheric sciences at North Carolina State University states,...

“Many dinosaur bones are not fossilized. Dr. Mary Schweitzer, associate professor of marine, earth, and atmospheric sciences at North Carolina State University, surprised scientists in 2005 when she reported finding soft tissue in dinosaur bones. She started a firestorm of controversy in 2007 and 2008 when she reported that she had sequenced proteins in the (T-rex) dinosaur bone. Critics charged that the findings were mistaken or that what she called soft tissue was really biofilm produced by bacteria that had entered from outside the bone. Schweitzer answered the challenge by testing with antibodies. Her report in 2009 confirmed the presence of collagen and other proteins that bacteria do not make. Also in 2009, the team of Dr. Phil Wilby discovered a fossilized squid that contained a sac of ink so well-preserved that it could be used in a pen for writing, found in rock that is considered to be 150 million years old (Note: Late Jurassic dinosaur strata). In 2011, a Swedish team found soft tissue and biomolecules in the bones of a Mosasaur, a large marine reptile that swam in shallow ocean waters. Schweitzer herself has no explanation of how these organic materials could survive when they should be totally degraded. That is, if they are over 65 million years old.”

Carbon-14 “…combined with the discovery of soft tissue indicate that something is very wrong.”

The AOGS-AGU assembly claims they encourage the presentation of reliable data even though the topic may be controversial. “ This is a very wise policy for the advancement of science and the education of people everywhere" agreed Dr. Jean de Pontcharra, one of ten co-authors and an atomic physicist recently retired from the Grenoble Research Center of the French Atomic Energy Commission, and Professor Dr. Robert Bennett, physicist and coauthor.  "Thus, we encourage our colleagues to do their own carbon dating of dinosaur bones from museums and university fossil repositories around the world, as well as testing for C-14 in scrapings from dinosaur bones as they are excavated. We are anxious to see their results presented, just as we have done.” This is the policy of science, to test and retest results to confirm or refute results. And sometimes the freedom of speech and the press has to be called in. “Also, we call on the news media and citizens everywhere to urge paleontologists, curators, university faculty, and government scientific agencies to encourage and support further testing for C-14 content in dinosaur remains. Scientists need to know the actual chronology of the Earth and the age of the fossils."

In spite of this, the results were removed from their web site.

DINOSAUR DEPOSITS CONTAIN SALT FROM THE OCEAN
Owl Rock Member of the Chinle Formation consists of pinkish-orange mudstones (Note: Feldspar) mixed with hard, thin layers of limestone. Lenses of selenite gypsum are scattered periodically throughout the Owl Rock Member representing the minerals left behind after evaporation of inland lakes from marine salt water incursions.

 The photo above shows the different Formations: Navajo, Kayenta, Wingate all Early Jurassic, Chinle Upper Triassic, Moenkopi Lower Triassic. All this sandstone is crossbeded by changing currents of water and contain only pristine tracks of dinosaurs and unidentified reptiles and ripples and mud cracks on temporary surfaces. These animals are often being pushed by currents sideways from their direction of travel. These are identical to supposed older Permian tracks of supposed unidentified reptiles, and the evidence indicates they are part of this same formation missdated by evolutionists. Notice the flat layers without significant erosion. Only the Chinle contains body fossils freshwater clams as steinkerns (internal molds) of freshwater bivalve shellfish called Unio clams and petrified bones dinosaurs and other reptiles. I have found many of these near Tuba City.

This is typical Chinle Formation which often forms mounds of unconsolidated volcanic mixed water deposited sediment colored by iron and other volcanic minerals called montmoritllonite or bentonite. It contains a few body fossils unlike the crossbeded sandstone above it which contains only pristine trackways.

“These inland lakes were left behind when the oceans covered the land leaving behind mineral evaporates like gypsum, and salt.

“Continental trace fossils (Note: ichnofossils or tracks) from the Petrified Forest Member of the Upper Triassic Chinle Formation in Petrified Forest National Park (PEFO), Arizona, were made by beetles, termites, soil arthropods, horseshoe crabs, and crayfish.”

Wikipedia says,

“Horseshoe crabs (family Limulidae, order Xiphosura or Xiphosurida) are arthropods that live primarily in and around shallow ocean waters.”


When I was in the Petrified Forest I discovered a piece of gypsum, which I recognized because I had found a lot of it in Orange County Miocene fossil sites which were marine. This indicated to me the ocean had been here when these logs were deposited. Then I heard that a horseshoe crab fossil had been found in the Petrified Forest which confirmed my suspicions.

