And do you suppose that humans and T-Rex’s lived at the same time such that those two interposed fossils would ever be found in the same strata?

Why does the fossil record always show a different page out of the same story?

Why are there only extinct temperate fossils buried under the Antarctic ice, but no modern species?

Could it be that the fossil record, as incomplete as we all acknowledge it is, shows a story about what life forms inhabited the Earth at what times and in what sequence?

It seems the easiest explanation to me for why we only find rather small and mostly marsupial mammals in strata laid down during the age of the dinosaurs.

Could it be that it really doesn't? That it's just wishful thinking by people who want it to look that way so that they can eliminate God from the equation?

And that proves what, exactly? Besides the fact that it appears that marsupial type animals existed in proximity to dinosaurs?
