No one seems to be able to say anything about your exploding dot (high school "science" textbook), it must be the embarrassment that keeps you and yours from explaining just how it all started.
Radiometric dating, assumptions and speculation do not equal facts, unless of course you were there bazillions of years ago and can vouch that the test is even remotely accurate.

"The absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages between major transitions in organic design, indeed our inability, even in our imagination, to construct functional intermediates in many cases, has been a persistent and nagging problem for gradualistic accounts of evolution." - Stephen Jay Gould (Professor of Geology and Paleontology, Harvard University), "Is a new and general theory of evolution emerging?" Paleobiology, vol. 6(1), January 1980, p. 127
"Contrary to what most scientists write, the fossil record does not suppor t the Darwinian theory of evolution because it is this theory (there are several) which we use to interpret the fossil record. By doing so we are guilty of circular reasoning if we then say the fossil record supports this theory." - Ronald R. West, PhD (paleoecology and geology) (Assistant Professor of Paleobiology at Kansas State University)
