THAT is your problem. And while you all keep repeating the same cultic mantra about all this fossil evidence, you all fail to produce any.
No wait. I'm wrong. You HAVE produced fossil evidence - PROOF, like your Nebraska Man, and his entire sub-species.
My bad. Sorry. I guess your PROOF is infallible! Do carry on!

Nebraska Man? Back in the 1920s some klutzy paleontologist misclassified a tooth and you claim that disproved evolution?

Did I say it disproved evolution?
Why don't you READ and THINK before you post stuff like this?
I'm just amazed by how crazy you pro-evolution zealots get when one person calls you out on the lack of evidence supporting your theory. What were the words of Shakespeare? Methinks thou dost protest too much.

You have been pointed several times to the evidence you claim is missing (fossils). And also, conveniently, fail miserably to consider the rest of the evidence. Proven heredity, proven variation, proven mutation, proven natural selection, proven adaptation, proof of geographical distribution.
Fossils aren't even needed. They are a bonus. Yet you jump on the low quantity of them to claim that evolution is not evident. That is ridiculous.
"The jury is ready to convict a murderer for which we have motive, weapon, time, place and all sort of traces... trial is stopped when a video of the suspect walking in a hall that leads to the crime scene -carrying a matching gun- appears. This is more evidence, right? Well, not for the defense attorney, who points out there is no video of the moment of the homicide. THERE IS A GAP he screams... now there is LESS EVIDENCE!!! ... SHOW ME THE MISSING LINK"
.... u get the point.

Called out? You raise an issue that has zero to do with evolution and then claim others are zealots? LOL
Again if not evolution, what?

The left!?
You'd think right wingers would love evolution. Charles Darwin should be one of their heroes.

They only turn to evolution to justify insurance primes, CEO wages, the "invisible hand" of markets, etcetera.

So I've noticed. Do you have an alternate hypothesis - some sort of constructive contribution?
Because, frankly, "some random dude on a message board thinks there should be more fossils" isn't really the sort of stuff to progress science nor debate.

I realize this is pointless when it comes to certain posters here, but for anyone else who may be watching from the shadows.
Just one (well, 7-8 actually) of the fossils that shows a link between two species.

Hey PiltdownChickenChaser , what is that? The atheist Bible for thumping the Kristers? Come on, you guys all argue these stupid weirdo fossils interpretations all day long and spin around to nowhere when science already has provided charts showing and illustrating progression of humans coming out of Africa. Compare that to the reality of who's on top and who's still at the bottom and you've got Euorpean made countries dominating the planet, just like in the science charts. Proof enough for me.

So there you dear creationists  Start digging! In the meanwhile, evolution stands as fact.

The only way the fossil record could disprove evolution, is if every single fossil was dated back to the exact same time.
