Since the fossil record can be interpreted more than one way, a theory that depends on only one of those possibities relies on a philosophical construct to eliminate the others. In other words, those who believe the evolution hypothesis (unwittingly) choose a interpetation of the fossil record that supports that theory over all other possibilies. Interpretation of the fossil record is not empirical evidence of the validity of Macro-evolution but a mere speculation of what could be the reason why it appears the way it does.

The fossil record strongly supports the theory of evolution. In this, we're fortunate that so many fossils have survived over millions of years. To assume that a fossil for each and every step of natural selection would exist today is foolish - we live on a 4 billion plus year old, violent, changing planet.

Because both sides are looking at the same evidence,but through different lenses.Neither side has concrete proof for their position.Christians have the Bible that clearly explains creation and gives an historical timeline.Evolutionists have their god of speculative and historical science[not true observational science] as their presuppositional starting and reference point.Anyone speaking about the past that goes beyond written records is not speaking with 100% proof on their side.So, everyone has faith in someone or something,whether they admit or not.

It doesn't. Fossil records prove evolution scientifically.

in the future liberals will invent a time machine, they used that time machine to travel millions of years into the past and plant fossils to discredit the good book.

This is an argument that can only be made by someone who places science alongside religion as a belief system. They fail to realize that science is the study of factual evidence, not theoretical ponderings of unprovable concepts and make-believe.

Well, you know, you first have to ask, "What is science? What is observation? What is evidence?"
Then, after you find a dictionary, you're back on track for having fossils be scientific evidence.

It does not.
It is one of the many pieces that show evolution is a fact.
