Petrified waterwheel
Tourists who visit Cape Leeuwin in Western Australia are astonished at the sight
of this waterwheel which has become entombed in solid rock in less than 65 years.
But why should it be surprising that the precipitation of minerals from flowing
water can do this sort of thing in what is actually a fairly long period of time,
with water dripping night and day?

Close-ups of the waterwheel show remarkable concretions have formed in little more
than 60 years. Natural formations whose ages are not known may lead some to believe
they have taken thousands or even millions of years to form. Evolutionary indoctrination
has left most people with a false idea of the what 'old' really is in the natural
world. |
The reason most see these sorts of facts as extraordinary is because of our cultural
conditioning in an evolutionary world view which is hostile to the Bible’s
clear teaching of a recent creation. This makes people instinctively think of geological
events such as petrifaction, fossilization and flowstone formation, for instance,
in terms of many millions of years.
Given the right chemical environment, the thousands of years since Noah’s
Flood are actually a vast amount of time adequate to explain the sorts of geological
features we have grown up to believe speak of millions of years.
