In the
Cambrian Explosion, most of the major types of life appear suddenly in the
fossil record. This fact is widely
known, but what is often over looked is that there is a global unconformity at
this point indicating a tremendous erosional event.
Writing in
the New York Times a few years ago,
Carl Zimmer made this comment:
It took a global flood to tap that capacity [to trigger evolution] ... Shanan Peters of the University of Wisconsin and Robert Gaines of Pomona College ... offered evidence that the Cambrian Explosion was preceded by a rise in sea level that submerged vast swaths of land, eroding the drowned rocks.
Rather than
instigate rapid evolution, we propose that this global flood was the beginning
of a Singular Epoch of Rapid Geologic Activity (SERGA) that explains the bulk
of the Earth's vast sediments. Cultures
from around the world have traditions of this event.
How can the
general order of the fossils be explained if we base our new discoveries on
this assumption (SERGA)? In a worldwide
watery disaster sea life would buried first then land animals, bird tracks then
birds - just as we do find. If essential
types of life remain static throughout geologic time, then the fossil sequence
does not prove Darwinism, but indicates changing conditions during a great
flood. Likewise, once we accept the
stasis of Essential Types of Life (ETL's), the most reasonable option is to
reject evolution and the mainstream geologic timescale.
Louis
Agassiz was professor of Natural History at University of Neuchâtel and is best
known as the "Father of the Ice Age."
In 1874, the Atlantic Monthly
posthumously published his paper on "Evolution and Permanence of Type." Agassiz was right about Darwin:
Darwin has placed the subject [of evolution] on a different basis from that of all his predecessors, and has brought to the discussion a vast amount of well-arranged information, a convincing cogency of argument ... Indeed it might be said that he treated his subject according to the best scientific methods, had he not frequently overstepped the boundaries of actual knowledge and allowed his imagination to supply the links which science does not furnish.
Agassiz argued
that the fossil record says "NO Evolution NO!" ...
As a palaeontologist I have from the beginning stood aloof from this new theory of transmutation [evolution], now so widely admitted in the scientific world. Its doctrines, in fact, contradict what the animal forms buried in the rocky strata of our earth tell us ...
YES Virginia,
there is evidence for a global flood, a youthful planet and demonstrating the flaws
of Darwinism. Our book YES - Young Earth Science provides ample
info from science and history to point to a young earth. Please visit TotalYouth.us for the latest YES
