The Cambrian Evidence That Darwin Failed to Comprehend

The supposed freeze proposed in the snowball Earth hypothe-
sis caused great excitement among evolutionist scientists, although
they were all aware that it was only a hypothesis. Even if such se-
vere freezing did take place, there could have been no possible thaw
from it. The freezing’s aftereffects would have left the Earth a barren
planet for all eternity. All life would have been eliminated, and it
would have been impossible for new species, human beings includ-
ed, to develop. An article by Kevin Peterson of Dartmouth
University in New Hampshire in the 12 April, 2003, edition of New
Scientist magazine tackled the question of whether bacteria or algae
could have survived in such a great freeze:

I don’t say it’s impossible. You never say “impossible” when you’re
talking about life, because there are always some bacteria out there
that will prove you wrong. But it’s highly unlikely. You just can’t
freeze the whole world over and expect life to survive it [emphasis
added]. 129
