I think I’m probably right in assuming that most of you have heard of the Big Bang. It says that first there was nothing and then it exploded and became our universe. But have you heard of the Big Life Explosions. They happened mainly in the Cambrian period - 542 to 488.3 million years ago. But they also happened in other periods as well. When they happened winged insects, birds, flowering plants, mammals, and many other groups appeared suddenly in the fossil records. The sudden appearance of these new life forms had no connection to previously existing life forms. In other words this life wasn’t there one moment, and then it was. Did it arrive through Darwin’s process of evolution? There’s absolutely no evidence to support that theory about how these life forms appeared. Darwin knew that his theory had a serious problem here. What did he do to accommodate this in his Theory to stop it falling to pieces?
