discovery.  They give a stunning testimony to the global destructiveness of the flood.” lxxxvii
               Fossil graveyards are important evidence for the global flood for several reasons: 1) they demonstrate
               rapid burial in massive proportions, 2) they demonstrate unusual sediment conditions not found today,
               3) they demonstrate a wide variety of creatures preserved in communities, 4) they regularly mix marine
               and terrestrial creatures, 5) they are found at all levels of the fossil record all over the world. lxxxviii

               9.  Wrong order for evolution.
               It has been reported that "80 to 85% of Earth's land surface does not have even 3 geologic periods
               appearing in 'correct' consecutive order" for evolution.

               10.  Marine Fossils are EVERYWHERE!
               Fossil remains of clams (found in the closed position, indicating
               they were buried alive) have been found atop Mt. Everest. lxxxix
               Sedimentary layers and fossil remains seem to be a testimony to a
               past marine cataclysm.  Massive graves of marine fossils are
               found, even clumped together in tight formations.

               Fish fossils have been found in the highest mountains on Earth.  Marine cephalopods with shells were

               11.  Flood Legends.

                There are nearly 300 surviving Flood Legends passed down by ancient civilizations.
               Right: Tablet no. 11 of the Babylonian' Epic of Gilgamesh', found in ancient Nineveh.
               It tells the story of a great flood similar to the one recorded in Genesis, but with
               obvious corruptions of the original true account.



                           12.  Red Blood Cells in fossil bones from Tyrannosaurus Rex.

                            Actual red blood cells have been found in fossil bones from a Tyrannosaurus Rex.   With
                           traces of the blood protein hemoglobin (which makes blood red and carries oxygen)?  It
                           sounds preposterous to those who believe that these dinosaur remains are at least 65
                           million years old.


                           It is, of course, much less of a surprise to those who believe in Genesis, in which case
                           dinosaur remains are at most only a few thousand years old.



               In a recent article, scientists from Montana State University, seemingly
               struggling to allow professional caution to restrain their obvious
               excitement at the findings, report on the evidence that strongly suggests
                                                                         xcii
               that traces of real blood from a T. Rex have actually been found.
               The story starts with a beautifully preserved T. Rex skeleton unearthed in
               the United States in 1990.  When the bones were brought to Montana
               State University's lab, it was noticed that 'some parts deep inside the long bone of the leg had not
