Very ancient fossil spec-
imens are not "primi-
tive," but exhibit very
complex systems. These
fossils, with anatomical fea-
tures identical to those of pre-
sent-day specimens, pose a ma-
jor difficulty for evolutionists, be-
cause they demonstrate that evolu-
tion never happened.

and present-day specimens: cockroaches
have undergone no changes over the last

350 million years. Far from having a prim-
itive structure, these insects have managed
to survive conditions that most living things
could not, down to the present day. In addition,
cockroaches possess complex structures encountered
in all insects: Highly developed antennae, the body-covering chitin,
and the perfect wing structure are all present. They have eyes made

up of some 2,000 lenses, a mouth and jaw structure ideal for con-
suming all kinds of food, rather resembling highly advanced scis- HARUN YAHYA
sors. Their feet enable them to walk on all surfaces, and they are
sensitive to all types of external stimuli such as pheromones, heat,
vibrations and light intensity. With these exceedingly complex
structures, cockroaches are not a primitive species, but the product
of an supreme creation. 121 Each of a cockroach's features has been (ADNAN OKTAR)
