Okay, I know one answer to my question already: Natural disasters like volcanic eruptions and floods destroyed and buried some sites. But how did other sites end up underground?

For instance, the old foundation walls of President Washington's house in Philadelphia appear to be about 10 to 15 feet below current street level. And that house was demolished less than 200 years ago. How did those ruins end up so far underground in that time frame? Did someone bury them? If so, then why isn't there a 15-foot hill on top of the ruin site? What are some other ways that sites become gradually buried?

How do we know that the earth should not be warming, I have seen stories of mammoths and people frozen in the ice that people say shouldn’t be melting. How did they get there, looks like it wasn’t always ice to me maybe this is what is normal for the earth. I don’t see a problem with a 1 degree rise in temperature in the past 100 years.

Paper contains carbon which has been taken out of the atmosphere by trees. Assuming the trees used in paper production are replanted, and that the paper is not burnt or rotted to release the carbon back into the atmosphere, is using more paper better for the environment? Should I abandon double sided, 2-to-a-page print settings?

hiii...
this is the 4th Question ..(what will you say if you know that..?)
Earth's crust has been slowly moving for billions of years. Not only mountains are still slowly moving but also whole continents. Moslems say that this is what Allah says:

[Quran 27.88] You see the mountains and think they are firmly fixed: but they are moving away just like the clouds are moving away: (such is) the artistry of Allah, Who disposes of all things in perfect order: for He knows all what you do.

Earth is a sphere. Moslems say that this is what Allah says. The Quran says that when the night and the day overlap, they make a ball (sphere):

[Quran 39.5] [Allah] Created the heavens and the Earth in truth. He overlaps [Yukawer in Arabic] the night over the day and overlaps [Yukawer] the day over the night, and enslaved the sun and the moon. Everything moves to a prerecorded destiny [on the Preserved Tablet]. Is He not the Exalted, the Forgiver?

The Arabic word "Kura" means ball; its verb "Yukawer" means: to make into a ball. The Quran says that the overlapping of the night and the day makes a sphere (ball).
