DARWIN'S FLOWER MYSTERY

In 1879, some twenty years after the publication of his famous Origin of Species, Charles Darwin wrote a letter to botanist Dr Joseph Hooker. One sentence in particular underscored a vexing problem for evolutionary theory: “The rapid development as far as we can judge of all the higher plants within recent geological times is an abominable mystery.”

As BBC Science put it, “The famous naturalist was haunted by the question of how the first flowering plants evolved.”

OUT OF PLACE FLOWER FOSSILS

Evolutionists have to ignore or try to explain away various ‘out-of-place’ angiosperm fossils from beneath their supposed first appearance in Cretaceous rocks. For example, fossil “pollen of the Compositae” (the daisy family), which is found all the way down in the Precambrian, presumed by evolutionists to encompass the time that life first evolved. This would mean flowering plants preceded the allegedly ‘more primitive’ plants, such as algae, mosses, ferns, and pine trees.

This is still a problem for evolution. Evolutionists try to explain these curiosities away with extreme denial or ignoring the problem altogether.
