Transitional fossils are rare in the fossil record. A growing number of scientists now question that Archaeopteryx and other transitional fossils really are transitional forms. The fossil record as a whole shows that major evolutionary changes took place suddenly over brief periods of time followed by longer periods of stasis during which no significant change in form or transitional organisms appeared (Punctuated Equilibria). The Cambrian explosion of animal phyla is the best known, but not the only example, of the sudden appearance of new biological forms in the fossil record. Ok then: just what do 'real' Evolutionists find 'incorret about this paragraph?

The first two sentences are false. The next two sentences are perhaps literally true but are hollow as "challenges."
