While you’re researching exactly what the fossil record is, let me go ahead and say you will not find where it has provided any supporting evidence for slow, gradual, detailed changes from one kind to another kind. There are no such “detailed changes,” beyond general “simple to more developed” specific forms of life, which no doubt fuels macroevolution speculation. The Cambrian Explosion shows major life forms bursting onto the scene in a relatively short time, which counters the idea of slow transitions.How do you explain the fossil record? This is not a rhetorical question; I want you to answer it in as much detail as possible.
The “short” time of the Cambrian explosion lasted 10 million years at a minimum. In some places it lasted 25 million years. There were also almost 3 billion years of life before the CambrianWhile you’re researching exactly what the fossil record is, let me go ahead and say you will not find where it has provided any supporting evidence for slow, gradual, detailed changes from one kind to another kind.

. You’ve got a vivid imagination there , son ! What about the almost 3 billion years of life before the Cambrian . Life’s been on this planet for 3,800 million years ! That’s 3.8 billion . The Cambrian was about 500 million years agoQuite impossible.

My point was: “Where is the evidence of the slow transitions from simple forms?”The “short” time of the Cambrian explosion lasted 10 million years at a minimum. In some places it lasted 25 million years. There were also almost 3 billion years of life before the Cambrian
Missing links.And the theory of evolution would become one of those, if you could come up with evidence against it. Got any?
. I’m not sure what you mean . In Polyploid speciation the offspring are another species that can’t mate with the parents species. Not all speciation ( macroevolution) is gradual . If you mean how did eucaryotes become multicellular; that took over a billion years and also involved joining with an alpha proteobacterial symbiont inside the cellMy point was: “Where is the evidence of the slow transitions from simple forms?”
I was referring to the lack of observable physical evidence (as in a detailed fossil transition) of a change from one kind to another, which obviously doesn’t exist. This is why I keep referring to your terminology and charts as scientific speculation.I’m not sure what you mean .
I’m not sure that barriers to reproduction and the inability to reproduce are really the same in the scheme of things (when it comes to variations of kind). And it certainly doesn’t mean macroevolution is taking place. This seems contrary, more like the reduction of genes, rather than say, the addition of two amino acids to the FoxP2 gene that came from ‘out of the blue’ to make us human (example).In Polyploid speciation the offspring are another species that can’t mate with the parents species.

Of course, the process is not observable… more speculation.If you mean how did eucaryotes become multicellular; that took over a billion years and also involved joining with an alpha proteobacterial symbiont inside the cell
Actually, the confusion came about when science’s classification system changed the meanings of species and genus so that they no longer equated with the biblical kind and variations. I think we have discussed this previously.This is where creationist misuse of scientific terminology is confusing .
. This is where creationists lies and obfuscation mixed with your scientific illiteracy fail you . I gave you a single lineage , the whales ,where that has already happened. You ignored it! Of course I could give you several others but you’d make up some phony excuse as to why you don’t accept them too. And keep in mind that the gaps in the fossil record are filled in with genetics. We found out that whales were Artiodactyla from genetics years before we found protowhales with legsI was referring to the lack of observable physical evidence (as in a detailed fossil transition) of a change from one kind to another, which obviously doesn’t exist.

I’m way older than you"Son?"
You can't jam 3.8 billion years of life into the universe's age of 6,000 years.

You can't jam this into a period of 6,000 years:"Son?"

Either that, or it is."Kind" is still not a biological term.
God can.You can't jam this into a period of 6,000 years:
