you keep saying there should be more fossils, if you expect the world to be covered in fossils why arn't they there from the flood?
Why are so few dinosuars and other extant species fossils found if this flood can magickally turn bones into stone, and bury shells within and under feet of stone?
It is not just the first and the last. Sometimes there are whole long strings of closely related fossils showing evolutionary development.
But OK, you think there are big gaps in parts of the fossil record, and that the gaps are large enough that some other developmental process may have gone on in them. Who knows? You may be right. But you have no evidence whatever of such a process and no proposed mechanism for it. Under those circumstances a good scientist would simply wait as the gaps in the fossil regard are gradually closed by new discoveries to see what turns up.
Don't know much about bird evolution - but I am curious if you can explain - step by step, of course - how the Hebrew deity transformed silicates into the thousands of bio-organic molecules needed to created a man from dust.
Where are the remains of all of your ancestors from Adam to you?
Heck, that is only about 300 generations!
Except that somehow you deny it when it comes to confirming evolution.From dust to dust. you do realize everything doesn't fossilize? right?
So some are dust, and a few fossilized, and are still in the ground or found. And please think before you come back with your point.
Except that somehow you deny it when it comes to confirming evolution.
So which is it?Details please on what exactly you are charging me with? And I hope you read the part about thinking before you reply.
Except that somehow you deny it when it comes to confirming evolution.
So you think something else besides evolution was going on in the fossil "gaps" why not just wait as the gaps close up through new discoveries?I suppose drawing conclusion before giving due process could be be perceived as fair, but only by the unfair, and in some cases, those who are a bit desperate for a leg up.
Makes perfect sense to me anyway.
So which is it?
Not every creature fossilizes; a few fossilize and some of those few are still in the ground?
Or
There should be more fossils if evolution s true?
Except I did read that, was I complaining about that question being ignored?
You are creating problems out of nowhere...trying to make it appear I've done something wrong. Just like your false quote of me, the one I questioned you on but you chose not to answer. You still aren't answering all questions, but don't worry about it, just like the question I just mentioned, I'm going to assume you know you are wrong on any unanswered question.
You would need much more than that. First, do you agree with the following, and remember you said birds were dino's with no other explanation.
From the google search "Are dinosaurs birds"
Ask your average paleontologist who is familiar with the phylogeny of vertebrates and they will probably tell you that yes, birds (avians) are dinosaurs. Using proper terminology, birds are avian dinosaurs; other dinosaurs are non-avian dinosaurs, and (strange as it may sound) birds are technically considered reptiles.

Then there is that pesky little problem I keep going on about, so if you would please show us some pictures of the set of fossils found that lead us to believe one evolved from the other, it would be helpful in making your point. Let me see what fossils you do have, and I will determine if it's enough to sway me, fair enough?
And remember you will also need to refute the fact animals share characteristics, as in man has hair but that doesn't prove we came from a bear/ape or whatever, not unless you can show us the proof of gradual change that seems to be missing with the excuse we just haven't found it yet. Of course I can wait till they do find it, but until then...meh.
Hopefully we are getting somewhere now.
And there you go again, where did I say the world (earth) should be covered with fossils?
They are there...think sea life found at high elevations. What fossils are you missing? Maybe I can help with any misunderstanding.
Flood turn things to stone? I don't know what any of that means, please rephrase.
So you think something else besides evolution was going on in the fossil "gaps" why not just wait as the gaps close up through new discoveries?
I think it is clear to everyone here that you believe that there are too many gaps in the fossil record for you to find evolution convincing. You have said it at various times and in various ways, so it is not a question of a "misquote."That isn't an answer to my question.
This needs to be taken step by step so we can show what you are actually doing here in order to get that leg up I went on about earlier, and also so I can give you answers to truthful and not made up questions/comments. IOW, when you ask me a question based on a misquote, it's not a fair question or a question based on the truth, but only something devised to work in your favor...understand? If not, I can't be any clearer.
THERE ARE NO SEA LIFE ON MOUNTAINS, for the last time, stop trying to be disingenuous about them.
ummm go read 183 where you were acting like we were ignoring the question.
wow you are dishonest, you asked how many generations from apes to humans, I answered, you havn't given the point of that question and acted like we ignored it, that is dishonest, make your point about why how many generations passed matters.
Where did I make that specific claim, I need the exact quote before I'll go on. All I can do at the moment is assume that desperation I mentioned has has caused a claim I said something that I did not say, but instead there was much more too it. But since I hate to assume, I'll await your response.
Of course they're rare....thank you.
Problem with that is, as I already alluded, over the so-called slow process of evolution there would be hundreds or even thousands/millions or more (actually the numbers would be off the charts) in between creature that led up to what we have today, while instead, there are all but none. You are depending in the "bit's and pieces" that I already told you just won't work here (they only work against your claim) in order to make your point?
For example, let's take an ape or whatever it is you all think we evolved from, now where are the all but never ending amount of fossils that gradually turned into a man? IOW, if we find several ape fossils and several modern man fossils there would have to be tons of slowly evolving creatures fossils in between there, and for all intents and purposes, we might as well say there are none.
Again, where are they all?
If you understand that fossilization rarely happens, why do you think there must be millions+ of fossils and only if evolution is true? If fossilization is rare, then you would not expect millions+ of fossils.
