Volcanic Plugs and Necks Show Evidence for Creation

Volcanic plugs or necks are the vertical remnants of active volcanoes that have become inactive. As a volcano cools off and becomes permanently inactive, the columnar plug or neck and its associated dikes become solid and are exposed by erosion. Massive scale erosion has exposed these volcanic remnants around the world and gives evidence of the catastrophic effects of the receding floodwaters of the Genesis Flood less than 5,000 years ago.
Solidified volcanic rock is termed "igneous" and is generally harder and more erosion resistant than the surrounding softer sediments. As the Genesis Flood and its receding waters removed the softer sediments around these extinct volcanoes, the harder and more erosion-resistant volcanic plugs or necks remained.
Examples of these volcanic plugs or necks include Ship Rock in New Mexico, USA, which stands 1,700 feet above the surrounding eroded plains. Other volcanic plugs have been found on all seven continents including Antarctica, further showcasing the global extent of erosion from the Genesis Flood. To suggest that the lower plains surrounding these volcanic plugs were eroded at current rates over millions of years is simply an inaccurate observation. In addition, "tranquil and gradual" sea level fluctuations over millions of years would not have created these erosional features.
Only the receding floodwaters of the global flood described in the Book of Genesis could have eroded these surrounding plains to the degree visible. However, mainstream and secular scientists refuse to accept the possibility of a global flood and must therefore continue their impossible assumption of current rates of erosion over long periods of time.
