The interpretation compiled by pundits looks strange. "... The initial material for the formation of rocks was the products of volcanic eruption - ash, slag, lava. Redeposited by water, ice or wind, they formed the layers of the original sedimentary strata." How to comprehend these collected words in two sentences? Perhaps it is not worth choosing words to characterize their content. Moreover, such a scientific substantiation is not the first time. But even if we proceed from such an "explanation", do mountain structures consist of ash, slag? The material composition of rocks is different.

Planet Earth in the distant past was not in a molten state and is not on the way to cooling. (Otherwise, there would not be any changes inside, except for the direction along the path of entropy. Simply put, the Earth would cool down calmly, slowly contracting, decreasing in volume. In reality, everything happens the other way around: the Earth is expanding.) However, this concept does not give full presentation on the merits of the case.

The opinion has taken root that the mystery of the origin of many geological phenomena deprives them of the possibility of scientific foresight of their detrimental manifestations and the search for patterns to identify what is useful for society. Hence the conclusion: first of all it is necessary to reveal the mysterious mechanism of these geological phenomena.
Well, it is worth paying attention to how science approaches the solution of this issue and analyze its strengths and weaknesses. But we can say in advance that the first drop in the sea, and the last a whole sea.
