The Fact of Creation-2 A pictorial reconstruction of
Confuciusornis (above) The theory of evolution claims that birds

reptiles. The fact is, however, that anatomical comparisons
between birds and reptiles refute this claim, as does the fossil
record. The fossil pictured belongs to an extinct species of
bird known as Confuciusornis, the first specimen of which was
discovered in China in 1995. Confuciusornis bears a close
resemblance to present-day birds and has demolished the scenario
of avian evolution. A present-day specimen of hornbeam leaf
Hornbeams of some 30 to 40 different species occur across much
of the North Temperate regions, with the greatest number of
species in East Asia, particularly China. A few species occur in
Europe and North America. Fossil findings reveal that hornbeams

proclaim Creation as an obvious fact.. A
