this proves the earth isnt old. the mississipi drainage basin would have washed out to sea long ago if it was 100s of millions of years old. the world is only 6000 yrs old and the misspi river only about 4000 yrs old

@iorixs To quote a famous philosopher "You are dumber than a retarded quahog" go back to reading fiction!

@Kaplah1 wow. why so hostile. sedimentologists have measured the rare of erosion and there just isnt enough of it to account for millions of yrs. just a simple fact

[iorixs]

@iorixs This problem has been highlighted by a number of geologists who calculated that North America should have been levelled in 10 million years if erosion has continued at the average rate

@iorixs Not hostile just cant deal with religious nuts that think the world is 6K - produce the publication you cite. Ever hear of carbon dating, fossil record, pangea, the ice age, orogeny, big bang? Gotta go the tooth fairy is coming.