Here is interesting information that indicates the Petrified Forests are massive Flood deposits.

www.geo.mtu.edu/  This is from a research project from Michigan Technological University

“You measured and described one gypsum layer. There are five more gypsum layers within the Michigan Formation in this area.
These are salts. If a 1000' deep ocean in an arid area were to completely dry up, it would precipitate about 16' of evaporates.

It will precipitate gypsum when enough water has evaporated to reduce it to 1/3 its original volume. Sea water reduced to 1/10 its original volume will precipitate halite (Note: Salt crystals). If sea water evaporates completely, 83% of the precipitated evaporates will be halite (NaC1), 4% will be gypsum and the remainder will consist of other evaporates.”

USGS on line data tells us about the Mississippian ‘age’ Michigan Formation referred to above:

“Thicknesses of 91 to 122 m are more typical. Although generally composed of greenish gray and dark gray shale, this formation is lithologically variable and includes discontinuous beds of sandstone, limestone, dolostone, gypsum, and anhydrite. One of these carbonate beds, called the "Brown Lime," is a 3- to 6-m thick dolostone that can be traced in the subsurface across much of the basin.”

This evidence proves a lot of hot volcanic ocean water covered the land and evaporated leaving mineral salts behind.

FLOOD/POST-FLOOD UNCONFORMITY
Returning to the Arizona Petrified Forest let’s look at the Post-Flood Bidahochi Formation found on top of the Flood deposited Chinle Formation described in the National Park Service brochure. This was deposited after the Flood in lakes left behind by the receding ocean water:
“During the Late Miocene and Early Pliocene Epochs of the Neogene Period (4-8 million years ago) a large lake basin with ephemeral lakes covered much of Northeastern Arizona. Fine-grained fluvial (flowing) and lacustrine (lake related) sediment such as silt, clay, and sand represent the lower part of the Bidahochi Formation. Volcanoes, both nearby and as far as the Southwestern Nevada Volcanic field, spewed ash and lava over the land and into the basin. Many of the volcanoes were phreatomagmatic, when ground or lake-water mingled with eruptive material (magma) to cause explosive eruptions.”
 This is an illustration of the huge lake left behind after the Flood of Noah which produced a Post-Flood layer on top of the Flood layer.
This is how that layer is found on top of the Flood boundary unconformaty in Arizona.  There is 192 million years missing between these two layers. Do you see a lot of erosion? Where are the Grand Canyons?
This is describing the Post-Flood volcanic upheavals on top of the Flood deposits. The deposits below are mostly rhyolitic and colorful, and those on top after the Flood are tan or grey basaltic ash.

Most of these petrified fossil sites are created by rhyolitic magmas at the beginning of the Flood upheaval, which have higher gas and water content than basaltic magmas which contain more iron and thus rhyolitic lava is more explosive since gas under pressure is kept as a liquid deep in the earth, then explodes into a gas as it nears the surface. The rainbow colors of most Flood created fossil sites and the most typical of this is the Morrison dinosaur Formation, indicate these were violent rhyolitic eruptions.
A rare rhyolitic volcanic caldera today is found at Lake Taupo, in the centre of New Zealand’s North Island. This huge volcano has produced two of the world’s most violent eruptions in geologically recent times. This supports the conclusion that eruptions just before and during the Flood were much more explosive than those today. Rhyolitic eruptions are common in the fossil record, but rare in Post-Flood historical times. I believe this is evidence that they were part of the fountains of the deep, when the earth had much more water stored inside it than it does today, and the lava came from shallower chambers beneath the surface.
Only three eruptions of rhyolite have been recorded since the 20th century—the eruptions were at the St. Andrew Strait Volcano in Papua New Guinea, Novarupta Volcano in Alaska United States, and Chaiten in Southern Chile.

MISSING STRATA IN THE PETRIFIED FOREST

Between the Bidahochi Formation and the Chinle Formation there is 192 million years of missing strata, if evolution were true. However, the contact shows an unconformity contact that is rough showing it was a surface, but is almost level compared to canyons and rivers today. The large valleys like the Grand Canyon itself formed by erosion in this area were all formed more recently long after the Flood by huge amounts of moving water from huge lakes through breached damns, long after all the flat rock strata had been deposited during the Flood event. We see nothing like these canyons and valleys in the geologic record. So the present is not the key to the past, or does it show the 192 million years does not exist?


