Stasis—in other words, continuity—in the fossil record refutes the gradual model of ev-
          olution through mutations foreseen by neo-Darwinism. The remains that many living
          things left behind in the fossil record millions of years ago are identical to the features
          of specimens living today. There is no trace of gradualism. The fossil record provides no
          example of any intermediate forms.
