Darwinian Theory vs. the Fossil Record
Darwinian Theory attempts to explain the common ancestry of
all species through the gradual transformation of major body plans.
This theory is in opposition to the fossil evidence and the pervasive
patterns of natural history.
An estimated 75 to 100 phyla appear explosively at the base of
the Cambrian. Fossil evidence suggesting their common ancestry
is not found in Precambrian rocks. A General Theory of Macrostasis
is needed to explain the fossil data and the stability of the
higher taxa.
