CRICKET



                 Age: 125 million years

                 Period: Cretaceous

                 Location: Santana Formation, Brazil

                 From Darwin's day down to the present, evolutionist geologists and paleontologists have been looking for
                 fossils to support the theory of evolution. They have sought to come up with any discovery that will show
                 that living things constantly change and develop into other species. Yet their endeavors have served no pur-
                 pose, because among all the countless fossils unearthed, not one has indicated that living things change,
                 whereas countless specimens prove that species after species has remained unaltered over hundreds of mil-
                 lions of years. This means that evolution never occurred.

                 The paleontologist David Raup expresses this fact revealed by the fossil record, which has completely

                 routed Darwinism:

                      "Instead of finding the gradual unfolding of life, what geologists of Darwin's time, and geologists of the present day
                      actually find is a highly uneven or jerky record; that is, species appear in the sequence very suddenly, show little or
                      no change during their existence in the record, then abruptly go out of the record…" (David M. Raup, "Conflicts
                      Between Darwin and Paleontology," Field Museum of Natural History Bulletin, Chicago, Vol. 50, January 1979, p. 23)
