Do Fossil Records Prove Evolution & Disprove Creation?
I am teaching one of the adult Sunday school classes at Spring Warrior this semester. Wednesday’s lesson will be the second of a two-part lesson on evolution. (See Book VIII in the Joe Corley Bible Basics series.) As part of my preparation, I have search the Answers in Genesis site and found an article on fossil records, a portion of which is quoted from below: The reality of the geologic column is predicated on the belief that fossils have restricted ranges in rock strata. In actuality, as more and more fossils are found, the ranges of fossils keep increasing. I provide a few recent examples of this, and then show that stratigraphic-range extension is not the exception but the rule. The constant extension of ranges simultaneously reduces the credibility of the geologic column and organic evolution, and makes it easier for the Genesis Flood to explain an increasingly-random fossil record.
