[QUOTE="Dave-W, post: 73137898, member: 354693"] Disagree. I believe those terms were first used in "The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch" by D. W. Patton back in the 1970s. Uniformitarianism described a very slow process that inched along over millions and billions of years with no discernible change over shorter periods like decades or centuries. So even if volcanoes and earthquakes happened, it did no overall change that would be noticeable. Catatrophism OTOH, meant that there were short bursts of very noticeable change that provided the majority of evolution, both biologic and astronomic. [/QUOTE]
