Why would you mix it up with ocean water? Who said anything about a global
flood? If a large area has sedimentary layers over it, how did the layers
form? Did a new layer get put there each time a the water rose a bit? Did
the water carefully select a different types of soil each time and then the
next time get a different type? I don't really know what I'm talking about,
I dont even know how the dirt turned into a rock, so I guess I'm asking
questions out of ignorance. Still, if someone would humor me with the
answers I would be most appreciative.
