Two hundred years is a long time on the pot without producing anything

I was thinking the same thing while reviewing the fossil record for transitional macro-evolutionary forms. :o)

For an up to date status (2004) on ID I would recommend Doubts About Darwin: A History of Intelligent Design by Thomas Woodward.

You should have asked a FReeper for help

This is a very interesting set of essays:

The Fossil Record: Evolution or "Scientific Creation" by Clifford A. Cuffey

You may have seen

this in other crevo threads. It's from essay 5. Cuffey says

As previously stated, a succession of transitional fossils exists that link reptiles (Class Reptilia) and mammals (Class Mammalia). These particular reptiles are classifie as Subclass Synapsida. Presently, this is the best example of th e transformation of one major higher taxon into another. The morphologic changes that took place are well documented by fossils, beginning with animals essentially 100% reptilian and resulting in animals essentially 100% mammalian. Therefore, I have chosen this as the example to summarize in more detail (Table 1, Fig. 1).

At least read essay 5, and study the table there.

The web site is interesting, it's the home of the Gulf Coast Section of the Society of Economic Paleontologists and Mineralogists. These guys make big $$ prospecting for oil and other minerals.

If YEC Flood geology were more accurate, they'd use it and make more money.

But instead, they publish articles about normal geology and paleontology.

We can say that the market has decided that Flood geology is false, and that evolution is true.
