E Evidence for Evolution
d
Since the NAS authors are blindly devoted to the theory
of evolution, they are even capable of interpreting evidence
that works against the theory as evidence in favor of it. One ex-
ample of this is their interpretation of the fossil record: according
to the NAS, fossils are found in an orderly sequence in the Earth,
and similar species are set out in consecutive layers. Evolutionists
then portray this as evidence of evolution. However, this claim is
exceedingly deceptive and totally ignores the real message of the
fossil record.
It first needs to be made clear that even if living things were
set out in order in the Earth's geological strata, this would still not
be proof of evolution. In order for such an arrangement to be con-
sidered evidence of evolution, fossils of those creatures that pro-
vided transitions between species alleged to have evolved
from one another should also be found in the strata. As we
have seen in earlier chapters, however, these transitional
forms are nowhere to be found. Furthermore, beyond
the fossil record, branches of sciences such as mor-
phology, genetics, and biochemistry have all
proven that such transitional forms are im-
possible. These branches of science have
demonstrated that living species
cannot descend from one
