Also, with the "Expanding Earth" theory...

The Earth gains 300 tons of matter per day from meteoroids disintigrating in the atmosphere.

Also, the planets formed through the gathering of matter around stronger gravitational points. The gravity of the planet would shape the form to be spheroid, like the planets are today. Wouldn't Expanding Earth have troubles growing since there is a lot of gravity holding the matter to the center of the sphere?
