Impasse of Intermediate Forms




                                           Darwin had written: "If my theory be true, numberless
                                           intermediate varieties… must assuredly have existed".

                                           However, evolutionists, despite their 140 year-long
                                           search, have not been able to find even one.


                                             he theory of evolution asserts that living things descended from a
                                             common ancestor. According to the theory, living beings differentiated
                                     T from each other over a very long time with linked, gradual
                                     modifications.
                                     If this assertion were true, then numerous "intermediary species" should have
                                     lived in history linking different living species. For instance, if birds had indeed
                                     evolved from reptiles, then billions of creatures which were half-bird/half-
                                     reptile should have lived throughout history.
                                     Darwin knew that the fossil deposits ought to be full of these "intermediary
                                     transitional forms". Yet he was also well aware that no transitional form fossils
                                     were available. That was why he devoted a chapter to this problem in his book
                                     The Origin of Species.
                                     Darwin was hoping that this great problem would be solved in the future and
           Darwin admitted the non-  that transitional forms would be discovered with new excavations. Despite
           existence of intermediate  their best efforts, however, evolutionists have not been able to find even a single
           form fossils in the chapter
           titled "Imperfection of   intermediate form in the 140 years that have passed since Darwin. The well-
           Geological Record" of his  known evolutionist Derek Ager confesses this fact:
           book The Origin of Species.
                                        The point emerges that if we examine the fossil record in detail, we find–over
                                        and over again–not gradual evolution, but the sudden explosion of one group at
                                        the expense of another. 20
           In the excavations carried
           out from Darwin's time till
           the present day, not even
           one intermediate form has
           been unearthed.
