The Fossil Record: Debunking the Theory

According to evolution it is believed that fossils have been around for 65 million years now. Evolutionists believe that once dinosaurs ruled the world until a large meteor crashed into the earth, causing the dinosaurs to go extinct. 

They believe that the fossils speak for themselves and prove evolution.

Debunking the Theory 


First of all, the creationist finds his/her evidence by looking at the Bible. 

Evolutionists fail to look at the Bible which means they fail to see “In the Beginning, God created the heaven and the earth...” (Genesis 1:1)

They believe that the universe was formed by chance and by natural forces which they call evolution. Below is a list proving the earth is not 3. 5 Billion years old which means the whole theory of evolution is wrong.


  1. The Bible says that the earth was formed by God. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.  God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.  God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

 “And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.”  So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.  God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.” (Genesis 1:3-9) This proves that the earth was not created by a force called evolution and the ‘big bang’ did not happen. Instead, God created each thing separately in the span of 6 days. If there even was a ‘big bang’ there would be no way that a flash of light could last 6 days. Think about lightning; it flashes across the sky in not even a second. 

  1. Carbon-14 dating gives amazing proof for the earth being much, much younger than 3. 5 Billion years; it is impossible for it to remain naturally in substances for billions of years because it decays quickly. In saying this, the earth has to be only in the ten of thousands rather than the billions.

  2. Evolutionists have found dinosaur fossils with their tissue still intact, even with intact cells. They say that these bones are 65 million years old. Creationists have studied these fossils and have found out that the tissue and the bones are not from millions of years ago but only thousands of years ago.

  3. When archeologists excavate and find fossilized bones, this fact proves that it was no meteor that supposedly destroyed the dinosaurs: 75% of all fossils are found on mountaintops and above normal altitude. If a meteor struck the earth with as much force as to wipe every dinosaur off of it’s face, before anything could happen, the dinosaurs would not run to the mountains and hills and sit there waiting for the strike, If thy had time, they would at least flee into their dens and caves to safety. But truthfully, if it were a meteor strike as big as the evolutionists say it was, they would have no time to do this. At the time the blast would hit, the heat would have melted them to ash before they even had a chance to react. And upon studying lizards which are the very same family of dinosaurs, lizards do not climb mountaintops for no reason. They stick to the lower plains and/or swamps and rivers where it’s cool. What I’m saying here, is that we have a perfect explanation for why these fossils were found mostly on the mountaintops, but first we have to look at the Bible. “Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence. God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways, and God said to Noah[...] “and I am going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish...” 

The reason why most dinosaurs have gone extinct was because when God flooded the earth, the waters killed all land animals outside the ark, including dinosaurs. Then once they died, the bodies of the dinosaurs (and other land animals) floated on the surface of the water, as the water rose, it reached the mountaintops and the bodies of the dinosaurs were carried upward to the mountains by the waves. Once the water receded, the bodies rested on the mountaintops and slowly decayed into fossils. Over the centuries, the layers of earth covered them underground in hard clay and dirt, waiting for the Geologists to dig them up once again. 


The Bible has the evidence right in it, proving that the theory of Evolution does not exist. And the proof of the fossils are right in the book as well. The problem is, most people open the Bible and look for the word ‘fossil’, though they fail to see that the word ‘fossil’ wasn’t invented until the mid 1500’s and the Bible was written on the 7th century B.C. which means that the writers did not know the word ‘fossil’ and the timeline does not match. But we can do harder studying and think about the clues that the Bible does give rather than looking for straight forward proof.
