In most people's minds, fossils and Evolution go hand in hand. In reality, fossils are a great embarrassment to Evolutionary theory and offer strong support for the concept of Creation. If Evolution were true, we should find literally millions of fossils that show how one kind of life slowly and gradually changed to another kind of life.

Transition forms are missing by the millions. What we do find are separate and complex kinds, pointing to Creation. — Gary Parker