The Geological Society of America Bulletin - Isotopic age of the Black Forest Bed, Petrified Forest Member, Chinle Formation, Arizona: An example of dating continental sandstone  By N.R. Riggs, S.R. Ash, A.P. Barth, G.E. Gehrels and J.L. Wooden Accepted 17 April 2003.
“Volcanic detritus in the Chinle Formation was derived from multiple, distinct sources. Coarse pebble- to cobble-size material may have originated in eastern California and/or western Arizona, where Triassic plutons are exposed. Fine-grained detritus, in contrast, was carried in ash clouds that derived from caldera eruptions in east-central California or western Nevada.”
This was a very large explosive volcanic eruption when water explodes into steam. Some of these volcanoes were probably in our Mojave Desert where there are lots of recent volcanoes and black basalt flows. They were caused by the movement of the continents away from the mid Atlantic Ridge during and for many ears after the Flood, the Bible’s description matches the Mid Atlantic Ridge as part of the fountains of the deep. Many of these volcanoes that erupted during the Flood started erupting after the Flood, in the Cenozoic into the Pleistocene about the time of Babel and Peleg approximately 2500 BC and caused mountain chains to rise again after being eroded as the Flood receded.
 This is one of the many basaltic Pleistocene volcanoes in the Mojave desert. There were mammoths and bison antiquis and Clovis people living here when they erupted during Peleg's division.
 This is one of the volcanic craters formed by underground water explosions during Peleg's division and plate subduction around the ring of fire in the Pacific ocean. I hiked down to the bottom and found an artifact, a pistil used in mortars to grind seeds by natives. I thought that it might be a misidentified meteorite crater. But it served to prove objective science. I found no meteorites like at Odessa Texas and Meteor Crater Arizona. Only evidence of volcanic minerals and one out of place granite rock pestle.
Now you might say maybe there were several eruptions over millions of years. Well then where are the unconformities containing canyons and river valleys between these layers? There are no unconformities in Chinle, much less canyons like we see in the present surface, except the minor one between the Bidahochi and the Chinle! In the Chinle there are only changes in color. The unconformity above the Chinle is because the Bidahochi is a Post-Flood formation, when breached dams of huge Pleistocene inland lakes caused flooding over about 100 to 1000  years after the Flood, forming the Post Flood Grand Canyon in strata formed during the Flood.

“The Pliocene to Late Neogene Bidahochi Formation, lies at an elevation of about 6,300 feet (1,920 m) to 6,600 feet (2,012 m) at the southeast of the Colorado Plateau; the deposits are from Bidahochi Lake, (also called Hopi Lake), and the deposits extend southwards to the region at the north perimeter of the White Mountains of central-east Arizona. Bidahochi Lake is thought to have been a single "large lake, or several shallow, and ephemeral ones."] Various fossil types are found; also bird trackways.”

This type of deposit is common for the Post Flood as the salty marine water receded; it left huge salty lakes, which lasted hundreds of years being kept full by huge torrential post Flood rains, which secular archaeologists call the pluvial period. Fossil leaves, fish, reptiles, freshwater shellfish, birds, bird tracks, and feathers are common in this type of limy shale. This deposit is similar to Orange County Miocene, and the Eocene Green River Formation in Wyoming, and one in Lebanon. I have found all of these to be incorrectly dated and are all part of the Post-Flood Period and could all be considered Pleistocene. In Florida the bones of Pleistocene camels, etc. are mixed with Miocene sharks, whales, and marine shellfish that are supposed to be millions of years older.

The Chinle appears to be one continuous event with only a little erosion, not 192 million years separating it from the Bidahochi.

PROOF GRAND CANYON IS RECENT

Even the Grand Canyon was formed during the recent Pleistocene according to secular geologists. Hopi Lake or Lake Bidahochi, mentioned above was the one that breached its damn and formed the Grand Canyon in weeks not millions of years as it cut its way to the Gulf of Mexico some time after the Flood. Of course the canyon has nothing to do with the age of the strata in the canyon, which evolutionists say started forming during the Pre-Cambrian, supposedly 2 billion years ago. Evidence of flat strata with no major erosion surfaces indicates it was one event, or events not far apart. Proof from secular geology that the formation of the canyon is a separate event is given below, and is not part of the ancient strata it cut through. It describes the breached damn which formed the canyon.
Price, L. Greer (1999). Geology of the Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon, Arizona: Grand Canyon Association. ISBN 0-938216-68-6 Page 58.

“From 5.5 million to 5 million years ago, headward erosion to the north and east consolidated these streams into one major river and associated tributary channels.” Then they started to down cut forming the canyon.

