No, what makes it OK is that it works. Science does progress. Yes science does work. The problem with your argument is that paleontology is not science and it certainly cannot prove descent.
If you were to let a hundred paleontologists loose in a cemetery, take away the gravestones and ask them to show from the cadavers who descended from who, they would be totally unable to do it even though the specimens they would have at hand are almost perfect and much much better than what they base their extravagant claims of descent on.

What kind of stupid example is that?
You would have thousands of creatures from the SAME time, NOT spread out over millions of years.
You could probably come close due to front facial features, but to say that they tell the difference enough to tell that they were related, when they are most likely ALL the same race, and all the same close genetic stock is ridiculous. Of course they are related!!
It is a silly example, and just wrong.
Seems you are clueless about paleontology as well, but why am I not surprised?
