The Most Cherished Pieces of Evidence
                                               of Evolution are Proven to be Invalid
                                               A four hundred and ten million-year-old
                                               Coelacanth fish fossil (below). Evolutionists
                                               claimed that it was the transitional form
                                               proving the transition of this fish from water
                                               to land. The fact that more than forty living
                                               examples of this fish have been caught in
                                               the last fifty years reveals that this is still a
                                               perfectly ordinary fish and that it is still liv-
                                               ing. A one hundred and thirty-five million-
                                               year-old Archaeopteryx fossil, the alleged
                                               ancestor of birds, which is said to have
                                               evolved from dinosaurs (left). Research on
                                               the fossil showed it, on the contrary, to be
                                               an extinct bird.



















          these strange creatures should be present in the fossil record. In The Origin

          of Species, Darwin explained:
             If my theory be true, numberless intermediate varieties, linking most
             closely all of the species of the same group together must assuredly have
             existed... Consequently, evidence of their former existence could be
             found only amongst fossil remains. 45


             Darwin's Hopes Shattered

             However, although evolutionists have been making strenuous efforts to
          find fossils since the middle of the nineteenth century all over the world,
          no transitional forms have yet been uncovered. All of the fossils, contrary
