The bones were fossilized in sedimentary metamorphic rocks because of pressure, just like @AV1611VET said. Your not listening most of your questions could be answered if you’d just think about what we said.
Wrong.
What is a sedimentary metamorphic rock?
It's either sedimentary or metamorphic.

Here is a ammonite fossil at least 65 million years old I obtained from my uncle who was geophysicist.

The white residue was aragonite converted to a stable calcite in a process called permineralization which requires the presence of water permeating through sedimentary layers and is the most common fossilization process.
These fossils are found in sedimentary rocks.

Beats me.

And why do you mean by "all this trouble"?

'Taint no trouble a'tawl for God.
Let's suppose it was all too easy.
So what was God's motivation and why did he put an iridium rich layer above the dinosaur fossils including ammonite fossils which became extinct at the same time.

It's to keep the dinos from coming back as zombies.

most of your questions could be answered if you’d just think about what we said.
How can we think about your answers when you don't give us your answers?

'Taint no trouble a'tawl for God.
If it 'taint no trouble a'tawl for God to put an iridium rich layer in the Earth between the non-avian dinosaur fossils and later fossils, would you also say it 'Taint no trouble a'tawl for God to manipulate the photons that come to your eyes from the authorized, inspired KJV such that what you see is not what is there?

Or is your God not powerful enough to do that? Your God seems to be too powerless to alter the KJV you read. If your God is that powerless, how can you continually resort to his power as the answer to what we see buried in the Earth?

those dinosaur bones get put down there into solid rocks
You can put hardner in cement or plaster and get it to set up in five or ten minutes. It does not take long to make a rock. I have worked on 100 year old houses and the 2 by 4 's were already hard as a rock. It does not happen very often but I have seen it. Most likely they used wood that was still green and did not dry out properly.

If God said there was a flood that destroyed everything then it must have been world wide. Why disagree with the word of God?

Because His creation shows that it didn't happen.

I guess its a good thing I am not running the universe. :)

You'd probably be better than some of candidates proposed herein, but its still better that you aren't running the universe (nor anyone else).

Man interpretation of creation is very much flawed.

Not at all. The creation is sound. What a historical group of people who very much did not have a clear picture or knowledge of the wider world around them, that was very much flawed.

Science has opened up a different Creation story, one that the Earth itself is showing us. On the other hand, it's the Creation story of an ancient pre-Jewish middle-east tribe of desert dwellers that is to be questioned.
