The puzzling part of this is that Earth's oceans, and now probably the water that was on Mars, both date from this period. Where did it come from? The only reasonable answer is comets.
It is reasonable. Who first proposed comets as the source of Earth's water?

Must have been a hell of a lot of comets to fill the oceans. Talk about bad weather . . .

Any possibility God had anything to do with this?
Just thought I'd ask.
