My take on Life

[Cyberman]

Lots of the species that actually have pictures are either silly drawings

Have you considered what they might be drawings of?

or look like they were run over by a car.

Or several thousands tons pressure in rock strata. At least you concede they exist.

Similarly, a ton of them are fish and other smaller creatures, which we see an abundance of today.

And?

Fossils like tiktaalik are great; few more of those would be fantastic. But I still just see a lot of gaps.

I guess you either missed my post or dismissed it. I shall reiterate the core point here.

How many gaps, do you think, are there between this stage:



and this one:


?

Does our inability to provide a continuous, unbroken, step-by-step chain of photographs for your benefit mean that biological procreation and maturity is impossible?

And if big creatures are so hard to fossilize, why are there multiple fossils of so many dinosaurs?

It's not only big creatures that are hard to fossilise; the conditions for fossilisation are so complex that it's remarkable we have as many fossils as we do.
