supreme creation, yet evoluti-
T onists try to make reference to
it in defence of their theory. The fact
that, in the creation of a new human be-
ing, every stage develops according to a
very delicate design, is today an undis-
puted fact in the field of embryology. In
this case, how do evolutionists try to in-
terpret this fact of creation in reference
to their theory?
At the end of the 19 th century, the Evolutionist Haeckel did not hesitate
evolutionist biologist Ernst Haeckel to produce fabricated evidence. But
as science advanced, it was revealed
proposed his thesis, "Ontogeny Recapi- that Haeckel's scenario was purely
tulates Phylogeny". In this thesis, Haec- imaginary.
kel claimed that living embryos in the
process of their development repeat the evolutionary process that their
supposed ancestors went through. For example, he proposed that a hu-
man embryo in its mother's womb first displayed the characteristics of a
fish, then of a reptile before finally turning into a human being.
Before long it was realized that this thesis did not reflect the facts.
The gills that supposedly appeared in the first periods of a human embr-
yo were actually the human inner ear canal and the parathyroid and thy-
mus glands; the part of the embryo resembling an egg yoke was actually
the sack responsible for the production of the baby's blood; the part that
was thought to be the tail was identified as the human spine.
These are now facts well attested in the world of science. Shortly af-
ter Haeckel proposed his theory, evolutionists themselves acknowledged
