"Fossil"
Hi BD,
Basically what is says is that the only evidence anyone can ever come up with since the beginning of time, for the supposed random mutations and natural selection of evolution, that they think shows how all of life on the planet, every system, every thought, ever animal trait and behavior, and every complex, interrelated detail of existence, is the changing diets of some bacteria.
Have you heard of a thing called a "fossil" Bolders? I believe there are some very nice ones in China.

Re: "Fossil"
Hi BD,
Fossils can tell you that RM and NS took place? Talk about a canard.
Not on their own, no. But then we already know, from real-time observations, that both RM and NS do take place, so we hardly need fossils to prove any such thing.
What the fossil record does do is provide evidence for evolution. If evolution were true, we would expect to see that organisms preserved in the fossil record change over geological time. That would be in accordance with the ToE. And that is exactly what we do find.
Also, if the ToE were true, we would expect not to find anachronistic fossils, like say, Cambrian rabbits or Triassic birds. And guess what; that is something that we never find, despite the fact that hundreds of millions of fossils are known. This too constitutes clear evidence in favour of the ToE.

This thread is easily the most foolish and absurd on the whole forum. You know perfectly well that there are multiple lines of evidence for the ToE. Genetics, population dynamics, geology, biogeography, etc. are all frequently cited as evidence for the ToE. You know this. You may not agree that such evidence is valid and no-one is saying that you have to, but to pretend that it does not exist is childish and fatuous.

Bolders...
What the hell is your problem man? Are you on a personal quest to disprove the aphorism that there's no such thing as a stupid question?
You can hardly expect to be treated with respect and given the answers you are asking for if this is your attitude.
Do you really imagine that you are helping the cause of creationism by behaving in this way?
