”We Have All the Fossils”
We often have different interpretations of the same fossil.
Some time ago, an evolutionist tried to discredit Darwin doubters by claiming that he and other neo-Darwinists had all the fossils. His assertion is somewhat odd, because as Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis has said, we all have the same fossils.
The creation-evolution debate is not about who has the fossils but rather about what we infer about them.
Most fossils displayed in museums are actually not fossils at all but reconstructions made on the basis of a few bones. An artist has often given a Darwinian bias to a reconstruction, as seen in the case of Lucy (Australopithecus afarensis).
Most fossils remind us of the global flood of Noah’s day.
