I was going to write something then it struck me that it would be futile so I decided not to write anything.Igneous and volcanic layers contain few if any fossils. There are no "fossils who age is known" if we can't test them or the layer they reside in. Its true though, that we can guess.
You may think what you please.
Even Young Earth Creationists fully understand natural selection and it's effects on populations.
Study up guy.

It happens that I am more conservative than YEC's in that I do not add the idea of a "young earth" into the scriptures.
Any person who believes in a God of any kind outside of the natural world can be a Creationist. Should be in fact.
Mass/energy cannot be created or destroyed.
That goes double for Christians:
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
Galatians 6:15 Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is a new creation.
Mark 10:6 "But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.'
Romans 8:22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.
Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
I was going to write something then it struck me that it would be futile so I decided not to write anything.Well as you can read I did write something but I don't think it's anything worth thinking about.The above can be called babbling, it's exactly what creationists do and communicates about as much.
Checking the strata it was found in, comparing it to all the other fossils who's ages are known and fitting it into the lineage.
Me thinks that sounds a bit like circular reasoning, if ye ask me. But then what do I know? I am but a creationist.
Indeed, people rarely gat famous (and so get bigger, better research grants) by finding the same as everyone else.When we check the strata and compare fossils we're actually trying to falsify our own theories. You see, if we find the fossil in a place we don't expect it (Say a bunny right next to a trilobite) and/or it doesn't even vaguely resemble any form we've ever seen before, we have to give some serious consideration to the possibility that we might be wrong.
The moral of the story? Either find a modern animal fossil near the Cambrian, or some other era where they're not supposed to be found, or dig up a fossil unlike any we've seen before. I'm sure you'd get many people's attention with that.
They are 100% most definitely not going to do that, what would happen if they only found what they were supposed to find?The moral of the story? Either find a modern animal fossil near the Cambrian, or some other era where they're not supposed to be found, or dig up a fossil unlike any we've seen before. I'm sure you'd get many people's attention with that.
Right. Like if you were to find one lone kind of fossil in a layer of limestone that you were sure belonged only in the Tapeats limestone, you would never question that fossil might actually be in the Coconino limestone. Evolutionists assume that animal "A" only ever appeared in "X" layer and therefore every time one finds animal "A" in a layer that layer must be layer "X" and therefore we are going to test said layer this one way instead of another so we can assure ourselves that we get the result we "know" we should have because this animal "A" only lived during the time of of layer "X" and we know that layer "X" is ____ millions of years old. That is only an example of the assumptions that are made during the dating process. Therefore, the proverbial bunny will never be found in the Cambrian.It's nice to see you know your place. Since you were so humble about your ignorance I'll grace you with a tidbit. When we check the strata and compare fossils we're actually trying to falsify our own theories.

They try to say that the Cambrian is 10 million years. Still something new shows up in the fossil record. There is no change and then that species goes extinct and is never heard from again. Or something like 98% of them go extinct at the end of their age. Only a very small remanent remains.Therefore, the proverbial bunny will never be found in the Cambrian.
You really need to stop learning about biology in church, they're not teaching you anything factual.They try to say that the Cambrian is 10 million years.

So when you typed this, did this sentence know what the next two would be?There are no assumptions about fossils and where they should be found.
In fact, the use of Index Fossils came BEFORE evolution was accepted by the scientifc community. Geologists noticed that certain fossils were ONLY found in certain strata,
So when you typed this, did this sentence know what the next two would be?
It'd be laughable if it wasn't so sad.

Hey bro you're doing that thing again where you post, but aren't really saying anything.
He has nothing to say, so he just blerts out rhetoric. God forbid he give up on any of his precious made-up paradigms about evil evos and their evil atheist conspiracy.
You have no idea how geology or paleontology actually works, do you? You just have your made-up idea that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy about yourself, and you come here to show your ignorance. There are no assumptions about fossils and where they should be found. In fact, the use of Index Fossils came BEFORE evolution was accepted by the scientifc community. Geologists noticed that certain fossils were ONLY found in certain strata, but they didn't know why. Only later did we understand why. So, you see, reality does not fit with your made-up preconceptions about geologists and paleontologists at all.

This is a letter that evolutionary theory should send out:
Let me know what you all think of the letter, and what kind of responses you might have to an actual letter like this.
"To whom it may concern,
I'm looking for a chain. The only problem with my "chain" is I have only a handful of pieces and I need my "chain" to be millions (if not billions) of "miles" long. Of the scant few links I have in my possession, some of them do bear a vague resemblance to eachother, but I cannot get them to fit with eachother. One of the problems I have with my "chain", among the many, is that all the links that I have in my possession are still closed, and welded shut. There is no way I can ever get them connected.
I "know" that the millions of "miles" long "chain" once existed because I have a scant few disconnected links in my hand. I "know" that there should be hundreds of millions of copies of my missing links scattered all over the earth because I know that my "chain" is very long and very old.
Most people have bought and paid for the whole chain when I have shown them the very few closed pieces I have in my hand. Thank goodness they just took my word that those pieces fit nicely together instead of doing any investigation and saw that the links I have cannot be connected because they are shut and welded.
I really must have more pieces of my "chain" if I am going to sell this "chain" to every thinking person. Some of those pesky people that won't buy my whole "chain" believe in this book that says there never was one long complete "chain", but instead there was a "chainmaker" that made thousands of short unlinked "chains" that are still visible today. Of course we can see all those short unlinked "chains" around us today, that's where I got my "revelation" that there must be one long "super chain" that connects all the unlinked short chains into one very long super chain. Look at the finches of the Galapogos Islands. They all belong to one of those short "unlinked chains", so there must be a super chain that connects all birds everywhere. Look at horses, zebras, and donkeys. Look all around you. We all can see these short unlinked chains all around us, so doesn't it make sense that there is a super chain just waiting to be discovered?
So please, if you see any of my chain, any at all, please send it to me. Also, if you know of anyway I can connect these welded closed links to each other I would be much obliged."
Thanks.
Sincerely, Evolution."
