Quote from Charles Darwin
"As by this theory innumerable transitional forms must have existed, why do we not find them embedded in the countless numbers in the crust of the earth? The number of intermediate links between all living and extinct species must have been inconceivably great."
Darwin was onto something when he said this.
In the Cambrian period, we see what’s often called the “Cambrian Explosion” — a relatively short window of geological time when a huge variety of complex animals with entirely new body plans suddenly appeared in the fossil record.
What’s striking is that these creatures seem to emerge fully formed, with little to no clear transitional fossils showing how they developed from simpler ancestors.
Some point to tiny pre-Cambrian life forms as possible precursors, but these do not convincingly show the step-by-step changes you'd expect from Darwinian evolution. There's a major gap between those simple organisms and the complex, organised body structures that suddenly show up in the Cambrian layer.
This raises a fair question: If evolution is gradual, where are the in-between forms leading up to all these new body types?
Also, Jesus disproved evolution in one sentence. So, as Christians, we either believe Jesus or we make Him out to be a liar.
He said, "In the beginning God made them male and female."
For a Christian, this should blow evolution out of the water.
