A Spoof on Evolution Theory
The theory of evolution teaches that living things are becoming
more complex as time progresses. Because the chromosomes in
living matter are one of the most complex bits of matter in the
known universe, it would seem logical to assume that organisms
with the least number of chromosomes were the first ones to
evolve and those with the most chromosomes are the end result of
millions of years of evolution experimenting to increase
complexity in living organisms. From the chart, it is "obvious"
that we all started off as penicillium with only 2 chromosomes,
and that we slowly evolved into fruit flies. After many "millions
of years" we turned into tomatoes (or house flies) and so on,
until we reached the human stage with 46 chromosomes. One of our
ancestors must have been one of the identical triplets—opossums,
redwood trees, and kidney beans—with 22 chromosomes each.
If we are allowed to "continue evolving" we may someday be
tobacco plants and maybe we may even become carp with 100, or
maybe even the ultimate life form, a fern with 480 chromosomes!
Don’t you believe it! God made this world and all life forms, as
recorded in the Bible.
