[QUOTE=DanBlather]  
A better worded question would be “Is there more evidence for Jesus than evolution”? The answer would be no. Ignoring human evolution, and the emotional respose it creates, look at other animals and plants. The farther you go back in time in geological formations the simpler the organisms. Dates can be determined by radioactive decay, annual patterns of layers of deposit, tree rings, magnetic orientation of igneus rock, etc. DNA evidence (random drift over time) supports the geologic record.

Evidence for Jesus has been summed up nicely by **MEBuckner**.  
[/QUOTE]

Is it true that the “geologic column” only exists in textbooks? Is it consistant all over the earth? Do we date the fossils by the layer in which they are found, or the layer in which they are found by the types of fossils it contains? Does it seem like this is going around in circles? It must have come from the East\>
