In this talk, Tyler Geffeney from Illustra Media presents a common sense list of predictions regarding what one would expect to see in the geological fossil record for each from the two prevailing theories of the origin of life. Then the fossil evidence is measured against both lists of predictions to see which is better supported by the evidence.
Illustra Media's film, DARWIN'S DILEMMA explores one of the great mysteries in the history of life: The geologically-sudden appearance of dozens of major complex animal types in the fossil record without any trace of the gradual transitional steps Charles Darwin had predicted. Frequently described as "the Cambrian Explosion," the development of these new animal types required a massive increase in genetic information.
