I might be able to buy that for geological stuff, but why would God put a bunch of pre-dead plants animals in the ground that we would eventually discover to appear to be millions of years old? And why did He organize them in such a way as to suggest a consistent history of evolutionary progress, including things like mass extinction events? It just reeks of an elaborate hoax.
The massive layers of sediments in which the fossils are buried can be best explained by a global flood which is recorded in the bible as Noah's flood. Usually life decays quickly when dead, only catastrophic events will result in fossils, and the burial order is determined by how quickly each kind of animal/plant succumbed to the sediment loaded waters of the flood and was buried. In general plants/fish/insects succumbed early to the flood, with reptiles following, the mammals and birds generally survived a little longer due to ability to move longer distances to hills or fly and therefore show up later in the fossil record. This disparity in survival times means they are in upper layers of sediments and when interpreted by uniformatarism methods it gives the appearance of extinctions of certain animal species.
There are vast layers of sediments over all the continents. Geologically, sediments erode quicker over continents than they are laid down, therefore normal geological processes cannot result in these sedimentary layers over continents that often are kilometres thick. A catatrosphic global flood is the only event that can explain these continental layers of sediments.
Life on earth is very complex and its health is generally diminishing rapidly due to mutations increasing with each generation. This rapid increase in unhealthy mutations in humans and mammals in general mean that humans and mammals will become sickly species at the current rate within tens of thousands of years. Extrapolated backwards this points to a timeframe of the existence of mammals and humans for a brief period of time, tens to hundreds of thousands of years at best. As there is such a rapid rate of decline in the species now, then it is clearly not feasible that they evolved to such a high standard of life previously. The evidence clearly points to the design and creation of life, not its evolution. Even the simplest life forms of bacteria etc are extremely complex in nature, and unable to arise spontaneously with no evidence at all that life can exist in simpler forms.
Also many extinctions paraded as real by scientists do not fit the facts. Dinosaurs, also known as dragons were clearly present on the earth in historical times, ie up to 1500 years ago, and probably more recently, with discriptions and engravings of dragons in historical writings, on buildings, with rumours of their continued existence in regions of africa and even on unpopulated islands of Papua New Guinea.
It is not surprising that when scientists ignore facts like these, that many people will also disbelieve scientists on issues also like global warming, age of earth, origin of life etc.
