Does one have to be a ‘scientist’ to believe either evolution or creation? No, for both are taken by faith. In the evolution theory no one was there so many many assumptions are made but in the creation account God was and He has left a detailed account of that event. You may read it in Genesis.

‘When Dr. Marcus Ross was asked about being in the film IS GENESIS HISTORY he was ‘…asked what he thought was one of the most fascinating evidences for a global flood. He immediately said “trackways.”

Trackways? I had never heard of trackways.

He explained they were basically fossilized footprints. The impressions left by a creature walking or crawling in soft sediment had hardened and left identifiable tracks. Although fossil footprints were not unusual in themselves, it’s where they occur in relation to other fossils that’s so unusual: trackways consistently appear in rock layers below the bones and teeth and shells of the animals that made them.

But why is that curious?

He said if you think the earth is billions of years old, then those layers of rock represent  millions of years of history. How is it possible that footprints could appear millions of years before there’s any evidence of the hard parts of the same animals? If there are footprints, there have to be creatures – where are their fossils? How could millions of years pass with millions of creatures dying (all with bones and teeth and shells) and none of them remain behind?

But there’s another solution. If you think the earth was covered by a global flood, then finding trackways below body fossils makes a lot of sense. Those animals that made the trackways were lifted up and carried higher, their bones and teeth and shells eventually being buried by the rising floodwater.  As a result, their body fossils would be found consistently higher than their tracks.

It’s a pattern we see everywhere.

A CURIOUSLY CONSISTENT PATTERN

Marcus emphasized it’s the consistent pattern that that makes this so compelling.  It’s a pattern found in trilobites (little marine creatures), in amphibians, and in dinosaurs.  According to the old earth paradigm, tracks are being found millions of years before body fossils.

How many years are we talking about? 10 million between trilobite tracks and trilobite fossils; 35 million between amphibian tracks and amphibian fossils; and 10 million between dinosaur tracks and dinosaur fossils. That is a curious pattern indeed.’ The rest of the article may be read at https://isgenesishistory.com/fossil-footprints-curious-evidence-flood/?utm_source=Is+Genesis+History%3F&utm_campaign=38c8f28617-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2020_01_30_11_36&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_052697a034-38c8f28617-150261953&mc_cid=38c8f28617&mc_eid=2abe4a38b0
