Only that a fossil is, well, only a fossil. It proves nothing beyond the fact that it existed at a point in time.
Wrong. The fact that the fossil record is invariably consistent with the theory of evolution does in fact prove the correctness of the theory of evolution (along with the accurate predictions the theory makes concerning morphology, molecular phylogeny, biogeography, behavioral ecology, et cetera.
Bull-chips. How can you test something that supposedly takes eons to occur.
By comparing the predictions of the theory with the evidence, the same way every other scientific theory is tested.
Yes, to the first question.
Then why don't creationists reveal this evidence to the world? What is their motivation for concealing it?
