The fossil of a bird called
Archaeopteryx, that evolu-
tionists tried to portray as
an intermediate species,
shows that evolution is a
theory founded on deceit.
This fossil is that of a real
bird and shows that birds
have not changed for mil-
lions of years.

found belong either to a complete reptile, or else to a com-

plete bird. This means that birds did not evolve from reptiles.
Allah created birds, just as He has created all other living
things.
However, since evolutionists don't want to accept this,

they try to convince people that what they say is true by in-
venting stories. They found the fossil of a bird called
Archaeopteryx, which lived approximately 150 million
years ago, and claimed that this bird was a transitional form
between dinosaurs and birds. Yet saying that Archaeopteryx
was the ancestor of birds is completely illogical.

Archaeopteryx was a fully fledged bird!
Because:
1. Archaeopteryx had feathers, just like the birds of our
own time.

2. Archaeopteryx had the same chest-bone, to which its
wings were attached, as other flying birds.
3. Archaeopteryx cannot be the ancestor of all birds,
because fossils of birds that are older than it have been
found.
