I have just had the dubious delight of watching a Lincolnshire geologist on TV try to argue away what he exaggeratedly called ' the trillions of fossils' to be found in a particular limestone quarry.He insisted that these were deposited over a 160 million years.
It never occurred to a closed mind that these could not possibly have fossilised gradually over time.
And why not? - Because animal forms ROT away very rapidly. The evidence for a single, catastrophic act here is virtually unchallengeable.
