Question: As a creationist, how can you recognize a transitional fossil? Answer: when creationists can't agree which "kind" the specimen belongs to. [Spirituality & Religion]

A transitional fossil should show features which belong to the ancestral group and features which belong to the descendant group.
Creationists necessarily deny that these fossils exist but they expose the lie in their own argument when between them they cannot agree which "kind" a given fossils belongs in.
Is an Archaeopteryx a bird kind or a dinosaur kind? It has a mosaic of characteristics which makes it both.
Where do we draw the line between human kind and ape kind?

Well creationists just can't agree with each other which proves the fact that their features are so mosaic that they do indeed represent a transitional form between "kinds".

Creationist love to declare things have been debunked in the hopes you’ll stop bringer them up.
@Straylight lol some of them. But i think a lot of them just believe when they hear other creationists say something has been debunked and don't investigate beyond that.
Case in point: a fellow in here has just brought up the Paluxy river tracks as proof that humans and dinosaurs lived together.

@Pikachu if you want to believe that your ancestors were monkeys that eat their own shit, I'm not gonna argue with you...

might even explain a few things... 🤣
@wildbill83

...that eat their own shit?🤔 lol
I mean, i've heard that cliched joke by creationists about believing one's ancestors were apes a thousand times but the addition of eating shit says more about you than me...

Gotta say, i was hoping for a bit more back and forth on the the claims you made and the rebuttal i gave but am i correct in assuming that this is all you're prepared to respond with?

So much for the notion that "evolutionists" are the ones who don't understand the fossil record🤣
