evolution are of this category (like Darwin’s finches). Change of one type of organism into another is beyond the ability of natural selection and as we have already seen, mutation is a non-starter.

 

Insect fossils are found already developed without ancestors. There are no transitional animals leading to the dinosaurs. These fossils were once thought to be millions of years old. This age was based upon the geologic column. The geologic column dates fossils by the rocks in which they are found, and dates rocks by the fossils they contain. Critics insist this is circular reasoning.

 

“The intelligent layman has long suspected circular reasoning in the use of rocks to date fossils and fossils to date rocks” (J.E. O’Rourke, “American Journal of Science,” 1976, 276:51). 

 

Furthermore, the geologic column assumes uniformity, which has come to be disproved by fossils in more than one strata, misplaced fossils, missing layers and misplaced layers (such as layers in reverse order, or “ancient” layers found several layers above “modern” layers).

 

Since the beginning of the 19th century people have been working hard to find evidence of evolution in the fossil strata. As a result of all the finds the “geological record” is no longer regarded as “imperfect” or incomplete.

We now have a quarter of a million fossil species but the situation hasn’t changed much. The record of evolution is still surprisingly jerky and ironically, we have even fewer examples of evolutionary
