[QUOTE="The IbanezerScrooge, post: 73135998, member: 380295"] The thing is catastrophism and uniformitarianism are not opposites. Catostrophic events happen just fine under uniformitarianism. Uniformitarianism has to do with [I]processes[/I], not specific events like volcanoes and earthquakes... or floods. ;) All uniformitarianism says is that the processes we observe today (i.e. erosion, deposition, oxidation, fossilization, radioactive decay, etc.) are the same processes that shaped the planet millions and billions of years ago. In short, chemistry and physics are the same today as they were when Earth was first formed. [/QUOTE]
