Fish and Amphibians

Fish and amphibians emerged on the Earth
suddenly and without any predecessors.

Evolutionists cannot explain the origin of
either of these living classes.

predecessors.
Evolutionists have been digging fossil strata for about 140 years looking for
these hypothetical forms. They have found millions of invertebrate fossils and
millions of fish fossils; yet nobody has ever found even one that is midway
between them.
An evolutionist paleontologist, Gerald T. Todd, asks the following questions in
the face of this fact:
All three subdivisions of the bony fishes first appear in the fossil record at
approximately the same time… How did they originate? What
allowed them to diverge so widely?.. And why is there no trace of
earlier, intermediate forms? 26
The evolutionary scenario also argues that fish, which evolved from
invertebrates, later transformed themselves into amphibians which are able to live on land.
(Amphibians are animals capable of living both on land and in water, such as frogs.) But as you
would imagine, this scenario also lacks evidence. There is not even a single fossil verifying that
a half-fish/half-amphibian creature has ever existed. This fact is confirmed, albeit reluctantly, by
a well-known evolutionist authority, Robert L. Carroll, who is the author of Vertebrate
Paleontology and Evolution: "We have no intermediate fossils between rhipidistian fish and early
amphibians." 27
In short, both fish and amphibians emerged suddenly and in their present form
without any predecessors. In other words, God created them in a perfect form.

There is no difference
between the fossil fish of
hundreds of millions
of years ago and
modern fish. Fish have
been created as fish and
always remained so.
