>>> The point of this thread is that the material piled up over time to a depth
of over 8 miles thick. This material could not have come from other parts of
the earth because it covered the entire earth.

You're simply wrong about this, at least as regards the "evidence" you are
basing your conclusions on. I doubt anybody is going to convince you of this
but yourself. If you want to give up 6 or 8 weeks of your life, I can help you
lay out a series of trips in the Western United States that will probably
convince you — as they have everyone else that has examined the rocks and
fossils — that the late PreCambrian and Cambrian history of the Southern Great
Basin is one of a shallow sea slowly transgressing "Eastward" over the
continental platform. You will also find that the nature of the rocks that
appear to be of the same age changes in an orderly manner from West to East and
that several MILES of Upper PreCambrian and Lower Cambrian deposits present in
the White Mountains of California thin and coarsen systematically thru the
Death Valley region and are missing entirely 300 km South East in the
Providence and Marble Ranges of San Bernardino County.
