FOSSIL SPECIMENS OF PLANTS

HACKBERRY LEAF
Age: 45 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Green River Formation, Wyoming, USA
Hackberries are generally medium-sized trees, reaching a height of 10 to 25 meters (33 to 82 feet).
Like all other plants, hackberries have always
remained as hackberries, as is testified by the fossil record. All
hackberry fossils unearthed to date reveal that the hackberries of
today are identical with those that lived tens of millions of years ago.
This exact similarity refutes the theory of evolution. |

FERN
Age: 300 million years
Period: Westphalian B., Duckmantian, Upper Carboniferous
Location: Crock Hey Open Cast Quarry, Wigan, Lancashire, United Kingdom
Fossil record proves that plants, like all other living beings, have
undergone no evolutionary process. Ferns that lived 300 million years
ago are completely identical to contemporary ones, in both their
structure and appearance. This identity renders evolution impossible,
revealing Creation as a scientifically obvious fact. All-Mighty God
created all living beings flawlessly and completely, with all their
current features intact, which fact is also supported by the fossil
record. |

BEECH
Age: 50 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
Beeches, of the Fagaceae family, are native to temperate Europe, Asia
and North America. Fossil record affords one of the most striking
evidence proving that these trees have never undergone evolution.
Beeches, whose traces always appear with the same features in the
fossil record, have not undergone the slightest change for tens of
millions of years, which shows that these trees did not gradually
evolve from any other plant. With His superior wisdom, our Lord created
the beech perfectly, as with all other living species, and with no
prior examples. |

ZELKOVA LEAF
Age: 50 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
Having accepted evolution as their primary dogma and "pushing" plants
to comply with their evolutionary scenario—despite their total lack of
qualifications to do so—Darwinists are reluctant to admit that fossil
record runs against their theory. Furthermore, they make meticulous
efforts to hide this fact from the public. One of the evidence showing
that fossil plants go against evolutionary explanations is the
50-million-year-old fossil zelkova leaf pictured. Zelkovas that are 50
million years old are identical to contemporary ones. This piece of
information alone is enough to render the theory of evolution invalid. |

GINKGO LEAF
Age: 50 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
Ginkgo tree dates back some 250 million years. The first to name these
plants as "the living fossils" was Charles Darwin. Aware that ginkgo
leaves posed a threat to his theory, Darwin definitely never expected
that this threat would be supported by millions of other living fossils
that would come to light in the following years. While one single
living fossil specimen made Darwin reach a deadlock, Darwinists today
must explain millions of flawless specimens. The 50-million-year-old
ginkgo leaf pictured is just one of these examples. |

ELM LEAF WITH SECTION OF BRANCH
Age: 54-37 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
In the fossil record, there exists not a single specimen revealing that
one species of plant has come into being by evolving from another
species by a series of minor changes. Countless fossil specimens
unearthed reveal that every plant has been created with features of its
own, and that it has remained unchanged as long as the species existed.
One of the findings that prove this fact is this 54- to
37-million-year-old elm leaf fossil. |

ROBINIA (right) AND BIRCH LEAVES
Age: 54-37 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
Today, Robinia live mainly in North America, Europe and regions of Asia
that enjoy temperate climates. Birches that belong to the family
Betulaceae are also widespread in temperate climates. Fossils of these
plants evidence that birches have not gone through any evolutionary
process. For tens of millions of years, Robinia and birch trees have
remained in their original form to reveal that evolution is a lie and
Creation is an obvious fact.
|

WILLOW
Age: 54-37 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
Willows are deciduous trees that belong to the Salicaceae family. Like
all other plant species, willows have remained unchanged for millions
of years. In other words, they have not gone through evolution.
Willows, simply refuting Darwinists' claims of gradual evolution, once
again verify that God created them, together with all living beings.
The 54- to 37- million-year-old willow leaf fossil pictured is one
important piece of evidence. |

FERN
Age: 300 million years
Period: Upper Carboniferous
Location: Crock Hey Open Cast Quarry, Wigan, Lancashire, United Kingdom
Living organisms that remained unchanged for hundreds of millions of
years refute all Darwinist claims regarding the origins and development
of life. Darwinists claim that living beings undergo constant genetic
change that results in evolution. Fossils, on the other hand, reveal
that living beings have never changed since the first moment they
appeared. The meaning is clear: Living beings have not evolved, but
were created by Almighty God. |

MOUNTAIN ASH BRANCH
Age: 54-37 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Cache Creek Formation, British Columbia, Canada
Mountain ash is a tree of the genus Sorbus, widespread in cooler
regions of North America. One of the findings that put Darwinists in an
impasse is the fossil of a plant like this, which reveals that the tree
in question has never, in any period of history, undergone any
evolutionary process. The 54- to 37-million-year-old fossil pictured is
one of these findings, proving that mountain ash trees have remained
the same for tens of millions of years; and that God created them. |
