    Huh?

    Why couldn't it?

    Really? Well, where is this 'long line' of them. The consensus about the ones that you mention is not universal and has already been brought into question, those bones were scattered all over the place and they put them together they didn't just dig them up and find them like they lay them out in the exhibits. Have you actually seen them? You can't tell what those bones are from. What happend, was that monkey holding a grenade when it went off?

    "Wrong again honey". LOOK
    And the 'grenade' you speak of is also a long list of destructive factors for thousands if not millions of years including predation and geological destruction. Did you think that these old creatures thought to themselves, "well I'll just lie down here where the mud can cover me well and I'll be perfectly preserved for a future intelligent species to find me"?

    Because so much is obviously so young, we call them the limiting factor.

    The mechanisms of evolution are truly elegant and I would not like to think God was barred from using them just because mankind was not aware of them 2000 years ago.

    Today we accept that there are physical mechanisms behind much of the beauty of the world, from flowers to galaxies. We do not deny that God did not include these mechanisms in His creation just because they were not known 2000 years ago. The evidence for evolution is about as good as that for photosynthesis, for those who are willing to look at it without belittling those who present it.

    'paintings' 'artistic renderings' That's science? Oh, ok. Can't believe that some are still on the list. They are still grasping at straws. They should follow some of their brethren to the 'Punctuated Equilibrium' or 'Directed Panspermia' branch of their cult.
