These are the kind of remarks I find entirely annoying. Ignorance will make you guys argue with people that have dedicated their lives researching this field.

The bones you see are called fossils because they were buried/preserved in natural conditions that oxygen couldn't decompose them. In some cases, the fossils were so well preserved that some flesh and their entire body structure were intact.

Do not be a typical Nigerian. Ask questions and you just might be educated by professionals here in nairaland.


Mr know-it-all, I am not contesting anything with you. Let nothing annoy you. Maintain your lane as I am on my lane.


They didn't capture the stuff while embedded in the ground. Let me see 100 million years fossil in my area.

He is open minded and rational unlike u, he has left his mind open and that's the definition of a solution minded person.
In his quest for knowledge and answers, he has refused to be blinded by a fairy tale handed over to him to search for the truth even though he does not know..

Unlike u who already concluded the bible god created the universe according to the Jewish myths....this is 2020, and the best form to answering questions is still scientific approach...science does not have answer to our origin yet, still work in progress, but it will be a mockery of intelligence and common sense to stick to old myths of cave men era and accept a myth that fails all scientific fact as our answer to our origin.

You are no different from som1 who says odudua came down to earth with a rope and obatala moulded humans....
You said a lot but delivered no substance..Jewish myth or caveman stories...every sane person (scientists or not) knows intrinsically that the earth and it's surrounding environment had an intelligent design behind it's origin..whatever you choose to call that designer is upto you.

Psalm 90:4 For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes, or a watch of the night. "A day" referenced here is 12 hours. The new testament also spoke of a similar thing, when it was talking about the 2nd coming of Christ. So Science or carbon dating is correct, the world is several billion years old, and that actually makes sense when you consider the physical evidences on ground. But it also points to the fact that the way we view time or calculate time is not the same way the eternal God views time
True!

100 million years? What year was the earth created according to the holy books?
According to the books, man existed 6,000 years.
Man was the last thing created.

You again! You need to read geological journals. The last time you were arguing here, I didn't want to engage because you think you know more than professionals that have given years in this field. Personally, I have give close to a decade of my life as a Geologist.

Google continental drift, then maybe you'll understand why animals and plants share same characteristics across several continents. It's not about trans-Atlantic voyage.

I hope you learn.
Everyone who watches educative documentaries and not bbnaija, who reads materials and researches and not Mills and boons knows what a continental drift is..and they know this earth's landscape has changed substantially than it was in the past!

You probably only think it's a lie because it contradicts your religious belief. I could give you geological books that tie some biblical events to geology eg. the parting of the red sea. This will make you see that God does not perform magic but he uses spectacular natural events for his wonders.

I don't know it all, far from it. The difference between you and me is that you'll never catch me arguing in field I know nothing of. If you post something here about your area of study, no matter how much it defies logic, what I'd do is to Google it, and if true, I'll learn from you cos that's how I learn.

Back to this matter, they captured it while it was buried. They actually dug for weeks or months.

And yes, there could be fossils in your backyard. It doesn't have to be ginormous. It could be as small as a snail (eg. Trilobites), even microscopic (eg. Foraminifera). Google the names in bracket.

Sorry if I came across rude but just be open to learn new things.

Bible never tells us that earth is 6,000years old. Genesis 1:1 tells us that in the beginning (the Hebrew word there is re'shiyth meaning the DATELESS or eternal past) God (Hebrew is Elohim meaning Gods in plural) created the heavens and the earth. Notice it does not give any timing to the creation of earth. Then Genesis 1: 2 says "And the earth was (Hebrew word there is 'hayah' meaning TO BECOME or TO TRANSFORM INTO SOMETHING) without form and empty" AND the Spirit of God was moving over the formless earth. That verse can read 'and THE EARTH BECAME FORMLESS AND EMPTY'. This shows that a catastrophic event might have happened that made the earth in Genesis 1:1 to become formless and empty, especially when you remember that God is not an author of confusion or disorder. There is no way God can create something ab initio to be formless and empty. God himself even said he did not create the earth in vain, that he created it to be inhabited (read Isaiah 45:18; 1 Corin. 14:33).
The time between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2 was about millions to billions of years. Adam was not the first man on earth. There were races called the preAdamite race which existed on earth when God first made the earth. Satan, who was lucifer then was a ruler over this earth. But when he sinned against God he was thrown out of heaven and enticed the preAdamite man to sin against God. It was the sin of these preAdamite race that caused God to destroy the earth then with a flood (Jerem. 4: 23-26), just as he did years later with Noah. After all these events, this is where Genesis 1:2 begins when the Holy Spirit began to move over the waters or the flooded earth. So the book of Genesis 1 is actually the story of how God RECREATED or RESHAPENED the earth. Also remember that when God created Adam he told him to be fruitful, to multiply and to REPLENISH THE EARTH (Gen. 1: 28). You cannot replenish something unless that thing was full before and then became empty. To replenish means to fill up something that was initially full but later became empty.
So all these scientific discoveries dated to billions of years ago, including dinosaurs and abnormal men, actually existed in the preAdamite era; that is, between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. Even scientists have discovered that most of these creatures such as dinosaurs were made extinct by a great catastrophe where they were submerged in a great flood. This gives further proof of the preAdamite era being destroyed by the flood from God. This is where the confusion lies for most persons. They think Genesis 1 tells us everything about the creation of the heavens and the earth.
There is a whole lot of proof I could give you, both scientifically and from scriptures, but for lack of space and timing.
