It's actually not the Fossil Record, it is the ideas of Ned's (and many others) associated with the Record that confuses me.

Could you explain that in much more detail? Given the fossil record I don't see how you can come to the conclusion that life on earth hasn't evolved?
​
Could you describe what you think has produced the fossil record? I would suggest a new thread if you have any real logic to back your theory up as it may go on for awhile and would derail the title of this thread?

​
I'm just saying that the Fossil record itself is not hard evidence for evolution. First of all the Fossil record's pattern of "smaller to bigger" organisms does not exactly say that "These organisms evolved", one can infer that this is what happened but it is not certain...
​
What has produced the fossil record? I really don't know why the record shows what it does. I have heard theories, none of them proving to be totally valid, it is really a mystery of life itself.
What I am saying is that your theory really hasn't been proven truly valid.

Fossil Record topic spun off into its own topic
I'm going to close this one down, at least temporarily. Contact the appropriate link below, if you want this topic re-opened.

Re: Fossil Record topic spun off into its own topic
OK, I successfully got the spin-off topic running. Time to re-open this one (especially since the other one got a message that would be better in this topic).
​
That message, from "the mountain hare":
quote:
The fossil record is good evidence for evolution. Their is better, though. For example, vestigal remanents, genetic similiarites, and the whole science of molecular biology.
​
Why smash a hole in the ground with a hammer when you can use a jackhammer?
​
Now please, no fossil record discussion in this topic.
