Unfortunately, when it comes to fundamental processes ... exactly as two layers of identical sediments having the same thickness, containing similar fossils, are not necessarily deposited during the same time. This is in fact recognized by the geologists who admit the existence of homotaxial deposits. The latter define series of rocks containing identical assemblages of fossil remains deposited in different places at different epochs. It should be ...

A geological boundary layer between the Cretaceous and Tertiary shows up all over the Earth except in Antarctica. Geologists accept that a large asteroid impact caused it.

Dr. David Delo, of the American Geological Institute, asserted that all mountains were "formed millions of years ago," and no new mountains had sprung up since then. Therefore, Velikovsky "appears to ... by-passing all the sound scientific observations of a multitude of geologists made during the past 100 years." The last remark is incorrect because for more than thirty years there has been hardly any other geologist in the Old or the New World who would contradict the fact established by explorers on all major mountain chains of the world- the Himalayas, the ...
