Most scientists and scholars use fossil records to support claims about the concept of evolution. However, based on an article published by Dr. Hugh Ross’ Reasons to Believe, new fossil records reveal that the natural patterns that Charles Darwin once observed may not accurately match the actual process that is supposed to happen to living organisms, especially if biological evolution accounts for life’s history and diversity. On the other hand, this pattern fits almost accurately within a “creation” model.
In an August 2011 episode of Science News Flash, paleontologists from the United States, Great Britain, and Germany were shown generating 3-D reconstructions of two harvestmen (daddy longlegs) fossil specimens that were 305 million years old already. The researchers discovered that these ancient organisms were surprisingly possessing modern anatomy. This means that they have not undergone evolutionary change for at least 300 million years.

Dr. Hugh Ross enjoys constructively integrating all 66 books of the Bible with all the science disciplines as a way to discover and apply deeper truths.The discovery is not an anomaly. It typifies the fossil record. The “hurry up and wait” pattern that the fossils seem to suggest is counter-intuitive from an evolutionary perspective. The scientists surveyed a variety of mathematical models to find one that would generate the same pattern as observed in the specimen. At present, thorough investigation are still undertaken to clarify things out and better explain the “actual” biological characteristics of organisms.
