There are not always scavengers available to eat the carcass, for example where the water has little or no oxygen, or where the water is toxic at depth, due to algal blooms or dissolved volcanic gases. In other situations, rough weather can stir up the silt and rapidly bury anything immobile on the bottom. These conditions are somewhat unusual, so such fossils are not common.I have heard such bunk. The possibility of a fossil resulting is close to zero.
Even the bones get eaten, as your link states.

Tell that to divers in coastal waters!True. The odds of rough weather stirring up silt are very close to zero.
'God Is Not Threatened by Our Scientific Adventures'Can you tell us what Francis Collin's opinion is on the theory of evolution?
The only creationism that is acceptable right now is Francis Collins
I find your arguments almost impossible to follow, since you ramble so much, introduce non-sequiturs and seem to have no single focus. This is not a complaint, but an observation and an appeal to you to focus directly on questions when put to you.There are no contrary facts. I did quite a bit of research on this. I spent about three months doing a study on Ghost Ranch. This is a very, very small part of what happened at Pangea but all the evidence available to us at Ghost Ranch can be used to verify what Kat Kerr is saying. She claims that there is a Creation Museum in Heaven where we will go to learn about how God created the Earth and how Dinosaurs were a part of that.
I even talked to Kat Kerr on the internet radio once. I could not find anything that she reveals that contradicts the Bible or Science. Your entitled to your own conclusions and to believe what you want. I can only give an account for myself.
American vertebrate paleontologist Edwin H. Colbert did work at the ranch that helped him to develop his theory on continental drift that has now developed into a theory on plate tectonics. Mostly though his study on Coelophysis.

This is the link.I ask again, what does collins say about the theory of evolution?
I do not have a problem myself with any of the Creationist theories. As long as they can stand up to science. I am the most familiar with dispensationalism so that is what I am the most willing to explain. If people ask what should be taught in our public schools then the answer is easy: they should teach Francis Schaeffer's version of Theistic Evolution.I don't think that it's particularly helpful calling theistic evolution 'creationism' although I suppose you could say that any one with the belief that a God created the universe was a creationist in the loosest sense of the word.
Creationism in the sense that most of us understand it in these forums implies backward thinking, anti-science nonsense. I wouldn't tar the likes of Francis Collins with that brush.
Ok, so collins strongly agrees with theory of evolution, cool. You have stated before; 'we all know parts of the theory of evolution are not true'. Do you still believe your statement, which disagrees with collins?This is the link.
If you do not want to read it then set your computer up to read it for you.

I am 65 years old. When I was 12 years old I was tested and found to have a learning disability. Of course that was a long time ago and now a days they have all sorts of labels they pin on people. I can not tell you exactly what my disability is. I know I put up with a lot of abuse on here because of it. People can be very rude and crude.I find your arguments almost impossible to follow, since you ramble so much, introduce non-sequiturs and seem to have no single focus.
If you look on his article on Wiki we read: "His fieldwork in Antarctica in 1969 helped solidify the acceptance of continental drift, by finding a 220-million-year-old fossil of a Lystrosaurus." If we click on that link we read: "Continental drift is the movement of the Earth's continents relative to each other, thus appearing to "drift" across the ocean bed.[2] The speculation that continents might have 'drifted' was first put forward by Abraham Ortelius in 1596. The concept was independently and more fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912, but his theory was rejected by some for lack of a mechanism (though this was supplied later by Arthur Holmes) and others because of prior theoretical commitments. The idea of continental drift has been subsumed by the theory of plate tectonics, which explains how the continents move.[3]"It wasn't his theory of continental drift. He may have favoured the theory, but he did not develop it. If you have information to the contrary please provide it now - and please remain focused.
I have given the link three times now. I guess no one wants to click on it so I will just copy the part here that pertains to this:I'm not familiar with that, what is it? (I did a quick search but couldn't see a concise explanation)

Yes we are talking about Francis Collins. Schaeffer is a theologian & philosopher. I do not think he ever got into Evolution. I remember his continental divide theory. Just as the water has to go one way or the other, he feels that everyone in life will go one way or the other. Either they will be for God or against God. All of our life is to determine if in the end we are for God or against God.Bit of a misunderstanding I think, I was asking about Francis Schaeffer (who you mentioned in the post where you responded to me), did you mean Francis Collins?
We are looking at the evolution of carnivores before and after the breakup of Pangea.
there’s gang rape and other, “human Crime” existing in the animal kingdom.
Ghost Ranch is a 21,000-acre retreat and education center located close to the village of Abiquiú in Rio Arriba County in north central New Mexico, United States. There are a lot of things to study that are associated with the Ghost Ranch. This thread has to do with the Coelophysis at Ghost Ranch. This is the point in time when Creationists and Evolutionists begin to go their own way. The question is: "Was Coelophysis a cannibal?" The Bible talks about: "If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other." (Galatians 5:15)
Paleontologists are not sure how the Coelophysis in the Ghost Ranch bone bed died. There is no real evidence on the fossils themselves of the cause of death. However, the fact that hundreds of complete skeletons are jammed together in one rock layer suggests a fast and catastrophic death of the dinosaurs. Furthermore, there is no evidence of weathering or scavenging of the fossil bones, so they must have been buried rapidly after death.
The paleontologist Edwin H. Colbert helped prove the theory of continental drift. This discovery was based in part on the work that Colbert did at Ghost Ranch and with the discovery of Coelophysis remains at the ranch and all the way through the rocky mountains. As a Creationists I point out that this is when creation began to devour itself, and that was followed by the breakup of Pangea to the point where we find the world in the current state that we are now in.
The Bible talks about shadows and types. There is a strong connection between what happened with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and what happened 200 million years ago with the Coelophysis. This is why school children today are so fascinated with the dinosaurs: because they began to develop teeth and they began to devour one another. This thread has to do with the evolution of meat eating carnivores. We are looking at the evolution of carnivores before and after the breakup of Pangea. The question is what was the change in the atmosphere at this point in time and what effect did that have on evolution?
We are also looking at the evolution of mammals and what impact the breakup of Pangea had on this chapter in the book of evolution having to do with mammals.
How did all of the Coelophysis at Ghost Ranch die?
