Believe it or not, but this big bang has really blown the socks of evolution and I reckon they will have one hell of a time justifying this explosion and hanging on to their flimsy thread of materialism
My goodness, when will we see all of this amazing scientific information published in the scientific journals, then?
Considering that we have known about the Cabrian "explosion", or "slow burn" as it is more accurately called, for decades, and so far the ToE shows no sign of going away, what you are left with is a religious fundamentalist's fantasy of science and reason toppling in favor of a literal interpretation of your preferred religious text.

MP: Archaeopteryx is a reptile!
PB: Yeah, and my dog is a reptile too!
Wow, I didn't know that reptiles produced milk, gave birth to live young, are warm-blooded, and have fur all over their bodies.
...wait a minute!
Those aren't the characteristics of a reptile...
That's a MAMMAL!
Gee, since when do reptiles have the same characteristics of mammals, Peter?
Probably the same time that where the foramen magnum is located on a skull doesn't indicate how upright the animal locomotes.
