Yes. Because it is the cataloging of vast fossil evidence. The layering is always consistent with increased complexity over time. This is well beyond "guessing." The number of fossils are in the billions -- I have several right here on my desk. They aren't made up like biblical scripture was made up by goat herders 2000 years ago.
"They aren't made up like biblical scripture was made up by goat herders 2000 years ago."
What your fossils fail to explain is why modern man was smart enough to take mastery over the earth. Your evolutionary theory will never work because there isn't a missing link that bridges the gap between ape and man! It will never be found, because it doesn't exist! But you can believe your distant cousins swung in the trees if you want. And they were preceeded in genetical heritage by the single celled amoeba. So they were first plant, then reptile, then mammal! First cold-blooded, then warm blooded.
Mine were created by an omnipresent God in his own image and likeness, He who breathed life into this earth.

Dr.Fossil Thumper...the "Naked Goat"
A goat like you knows nothing...a goatherder could know a "20 billion year old" universe God could create in a day. And a tree that God created instantly would have rings...hundreds of them. The Bible does predict that Man's fantasy knowledge would increase and his spiritual---common sense would die.
Goats if they don't live on the mountains don't have enough brains to survive. Darwinism is living in the clouds--a few clouds--but the goats like you are well fed--NURSED---fattened in a goat pen---EVOLUTION!
You need to take a walk and exercise your brain...strain it a little!
If the world is limited by your brain---thought processes...well what do we have---talking goats thumping fossils---pathetic!
Nothing like kicking off a crevo thread with a bang.
Biblical scripture was not made up by goat herders 200 years ago. Some of the earlier parts of Genesis may be based on oral traditions that go back 10,000 years or more. Biblical scripture is also inspired by God (at least for me). Even in a naturalistic sense there is a tremendous amount of truths in scripture. For example, the Bible says sodomy is bad. Science has finally caught up with the goat herders in this instance.
