    The vast majority of natural history is long gone, only hinted at in the sediment layers, and our story only goes back 3-4 thousand years. It's likely there aren't any obvious features above ground from before 10 000 years that will add to our history considering the dustruction of the northern hemisphere during the last ice age. Still, its a pretty good story.

    I have, for years it seems, had some difficulty with both "Creationists" and "Evolutionists. In that both are always at odds with each other, mostly due to stubbornness in holding their views. In everything presented today there is a common thread. Something exists that is not named in the Bible, that accordingly should not exist, and . In the same light the idea that ALL living creatures simply came from the primordial goo, does not make it ether.
    OK, what am I saying? If you look at both sides from a third perspective, you will find that both are right. First there was the creation (in what ever fashion you choose), then there was the evolution to what we have today (through adaption caused by environmental and other changes in our planet). Even at this late date species are being discovered, previously not known to exist. (how can that be?) Then there are variations, within a given species, that can't be explained. Like several variations in a type of bird.. Even so, everything had a SINGULAR beginning, some time in the distant past, by whatever means you choose.
    If everyone were to get off their soap box and look at things in a different light, everyone would most likely learn something "that deserves to be remembered".
    Now, I, myself need to step down from my soapbox.

    • @jamesengland7461
      @jamesengland7461 День тому +3

      Just because something is not named in the Bible, that does not mean it shouldn't exist. The Bible never claims to be an exhaustive description. As for finding new species, the world is unimaginably vast and creatures very easily escape our notice, even though they were there all along, whether previously unknown or thought to have gone extinct. We not only constantly discover new species, we're even finding ancient cities in the jungle we never even knew had been there. There are numerous examples of individual animals which have been tracked with tracking devices, normally thought to have ranges of let's say 50 to 100 miles, actually traveling over 2,000 miles away from their groups, mountain lions and sharks in particular. We simply do not know enough about the wild. And yet, with a hundred million fossils in human possession, there's still not one single example of a "missing link."
