                    EVOLUTIONISTS' CONFESSIONS
                REGARDING THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF
                   A TRANSITION FROM WATER TO

                                      DRY LAND

           T           he evolutionist scenario further maintains that after a time,
            T

                       fish-which had evolved from invertebrates-developed limbs
                       and turned into amphibians capable of living on dry land. But,
             as you might imagine, there is no evidence for such a scenario. Not a sin-
             gle fossil of a half-fish, half-amphibian creature has ever been found.
                 The process of a transition from water to dry land espoused by evo-

             lutionists never happened.
                 In addition to the complete absence of the fossils needed to indicate
             such a transition, a great many important changes would have had to take
             place for any living thing to move from water to land. But such a transi-
             tion is impossible, and many factors make it so. For example, fishes' gills
             would have to turn into lungs for them to be able to live on land, and their
             fins would have to strengthen and lengthen into legs. Radical changes

             would also have to take place in a wide range of internal areas, such as
             energy consumption and the circulatory and excretory systems.
             Moreover, all these radical changes would have to take place at once for a
             creature moving from water to dry land to survive.
                 But it is doubtlessly impossible for such physiological and anatomi-
             cal changes to take place by chance and simultaneously. And evolution-
             ists are in fact well aware of these impossibilities.

             chiatry and a well-known evolutionist science writer:

                 As we have seen, life on land is a difficult and wearisome one, constantly
