The Myth of the Evolution of Fish with Lungs

Evolutionists resort to evolutionist tales regarding fish with
lungs and maintain that these fish were the first vertebrates to
move from water to dry land. However, the idea of the passage from
water to dry land and the role assumed to have been played in this
scenario by fish with lungs stem solely from blind devotion to the
theory of evolution. Evolutionists are unable to produce any
concrete evidence to support their claims. This can clearly be seen
from Darwinist writings. One sees tales about how fish supposedly
developed lungs in order to be able to make use of the oxygen in the
air and how their fins turned into feet to enable them to walk on
land. But these people are unable to produce any fossil evidence
for their claims. The reason for this is clear: such a passage is
entirely imaginary and there is no scientific evidence to support
it.
On the contrary, the scientific evidence refutes these Darwinist
tales. The weakness of the evolutionary myths about fish with lungs
is a fact explicitly and frequently brought up even in evolutionist
literature.
Fish with lungs are able to breathe air and to survive in dry
periods thanks to an astonishing metabolic arrangement and system.
These fish, which have to rise to the surface approximately every 20
minutes, bury themselves inside a cocoon made of mud in dry seasons
when the waters retract and enter into a kind of summer sleep,
known as aestivation. This time, when their metabolisms slow down
enormously, will last for months, or sometimes even for years,
until the rains begin again.
Some evolutionists claim that these creatures are left over from this
so called period, living transitional forms. According to this
entirely imaginary evolutionist fantasy, the fish in question were
imprisoned in very small bodies of water caused by a drought in the
Devonian Period, some 300 million years ago, and learned how to
walk from one pool to another. Some evolutionists regard these fish
as the supposed ancestors of amphibians (and quadrupeds).
There are enormous difference, in terms of skeletons and organs,
between amphibians and the fish with lungs alleged to be their
ancestors. In a paper published in the Journal of Molecular
Evolution the researchers C. Marshall and H. P. Schultz wrote
that,"Morphological analysis of the "living fossils," the coelacanth
and lungfish, has only lead to confusion regarding possible evolution
of tetrapods." (Marshall C. and Schultze HP. Journal of Molecular
Evolution 35 (2): 93-101, 1992.)
A paper in the Proceedings of the Linnean Society admitted the
dilemma facing the supposed evolutionary origins of fish with lungs
– portrayed as resting on very sure foundations:
"… the lungfishes, like every other major group of fishes that I know,
have their origins firmly based innothing." (Quoted in W. R. Bird, The
Origin of Species Revisited [Nashville: Regency, 1991; originally
published by Philosophical Library, 1987],
1:62-63)
In his book "Evolution: A Theory in Crisis,"the molecular biologist
Michael Denton wrote thatevolutionists described fish with lungs as a
transitional form between fish and amphibians, but said that the
individual characteristics of fish with lungs"in no way represent a
realistic passage between the two." ("Evolution: A Theory in Crisis",
Michael Denton, Adler and Adler: Bethesda, Maryland, 3rd ed. 1986,
p. 109)
The fossil record also deals a heavy blow to evolutionist scenarios
regarding fish with lungs. These have remained unchanged for
hundreds of millions of years and fossils belonging to these
creatures are identical to specimens living today. Not a single
fossil exists to justify the claim that the lungs in this fish
developed gradually. This shows that fish with lungs are rather
evidence against evolution, not for it . It is clear in the light of
the above facts that the idea that fish with lungs represent an
evolutionary phase is simply a fantasy.
What evolutionists are doing is to try to spread a scenario about
fish with lungs as if they were the scientific truth and to ignore
the objections to that scenario that can easily be found in the
scientific literature. This is a blind endeavor to spread Darwinist
propaganda with unscientific myths.
Like all living things, fish with lungs exhibited sublime
complexities far beyond the reach of even the most advanced
technologies. And like all living things they are proof of a flawless
Creation. The idea that fish one day moved from the water to dry
land and developed lungs and feet with the help of blind chance is a
myth. The truth is that Almighty Allah has perfectly created these
animals.
