The idea that the 'coelacanth is an example of the transition from sea to land' is a fraud

land' is a fraud
Even the discovery of a living dinosaur would have been less
surprising. Because fossils show that the coelacanth existed 150-200
million years before the appearance of the dinosaurs. The creature put
forward by many scientists as the ancestor of land-dwelling
vertebrates, believed to have disappeared at least 70 million years
ago, had been found! 1
These words from a Darwinist, in the April 2003 issue of Focus
magazine, describe the astonishment at the discovery of a living
Coelacanth ( Latimeria chalumnae ), for years portrayed as a
transitional form, in today's waters. Prior to 1938, Darwinists had
made countless claims about the fossil Coelacanth, interpreting its
fins as "legs about to start walking" and a fossilized oil sac as "a
primitive lung." With all this speculation about the fossil, they
suggested that they had discovered a missing link.
The capture of a living Coelacanth at such a time came as a terrible
disappointment to Darwinists. This and more than 200 other living
Coelacanths, the latest of which was caught in May 2007, totally
discredited all theDarwinist conjecture about the fossils. It was
realized that the Coelacanth was an exceedingly complex and highly
developed bottom-dwelling fish, about 150 cm in length. In addition,
the animals showed no sign of change over 450 million years. To put it
another way, its complexity today is the same as it was 450 million
years in the past.
Following the scientific realization of all this, theCoelacanth
assumed its place as an example of a living fossil and all the claims
about its being a transitional form were withdrawn. Darwinists lost
yet another fossil they had speculated about so much. Had this animal
not been found today's seas, then, just aswith Archaeopteryx , there
would have been no end to the Darwinist speculation regarding it.It
would still be depictedas the greatest representative of the passage
from water to land, and there would be thousands of pieces of
conjecture about it being AS IF THE UNQUESTIONABLE FINEST TRANSITIONAL
FORM. And Darwinists would also bemaking attempts those saying that
the animal is not a transitional form, but rather a perfect marine
organism. Just asis happening with all theother transitional form
claims now.
But the fact is that those who wish to deceive others with no
scientific basis will never achieve their ends. As our Lord says in a
verse:
Do not mix up truth withfalsehood and knowingly hide the truth. (Surat
al-Baqara, 42) - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
