Octopus fossil disproves Darwin; proves Intelligent Design
http://objectiveministries.org/creation/octopus.html <== It's all here

In Lebanon, the Biblical land of the mighty cedar trees, miraculously well-preserved fossils of octopuses were discovered in a cretaceous layer of Flood sediment. Here is a photo of the best of the five:



Octopuses do not normally fossilize well, mainly due to their boneless bodies and gelatinous flesh. During the Flood, when most fossils were created, any octopuses near the shores would have been beaten to goo by the raging waters. Those in the deeper seas would have avoided fossilization by easily escaping the falling sediment and rocks roused by the Deluge, as octopuses are well known as the Houdini's of God's Creation. In fact, only one other set of octopus fossils is known, and that not nearly as well preserved. So these fossils truly are a miracle left by God as a sign. But what is the meaning?

AD: Learn more about octopuses at Conservapedia.

The fine-grained, chalky sediment (which is why it is named the cretaceous layer -- not because of the so-called "Cretaceous Era" of Darwinian theory) did such a great job preserving the fine details of the animal, that for the first time we can see what they really looked like in the past. As it turns out, they look exactly like modern octopuses! God has told us of His Creation through the miracle of octopus fossils!

This discovery has put the Darwinists into panic mode. They have been frantically trying to find any little differences in the fossils to claim that they show evolution. But what differences they have found are all well within the range of post-Fall microdegeneracy caused by genetic entropy -- for instance, the degeneration of the internal gladius shells that the octopuses frolicking in the lakes of Eden would have had. This degenerative effect has already been noted by Baraminologists among the hundreds of octopus variations within the Octopod baramin, so it comes as no surprise. Even National Geographic, a militantly Darwinian magazine, can't help but admit that the fossil octopuses "look indistinguishable from living species".

This doesn't look good for Darwin and his fans.



Please note: Darwinist model is abridged since in reality every little change would require another
step. Also note the half-eyes and half-arms that would necessarily be required for the Darwinian
transmutation from a notopus to an octopus. Already we can see the Creation model is more
parsimonious, and thus favored by Occam's Razor.

Now let us compare the fossil to the ancestors as predicted by both the Darwinian and Creation Science models:



As you can plainly see, it is striking how closely the prediction of the Creation Science model of octopus origins matches what we see in the fossil data. Once again, science supports the Bible and contradicts Evolutionism.

4. Um .. that's not a fossilized octopus: it's the remains of a small interstellar spaceship.
See the jet-propulsion flames coming out the back? It's still more proof that intelligent life the distant galaxy Oetipus Rex colonized earth millions of light-years ago
