proof of the flood is the fossils that were found of sea creatures in the rock layers that cover all the continents‚ but more importantly on the top of the highest mountains. An example of this is that most of these rock layers in the walls of Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon is more than a mile above sea level and contains marine fossils. There are even fossilized shellfish that has even been found in the Himalayas. The fossil graveyards that have been found are fossils that have been preserved wonderfully

determined relative to one another (from oldest to most recent). This can be a local series of events or be applied to global events. The eras and periods of the geological time column were established using relative time (mostly based upon the fossil content). Absolute Time - The discovery of radiometric dating allowed geologists to assign a numerical age to the formation of certain rocks. Fixing how old they actually were in billions (Ga)‚ millions (Ma) or thousands (Ka) of years before the

found it to be fascinating that not only was the Basilasourus a sea creature‚ but also closely related to the Killer Whale of today. Not only was I unaware of those facts‚ but I also had no clue that the state fossil of Alabama was the Basilasourus‚ or that the state even had an official fossil. After learning about the “King of the Lizards”‚ I definitely expect myself to research more on this creature‚ due to the fact that I found it so interesting. As our tour continued‚ our next stop was the Dr

Paleontologists are clearing the gap one discovery at a time. With the amazing feats they’ve accomplished‚ all corners of the Earth’s land will soon be completely discovered. Paleontology‚ the overall study of prehistoric life which includes the study of fossils to determine organisms’ evolution and interactions with each other and their environments‚ relates closely with other sciences. It doesn’t conduct experiments to observe objects rather than explaining causes of why such things happen. It’s been documented

The fossil records‚ Distant starlight theory and Big Bang theory all show no concrete evidence for an old earth. 3.The lack of fossil records ‚ to link both man and apes fossil records clearly speaks for them not having had one.
