SIMILARITIES BETWEEN LIVING CREATURES
DO NOT PROVE THAT THEY COME FROM A
COMMON ANCESTOR
Evolutionists frequently point to similarities be-
tween living creatures as evidence to support their
claims. For example, the bones in a human arm, a
whale’s fin and a bat’s wing have similar structure.
This, according to evolutionists, proves that the ani-
mals in question evolved from one single ancestor.
However, it is mistaken to think in this way. Actually,
this similarity is evidence that all living creatures have
been designed according to a plan. From what we
have observed in nature, it is evident that a Creator
has formed all life within the scope of a similar plan,
and fashioned all living creatures in accordance with
their needs. When we examine the scientific evidence,
the “common design” explanation emerges as the cor-
rect one.
