Where are the things undergoing fossilization today? Richard Dawkins is undergoing fossilization. Check this out: Richard Dawkins goes insane.

Does he really belive this? It seems so.
40 million years ago the Sun was touching the earth, if its present rate of ‘downsizing’ (shrinking at 2 1/2 miles in radius a year) is figured back in time. Even if the rate is slowed - how long ago was it hot enough on earth to boil everything here?
There must be a limit for the sun and earth like the ‘Roche’ limit established for the moon and earth.

I think the dotted lines should be enough proof for anyone that a putative ancestor of whales and hippos had a common ancestor that crawled out the sea and then some of the descendants of that ancestor crawled back into the sea because everyone knows swimming is a lot more fun than walking, while other descendants like the hippo just really couldn't make up their minds and so walk around under water and even breed under water which I suppose happens a lot with in ground pools too since only low class people and hippos or people who look like hippos, would do such things in an above ground pool (please!, no personal experiences).
That's not to say I've been looking over the hedgerow or anything but the trailers here ARE real close together.
And speaking of nostrils (no, not him!) why would a whale only have one and the hippos two?
And Dawkin’s Dots are like a line drawn from a floating log to a Los Angeles class nuclear submarine showing how one evolved into the other with a Jon boat as an intermediate. As I tell the engineers, “You can build anything with a pencil.” including wall charts.
Maybe Dawkins should get a subscription to Ancestry.Com, to track down the family members of whales, they're pretty good, they even found several of me, one of which too old to be me and must've been a fake.

You just can’t debate with irrational people.
Notice that this statement doesn’t actually take a side, but I’ll bet the reader knows which side they’re on.

Watch the daily White House press briefing. You will see plenty of intermediate fossils in the press corps.

I imagine all the eugenicists mentioned in your link also believe the earth is round & orbits the sun.
So, I guess you believe the earth is flat & is orbited by the sun, for surely if the evil Darwin & his fellow scientists are wrong about evolution, wrong about eugenics, then they must then be wrong about everything!
That is your premise, isn’t it?
You have something in common with Al Gore - willful ignorance!

You wrote:
"40 million years ago the Sun was touching the earth, if its present rate of downsizing (shrinking at 2 1/2 miles in radius a year) is figured back in time."
No, the Sun is not "shrinking 2.5 miles" a year. While the Sun is losing mass as it converts Hydrogen to Helium, that loss of mass is small when compared to the whole. The "shrinkage" that can be measured is a rhythmic "puffing" in and out that all stars undergo, as the big ball of plasma balances thermal outward expansion with gravitational contraction.
You see, gravity wants to collapse the ball of plasma, under its own "weight", as it were. As the plasma is squeezed under gravity, just like any other gas, it heats up, and the addtional pressure allows for MORE fusion to take place, HEATING the plasma even more. When the thermal expansive forces overtake gravity, the star "puffs" back out. The plasma cools some, the pressures are slightly less, and less fusion takes place. Once a tad cooler, the gravitational contraction resumes.
During a star's "main sequence" lifetime, this pulsing in and out is the balancing act it maintains between heat and gravity, until the star runs out of fuel.
In fact, our Sun is a 5% variable star, and not as "constant" as one might think. This "puffing" can be detected in stars other than our own, with the proper equipment.
It is patently dishonest for some people to take JUST ONE PART of some observation, then run it off to some extreme, in an attempt to bolster their position. You could just as easily used the OTHER side of the observation, the "puffing out", and say that in just 40 million years, the Sun would be touching the Earth. It is this tendency of creationists to "cherry pick" the facts they want to present that irritates more scientifically grounded individuals.
I know, I know, you will say that scientists "cherry pick" data, and some certainly do. However, over the course of time, other, more honest researchers refute dishonest researchers in a process known over all as "peer review". "Peer review" is not instantaneous, and might take years, but it DOES happen. That is why we don't talk about "ether" as the medium for light, for example.
Hey, "TRUTH MATTERS".

Thank you for that explanation. There are many other questions that don’t seem to have answers: Roche limit, gravitational decelerization, salt in sea, population, age of Redwoods, documented human history, Guadaloupe woman, - these and many other point to a brief age for the earth.
If the moon spun off the earth - why are moon rocks so different from anything found here?
If the planets spun off of the sun - how fast was the sun spinning? Was the sun much smaller back then? Why are some of the moons spinning in a different direction then other moons around the same planet?

Lots of places. But you knew that.
Shouldn't you be asking, "Why are there any fossils at all? Why are there all those fossils of extinct animals anyway? Why do those fossils all seem to be situated in the strata in accordance to the evil geologists/evolutionary biologists timelines? Why is God deceiving us with all these fossils? Is Loki the one true god?"
Right?

But they have long planted their fairy tales into the minds of the public. And their wise men high atop the Supremes gave them standing to preach their methodology.
They are the 'gods' of education and now they intend to put their 'system' into action and call it health care. Just like Bama and company it is not 'wise' to question the gods about there being none not even one supposed intermediate fossil.
What has been formulated is the 'system' think model that gives them their stature to select their fittest and least fit. Taxpayers are the 'life' that keeps their model alive. Just like liberals are want to say our Constitution is a living breathing document..... Liberals are the hot air that are the most fit to evolve words over time to keep themselves fit and to destroy those they deem least fit.
They have a pretend beginning where they refused to even acknowledge they cannot recreate, that supposed ordinary hot steaming pond scum, and there are warehouses full of literal ancient fossils, and then a very long black hole in space and time. Followed by wallah out of nowhere, human bones that are not of the age of their ancient fossils and they created a fairy tale to claim a continuum from one age to the next age.

Lots of places. But you knew that. No. I don't know it. Where can I go to see things that are half organic, and half mineral? Tell me. BTW, Pompeii seems like an excellent place given the fairy tale about how fossils are formed but SFAIK no fossilization has taken place there.
Shouldn't you be asking, "Why are there any fossils at all?
I do wonder about this, yes. I don't believe the conventional wisdom, but it's obvious that they exist - sort of like life itself.
Why do those fossils all seem to be situated in the strata in accordance to the evil geologists/evolutionary biologists timelines?
You're kidding, right?
(Do you have any idea how those evil geologists date those strata?)
