Creation ex nihilo and the Earth
Two centuries ago the first scientific geologists realized
that the Earth was much older than the 6,000 years estimated by biblical
scholars. The most compelling early observation was made by James Hutton (1726-1797)
when he visited Siccar Point in Scotland. Hutton and others had already
established that sandstone, limestone, and shale were produced by the
accumulation of sediment in deep basins, and that these formed layers
relatively flat and horizontal to the earth’s surface. What Hutton saw at
Siccar Point was that sediments had filled a marine basin, the sediment had
cemented and compressed (lithified) into sandstones and shale, the resulting
rock mass had been uplifted and tilted nearly 90 degrees and then exposed to
erosion, the eroded massive block then was again submerged becoming the bottom
rock of a new marine basin, which then accumulated new sediments in horizontal
layers or strata, now nearly perpendicular to the older strata. Further, these
later strata also had time to lithify and then the entire mass was again
uplifted, tilted and eroded.
These rock features, called Hutton’s unconformities, can be
found all over the world. Some such as the Grand Canyon Unconformity, document
in rock the tilting of most of North America.
Hutton realized what is now obvious, that these events
could not have occurred in 6,000 years, or as the result of a cataclysmic flood
such as described in Genesis.

Just curious but what does the types of rock have to with ex nihilo.
Evolution also believes the that, "out of nothing" came everything.
The difference is how can life--mind, will, emotions come from inanament matter?
When it is more logical to think, just as a star collapses and creates another star, and we are intelligent, personal beings that must have been created by a greater intelligent,personal being.
The young earth creationist dogma demands that the obvious features of the earth's geology can not exist.
But, we can see with our unaided eyes that there are rock features that could not exist if the young earth creationist cant was true.
The young earth creationists are promoting a false interpretation of the Bible, and refuse to admit this.
"The young earth creationist dogma demands that the obvious features of the earth's geology can not exist.
But, we can see with our unaided eyes that there are rock features that could not exist if the young earth creationist cant was true."
Yet you fail to give one example.
You didn't read this Creation ex nihilo and the earth , did you?
