A better word would be estimate, not guess. Though very crude, Hutton realized to have layers of sedimentary rock which he could observe that it must be much older than Ussher genealogy.
Absolutely not.
We do, all over the earth. Loess, sand, limestone, shale, intrusive and extrusive volcanism, erosion and deposition. Think about it, why do archeologists have to dig down to find remains of ancient civilizations? Deposition of minerals.
Because we can data the strata which becomes older and older with thickness. As to how we know it happens there is an entire discipline that studies those processes, "Sedimentary Petrology" and "Igneous Petrology".
No, they show just the opposite. Please name a sedimentary rock that you think forms rapidly.
The earliest was written the very least a generation after Jesus. If John lived that long, why did he wait so long to write it down?
