Some creationists, taking it for granted that the existence of a geological column in the fossil record is well established, have proposed the theory of zonation as a way in which such a column could have been established in a relatively short time. The author proposes, however, that it is not necessary to account for the universal existence of a geological column, for it does not exist universally. Thus Creationist Geology may be relieved of the job of trying to account for a phenomenon which in fact does not exist in any world-wide or universal way.
