The horse is probably laying on several, but I still haven’t cleaned my lenses.

That’s a lot of fish.

[going hot]

Would be interesting to find out if the fish are fresh or salt water fish.

Oh, you mean a fraud.

[UCANSEE2]

Thanks, but I don’t want to get in over my head.

[kimtom]

Oh, you mean a fraud....”

Nope,

maybe in the minds of the demented....?

Would be interesting to find out if the fish are fresh or salt water fish.

More interesting to find out how a worldwide flood managed to miss leaving this same kind of evidence everywhere else.

[UCANSEE2]

Must have been a thinner fish!

Probably one of those anorexic female fish.

...Working in mysterious ways, probably. Or perhaps there simply wasn't enough waters to spread globally, so particular sites were chosen randomly?

It could happen.

Oh, you mean a fraud.

FWIW. I appreciate learning from sources with varied backgrounds. I hold in high regard those who base arguments on evidence and logic. On the other hand when someone resorts to appeal to authority. I generally discount those who use that as lazy thinkers.

there are many fossil beds (mass graves) around.

I really feel sorry for people of faith like you who have allowed the atheism of some evolutionary biologists to bamboozle you into thinking scientific facts and Biblical scripture are incompatible.

Evolution is a fact. I accept the Bible as the word of God. I have no problem reconciling them.

Needed a cheeseburger, but the item was not yet evolved, (or created?) All they had was horsemeat, and a dead one at that, yuk!

The horse in question is Protorohippus venticolus, first identified as a Hyracotherium by Edwin Cope (a very important and especially interesting American paleontologist in the late 19th and early 20th centuries - "The Guilded Dinosaur" by Mark Jaffe is a very interesting story about the academic war between him and arch-competitor Othniel Marsh). May people would know this animal as Eohippus, the Dawn Horse, a dog-sized proto-horse with 4 toes on the forefeet and 3 on the hind.

you can appeal to the Supreme Authority of the universe...?

Fossilization is a process that takes place only under certain conditions. Time is of no importance.

[Fuzz]

God didn’t have enough water at his disposal?

[going hot]

‘Sides, the truth will turn up, shortly.

[going hot]

Well, there is that.

[Lakeshark]

Uh, OK. The next time you have a brain tumor make sure you ask your housekeeper what to do about it...
