                 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
