And I suppose you will be as forthcoming detailing THESE supposed genetic problems for the theory as you have been about the fossil record? That is to say, NOT AT ALL.

Where did the hoofed and winged mammals come from? Where did the dinosaurs come from?

The evidence of their emergence from earlier species may not be complete enough or gradual enough for your satisfaction; but they do show that these species did not exist before a certain time. Where do you suppose they came from?

Do you think either the genetic record or the fossil record supports their emergence all at the same time and the same place? Perhaps some few thousand years ago?

You are getting closer to the problem with the fossil record. The record contains many creatures great and small as observed by Darwin and others, it just does not contain the many transition form that would tell us where “they come from”.
The fossil record tells us that the life forms are there, it just does not tell us where they come from. We are making some progress, and I was hoping that we may perhaps move out of the comparative morphology and dirt to other areas.
