Abstract

The PDF "Paleobotanical Evidences For A Philosophy Of Creationism" by George F. Howe argues that the fossil record of plants supports a creationist worldview. Howe contends that the sudden appearance of complex plant life forms in the fossil record, without clear evolutionary precursors, challenges the gradualistic nature of evolutionary theory. He highlights the lack of transitional forms between major plant groups, suggesting that these groups were created separately and independently. Howe also emphasizes the stability and stasis observed in many plant lineages throughout geological time, which he argues is inconsistent with the constant change predicted by evolutionary theory. He concludes that paleobotanical evidence, when interpreted within a creationist framework, provides a more coherent explanation for the diversity and complexity of plant life.
