That is not a dog.The creationist drivel you quote is unusually deceitful and halfwitted even for creationist drivel. Really, they come up with lies this dumb and then they wonder why they're not allowed to teach them in science class?Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

But this has been shown, and everyone reading this thread knows it.

"In fact, the operation of Darwinian processes should yield exactly what we see in the fossil record." --- Gould, Evolution's Erratic Pace, Natural History 86(5):12-16."Our theory holds, as a defining statement, that ordinary allopatric speciation, unfolding gradually at microevolutionary scales, translates to punctuation in geological time." --- Stephen Jay Gould, The Structure of Evolutionary Theory"Faced with these facts of evolution and the philosophical bankruptcy of their own position, creationists rely upon distortion and innuendo to buttress their rhetorical claim. If I sound sharp or bitter, indeed I am - for I have become a major target of these practices." --- Stephen Jay Gould, Evolution as Fact and Theory"Stasis had continued to be ignored until Gould and I showed that such stability is a real aspect of life's history which must be confronted - and that, in fact, it posed no fundamental threat to the basic notion of evolution itself." --- Niles Eldredge, Time Frames"My version of how the evolutionary process works lines up very well with Darwin’s. [...] this new picture is not un-Darwinian, let alone anti-Darwinian. [...] I confess that I am a true Darwinist." --- Nile Eldredge, Confessions of a Darwinist."Q: Does the fossil record provide evidence for the existence of transitional forms?
A: Yes, it does.
Q: Are there many such examples?
A: Yes, there are." --- Stephen Jay Gould, sworn testimony in McClean v. Arkansas."Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact." --- Stephen Jay Gould, Evolution as Fact and Theory"I think they [creationists] proceed by misquotation, by selective quotation, and by invoking supernatural intervention to produce the basic kinds of life, all of which are not only unscientific, but represent skill and rhetoric rather than science." --- Stephen Jay Gould, sworn testimony in McClean v. Arkansas. "Evolution is both a scientific fact and a scientific theory. Evolution is a fact in the sense that life has changed through time. In nature today, the characteristics of species are changing, and new species are arising. The fossil record is the primary factual evidence for evolution in times past, and evolution is well documented by further evidence from other scientific disciplines, including comparative anatomy, biogeography, genetics, molecular biology, and studies of viral and bacterial diseases." --- The Paleontological Society"The fossil record of vertebrates unequivocally supports the hypothesis that vertebrates have evolved through time, from their first records in the early Paleozoic Era about 500 million years ago to the great diversity we see in the world today. The hypothesis has been strengthened by so many independent observations of fossil sequences that it has come to be regarded as a confirmed fact, as certain as the drift of continents through time or the lawful operation of gravity." --- Society of Vertebrate Paleontology"The crowning achievement of paleontology has been the demonstration, from the history of life, of the validity of the evolutionary theory [...] The fossil record contains many well-documented examples of the transition from one species into another, as well as the origin of new physical features." --- American Geological Institute. "If only they'd look at the facts, they'd soon discover that we have a rich supply of intermediate fossils." --- Richard Dawkins, The Greatest Show On Earth.

We all know you're lying, remember?HELLO?Earth to Eliyahu.We all KNOW you're lying.

Hello? We all know you're lying. Hello? We all know you're lying. Hello? We all know you're lying. Hello? We all know you're lying. Hello? We all know you're lying. Hello? We all know you're lying. Hello? We all know you're lying.---So what's the point? If you want to prove that some creationists are disgusting degraded liars, that point has been so well made by luminaries such as Kent Hovind and Duane Gish as to render your efforts superfluous.

"So it's not true to say that punctuated equilibrium is just an argument born of despair, because you don't see transitional forms." --- Stephen Jay Gould, testifying under oath in McLean v. Arkansas.

Given that they've looked at it and you haven't, I'm gonna go with them.
