David you are too hard on these arguments - see my comments

The article has a number of useful points. I don't know offhand exactly where my copy is, but from memory:
Genuine footprints occur on former exposed surfaces, such as bedding planes in sedimentary rock or lava flows. They do not occur in the middle of a block of granite, etc.
MR This is a development of people walking on hot ashes - they must have been Nephelim
Footprints should form a trail. People do not normally leap from a long distance, land on one foot to make a print, and jump totally clear of the impressionable substrate without making any other traces.
MR David leaped on the return of the ark II Sam 6 vs14
A footprint trail should not undergo significant changes in foot morphology within the trail. For example, changing numbers of toes is suspect.
MR During the Flood conditions changed rapidly and this could be the result of mutation caused by the vast outpouring of lavas at the deccan
Footprints should be anatomically correct.
MR see above
Footprints should be actual impressions in the rock, not carvings or paintings.
MR You need the eye of faith
A little knowledge of real footprints also exposes the moon dust claim-neither on earth nor on the moon do people sink down to solid rock with every step on loose dirt.

Thanks for providing this link. I was going to ask about it, because coincidentally, this was mentioned yesterday from the pulpit along with the claimed dinosaur-human tracks, as evidence of a young earth.
