Well stu, at least some kind of argument.   Granted there is a general order. It would be expected that a catastrophe beginning in the ocean would cover the sea floor creatures first. It would also be expected that the more mobile would be overwhelmed last. There are however many fossils that have been moved up or down as needed to maintain the desired sequence. And of course, order or not, these fossils are preserved by the tons, but only because of rapid burial that slowed or prevented deterioration. Oh , and is there anywhere where the whole fossil index is complete ?.                           So shimrod, Copernicus and Galileo were wrong after all, since they were rejected by peer review ?!.   All the complex epicycles their contempories kept adding are just like the ever changing evolutionary story, I reckon.    and I must say again, that it is logically impossible to say where an eternal God with no beginning came from. You can deny his existence but you can not fall back on this illogical challenge.                                                          As for me shoving my beliefs down throats....! Give us a break. It was you evo atheists that just could not help yourselves from looking for a fight, that both initiated this debate, and who are shoving evolutionism and atheism down our throats.....if you insist on taking that line .
