      As a Former Student of this subject
      I’ve always had a question
      How can anything be Dated Correctly if you know the Age of the Rock by the Fossils it contains and you know the Age of the Fossils by the Rock they are in ?
      Isn’t that like saying We Don’t Really Know Anything We Are Only Guessing ?
      I have a Theory it’s that the Earth was Created by Intelligent Design and is only about 6,500 years old.

      So yeah, there's um... oil down there... and its slowly seeping further and further down.
      Eventually, enough of it will start to seep through the rock and into the upper mantle!

    As a person who just watched this video, read through the comment section, made his own comment, and then had to go back and edit his typos, I just want to say that there is an insane amount of "as a *insert description or profession here*" comments in this thread. Great video, I enjoyed it, but I think I may have enjoyed the "as a" comments just as much despite the fact that I would have probably found them somewhat annoying if it had only been a few of them.

    Very interesting. The Snowball Earth hypothesis could probably be tested by seeing if the missing time period is greater towards the poles. While I was watching this, I was also thinking of plate tectonics as a possible source of the unconformities, in that it disrupts the simplistic linear new-to-old as you go down model. I'm also wondering if this might point to faults in our mechanisms for dating rocks. That we're presuming some things to be constant, when they're not, and something happened in that period that just doesn't conform to our model. After all, this is when the Cambrian Explosion happened, so something extremely unusual was going down then. In any event, the missing layers coinciding with the Cambrian Explosion seems important. This is, after all, seemingly the most important era in world history.

    I live next to a mountain in Wyoming that is famously studied because the top of the mountain is much much older than the bottom. It is also some 20-50 miles from the rest of the mountain range that it belonged to originally. I can’t remember the exact distance or ages but you can look up the geological history of Heart Mountain outside of Cody Wyoming and I think you will be surprised.

    I found a tiny shell fossil (I don't know what it is) in my mom and dad's front yard in the Ozarks. It sat at the bottom of a perfectly round hole in a small rock. I still have that rock. I was also wading in a stream in Missouri when I found a very, very strange rock practically in the middle of the stream. It's hard to describe. It's in the shape of a UFO, complete with a top and bottom, and what looks like a small pilot on the top. It has strange hieroglyphic shapes on the sides and what looks like windows. I didn't even notice all that and put it in the pocket of my jacket. When I pulled it out a couple of years later, I screamed and dropped it on my bed. My husband was so freaked out by it, he wanted me to throw it away. For some reason, I didn't, and I still have it safely tucked away, just in case someone ever wants to examine it.

      One explanation that comes to mind is the sea level must have been a lot lower back then. Scientists ‘currently’ believe the the sea level has risen about 120 meters since the last ice age melt which was about 20,000 years ago to about 6,000 years ago. Also, 3.8 billion years ago the earth is believed to have been too hot for liquid water and that as the earth cooled, the water vapor started falling as rain. So, back before this , there were no oceans.
      What’s really amazing to me is the theory that ALL the water on earth was deposited here by icy comets and icy asteroids and icy. That had to be a crap load of asteroids over a long, long, long time. Adding to the strangeness is where did the water come from that was contained in these comets and asteroids.

    This guy is an educational treasure. I learn more from CZcams in a week than I did over the course of a decade of public schools growing up.
    - I'd like to add, I have worked in schools and I highly respect teachers and their commitment to their students. But I don't back the education system as a whole. Mostly in a sense that I feel it caters strongly to the masses but not enough to the individual. It's not teachers fault and I'm not saying I know the solution or anyone else does. But it does have flaws and I hope one day we can be more understanding of those flaws and more suitably accommodate those who the system doesn't work for.

      Your comment leaves plenty for interpolation. In my experience, kids that didnt learn much from public school primarily thought they were too smart to learn anything from school as it was happening. i.e. "Why do 'we' have to practice math when we have calculators"...aka over confident ignorant kid who thinks 'we' all think like him/her.
      Second, in the 80's there was a study out of Tennessee where they measured the academic progress in two different class sizes. One and 15 students, the other 22. The conclusion said the smaller size class room showed 3 months of extra schooling progress over 4 years...This got spun some capitalist minded turds to mean lets make class sizes 30, 32, 35, even 40...aka teacher realistically has NO TIME to cover individual kids questions/confusion. Divide up the time on that. 5 days a week, how many subjects a day, number of students, teaching the whole class, time left over to talk to individual students...middle school teacher and up have 6-8 classes a day of 25-35 students (150-280 students a day).
      You didn't learn anything in public schools because the adults during your childhood decided to spend money on dumb wars, billion dollar stadiums for the NFL, NBA, etc. or other dumb project. Dont get me wrong, about 60% of American families wouldnt be able to afford ANY education for their children if the Govt didn't collect taxes to cover us most of all
      Wake up....yes, get woke...as your ignorance is obvious...Now that you are personally motivated and adult enough to give a sh!t...drum roll....you are capable of learning more.

      Actually I have horribly mismanaged ADHD and growing up I had a ton of people rooting for me who had no idea how to diagnose me or that anything was wrong.
      I also suffered from terrible depression which combined with my inability to focus made the entire school environment impossible to learn from. But when you'r forced to teach that there's only one way to teach, well I guess you just assume there's only one way to learn as well.
      I didn't fail school. School failed me. I've tried several times to get help in my adult life and so far nothing seems to offer aid. I remain vigilant in my search for solutions.

    Well-done, Thoughty 2. I'm a geology nut and have been since I was 12 (blame Jules Verne lol).
    I think Siccar Point is so important because after working there, James Hutton developed his "theory of the Earth" and he realised that Earth took not thousands of years but instead millions of years to form. This was radical stuff at that time since most people believed that the Earth was 6,000 years old. Hutton had a beautiful way to describe his theory and the age of the earth "No vestige of a beginning, no prospect of an end." Of course, today, we know that the earth is about 4.6 billion years old, and we have a reasonably clear idea of when and how it will end, but Hutton was the first scientist to grasp how old the earth actually is. He helped to lay the groundwork for modern geology. I think geologists call Siccar Point a "shrine" not necessarily because geologists are strange (though some undoubtedly are lol) but because Hutton's research at Siccar Point was a seminal moment in the history of the history of geology.

It is a long time ago so it is for memory if that is correct? The whole of Scotland along the Great Glen (Loch Linnhe to Inverness) the land mass is turned on its side one plate pushed under the other.forming The Great Glen Loch Ness and the other lochs there.

      It's a good video, but all of the trash regarding fossils lying in the ground for millions of years just doesn't wash. And for those who do choose to believe this story, I have some ocean front property for sale near Yuma. Given the creation model, life on this chunk of real estate would be less, though not by much, than 6000 years old. The evolutionary model doesn't take into account the layers of rock, sand, and minerals from underneath the continents where most of this very old material would have come from. If the evolutionary model were acceptable, the fossils would surely have to be deeper down.
