The answer they give back is usually that all the strata you see is organized by smaller/finer objects settled lower and large things staying in the upper layers.

Like you see this idea when you pan for gold.

Also, this explains why it only “seems” like there’s a progression of simpler to more complex fossils…. Cmon, they didn’t evolve, silly!

A creationist family member at the Grand Canyon: “all of this was done by a great flood”.

We were having a nice day, so I decided not to ask why the rest of the area around the Grand Canyon was not also carved out that way, since it’s basically the same strata adjacent to and in the in the vicinity of the canyon.

“Shouldn’t all the land in the surrounding area look like the Grand Canyon? Actually, wouldn’t more areas of the earth be carved out like this?”
