If you've ever been to the Grand Canyon, it sure is an amazing site to see. If you go to the bottom you can imagine the amount of force it would take to carve this amazing creature. Only it is said it formed over millions of years by the tiny stream of water that is the Colorado river. The top of the grand canyon is higher than where the river enters the canyon by over 4000 feet, this means that if traveled uphill, which doesnt happen naturally. There's also no delta, mud buildup that would be formed that washed out of the canyon. Because of this you could logically conclude that the river didnt create the canyon. It is possible the Grand Canyon is a breech in a giant dam, the Kaibab uplift. The barbed canyons on the east side seem to prove this.
There has been a discovery of pollen grains of gymnosperm and angiosperm at the lowest strata of the canyon. Pollen finds have been found in both "Precambrian" and "Cambrian" strata which are before pollen "formed," pollen should only be found in and above the Carboniferous strata. Steven Austin, sedimentary geologist with the Institute for Creation research has conducted uniformitarian radioactive dating tests and found that solidified lava layers near the top are were dated to be older than lava layers buried deeply under the lowest strata, which is contrary to the principle of superposition. As said in an earlier post, radioactive carbon tests are not sufficient to be trustworthy but because most scientist say that they are, this is something for them to rethink.
