If necessity is the cause of all these changes then why is it that we still have examples of creatures which are identical to those of some 500 million years ago?

Ah, the old "why are there still monkeys" argument. Your friends over at AIG asked that y'all not use that argument any more, as it is obviously fallacious.

No, it is not the 'why are there still monkeys argument'. The fact is that unless you can show how a species 'knows' how to stop evolving, unless you can show how a species 'knows' how to stop mutating, unless you can show how a species 'knows' that it has generated the required amoung of transformations to keep evolution going and it needs to stop mutating, then stasis is very strong proof against evolution. When we can see numerous species which have not changed for hundreds of millions of years one has to ask - why did they stop mutating? Why don't they mutate like all the other creatures supposedly do according to evolution.

In this the argument of necessity does not work. If necessity was the cause of transformations, then no 'primitive' species should exist. Because 'survival of the fittest' should have destroyed all those who failed to 'get on with the program'. This is why evolution is total bunk. It is full of internal inconsistencies and that is why it is not science. It is, as I say - pseudo-science for morons. And that is why, like the Communist and other tyrannical liars, that evolution must try to shut off discussion by firing professors who talk against it, demonize those who write against it and insult those who dare tell the truth about the false theory of evolution.
