Hello, dis Habilis here. Habilis has more big problems need tell. If earth only 10,000 or 8,000 year old, and if big flood kill whole world, then all fossils lived BEFORE flood. This big problem. Some people say all fossils made by flood. Also oil, chalk deposits made by big waters that cover whole earth. Oil and chalk comes from living creatures that die and gets squashed. This cant be: if flood make all fossils, oil, chalk; then all those critters lived before flood. All alive at same time. That one big, but not one big happy family. This why: fossil record shows countless individuals that lived and died, many generations over many years, so many, very many. More than all visible stars. If all alive before flood (no fossils came before big waters) then all animals jam packed into earth like tiny fishes in tin can. If you no beleve Habilis read here: [quote]"Robert E. Sloan, a paleontologist at the University of Minnesota, has studied the Karroo Formation. He asserts that the animals fossilized there range from the size of a small lizard to the size of a cow, with the average animal perhaps the size of a fox. A minute's work with a calculator shows that, if the 800 billion animals in the Karoo formation could be resurrected, there would be twenty-one of them for every acre of land on earth. Suppose we assume (conservatively, I think) that the Karroo Formation contains 1 percent of the vertebrate [land] fossils on earth. Then when the Flood began, there must have been at least 2100 living animals per acre, ranging from tiny shrews to immense dinosaurs. To a noncreationist mind, that seems a bit crowded."[/quote] http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-noahs-ark.html But problem bigger. Fossils only part of animals that died. If flood true, animals that no become fossil all alive together with future fossil animal before disaster. Makes number bigger. Problem worse. Habilis want know what you thinks. If so many animals alive, how squirrel live when sharing tree with bazillion squirrel cousins? Habilis sees you later. Goes eat Manioc.
