So funny. The evolutionists dated the fossils by the rocks. They also like to date rocks by the fossils. Who wants to try to prove they didn't? Thanks.
Standard procedures of biostratigraphy are absolutely and completely independent of evolution. They would work just as well if a wizard replaced all the fossils with, say, coins bearing unique but arbitrary numeric codes for each species.
Besides, they were invented not by "the evolutionists" but by creationists. The proof? All of the major geologic systems (save only the Silurian) were in place before Darwin even started college. How could these methods be based, via circular reasoning, on evolution when they were invented by creationists and applied by creationist, all before any geologist at all was an evolutionist of any description?
If you had lived a few hundred years ago, you would be arguing that the earth was the center of the solar system. You do not still cling to that old belief, do you?
