Fossils tell what existed at one particular point in time. They don't tell you a thing about how it originated. The theory of Punctuated Equilibrium explains the quick response to changing environments. It doesn't explain anything. It was thought up as a response to the Cambrian explosion. Previously they'd said changes were tiny and took vast quantities of time. When they found evidence that new creatures had emerged suddenly they decided to say, gosh sometimes it happens fast.

You're not reasoning with a reasoning intelligence but brumdum is a programmed automaton, bush league at that, These creationist polemics go back to the beginning when it was considered virtue to be stuck on stupid & superstitious repetitive rattling noise. One thinks of non conducting plaster cement, then all becomes illuminated, even 100% fire retardant too ;0) Lets start with the oldest multicellular species to roam the seas for up to 700mil years, then imagine all the other hard shelled creepies naturally to follow.
