Problems with evolution

— If the evolution hypothesis were true and the Earth is as old as the evolutionists say it is, then:
(1) There would not be fossilized tree trunks standing up through many layers of strata, each layer requiring millions of years to form - but they are there. (The trees would have rotted away.)
(2) Human footprints supposedly 3 million years old would not be found in coal (supposedly) 250 million years old - but they are there.
(3) A fossilized 75 foot whale standing almost on its tail would not have been found in 1976 near Lompac, Calif., completely covered up by diatomaceous Earth through millions of years - but its is there. (The whale would have rotted or been eaten by scavengers.)
(4) There would not be trilobite fossils found in the toe and heel of a human shoe print by William Meister in Utah in 1968 - but that is what they found. (Trilobite fossils are “index fossils” for strata supposedly formed at least 250 million years ago.)
(5) Fossils of transitional forms of life would be abundant in the geologic column - but none are to be found there. (Charles Darwin predicted an enormous number would be found, but after digging up fossils for 145 years, not one of these has been found.)
(6) The Earth’s population would not now be a mere 6.5 billion, but it is. (Beginning with one man and one woman 1 million years ago, allowing for wars, famine, disease and other devastation, allowing 42 years per generation and 2.4 children per family, our population would bow be one followed by 5000 zeros. But the entire universe, if estimated at a diameter of 20 billion light years, would only be able to hold one followed by 100 zeros of population.)
