Tens Of Thousands Of Fossils In Amber Refute Evolution

One of the environments in which fossils are best preserved is amber. Clear sap flowed out of various kinds of trees and conifers, engulfing living things and preserving them in their original form. And such “snapshots out of time” reveal a very important fact: Living things have undergone no changes after millions of years. In other words, they never underwent evolution. Tens of thousands of fossils embedded in amber show that termites have always been termites. Ants have always been ants, frogs have always been frogs, snakes have always been snakes, butterflies always butterflies, and moths always moths. In short, living things have always existed in the forms they first displayed when they came into the world, with exactly the same features. There is no difference between living things  preserved in amber millions of years ago and their present-day counterparts. Fly, Dolichopodidae and cob web. Baltic amber, 50 million years old. Sometimes insects snagged in spider webs get trapped in amber. This fly, however, seems to be free of the web.

Examples Of Living Fossils Refute The Theory Of Evolution

50-Million-Year-Old Fossil Fish This 50 Million-Year-Old Fish Was Fossilized In The Process Of Swallowing Another Fish, Discovered In The Green River Region Of Wyoming, USA. This 50-Million-Year-Old Fossil Fish, Genus Priscacara, Dating Back To The Eocene Epoch, Was Also Discovered At Green River In Wyoming, Where Some Of The World’s Best-Known Fossil Discoveries Have Been Made. As With This Fish, Other Fossils Discovered In This Region Have Preserved A Large Portion Of Their Soft Tissues. Another 50-Million-Year-Old Fossil Fish. A Portion Of This 50-Million-Year-Old Eocene Freshwater Bass Fossil (Mioplosus Labracoides) Exhibits Fine Preservation. Today, Similar Species To This Live In Fresh Waters In The Northern Hemisphere And In Asia, Europe And New Zealand, Identical To Their 50-Million-Year-Old Counterparts.

THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES ACCORDING TO THE FOSSIL RECORDS

The Origin of Species According to the Fossil Record: CREATION The theory of evolution claims that all the living species on Earth descended, by means of a series of minute changes, from a common ancestor. To state the theory another way, living species are not separated from one another by absolute differences, but exhibit an inner continuity. However, actual observations in nature have indicated that there is no such continuity as claimed. What we see in the living world are different categories of organisms, separated by vast and distinct differences. Robert Carroll, an expert on vertebrate paleontology, admits this in his book Patterns and Processes of Vertebrate Evolution: Although an almost incomprehensible number of species inhabit Earth today, they do not form a continuous spectrum of barely distinguishable intermediates. Instead, nearly all species can be recognized as belonging to a relatively limited number of clearly distinct major groups…1 Evolution is a process alleged to have taken place in the past, and fossil discoveries are the only scientific source that can tell us about the history of life. Pierre Grassé says this on the subject: Naturalists must remember that the process of evolution is revealed only through fossil forms. … Only paleontology can provide them with the evidence of evolution and reveal its course or mechanisms.2 In order for the fossil record to shed light on this subject, we need to compare what the theory of evolution predicts against the actual fossil discoveries.

STASIS IN THE FOSSIL RECORDS

When we investigate natural history, we find not living things “evolving into different anatomical structures,” but ones that have remained unchanged, even over the course of hundreds of millions of years. This lack of change is referred to by scientists as “stasis.” Living fossils and organisms that have not survived down to the present day, but which have left their fossils behind in various strata of the Earth’s history are concrete proof of stasis in the fossil record. And this stasis shows that no gradual process of evolution ever occurred. In an article in the magazine Natural History, Stephen Jay Gould describes this inconsistency between the fossil record and the theory of evolution: A thornback ray fossil dating back to the Mesozoic era (245-65 million years ago) has exactly the same characteristics as those living in the sea today. This particular creature, about 250 million years old, clearly demonstrates that the evolutionary process is entirely fictitious.

EXAMPLES OF LIVING FOSSILS

Living fossil is the nickname given to organisms whose traces appear in the fossil layers from early geological periods, of which living specimens are still found today. These living things exhibit no differences from their counterparts from millions of years ago, and represent living examples of those long-dead fossil forms. Without doubt, the most important of these is the forementioned Cœlacanth. For many years, evolutionists portrayed it as the most significant supposed intermediate form, on which they wasted a great deal of speculation until the first surprise appeared in 1938. The Cœlacanth: An Example of a False Intermediate Form The evolutionist paleontologist J. L. B. Smith and the living Cœlacanth found in the Comoro Islands. This first specimen showed that the Cœlacanth was a fully-fledged fish, not an intermediate form as claimed by evolutionists. Another 200 specimens discovered since have confirmed this significant fact. A 410-million-year-old Cœlacanth fossil.

LIVING FOSSILS REFUTE EVOLUTION

The evolutionist magazine New Scientist described evolutionist contradictions in the face of living fossils: Some biologists marvel that there is any evolution at all, considering the possible pitfalls of change. “The idea is that organisms are so complex that it is very hard to change one aspect without wrecking everything else,” says [Yale paleontologist Elisabeth] Vrba. But it is extremely difficult to show that this is why our supreme survivors remain unchanged for millions of years.36 Niles Eldredge Of course it is hard for this fact to be explained in evolutionist terms, because adherents are looking for an explanation within the theory of evolution. Yet the living fossils reveal that living things did not descend from one another in stages, nor have they evolved in any way. The fossil record provides no examples of intermediate forms. Countless living things have remained unchanged for millions of years, and their current anatomical structures are exactly the same as they were millions of years ago. The fossil record is almost complete with both animal and plant specimens demonstrating this. It definitively and scientifically refutes evolution.

CONCLUSION

From time to time, newspapers and magazines report that a 200-million-year-old mosquito fossil has been found, or a 30-million-year-old lizard fossil discovered. Reading reports of that kind, one may well imagine that there is something special or unique about these fossils and that their like is seldom encountered. Yet that assumption is not correct. The Earth is filled with millions-of-years-old fossils of present-day living things. A very large part of these have been unearthed, and everywhere that paleontologists excavate and study, still they find fossil specimens of modern living things with all their flawless attributes. Kept in countries’ museums are millions-of-years-old spiders, ants, flies, spiders, scorpions, crabs, frogs and many other creatures, extinct and otherwise. Even specimens perfectly preserved in amber in all their detail are to be found in museums in their thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. Yet their numbers are seldom mentioned in books and newspapers, and scientific journals, forums and discussions do not address them. Why is this? The reason is that every “living” fossil discovered is another proof that demolishes evolution. Every single example of such a living species is enough to destroy the theory to which Darwinists dedicate their professional lives. For that reason, evolutionists attempt to keep large numbers of these fossils hidden. A 40-million-year-old fossil lizard in amber. Its head, front leg bones and some tissues are preserved. All the features of this lizard in the amber are identical to those of modern ones.
