There are some illustrations at the original article.

PING. [This list is for the evolution side of evolution threads, and some other science topics like cosmology. Long-time list members get all pings, but can request evo-only status. New additions will be evo-only, but can request all pings. FReepmail me to be added or dropped. Specify all pings or you'll get evo-pings only.]

The gaps keep getting smaller.

An enterprising creationist will instead point out that the number of gaps is growing. There was one gap before, now there are two!

Still doesn't change my mind on one point; nobody was around in the beginning to record the facts

God keeps getting more and more mischievous with the red herrings in the fossil record.

That's it???? One bone????
The religion of the Evol-Doers can sure make a lot of theology from very little - and nebulous - evidence.

Talk about the miracle of loaves and fishes.

What a crock of cr@p

This article nearly caused me to abandon my faith in God as creator ! ! !
I almost put my faith in the fairy tale of junk science! Whats the latest imperical fairy tale ?
, Oh yeah, I heard it the other day " all of a sudden an explosion of life rapidly evolved as a result of increased oxygen in the atmosphere. Billions of DNA molecules with infinitely complex codes, appeared at random and aranged themselves into brains, eyes, ears, lungs and gills, etc all at once."
Yes I believe oh lord scientist
.... you win !

Without getting into it too much. I have the strong feeling that this will be rebuffed once they let some scientists with a different viewpoint examine this fossil. So don't jump the gun claiming victory.

...describe a remarkable fossil that bridges the gap between fish and amphibian..."

A TADPOLE does that... so what? That's supposed to prove that the evolution is reasonable?

Why yes they do : )

Evolution still working out reality and eventuallity....or...Human reasoning still lacking.

"They're trying to find themselves an audience. Their deductions need applause." - Genesis, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.

This is a classic example of the "jumping to conclusions" for which the church of Evolution is notorious.

I guess this bone just settles everything. Reminds me of a certain pigs tooth.
