70,000,000-Year-Old Fish? Thought to be extinct for 70,000,000 years, the coelacanth [SEE la kanth] was first caught in 1938 deep in the Indian Ocean, northwest of Madagascar. Since then, rewards have been offered for coelacanths, so hundreds have been caught and sold. In 1998, they were also found off the coast of Indonesia. How likely is it that two groups of coelacanths could survive so far apart for 70,000,000 years but leave no fossils? Before 1938, evolutionists dated any rock containing a coelacanth fossil as at least 70,000,000 years old. It was an index fossil. Today, evolutionists frequently express amazement that coelacanth fossils look so much like captured coelacanths—despite more than 70,000,000 years of evolution.
Out of Place Fossils Assumption: The last appearance of a fossil is the time when it went extinct. ??? The Coelacanth was thought to have gone extinct with the dinosaurs 70 million years ago until it was discovered off the coast of Madagascar. Coelacanth Living Fossil
The segmented mollusk – Neopilina galatheae (found living off Central America – extinct 280,000,000 years)
Question: Why are fossils not found in the so-called recent millions of years of strata, if they were not extinct at all? Even the evolutionists have had essentially to abandon the theory and use of “index fossils.”
Scientific Problems With the Geologic Time Table • Depends upon so-called “index fossils.” • Can be found no place on earth.

Marine Fossils Everywhere Marine fossils are found on almost every mountain range in the world (Alps, Andes, etc.), and provide clear evidence that the oceans covered the continents.
Humanlike Footprints with Trilobite. In 1968, 43 miles northwest of Delta, Utah, William J. Meister found these and other apparent human shoe prints inside a 2-inch-thick slab of rock. Also in that slab were obvious trilobite fossils, one of which was squashed under the “heel.” The 10-inch-long shoe print is at the left, and its rock mold is to its right. According to evolutionists, trilobites became extinct 240 million years before humans evolved.
Scientific Problems With the Geologic Time Table • Depends upon so-called “index fossils.” • Can be found no place on earth. • Depends upon no complex life forms being found in the lower strata. • Depends upon the absence of polystrate fossils.
Polystrate Fossil Fossils crossing two or more sedimentary layers (strata) are called poly (many) strate (strata) fossils. Consider how quickly this tree trunk in Germany must have been buried. Had it been slowly, its top would have decayed. Obviously, the tree could not have grown up through the strata without sunlight and air. The only alternative is rapid burial. Some polystrate trees are upside down, which could occur in a large flood. Soon after Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980, scientists actually saw trees being buried in a similar way in the lake-bottom sediments of Spirit Lake. Polystrate tree trunks are found worldwide. (Notice the one meter mark, equal to 3.28 feet, in the center of the picture.)

Rapid Strata Formation Polystrate Fossils Petrified tree trunks are found that frequently cross several strata proving the layers were deposited at the same time instead of over millions of years. Polystrate Tree inSandstone and Coal
Evidence of Coal Formation During Flood • Layers of sediments below & above coal seams were water-laid. • Marine fossils and salt water substances are prevalent in coal beds. • Tree trunks in coal bed found in horizontal or upside down. • Hundreds/ thousands of feet of debris necessary for thick coal seams.

Rapid Coal Formation Researchers have shown that plant matter can be turned into coal in a matter of hours. "A rather startling and serendipitous discovery resulted....These observations suggest that in their formation, high rank coals,....were probably subjected to high temperature at some stage in their history. A possible mechanism for formation of these high rank coals could have been a short time, rapid heating event." [Six Hours], GEORGE R. HILL (Dean of College of Mines & Mineral Industries at the University of Utah), Chemical Technology, May, 1972, pp. 292-296.
This small iron pot was imbedded inside a single lump of coal. Such finds are not unusual, but few are fully certified and documented to be true.
Human Artifacts Sulfur Springs ArkansasNov. 27 - 1948 “While I was working in the Municipal Electric Plant in Thomas, Okla. in 1912, I came upon a solid chuck of coal which was too large to use. I broke it with a sledge hammer. This iron pot fell from the center, leaving the impression, or mould of the pot in a piece of the coal. Jim Stull (an employee of the company) witnessed the breaking of the coal, and saw the pot fall out. I traced the source of the coal and found that it came from Wilburton, Oklahoma Mines.” Frank J. Kennord Creation Evidences Museum, Glen Rose, Texas.
Rapid Oil Formation Geologists have claimed that petroleum formation from plant and animal remains requires more than 100 millions of years, but recent experiments have shown that oil can be produced under the right conditions in a matter of minutes. “Experiments by the U.S. Bureau of mines showed that petroleum (oil) can be produced from organic material in only 20 minutes.” Hayden R. Appell, Y.C. Fu, Sam Friedman, et al, “Converting Organic Wastes to Oil,” RL-7560 (Washington, D.C., United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Mines, 1971.) " British scientists claimed to have invented a way to turn household garbage into oil suitable for home heating or power plant use. 'We are doing in 10 minutes what it has taken nature 150 million years to do', said Noel McAuliffe of Manchester University..." Sentinel Star, 2/26/1982
Rapid Oil Formation Changing World Technologies in Philadelphia has constructed a plant that can change almost any carbon based matter into oil. The process requires: super-hydration modestly high temperatures modestly high pressures 15 minutes cooking time "The chief difference in our process is that we make water a friend rather than an enemy," he says. "The other processes all tried to drive out water. We drive it in, inside this tank, with heat and pressure. We super-hydrate the material.”..

Could the water have covered Mount Everest? Mt Everest is almost 9 km (5.5 miles) high. How, then, could the Flood have covered ‘all the high hills under the whole heaven’? The Bible refers only to ‘high hills,’ and the mountains today were formed only towards the end of, and after, the Flood by collision of the tectonic plates and the associated upthrusting. In support of this, the layers that form the uppermost parts of Mt Everest are themselves composed of fossil-bearing, water-deposited layers. This uplift of the new continental land-masses from under the Flood waters would have meant that, as the mountains rose and the valleys sank, the waters would have rapidly drained off the newly emerging land surfaces. The collapse of natural dams holding back the floodwaters on the land would also have caused catastrophic flooding. Such rapid movement of large volumes of water would have caused extensive erosion and shaped the basic features of today’s Earth surface.
