A fossil is any remains or trace of a formerly living thing preserved by natural processes

Kinds of fossils: Original materials, Petrified fossils, Replacement, Casts and molds, Permineralization

Kinds of fossils: Carbon prints, Compression fossils, Trace fossils, Microfossils, Most common kind

How fossils formed: Death and decay, Scavengers, In some rare cases, decay is avoided

How fossils formed: Rapid burial, Very rarely seen on Earth today

Where fossils are found: In rocks, Usually sedimentary, In loose sediments, Not enough sediment to form rocks

Where fossils are found: In fossil traps, Amber, Ice, Asphalt

Evolutionists date fossils by the ages of the rocks in which they are found

Remnants of tissue and blood cells have been found in fossils, This is evidence for recent fossil formation

Paleontology is the area of science that studies and classifies fossils

Paleontologists use the same classification system used for living organisms

Paleontologists classify fossils by similarity of appearances to living organisms

Theory of natural selection, Superposition says oldest rocks containing oldest fossils should be lowest

Circular reasoning, Transitional forms, “Missing links”, None of these have ever been found

Evolutionists believe there were five major extinction events over past 500 million years, Meteorite impact

Must interpret the data through biological evolution and old-earth geology

Several theories can be offered based on a worldwide flood

Cannot say for sure that all plants and animals found together in a certain rock stratum actually lived together

Natural solid, liquid, and gas materials that are good and useful sources of thermal energy

Fossil fuels have been used since ancient times: Coal, Petroleum, Natural gas

Coal is an organic sedimentary rock: Lignite, Bituminous, Anthracite

Underground mines, Open pit surface mines, Coking coal, Coal byproducts

Petroleum: Crude oil, Hydrocarbons, Natural gas, Methane, ethane, propane

Natural gas is often found with crude oil: Oil traps, Oil derricks

Old-earth geologists think coal formed from peat covered by sediments over a very long time

Young-earth geologists think coal formed much more quickly

Old-earth geologists think petroleum and natural gas formed from phytoplankton, Problems

Petroleum may not come from fossilized organisms, Created oil, God simply created it in the beginning

Current uses of fossil fuels, Environment, Greenhouse gases

Most plants and animals found there are similar to what is found in the region today
