lol...There is no "fossil record." That's a made up fairy tale that evolutionist use just like they use the geo-ILL-logic column. Evolution is pure comedy and anyone with any common sense and powers of observation knows it. It should be a dead issue but the desire to replace God with science is too tempting for men of evil and fools like Richard Dawkins who cling to credibility with their severe delusions of grandeur via fraud and ignorance of the intricacy of God's design. ?

More like crackpotwv.

Except for, y'know, the literal millions of fossils we already found.
Supersaurus leg displayed in the Wien Natural History Museum (BTW I had an opportunity to view it just this Saturday):

I dare you to deny the existence of something that could crush you if it fell on you, fam.

Most of my stuff is boxed up at the moment so I didn't find much, but fortunately I found the best piece. This is a piece of petrified wood (a primitive conifer or a cycad) with some other things mixed in. Unfortunately I can't give a detailed description because I don't actually know what species these things are, and I have no degree of expertise in geology or paleontology (but they are good hobbies).

There are striations visible that are in the orientation the original wood grain would have been in. Also, in roughly the center of the image you can see an imprint of a shell. On the left of the fossil there is a blackish-grayish area; this is a carbon rich deposit that formed as some of the plant matter decayed.

And on the side there is an area with better preservation. Looking to the upper right of this piece of the petrified wood a small semi-circular bit is visible, this is a part of a crinoid stem that got preserved under the tree. All the little circles and dots are fossils of some sort too, I really wish I knew what they are. There's just so damn many of them.
As to where it was found. It was found in the lower part of a limestone quarry in Globe Arizona. The best I could do for placing the age of the fossil was early Permian or Pennsylvanian (upper Carboniferous period) as all I had to work with for dating was geological maps.
@The Reptilian Jew
That thing is ginormous!
So, all the fossils in all the Museums of Natural History all over the world are imaginary?
Honey, it's religions that are made up fairy tales. You do NOT have common sense, and you seem to lack in powers of observation too.
The Theory of Evolution does not replace God, it simply follows the evidence, which is what science is all about. IF God designed the world, he designed it with a complete lack of evidence for the existence of himself.
"men of evil and fools"
Takes one to know one, apparently.
Was that supposed to be a question? Because I think the answer is "no". Hard to tell due to the question's malformation.
"... and anyone with any common sense and powers of observation knows it."
It's never a good idea to try to make predictions based entirely on factors with which you are not even passingly familiar.
@dxdydz
That's a really nice find, kudos man. Palaeonthology is a cool hobby.
As for the leg: I know. It's ridiculous, my jaw dropped when I first noticed it just standing in the corner. I had the privilege of visiting the Vienna Natural History Museum just this Saturday, seeing this thing in the flesh (pun intended) was an experience for sure.
Cracker, have you never even taken a walk in the hills and found fossil shells and stuff in the rocks? Seriously, dude, millions and millions of people have done it. It's not out of your reach. And someday you too will own shoes and can find your own fossils.
@ The Reptilian Jew, others: He's not denying fossils, per se, only the structure and narrative built up by studying them. He probably thinks they were all laid down in the flood or something.
This, and other quotes in its vein, sums up the problem with trying to convince someone who believes in an omnipotent deity of anything . When the deity could just have changed the world on a whim for some reason, why bother with any sort of logical cause and effect?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
