Absence of Human Fossils from the Genesis Flood
Sometimes misotheists ask questions of biblical creationists in bad faith, but some Christians may sit back, watching and waiting for an answer. Sometimes people just want to know. One of these is: Where are human fossils from the global Genesis Flood?
While it is reasonable to ask creationists to back up our claims with physical evidence, it's a mite disingenuous to ignore problems in evolution. Also, secularists need to be consistent. The overwhelming majority of fossils are marine organisms. Several expected types of creatures for the evolution story are poorly represented in the fossil record. Also, evolutionists have problems with finding organisms to support their views. The Genesis Flood, when examined without Darwin spectacles and atheistic presuppositions, makes sense.
Interesting that Darwin's disciples challenge creationists, but they act like deep time and evolution are settled. The Flood left many obvious evidences, including fossils and geologic sequences that span continents, but since there are no known human fossils, creationists need to explain why not.

These are, of course, fair questions that are commonly asked. Because of our understanding of the Flood from the Scriptures, we might expect to find human fossils in Flood strata, so it is rather surprising, at first glance, that we don’t find any. However, Scripture (backed up by so much other evidence) is very clear that there was a global Flood and the pre-Flood people were destroyed, so there must obviously be an explanation for this lack of human fossils. Consequently, we are going to attempt an explanation by exploring possible processes during the Flood and logical deductions from present observations that could help us understand why there are no undisputed human fossils found in Flood strata.
To read the entire article, see "Where are all the human fossils?" To be blunt, the last point is theological and did not strike me as very powerful. See what you think.