This is Lake Bidahochi. Of course there are some evolutionists who don't want to give up the millions of years for the formation of the Grand Canyon and claim this lake was only a shallow ephemeral lake. But they cannot deny that a large canyon like the Grand Canyon does not form by a little water over a long period of time. It would form a shallow ditch not a wide canyon.

Evolutionists always try to explain their way out of evidence against their theory; they claim it took a little water a long time to cut the canyon; however, when a breached damn happens it produces a canyon rapidly.

The deposit it made during the cutting of the canyon is found in the lower Colorado trough in the Gulf of Mexico which is called the Bouse Formation found in Arizona, California, and Nevada. Most of this deposit is in the Anza Borrego Desert. It contains Miocene/Pliocene freshwater mollusks, similar to Orange/Los Angeles County’s Miocene deposits.This deposit spilled over into the Los Angeles/Orange County basin.
 This is the Pleistocene Bouse Formation produced by the run off of sediment from the Grand Canyon going from Wyoming to the Golf of Mexico after the Flood of Noah during the Pleistocene during the breached damn period. And it contains no dinosaurs or other Flood deposits, only Post-Flood Pleistocene mammals at the time of Peleg's Division.
Here is a map of Pleistocene mammal and marine deposits. The marine Imperial Formation is found in much of Southern California.

When paleontologist Dr.Robert E. Reynolds of the San Bernardino County Museum led us on a field trip to the Bouse Formation in Nevada he took us to a small museum which had bones from a Pleistocene elephant on display from the Bouse Formation found in gravel. The biggest mystery he told us was, geologists were puzzled by the fact that most of the alluvium from the Grand Canyon was missing! The Bouse Formation was pitifully small and it did not contain dinosaurs.

Another mystery is how the river cut through the Colorado plateau which is higher ground. This is also true in other places like the Santa Ana River going from Riverside to Orange County in California cutting through the Santa Ana Mountains. Since we know that some mountains rose after the flood during Peleg's Division from geologic observation and evidence when the flood water left the dry land from the creation viewpoint, it appears that the runoff cut down through mountains and plateaus or blocks of rising land as they rose during and after the Flood. This may have taken hundreds of years of runoff, and included occasional flash floods from breached damns from lakes of trapped ocean water, and glacial melting through soft volcanic ash.

I have observed slickensides (rock cracking and sliding under pressure producing slick polished surfaces) in all forms of rock, which sometimes contain lava flows show the mountain forming orogeny upheavals were huge mega earthquakes, and not slow movements of rising mountains over millions of years. Also, rocks bend like plastic before they harden into solid rock, and this also happens when solid rocks are moved slowly, only rapid movement of solidified rock cracks them with slick surfaces. It is said that they are fault polished rock, but I have seen them in all rocks, not just near faults. Slickensides do not form slowly.
This is a picture of a slickenside where rock has slid over rock as mountains were upthrust after the Flood.
All over Riverside, California I have observed cracks in the granite that are filled with lighter colored rock that filled in the cracks. This light colored rock is quartz which hardens slower at lower temperatures than the surrounding granite. These intrusive quartz veins could not form slowly over millions of years or they would not remain hot enough to flow into the cracks and then they would form crystals. This is the same granite found in the mountain barriers in California. Evolutionists claim the granite is Jurassic, actually all granite is basement rock created during creation week, then it got upthrust during the Flood when the Mesozoic strata was deposited, and again after being eroded flat as the Flood receded, rose again after the Flood and during another catastrophic event or events.

During my research into the writing of the paper on the asphalt seeps at La Brea I discovered that the Miocene and Pleistocene sediment was upwarped along the Santa Monica Mountains as they rose. There are mountain barriers the length of California separating the higher deserts from the coastal plane.

HUGE FLOODS FROM DESERT LAKES INTO COSTAL CALIFORNIA

I have observed masses of loose sand, rocks, and boulders sorted all along
the mountain barriers called the Santa Ynez Mountains, the Tehachapi Mountains, the San Gabriel Mountains, the San Bernardino Mountains, the San Jacinto Mountains, and the Santa Rosa Mountains. The rocks are sorted from large to small determined by their distance and speed of the flowing water that deposited them. Many are huge boulders requiring huge amounts of rapidly moving water coming from the Mojave Desert that appears to have been a huge lake at one time.



MOST FOSSIL ANIMALS WERE BURIED ALIVE!

