A HISTORICAL LIE: THE STONE AGE
has been observed so far. All mutations have proved to be harmful. It
was understood that mutation, which is presented as an "evoluti-
onary mechanism," is actually a genetic occurrence that harms living
things, and leaves them disabled. (The most common effect of muta-
tion on human beings is cancer.) Of course, a destructive mechanism
cannot be an "evolutionary mechanism." Natural selection, on the ot-
her hand, "can do nothing by itself," as Darwin also accepted. This
fact shows us that there is no "evolutionary mechanism" in nature.
Since no evolutionary mechanism exists, no such any imaginary pro-
cess called "evolution" could have taken place.
The Fossil Record: No Sign of Intermediate Forms
The clearest evidence that the scenario suggested by the theory
of evolution did not take place is the fossil record.
According to this theory, every living species has sprung from a
predecessor. A previously existing species turned into something el-
se over time and all species have come into being in this way. In ot-
her words, this transformation proceeds gradually over millions of
years.
Had this been the case, numerous intermediary species should
have existed and lived within this long transformation period.
For instance, some half-fish/half-reptiles should have lived in
the past which had acquired some reptilian traits in addition to the
fish traits they already had. Or there should have existed some repti-
le-birds, which acquired some bird traits in addition to the reptilian
traits they already had. Since these would be in a transitional phase,
they should be disabled, defective, crippled living beings. Evoluti-
onists refer to these imaginary creatures, which they believe to have
lived in the past, as "transitional forms."
If such animals ever really existed, there should be millions and
