DEVOTION AMONG ANIMALS

                  Not surprisingly, no mutation example, which is useful, that is,
               which is observed to develop the genetic code, has been observed so
               far. All mutations have proved to be harmful. It was understood that
               mutation, which is presented as an "evolutionary mechanism," is ac-
               tually a genetic occurrence that harms living things, and leaves them
               disabled. (The most common effect of mutation on human beings is
               cancer.) Of course, a destructive mechanism cannot be an "evolu-
               tionary mechanism." Natural selection, on the other hand, "can do

               nothing by itself," as Darwin also accepted. This fact shows us that
               there is no "evolutionary mechanism" in nature. Since no evolution-
               ary mechanism exists, no such any imaginary process called "evolu-
               tion" could have taken place.

                  THE FOSSIL RECORD:

                  NO SIGN OF INTERMEDIATE FORMS

                  The clearest evidence that the scenario suggested by the theory of
               evolution did not take place is the fossil record.
                  According to this theory, every living species has sprung from a
               predecessor. A previously existing species turned into something else
               over time and all species have come into being in this way. In other
               words, this transformation proceeds gradually over millions of years.
                  Had this been the case, numerous intermediary species should
               have existed and lived within this long transformation period.
                  For instance, some half-fish/half-reptiles should have lived in the
               past which had acquired some reptilian traits in addition to the fish
               traits they already had. Or there should have existed some reptile-
               birds, which acquired some bird traits in addition to the reptilian traits
               they already had. Since these would be in a transitional phase, they
               should be disabled, defective, crippled living beings. Evolutionists
               refer to these imaginary creatures, which they believe to have lived in
               the past, as "transitional forms."
