Three scientists \u2014 Papaya, Banani, and Ravioli \u2014 along with their assistant Igor, work at NASAL. When they begin to show an interest in creationism, their superiors send them to a psychologist for evaluation. The psychologist, Professor Faggioli, is a shady character, determined to get them fired by making them seem insane. The first to go in is Ravioli.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Papaya and Banani are in the waiting room, still discussing the book Banani found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Okay, we’ve seen the fossil evidence of sea creatures on mountains. But what does the book say? Is there any other evidence?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Oh yes, plenty! For example, there\u2019s evidence that plants and animals were buried rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: And how do they know that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Because we find vast fossil graveyards all over the world \u2014 with fossils incredibly well preserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Like what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Well, for instance, billions of nautiloid fossils are found in a layer within the Redwall limestone of the Grand Canyon. This layer was catastrophically deposited by a massive flow of sediment, mainly lime sand. The gypsum and coal deposits in Europe and the U.S., as well as fossilized fish, ichthyosaurs, insects, and others all over the world, point to catastrophic destruction and burial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Sorry, I\u2019m still not getting it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: You see, it all depends on your starting assumptions. If we assume evolution and millions of years, these are the explanations we come to \u2014 because we’re looking at the evidence with that framework already in mind. But if we start with the assumption that the Bible is telling the truth, then we find the evidence confirms it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Okay, but why should I pick the Bible over millions of years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Simple. If we try to explain the evidence using millions of years, we end up with countless mysteries that still have no answers. But if we start with the biblical account, everything makes perfect sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: I think I see what you’re saying. You’re telling me that Genesis offers a better explanation than millions of years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Exactly. Let me give you an example. If we start from the Genesis account of the flood, what would we expect to find?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Hmm\u2026 floods of water, mud, and other sediments rushing over the land\u2026 So plants and animals would be buried rapidly, all at once, by those sediments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: And that\u2019s exactly what we find!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Okay, but then how do you explain the general validity of the geologic column?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: The geologic column does show fossils mostly in the expected layers. But what they don\u2019t tell you in school is that we also find fossils in the wrong layers \u2014 that is, layers where they shouldn\u2019t be if millions of years were true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: One of the mysteries!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Yep, yep! And more mysteries include soft tissue traces found in dinosaur fossils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: We shouldn\u2019t be finding those after millions of years! They should have decayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banani: Exactly \u2014 and we even have examples of fossilized fish caught in the act of eating other fish, or animals fossilized while giving birth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Papaya: Honestly, it\u2019s hard to deny \u2014 that\u2019s definitely rapid burial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Igor: Yep, yep, the fossils got rapid burial! And now, if we want to keep our jobs, we better do the same\u2026 with Papaya\u2019s creationism magazines! That is, bury them fast\u2026 before the boss finds them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
