EXTINCTION MADE FISH EVOLVE,
according to articles in Science Daily 1 December 2014 and Fossil Science 6
December 2014, both entitled “Mass extinction led to many new species of bony
fish”.
ED. COM. The idea that extinctions led to the origin and
development of other kinds of creatures is common in evolutionary theory. The
most familiar version of this idea is that the demise of the dinosaurs at the
end of the Cretaceous period led to the rapid evolution of mammals and birds.
Now the evolutionists want to apply it to bony fish. However, it doesn't matter
what group of creatures you apply this logic to, extinction is not evolution,
nor can it ever cause evolution. You need only ask the question: How does the
absence of one kind of creature create the new genes in another creature that
are needed for it to turn into a different kind? It is true that if an
ecological niche becomes empty, then other already existing creatures may move
into it, but an empty space cannot make new creatures appear that did not
already exist. The apparent appearance of new creatures in the fossil record is
really only the result of the way rock layers have been classified the way
Charles Lyell taught us: according to the fossils that are found in them, not
because anyone observed new creatures coming into being. And so the circle goes
round. The belief in extinction-driven evolution is another example of how
evolutionary theory has nothing to do with the real world of biology. Modern day
ecologists, who study biodiversity, work hard to prevent extinctions. You never
hear politically active environmentalists claiming the current rate of
extinction is a good thing because many new creatures are about to evolve. In
fact, extinctions are a reminder of how much the earth has gone downhill ever
since God cursed the ground and later judged the whole earth with a flood
because of mankind’s disobedience to our Creator. (Ref. fossils, ichthyology,
