Evidence that falsifies the deposit of the sediment in the Redwall from transport due to high current or "hurricane" like conditions.
http://www.geocities.com/earthhistory/grandb.htm
"Fossils in the Redwall include some primitive cephalopods, Spiriferid brachiopods, corals (Syringopora is common), crinoids, gastropods, bivalves, blastoids, bryozoans, trilobites and trilobite fragments, conodonts, and some foraminifera. McKee and Gutschick, 1969, pp. 104 & 554, describe several layers of in situ mats of calcerous algae within the Redwall. Each of the four members of the Redwall contain unique conodont microfossils which, along with foraminifera, allow Redwall deposition to be correlated with other formations. A conodont named Gnathodes typicus is found in the Whitmore Wash member and not in the other layers. Scoliognathus anchoralis and Dolignathus latus are unique to the Thunder Springs member. Gnathodus texanus is found in the Mooney Falls member only, and the conodont Taphrognathus variarus is limited to the Horseshoe Mesa member."
- in situ mats of algae cannot be transported and deposited due to "hurricane" like mechanisms. They must have grown in place on top of the sediment below them and before the sediment above them was in place (in water shallow enough to allow them sunlight ).
- The presence of unique fossils in each of the 4 layers in the formation point to the sediment coming from different geologic times. How could the distinct layering of unique microfossils (of the same size) be explained with rapid transport of sediment to the area without a single mix-up?
(I hope discussing these observations in the Redwall doesn't make anyone feel uncomfortable. )
Had a look at some of your fossil 'evidence' for raindrops and the tracks of spiders of scorpions. Given the contradictory interpretations of fossils, I did not find this conslusive evidence.
I'd like to hear more about the algae that supposedly grew in the laminae. I guess this is again a geologists obscure inferences from fossils.

Please amplify. What contradictory interpretations are you talking about? If you have an interpretation that shows how raindrop impressions can form on the bottom of the ocean, please illuminate us.

First of all, it's 'as laminae' not 'in laminae'. Now, if you have a better explanation, I'm sure we would all be glad to hear it...

Please provide links that give information on the above. I have browsed the links given previously and didn't see any discussion on the topic.

Here's another topic about a feature that cannot exist if the Earth is 6,000 years old and its sedimentary geology results from a global flooding event several thousand years ago lasting less than one year.
It is surprising how rare complete silence is in modern life. I find it refreshing myself. This board has done wonders for me, as I can just go to one of these threads and look for a creationist explanation of haw the evidence presented keys with the YEC viewpoint.

"Teaching the pagan religion of evolutionism is a waste of valuable class time and textbook space. It is also one of the reasons American kids don't test as well in science as kids in other parts of the world."
Bumped for YECs still discussing flood geology...there are twelve points in the opening post which clearly falsify YECism and flood geology. All twelve points have been met by silence.
Edited to add links to other important threads with similar topics that still haven't been addressed by YECs:
