they already had. Since these would be in a transitional phase, they
should be disabled, defective, crippled beings. Evolutionists refer to
these imaginary creatures, which they believe to have lived in the past,
as “transitional forms”.
If such animals ever really existed, there would be millions and
even billions of them in number and variety. More importantly, the
remains of these strange creatures should be present in the fossil
record. In The Origin of Species, Darwin explained:

If my theory be true, numberless intermediate varieties, linking most closely all
of the species of the same group together must assuredly have existed... Conse-
quently, evidence of their former existence could be found only amongst fossil
remains... (Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species, New York: D. Appleton
and Company. p. 161)
However, Darwin, having written
these lines, was also well aware of the
fact that no fossils of these interme-
diate forms had yet been found. He
regarded this as a major difficulty
for his theory. That is why, in one
chapter of his book titled “Difficul-
ties on Theory,” he wrote:
Firstly, why, if species have descended from
other species by insensibly fine gradations,
do we not everywhere see innumerable
transitional forms? Why is not all nature

Evolutionists generally inter-
pret fossils in the light of their
ideological expectations, for
which reason the conclusions
they arrive at are for the most
part unreliable.
