What Does the Fossil Record Show?
Traditional evolutionary theory predicts a fossil record that would contain:
• Simple life forms gradually appearing with similar predecessors.
• Simple life forms gradually changing over time into more-complex forms.
• Countless transitional links between kinds of creatures.
• Beginnings of and partially completed features such as new limbs, bones and organs.
The biblical account of creation predicts a fossil record that would contain:
• Complex life forms suddenly appearing with no evolutionary predecessors.
• Complex life forms multiplying "after their kinds" (Genesis 6:20), but with limited variety within those kinds.
• No transitional links between kinds of creatures.
• No partial features such as new limbs, bones and organs; all parts are complete and fully functional.
After years of study and research, what does the fossil record show?
• Complex life forms suddenly appearing with no evolutionary predecessors.
• Complex life forms multiplying "after their kinds," but with limited variety within each species.
• No transitional links between kinds of creatures.
• No partial features such as new limbs, bones and organs; all parts are complete and fully functional.
