Faster-Than-Expected Geological Processes
The default position of secular geologists is slow and gradual (uniformitarian) processes over millions of years gave us the landforms and things that we see today. Except when the evidence is inescapable and rapid processes were involved, then they reluctantly refer to those.
Many things that geologists say took millions of years do not fit the evidence and cannot be explained through uniformitarian means. We have seen on this site alone many instance where the catastrophic deluge of the Genesis Flood provides a far better framework. More than that, there are geological processes that can be observed in the here and now.

- Pumice from an underwater volcano filled a huge area of ocean
- Salt Crystals in the Dead Sea accumulate quickly, and may explain other large salt deposits that were attributed to millions of Darwin years
- Yellowstone's thermal areas and caldera activity were attributed to thousands of years, but a new on happened just recently
