nation of a living species emerging instantaneously and completely 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 appear in a fully developed
state, they must indeed have been created by some omnipotent
intelligence. (Douglas J. Futuyma, Science on Trial, Pantheon
Books, New York, 1983, p. 197)
Today, there are 700 million unearthed fossils. All these fossils
reveal that living beings emerged fully developed and in a perfect
state on the Earth. It is as if the fossils are saying “We did not evolve
through evolutionary processes.” That means, contrary to Darwin’s
supposition, “the origin of species” cannot be explained by evolution,
but is explained by 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 man evolved from so-called ape-like creatures. During this alleged
evolutionary process, which is supposed to have started four to five
million years ago, some “transitional forms” between man and his
imaginary ancestors are supposed to have existed. According to this
completely imaginary scenario, four basic “categories” are listed:
1. Australopithecus
2. Homo habilis
3. Homo erectus
4. Homo sapiens
