So far none of the questions answered at the beginning were answered by any of the Kings Horses or any of the Kings Men. Where are those transitional fossils let alone the missing link.

You might enjoy reading The Fossil Record: Evolution or "Scientific Creation" by Clifford A. Cuffey. Section 5 contains a discussion of the reptile to mammal trasition. It is interesting that the website belongs to . These people use standard geology and biology to make lots of money prospecting for oil. If creationism were true, they'd use it instead.
