Paleontologist Alfred Romer wrote: "Below this [Cambrian period],
there are vast thicknesses of sediments in which the progenitors of
the Cambrian forms would be expected. But we do not find them; these
older beds are almost barren of evidence of life, and the general
picture could reasonably be said to be consistent with the idea of a
special creation at the beginning of Cambrian times."-Natural

You can't come up with a more recent source that supports your point?
Pretty weak!

The point about Creationism is not coming up with more recent sources,
but with more *ancient* sources! In creationist thinking, it makes
perfect sense to point out that scientists who lived centuries before
Darwin did not believe in evolution.


I am not a creationist, and I have posted recent articles, which has
been conviently ignored..
for example, new scientist article of plant evolution. it basicly
knowcks down all previous theories on plant evolution.

where you criticism on that?

the article is still hot off the press..


Reference please.
