86 THE EVOLUTION DECEIT

The Origin of Mammals
As we have stated before, the theory of evolution proposes that some
imaginary creatures that came out of the sea turned into reptiles, and that
birds evolved from reptiles. According to the same sce-
nario, reptiles are the ancestors not only of birds but
also of mammals. However, there are great differ-
ences between these two classes. Mammals are
warm-blooded animals (this means they can gen-
erate their own heat and maintain it at a
steady level), they give live birth,
they suckle their young, and their
bodies are covered in fur or hair.
Reptiles, on the other hand, are

generate heat, and their body tem-
perature changes according to the volutionists propose that
all mammal species evolved
