Beauty is in the eye of the beholder Women's N'Keal Harry Jersey , the same goes with what musicians consider as the best trumpet.


In this case, the beauty of a trumpet depends on the ears of the beholder and the audience. The best
trumpet for a musician can be considered a matter of perspective. For some musicians, the best trumpet could be made of brass; the best can be colored black, gold or silver; some musicians consider piston valve trumpets to be the best as opposed to rotary valves.


Musicians also consider a particular brand of trumpet to be the best and wouldn’t play anything else. The best trumpet can also be determined by general point of view and not just the whim of the
musician. The Bb trumpet is the best trumpet for students who want to learn playing trumpets. Gold or silver colored trumpets are best used for special occasions and C trumpets are the best trumpet for orchestral performances.

The Fossil Record And Creation Science

Posted by nick_niesen on October 27th, 2010


Young earth creationists commonly point to the fossil record in order to support their position. In one instance, the article "The Fossil Record: Becoming More Random All the Time" by John Woodmorappe Women's Jarrett Stidham Jersey , has some very good points to it (Footnote 1). Read it if you like, (its a long one), but you don't have to much farther than the abstract to see problems. Actually, some are problems, and some are deceptions.


The abstract states that "The reality of the geologic column is predicated on the belief that fossils have restricted ranges in rock strata." Of course it is...this has been the "reality" all along. His wording makes it sound as if the geologist has been up to some deceit...but this is not the case. He goes on to claim, "as more and more fossils are found Women's Sony Michel Jersey , the ranges of fossils keep increasing." Welcome to the world of science! This is nothing new. As new discoveries are made, the timelines that we thought species were living is extended. So what! He states that stratigraphic-range extension is not the exception but the rule. OF course it is, by its very nature it HAS to be. You are not going to "shorten" ranges...the only way to go is to extend them. It has always been this way, and always will be this way. It in no way makes dating through the use of fossils invalid.


Does it make "it easier for the Genesis Flood to explain an increasingly-random fossil record" as the author claims? Yes, if it were "increasingly random," but it is not. Because you increase the range of an organism's lifespan on earth does not prove more "randomization." He states further down Women's Stephon Gilmore Jersey , when expressing questions from evolutionists, "why a layer of rock containing trilobites is never found to contain dinosaurs," and vice-versa. Great point...if we are to suddenly find a trilobite in a dinosaur layer...great, they lived longer than expected. If we find a trilobite with a human fossil, then great. It has no implications for young or old earth creationism.


The author is trying to establish credible proof for a completely random fossil record. A completely random fossil record should have been created from the Flood, if you follow the model proposed by young-earth scientists. What is meant by "random?" If the fossil record was random Women's Tom Brady Jersey , we should have humans, and dinosaurs, and trilobites all together...but we don't. In fact, look at the Grand Canyon...you would expect many fossils in the rocks at the bottom, but starting from the bottom, you have to go thousands of feet up the rock strata before you even get to any vertebrate fossils. Why are they not lower down? By the flood model Women's Julian Edelman Jersey , while these thousands of feet of strata were laid down, all the vertebrates were busy "treading water" for months, until they finally died and sank? Not only is this not possible, it is not supported in the fossil record. The fossil record shows increasingly complex organisms, as you go upward (or, younger) in the geologic column Jake Bailey Jersey , which is exactly what you would expect in an old earth.


Boundary Fossils

Many points on the geologic time scale were made with the use of boundary fossils. This is a means of dating a rock, albeit not precisely, by using the range that an organism existed as a boundary. In other words, for instance, the Cretaceous period ended 65 million years ago. You could use a dinosaur fossil in a rock layer, and state wit leshoes.com/]Wholesale Nike Shoes Free Shipping[/url]
