But what does PoliticalChic consider that to be?
illogical and filled with fallacies....
Let's see how easy it is to show you to be a fool.
I gave Darwin's theory in the OP....in his own words:
3..For purposes of clarity,
this is Darwin's perspective, the pillars on which his thesis rests:
The
universal common ancestry of all living things: all had
a single common ancestorway back in the distant past..."all the organic beings that have ever lived on this earth have descended from some one [ONE SINGLE] primordial form"
Darwin, "On The Origin of Species," p.484.
Then, via the accumulation of finite, beneficial changes....finally, the diversity of life present today.
This just isn't your day, is it.
What's the problem with what Darwin said?
Long ago before telescopes a smart guy like Darwin name Bruno Giordano told christians that the stars were other suns and the universe was bigger than they believed and they burned him alive for blasphemy. Darwin would have been killed to. That's how bad your theory is. It is threatened with truth facts logic and science.
And so even religion has evolved. Lol
"What's the problem with what Darwin said?"
The problem is that sites have been found that clearly show
sudden new organisms, with no evidence of 'evolutionary attempts' to produce same, e.g., Burgess Shale, Chengjiang in China....
the 'Cambrian Explosion' of new diversity...
7. How to counter this?
If the Ediacaran fauna can be
a. shown to be a structural antecedent to Cambrian fossils found in Burgess, or Chengjiang,...and
b. if their occurrence can be pushed back into the Precambrian period...
..well, then....that goes a long way toward boosting Darwin's stock!
If neither.....Darwin is destroyed.
8. At first, dating suggested that the Ediacaran fossils appeared between 700 and 640 million years ago....but recent, more accurate radiometrics now fix the dates for the
first appearance of these fauna at 570-565 million years ago....and their last appearance about 543 million years ago- that means 13 million years prior to the start of the Cambrian explosion.
Grotzinger et al., "Biostratigraphic and Geochronologic Constraints in Early Animal Evolution."
Biostratigraphic and Geochronologic Constraints on Early Animal Evolution
9. Alas....
none of 'em are of the hard shelled type identified with the Cambrian Explosion.
More to the point....it would be a bald-faced lie to claim that the Ediacaran fossils represent ancestral forms of the Cambrian animals, or, as some Darwin supporters claim, that they provide examples of such forms.
In this game....two strikes and you're out.
