You are either an amateur, who doesn't know diddly squat about geology or a troll, who doesn't know diddly squat about geology. Either way you need to look up the various hardness and density properties of rocks. Start with the material you mentioned, volcanic plugs. Then you need to understand how erosion works on different materials (that varies from material being eroded and what the forces of erosion are). When features stand out or remain standing, following an erosion event or events, it is not because they are the hardest materials that exist, merely harder than the materials that surrounded it (them). This difference is significant. Make sure you know the qualifiers.
The Grand Canyon does not offer any proof of a world flood, by the way. The Grand Canyon is an excellent example of how erosive forces work over time. If you want proof of this, merely turn a giant hose on at the top of the Grand Canyon beside the current water channel. Set the pressure to ten times the current water force of the present water flow of the Colorado River and start cutting a channel through the rock. Hell, set the pressure level to a hundred times the present water flow. Then get back to me when you have cut down to the current water bed.
I'll wait. I plan on living as long as Noah. About 950 years. After that, you're on your own.
And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love...you make. PMcC
