Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and often overlooked world of fossils, examining the remains of ancient animals to unravel the Earthââ â¢s dramatic past. The author, a pioneer in this field, challenges the common belief that the Earthââ â¢s surface has been slowly and gradually transformed. Instead, he presents compelling evidence of sudden, cataclysmic events, most notably the Deluge, that have shaped the planet and resulted in the extinction of numerous species. He meticulously examines the distribution of fossils, revealing a clear sequence of life forms that have existed over time. This, along with other geological features, like the tilted and broken layers of rock, leads him to conclude that the Earth has experienced many upheavals in its history, each one transforming the landscape and its inhabitants. By closely studying fossil bones, the author challenges the prevailing theory of evolution that suggests present-day animals have descended from their ancient counterparts. He argues that the vast differences between extinct and current species point to distinct creations rather than gradual modifications. He also explores how religious and historical accounts of the Deluge, and other catastrophic events, align with his geological observations, providing further evidence for a dramatic, rather than gradual, history of our planet. This book offers a groundbreaking exploration of the Earthââ â¢s history, unveiling a world of ancient wonders and illuminating a perspective on our planetââ â¢s past that is both surprising and thought-provoking. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330240519_0
