Isn't that getting about as wacky as Jacko?
And don't they were created by Satan to tempt us, he's not supposed to able to create anything is he?
Or is Satan just making us think that we see the fossils and the museums are really empty?

because anything that proves their Bible not to be the 100% literal truth destroys their faith.
edit: David M...so Noah put all of the diverse animal and plant life on his ark...even the animal species that are newly discovered in the rainforest? C'mon now, you CAN'T be that gullible. The only other explanation is that Noah took a few species of animals, and then they all evolved into the diverse animal population that now exists on this planet. So...either way, your Creation story doesn't hold water.

They're lieing to try and cover up the fact that they don't know the answer to your question. Or they're just being ignorant and made up an answer that seemed to make sense and go along with they're beliefs. I for one think that fossils proclaim the truth that there was a world wide flood around 4000 years ago. Which is talked about in the Bible.
Genesis 8
Which in turn proclaims the truth that there is a God who has created the universe. The only thing Satan is doing with fossils is deceiving. Honestly, how can you still hold your faith in evolution without any transitional fossils? How can you hold your faith in evolution when people find human fossils right next to dinosaur ones? How can you hold your faith in evolution when there is no evidence for it which cannot be interpreted in another way? How can you hold your faith in evolution when you cannot prove anything about it? Seems very unreasonable to me.

Very simple, in the bible we are given a time from Adam to Jesus, but not from creation. There is no a time from God creating the heavens and the earth. All we know is that God created the heavens and the earth and that the earth began chaos.
Taking a scientific theory that explains facts has nothing to do with revelation. God reveals, man observes. Facts are man observations with man's limitations. Man can observe the heavens and the earth, but not before it.
Here is a simple question: God created Adam and Eve. How long were Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden before being expelled to earth. Note that Adam and Eve were not expelled to a newly created earth.
Answer: There is a revelation which you can believe or not. There are many reason not be believe, but fossils are not one of them.

I have not heard that one. But I DID hear a fundamentalist creationist who actually claimed dinosaurs were on the ark with Noah. Then the story gets really bizarre with the dinos jumping off the ark first and therefore ending up in the mud as the water withdrew.
Some people will twist science to fit their philosophies. I think the fossil thing is another example. Why would god do that? Does he play tricks on his creations? Surely he has better things to do.

I don't say that. The fossil record is there because the plants, animals, etc. were there. Period. And this in no way challenges my faith. The Bible's account of creation was written for ancient people in a way that they could understand, not to serve as a modern science textbook.
But that doesn't mean that scientists and others are not guilty of misrepresenting things to support their theories.

My heavens, I on no account have been flashed, yet I did accidentally flash some people as quickly as. i replaced into in the well being midsection a while back and desperate to take a stoll to the merchandising section. nicely, I wasn't thinking approximately what i replaced into wearing and, enable's in basic terms say that those well being midsection robes do not bypass away a lot to the mind's eye on the backside. The nurse got here up from in the back of me and placed a blanket over my shoulders . . . i replaced into thinking why it replaced right into a sprint drafty back there!

I'm probably going to be abused big time for this, but I think it's because they take the Bible literally and don't truly believe in the omnipotence of 'God'. The way I look at it is that if 'God' is omnipotent then 'God' could create the world, universe etc however they chose and why not do it via the process of evolution, it provides a rather extensive field of learning, right?

Fundamentalist christians especially will use words like "interpretation" and" context" to shave square pegs to fit in round holes, The bible has so many questions that can be asked that will solicate a slew of explanations, each one more absurd than the last. Not one based on logic or reason and all rely on not being questioned.

It is primarily Christians ill-informed about the fossil record, who have been brow-beaten into believing that the millions of fossils "prove" evolution, who say this. On the other hand, with millions of fossils available and only a very few transitional forms (and those debatable), how can you look at the facts and believe anything except a form of creation?

If so called christiansd say that,then they are Biblically illiterate. The Bible speaks of dinosaurs in the book of Job. Thhis world is millions of years old and the Bible declares it.