Some fossils like the Flood deposited Jurassic Berlin Archaeopteryx show they were alive when they fell into this bentonite (volcanic ash mixed with water altered sediment) mud which turned into shale similar to the Post-Flood California and Wyoming fossil fish beds, moving its wings, leaving movement smear lines in the feather impressions near the muscles in the shale.

In the Gobi desert Cretaceous strata, a small Veloceraptor dinosaur was found entangled with a Protoceratops dinosaur, actively fighting when they were buried alive.

The discovery of these dinosaur nests created the false myth that the Veloceraptor was an egg predator, thus, the name, “Egg Stealer.”
Paleontologists have made a lot of gross errors. But there is one thing that the evolutionists will swear too that can never be falsified – evolution is a fact of science! When facts conflict, with theory; they support the theory. The eggs turned out to be Veloceraptor!

Polygamy, Paternal Care In Birds Linked To Dinosaur Ancestors...
www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/.../081218141734.ht...
Science Daily Dec 19, 2008 - Sure, they're polygamous, but male emus and
several other ground-dwelling birds also are devoted dads, serving as the sole incubators... Science News Dec. 19, 2008 gives us a fascinating look into the past in their article, from a paper, written by paleobiologist Gregory M. Erickson above of The Florida State University and other researchers writes,
"In those cases where adult dinosaurs have been found on top of nests, we found that the volume or mass of the egg clutch (total number of eggs in the nest) is very large relative to the size of the nesting animals." 
Notice the evolutionists are interested in their theory of polygamy, and ignore the more significant fact that these dinosaurs were buried alive sitting on the nest! This fact indicates that all dinosaurs worldwide were buried alive!!

These so called nesting sites are made up of common crossbeded red sandstone in Formations called: Navajo, Moenkopi, Coconino, etc. each of which covers thousands of square miles in areas that are found spotted around the world. This same crossbeded red sandstone commonly contains fossilized tracks, dated from the Permian to the Cretaceous and are falsely claimed to be wind blown sand deposits because they have ripples created by flowing water and they are cemented by volcanic silicon which could never happen in a desert sand.

Several ichthyosaur marine reptiles have been found fossilized in the act of giving birth. Dave Smith geologist working in artwork/design and paleontology for the University of California Berkeley Museum of Paleontology, writes in November 7, 2005,
“Rare fossils have been found that show ichthyosaurs actually giving birth to live, well-developed young; ichthyosaurs never had to leave the water to lay eggs. In fact, from their streamlined, fishlike bodies, it seems almost certain that ichthyosaurs could not leave the water. Yet they still breathed air and lacked gills, (they were) like modern whales.”



 This is a mother Ichthyosaur giving birth while being suffocated by volcanic dust. You can see the Fallopian tube in which the baby is being born tail first unlike most reptiles which use eggs.

They are a form of reptilian porpoise. In fact they may have been warm blooded, this would explain how the Loch Ness plesiosaurs can survive in cold water.
Some of these ichthyosaur fossils have recently born babies swimming above the mother, indicating these marine reptiles were slowly suffocated by settling volcanic mud, probably from rock pulverized in explosive volcanic eruptions into fine grained sediment. One was even found giving birth, with the baby coming down the fallopian tube, tail first. The flesh of the fallopian tube and the skin around the ichthyosaur can be seen faintly as a stain in the shale!

X-ray examinations of Devonian slates has shown that soft parts of trilobites have been preserved in the shale, but are invisible to the naked eye!

Un-flattened three dimensional Ordovician Calymene trilobites are commonly found coiled like pill bugs, indicating burial alive while under stress. Trilobites in limestone are usually un-flattened in a living position, un-like the commonly flattened fossils in shale and slate.
 This is a coiled Phacops Rena trilobite prepared for danger which is commonly found.
This is the same animal as it is found normally as a three dimensional fossil in limestone, unlike the flattened ones in shale.

Also, (I know this from personal observation of hundreds of thousands of trilobites) Cambrian trilobites in Utah and the Mojave Desert are usually only complete parts of exoskeletons. Heads (cephalons), main body (thorax), rear end (pygidium), or just their cheeks (genal lobes). And these are sometimes sorted by size. Some parts of the trilobites at Antelope Springs Utah, Marble Mountains in the Mojave Desert California, or from Canada are sorted so only heads or tails can be found in certain areas of the site. At Antelope Springs, Utah I also found different trilobite species were sorted into different areas. Elrathia kingi, and Asaphiscus are the most common at the main quarry area at this site. A mile away Peronopsis, Bathyuriscus are common. This shows sorting by moving water and fine mud.
