in the pre-Cambrian. All the supposed ancestors of the dozens of
Cambrian life forms must have manifested themselves in the pre-
Cambrian. Otherwise, the scenario of the evolution of living things
would progress no further than being a conjecture, a speculation, a
fantasy—and would be consigned to the shelf.
The more characteristics of Cambrian organisms were deduced
from the examination of their fossils, the more importance the pre-
Cambrian assumed. Increasing research and increased knowledge,
however, provided only this information about the period: Nothing
existed in the pre-Cambrian other than monocellular organisms.
Detailed research revealed nothing else than this. The fossils
found belonged to these organisms that have left behind evidence of
their soft tissue. They revealed no information of how they could
have been the evolutionary forerunners of the later complex
Cambrian anatomy—which made matters even more difficult for ev-
olutionists.
The California University evolutionist professor of botany Daniel
I. Axelrod described how pre-Cambrian rocks did not produce the fos-
sils that had been hoped and sought for:
One of the major unsolved problems of geology and evolution is the
occurrence of diversified, multicellular marine invertebrates in Lower
Cambrian rocks on all the continents and their absence in rocks of
greater age. 17
The findings in question make one fact obvious: One of the empty
gaps in the fossil record that evolutionists encounter constantly also ap-
pears in pre-Cambrian strata.
Robert G. Wesson, a political scientist and also an evolutionist, dis-
cussed this aspect of the fossil record, which evolutionists cannot ig-
nore:
The gaps in the record are real, however. The absence of a record of
any important branching is quite phenomenal. Species are usually
