of the fossils, contrary to the evolutionists' expectations, show that
life appeared on Earth all of a sudden and fully-formed.
One famous British paleontologist, Derek V. Ager, admits this
fact, even though he is an evolutionist:
The point emerges that if we examine the fossil record in detail, whether at
the level of orders or of species, we find—over and over again—not grad-
ual evolution, but the sudden explosion of one group at the expense of an-
other. 11
This means that in the fossil record, all living species suddenly
emerge as fully formed, without any intermediate forms in between.
This is just the opposite of Darwin's assumptions. Also, this is very
strong evidence that all living things are created. The only explana-
tion of a living species emerging suddenly and complete in every
detail without any evolutionary ancestor is that it was created. This
fact is admitted also by the widely known evolutionist biologist
Douglas Futuyma:
Creation and evolution, between them, exhaust the possible explanations
for the origin of living things. Organisms either appeared on the earth
fully developed or they did not. If they did not, they must have developed
from pre-existing species by some process of modification. If they did ap-
pear in a fully developed state, they must indeed have been created by
some omnipotent intelligence. 12
Fossils show that living beings emerged fully developed and in
a perfect state on the Earth. That means that "the origin of species,"
contrary to Darwin's supposition, is not evolution, but creation.

The Tale of Human Evolution

The subject most often brought up by advocates of the theory of
evolution is the subject of the origin of man. The Darwinist claim
holds that modern man evolved from ape-like creatures. During this
alleged evolutionary process, which is supposed to have started 4-5
