The point of my post #57 was to show you some of the fossil evidence. You had written in #54 "There should be tons of fossil evidence. There isn't."
I don't expect you to know all of the details of these specimens, as that takes years of study. But the point I am trying to make is that you are dismissing a couple of hundred years of evidence by thousands of scientists, with little actual knowledge on your part of the field, theories, or data. You are acting from your religious belief.
Yeah, I pretty much accept around that time period. There is a lot of flood evidence. I personally find it important though that every culture has had an almost identical flood story seperate of each other. That's pretty cool.
On the flood--I have been in a lot of residential sites in the western US which cross-cut the 4,000-5,000 time period and there is no evidence of a large scale flood. Rather, we have general continuity of stratigraphy, occupation, pollen, macrobotanical (plant parts) remains, radiocarbon dates, etc.
But also there are no trees before the supposed time of the flood. They all magically start at around 4000 or so years.
And I know you didn't expect me to know all the details of those fossils. What I'm wondering though is whether we know that the fossil evidence shows the progression of the evolution of the animals(or humans) or whether we have little jumps that could be seperate animal or human groups. Like say a black, white, and Asian face are all different but the same species. Perhaps Neanderthals are another segment of the homo sapiens who were very stupid and so got assimilated. Just wondering.
I'm not trying to argue with you. Just trying to learn like the student I am. I am acting from my religious belief in that I personally know that there is a God. From there I'm trying to see which one makes more sense.
