With Ray Comfort releasing a version of Darwin's Origin of Species with a 50 page propaganda introductions I decided to talk about this dumb asses dumb ass arguments starting with the Crocoduck.

Its basically the argument "why don't we find fossils that are half 'this' and half 'that'?" where said "this" and "that" are usually modern species that are often unrelated to each other (well not really, more distantly related). For example: The crocoduck (imaged above), half cat half dog, half man half monkey (half ape half man doesn't count because humans are apes).
It's ignorance of evolution that is on an astonishing but not surprising scale. Even many creationists world cringe at hearing such an argument knowing how stupid it is.

Transitional fossils will not look like a cross between two currently existing species.
Populations change over time, species change over time. Millions of years ago, our ancestors did not look like modern humans. The same goes for the vast majority of species.

Of course there are some exceptions. Like Tiktaalik

But of course finding what they want will not convince them, they will either move the goal post or just ignore it entirely.
