                 or seek to make use of it to convince others of the truth
                 of their theory. All the so-called proofs of evolution pro-
                 posed by Charles Darwin in The Origin of Species are of
                 that kind, as are the examples put forward by later evo-
                 lutionists. In their examples, they seek to use as evidence
                 for their theory the genetic variety that they describe as
                 micro-evolution but which actually has nothing at all to
                 do with what they describe as macro-evolution.

                     Despite all this discussion of micro- and macro-evo-
                 lution and speciation, living things appeared on Earth as
                 types with their own different structures (as is confirmed
                 by the fossil record). Different variations and subspecies
                 may appear within them, thanks to the richness of their
                 gene pools. For example, there are rabbits that exhibit
                 variations such as white fur, grey fur, longer or shorter

                 ears, and these variations become more pronounced in a
                 given environment, depending on which natural condi-
                 tions support them most appropriately. But species nev-
                 er turn into other species. There is no natural mechanism
                 that can effect this, that can design new types and devel-
                 op the new organs, systems and body plans they require.
                 Every species has been created with its own unique
                 structures. And since God has created every one of them
                 with a potential for variety, a wide but finite variation of-

                 ten emerges within each type.
