All the living creatures in the fossil record appear intact and in their perfect forms. For instance, before
crocodiles and squirrels, there exist no fossils belonging to any strange creature partly resembling a crocodile,
and in other parts to a squirrel or other living creatures. Squirrels have always remained squirrels, and
crocodiles have always remained crocodiles. All these facts reveal that the claim of the theory of evolution,
that "Living beings have gradually evolved over millions of years of time" is simply a product of imagination.
extraordinary resemblance to the approximately 1.5
billion species alive today. Given the absence of any
intermediate form despite such a wealthy fossil
record, it is impossible any such intermediate forms
will emerge from new excavations.
The fossil record offers not a single example of an
"intermediate form" that evolutionists can use as
evidence, but does provide millions of specimens that
demonstrate the invalidity of evolution. The most
important of these are "living fossils," of which living
specimens are in existence today. They can be seen from the
fossil record to have lived in differing geological periods, and
are proof of creation, since no difference exists between the
living things of hundreds of millions of years ago and present-
day specimens. Darwinists are helpless in the face of this
situation.
The evolutionist Niles Eldredge admits that they have no
explanation to offer on the subject of living fossils, which
represent just one of the countless secrets evolution is
unable to unravel: There are many species of plants
whose structures have remained
unchanged since the Triassic Period
(248 to 206 million years ago). One
of these is a ginkgo tree. The fossil
A branch of ginkgo pictured is from the Jurassic Period
tree living today (206 to 144 million years ago).
