I'd say the odds that you've ever actually bothered to look at ANYTHING in the fossil record is essentially nil.

Your assumption is incorrect.

Well, excuse me Mr. Conceited Intellectual Giant Elitist.
You just go ahead and adhere to your religious beliefs and I'll stick with mine, okay?
If you believe humans "evolved" from pond slime billions of years ago, rather than being uniquely created as human beings by the Creator - you've got a hell of a lot more faith than I have. And a bleak hereafter.

Note that fossils separated by more than about a hundred thousand years cannot show anything about how a species arose. Think about it: there could have been a smooth transition, or the species could have appeared suddenly, but either way, if there aren't enough fossils, we can't tell which way it happened.
(from the informative link you supplied)

There ain't no evidence otherwise - but we sure cannot accept that humans were created, can we?
We gotta believe in evolution.
To do otherwise would not be "scientific".
We'd have to admit that there is a God.
That is unacceptable to us highly learned, evolved, minds.
