                    This means that in the fossil record, all living species sud-
                denly emerge as fully formed, without any intermediate forms in
                between. This is just the opposite of Darwin's assumptions. Also,
                this is very strong evidence that all living things are created. The
                only explanation of a living species emerging suddenly and comp-
                lete in every detail without any evolutionary ancestor is that it was
                created. This fact is admitted also by the widely known evoluti-
                onist biologist Douglas Futuyma:
                    Creation and evolution, between them, exhaust the possible
                    explanations for the origin of living things. Organisms either ap-
                    peared on the earth fully developed or they did not. If they did
                    not, they must have developed from pre-existing species by so-
                    me process of modification. If they did appear in a fully develo-
                    ped state, they must indeed have been created by some
                    omnipotent intelligence. 12

                    Fossils show that living beings emerged fully developed and
                in a perfect state on the Earth. That means that "the origin of speci-
                es," contrary to Darwin's supposition, is not evolution, but creati-
                on.

                    The Tale of Human Evolution

                    The subject most often brought up by advocates of the theory
                of evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim
                holds that modern man evolved from ape-like creatures. During
                this alleged evolutionary process, which is supposed to have star-
                ted 4-5 million years ago, some "transitional forms" between mo-
                dern man and his ancestors are supposed to have existed.
                According to this completely imaginary scenario, four basic "cate-
                gories" are listed:
                    1. Australopithecus
                    2. Homo habilis
                    3. Homo erectus
                    4. Homo sapiens
