Finding an answer to Darwin’s Dilemma
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1751494/posts

New findings reported today shed light on why, after three billion years of mostly single-celled evolution, these large animals suddenly appeared in the fossil record.

This thread doesn't indicate that scientists believed more that single celled evolution occurred before the Cambrian explosion but that no evidence for it was found. It is clear that they believe the evolution occurred during that time AFTER the earth thawed out, within a few million years.

So tell me, from you perspective, why did God make such a great diversity of animals appear 540 million years ago and modern humans only in the last 100k or so?

"Lack of evidence of diversity is not proof of a lack of diversity." Nor is lack of fossils proof of non-existance; it's just lack of fossils. It's just what the fossil record currently shows. It doesn't mean it's an accurate representation of what actually happened.

OK, maybe we need to start over.

I thought you were asking me to defend "darwins dilema" of how to explain the Cambrian explosion, but you almost seem to be trying to defend it yourself.
