From the blue whale to the virus, from the macro to the micro, current scientific evidence reveals Darwinism's most fatal flaw–the billions of missing links in the story of chance development of life.
Dr. Geoffrey Simmons reveals how interdependent structures and systems–massive complexity upon massive complexity–apparently came about all at once, whole and entire. There are no precedents, no in-betweens, no mistakes, no first tries. He lifts the lid on dozens of Darwinian dilemmas:
-
the fossilized reptile with feathers that supposedly changed into a bird able to take off, fly, land safely, build nests, and lay eggs that don't fall to the ground
-
the walking fish that, while still in the sea, came up with a way to find food on land–as well as keep from drying out and burning its tender feet on hot sand
-
the unlucky skunk ancestor that had to try out different scents until it found one that worked to chase off predators
Dr. Geoffrey Simmons focuses on the millions of structures and systems on the Earth that came about all at once, entire...with no preceding links, no subsequent links, no “sideways” links.
To illustrate, he surveys examples like...
- the hummingbird and its circulatory system
- insects and insect–eating plants
- the role of the thousands of species of viruses
- chemical signals and the sensory apparatus that detects them
- the self–regulating capacity of the Earth’s ocean/air/soil system
It’s clear: Nature containsonly leaps, not links. Only the intelligence and purpose of an all–powerful Designer can explain the intricate creatures, connections, and “coincidences” everywhere.
A superb resource for students and parents, as well as educators who want to present the full picture.
