First of all, let's try not to follow this template. (Yeah, right!)

OK, now here's one decent-sized sample of the thing that supposedly doesn't exist. Make us all proud!

So where are all the Transitional Fossils laughing boy??

One of my favorite sequences is in The Fossil Record: Evolution or "Scientific Creation" by Clifford A. Cuffey. Be sure to read Section 5 which is about the reptile-to-mammal series.

Notice that there are several articles about evolution on that website. It's run by the people who make money by prospecting for oil and other minerals. If creationism were more accurate than normal geology and paleontology, they'd use it to make even more money. But nobody has ever figured out how to do that.

Morton's Demon - an essay by Glenn Morton explaining some of the psychological problems that creationists have. Why I left Young-earth Creationism is his essay on the subject. He says

But eventually, by 1994 I was through with young-earth creationISM. Nothing that young-earth creationists had taught me about geology turned out to be true. I took a poll of my ICR graduate friends who have worked in the oil industry. I asked them one question.

"From your oil industry experience, did any fact that you were taught at ICR, which challenged current geological thinking, turn out in the long run to be true? ,"

That is a very simple question. One man, Steve Robertson, who worked for Shell grew real silent on the phone, sighed and softly said 'No!' A very close friend that I had hired at Arco, after hearing the question, exclaimed, "Wait a minute. There has to be one!" But he could not name one. I can not name one. No one else could either.

Before I answer that question, I have a question for you that will have a bearing on my answer.

Logically, how many transitional fossils are necessary to show *that portion* of Evolution has occurred as suggested by the SToE?

"You did read the book right, or are you just postering for your envirothugs?

I not only read the evolution portion of her book but I read a number of refutations of her ideas on evolution, something I suspect you have not done.
