Some [[Young earth creationism|young earth creationary]] geologists use the nomenclature of the system whilst not accepting the uniformitarian dates attached to the system which places the age of the earth as being billions of years old.<ref>"Creationists use the same naming system, although do not accept the uniformitarian belief that the geologic column represents eons of time", Batten, Don, quoted in Sarfati, Jonathan, [http://www.creationontheweb.com/content/view/2280 More nonsense from Professor Plimer]</ref><ref>Morris, 1973.</ref><ref>http://www.icr.org/index.php?module=articles&action=view&ID=54</ref><ref>http://www.allaboutcreation.org/geologic-time-scale.htm</ref> Other young earth creationists assert that geological column does not exist and cite secular scientists who state the argumentation advocating the geological column involves circular reasoning. <ref>http://www.trueorigin.org/geocolumn.asp</ref><ref>http://iwhome.com/spiritualquest/tracts/dp-geol-.htm</ref>  Young earth creationist scientists use a geological system that more heavily relies on [[Catastrophism|catastrophism]] and reject the uniformitarian assumptions behind the dates derived by secular geologists, and thus reject these dates.

"Potentially more important to geological thinking are those unconformities that signal large chunks of geological history are missing, even though the strata on either side of the unconformity are perfectly parallel and show no evidence of erosion. Did millions of years fly by with no discernible effect? A possible though controversial inference is that our geological clocks and stratigraphic concepts need working on". <ref>http://www.cs.unc.edu/~plaisted/ce/flood.html</ref>
