All I meant about predictable order is that the same fossils are found in the same layer everywhere.
OK, thanks.
When you say, "the same layer everywhere," do you mean something like layers from the Upper Pennsylvanian Period or even narrower, the Gzelian Stage, 304-300 million years ago wherever they occur in the world? Or maybe the "Bright Angel Shale?"
When you say, "the same fossils," do you mean the same species as biologists and paleontologists define them or your own much broader definition like "all fish are the same species, all Trilobites are the same species, all birds are the same species, etc.?" Or could you mean "the same
groupings of fossils are found in the same layer everywhere?" Like, we always find Wombats, Starfish and yellow warblers in that layer?
