^{The Latest} Why Fossils Cannot Demonstrate Darwinian Evolution

From the authors of The Design of Life, William Dembski & Jonathan Wells: “The transition from reptiles into mammals via mammal-like reptiles is regarded by many evolutionary theorists as the best example of an evolutionary lineage in the fossil record.
