No specimen of a semi-developed fossil with features belonging to two different species has ever
been found in any excavation. And this is the greatest problem confronting the theory of evolution.
Charles Darwin, the founder of the theory, was also aware of this and knew that the theory was
built on rotten foundations. Darwin's admission on the subject reads:
“... Why, if species have descended from other species by insensibly fine gradations, do we not every-
where see innumerable transitional forms? Why is not all nature in confusion instead of the species be-
ing, as we see them, well defined?… But, as by this theory innumerable transitional forms must have ex-
isted, why do we not find them embedded in countless numbers in the crust of the Earth?… Why then is
not every geological formation and every stratum full of such intermediate links? Geology assuredly does
not reveal any such finely graduated organic chain; and this, perhaps, is the most obvious and gravest
objection which can be urged against my theory.” (Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species, s. 172, 280)
