Straightening out that misunderstanding of yours is only the first step in leading you through all the evidence which, taken *together* leads to the inescapable conclusion that evolution is the best explanation for the history of life on Earth.

Thank you so much. I really love it when an evolutionist gets high and mighty. You are a virtual fountain of condescension and are only engaging in what is an inevitable response at some point. (e.g. when you disagree, sink to insults.)

I will allow that much of what is bandied around by most people is flawed on either side of this discussion.

Since you are so wise in the ways of science, perhaps you could further elucidate me. Where would you place the trilobite, taxonomically speaking? Would this ancient creature be near the bottom due to its age, or near the top due to its complexity?

The Origins of Trilobites. They're arthropods. Their closest living relatives are horseshoe crabs, whose larvae are even called "trilobite larvae" from the close resemblance.

And that's another funny thing, how baby frogs look like fish, hatchling insects look like worms, and hatchling lampreys look like lancelets (primitive chordates), and that in each of these cases there is other evidence (fossil, and sometimes molecular) for an ancestral relationship between the groups involved. (That is, that amphibians did arise from fish, etc.)
