I happen to live near the south downs which are hills made of chalk, you know what that is right?
its the tiny skeletons of billions upon billions of tiny creatures that sank to the bottom of a sea over millions of years.

Wikipedia? Ugh.
Sure they are billions and billions of skeletons, but they do not have to be deposited over millions and millions of years. A flood could deposit them very quickly and rapid fossilization is the only process ever scientifically observed to happen so it is the better explanation than gradual fossilization.
Quote: The physical laws are used because they work. If they suddenly stopped working then that would be interesting and the laws would need revision.
They are only descriptions of the physical world and are only as good as the predictions they make.
I am not talking about whether they have worked in the past or not, I am pointing out that you live your life as if you believe they will continue to work in the future even though you cannot justify or logically prove this position given your atheistic worldview. Then you turn around and say you do not believe things without evidence or proof, I have pointed out that this is a false statement.
