side it have been preserved without damage for millions of years,
right up until today. This helps us to learn a lot about creatures
that lived long ago. Such preserved remains of one species or an-

other are called fossils.

What Does "A Transitional Form"

Fossil Mean?

The most important falsehood that evolutionists invent is that
of "transitional forms." In some evolutionist books, these are
sometimes called "intermediate transitional forms."
As you know, evolutionists claim that creatures evolve from
each other. They also maintain that the first creature came about
by chance. They would have us believe that gradually that crea-
ture changed into another, and that other creature turned into yet
another, and so on. Evolutionists say that fish, for example, are de-
scended from a creature that resembled a starfish. This means that
one day, due to mutation, a starfish lost one of its arms. Over the
next millions of years it lost more of its arms, except for some that
started developing into fins of their own accord. Meanwhile, and
simultaneously, all the other changes that are necessary for a
starfish to turn into a fish took place. (Nothing like this could ever

have happened, of course, but we are just reminding ourselves of
what evolutionists would have us believe!) According to evolu-
tionists, the starfish had to go through many phases to turn into a
fish.
So, these imaginary creatures in their transformational stages
are called intermediate species in the process of so-called evolu-
tion. Again, according to the illogical claims of evolutionists, all of
them must have some vestigial or not yet fully formed body parts.
