A Whale of a Problem
Whales are mammals but live entirely in the sea, posing a major problem for evolutionary claims. Their existence shows that not all mammals are related by descent. Instead, whales confirm God’s creation of distinct kinds from the beginning.
Mark W. Cadwallader: Consider a whale of a problem next on today's Creation Moments. And now here's our Creation Moments host, Ian Taylor.
Ian T. Taylor: According to evolution, life began in the sea. However, because the land was better for life, evolution developed land life from sea life. It was on land that mammals evolved, getting bigger and better and more complex, according to evolution. Here though, evolution has painted itself into a corner, or perhaps it's better to say that evolutionists have fallen into one of the traps set for them by the Creator.
You see, the largest creatures on earth live in the sea, and they are mammals. The great whales are mammals like many land animals. However, it is very clear that they never lived on land, nor do they resemble any land creature. Whales provide excellent evidence that, contrary to evolution's claims, not even all mammals are related to each other.
And if mammals are so different that they cannot be related to each other through evolution, neither is it likely that bugs and trees and cows and man could be related by evolution either. As Genesis so clearly tells us, living things were originally made in distinct kinds, and they continue to reproduce after their kind.
One wants to ask the evolutionist: if the drive to live on land was so great it moved sea creatures to become land creatures, why did some mammals go to all the trouble to move back to the sea? To say the least, whales offer Bible-believing Christians a great testimony to our Creator and a great argument against evolution. For evolutionists, mammals who live in the sea are a whale of a problem.
