The Origin of Mammals

Contrary to evolutionist claims, mammals emerged on
Earth suddenly without any predecessors. Moreover,

evolutionists have no explanation for the origin of
distinct mammal groups.

s so far examined, the theory of evolution proposes that some
imaginary creatures that came out of the sea transformed themselves
A into reptiles and that birds were formed by the evolution as that of
reptiles. According to the same scenario, reptiles are the ancestors not only of
birds but also of mammals. However, on the one hand, there are big, structural
gaps between reptiles, which have scales on their bodies, which are cold-blooded, and which
reproduce by laying eggs, and on the other, mammals, which have fur on their bodies, which are
warm-blooded, and which reproduce by giving birth to live offspring.
An example of the structural barriers between reptiles and mammals is their jaw structure.
Mammals' mandibles consist of only one mandibular bone and the teeth are placed on this bone.
In reptiles, however, there are three little bones on both sides of the mandible.
Another basic difference is that all mammals have three bones in their middle ear (hammer,
anvil, and stirrup). In all reptiles, there is a single bone in the middle ear. Evolutionists claim that
the reptile jaw and reptile middle ear evolved gradually into the mammal jaw and ear. Yet the
question of how this change occurred remains unanswered. In particular, the question of how an
ear with a single bone evolved into an ear with three bones and how the process of hearing kept
on functioning in the meanwhile can never be explained.

SEA MAMMALS
AND BEARS
Sea mammals, such as
dolphins and whales, are the
primary animals that put
evolutionists into a quandary.
According to evolution, these animals
ought to have evolved from land mammals, but there is no
land animal that can be considered the "ancestor" of these species.
In his book The Origin of Species, Darwin asserted that
"whales had evolved from bears that tried to
swim." Later, however, he realized the
unreasonableness of this claim and
omitted this subject from the
latest edition of his book.
