              disabled. (The most common effect of mutation on human
              beings is cancer). No doubt, a destructive mechanism cannot
              be an "evolutionary mechanism." Natural selection, on the
              other hand, "can do nothing by itself" as Darwin also
              accepted. This fact shows us that there is no "evolutionary

              mechanism" in nature. Since no evolutionary mechanism
              exists, neither could any imaginary process called evolution
              have taken place.

                  The Fossil Record: No Sign of

                  Intermediate Forms

                  The clearest evidence that the scenario suggested by the
              theory of evolution did not take place is the fossil record.
                  According to the theory of evolution, every living
              species has sprung from a predecessor.  A previously
              existing species turned into something else in time and all
              species have come into being in this way. According to the
              theory, this transformation proceeds gradually over millions
              of years.
                  Had this been the case, then numerous intermediary
              species should have existed and lived within this long
              transformation period.
                  For instance, some half-fish/half-reptiles should have
              lived in the past which had acquired some reptilian traits in
              addition to the fish traits they already had. Or there should
              have existed some reptile-birds, which acquired some bird
              traits in addition to the reptilian traits they already had. Since
              these would be in a transitional phase, they should be
              disabled, defective, crippled living beings. Evolutionists refer
