The Fossil Record Testifies of Rapid Deposition

Practically every fossil found testifies to a rapid burial in a catastrophic (locally, at a minimum) inundation of sediment, borne usually by water (but sometimes by wind, avalanche, volcanic ash-fall, etc).

There are billions of fossils world-wide, in layer after layer of deposited sediment, sometimes stretching through several layers. Each of these fossils testify to a rapid burial as opposed to slow, almost imperceptible processes.

Just sayin'.
