Traditional evolutionary theory predicts a fossil record that would contain:

  • Simple life forms gradually appearing with similar predecessors.
  • Simple life forms gradually changing over time into more-complex forms.
  • Countless transitional links between kinds of creatures.
  • Beginnings of and partially completed features such as new limbs, bones and organs.

The biblical account of creation predicts a fossil record that would contain:

  • Complex life forms suddenly appearing with no evolutionary predecessors.
  • Complex life forms multiplying "after their kinds" (Genesis 6:20), but with limited variety within those kinds.
  • No transitional links between kinds of creatures.
  • No partial features such as new limbs, bones and organs; all parts are complete and fully functional.

After years of study and research, what does the fossil record show?

  • Complex life forms suddenly appearing with no evolutionary predecessors.
  • Complex life forms multiplying "after their kinds," but with limited variety within each species.
  • No transitional links between kinds of creatures.
  • No partial features such as new limbs, bones and organs; all parts are complete and fully functional.
