MIRROR
MEDITATION
By GMMITT L. BRINSON
Everyone In his lifetime has
heard much about the missing
link. Evolutionists have tried
to find this link in their search
for the step by step growth of
man to his present stature.
As yet is has never been
found—and it never will—be
cause the answer lies in the
peculiar growth of the brain,
within man alone. Man’s dis
tinct design.
In a report in 1958 by Loren
Elseley, the eminent Scientist
of the University of Penna.,
he states “man’s brain at the
time of birth is the same as
that of the gorilla—and at that
time the two Infants will look
pretty much alike, however
in a few short months after
birth the brain of man literally
mushrooms to three times its
size!’’
It is a peculiar leap, unlike
anything known in the animal
world, giving man the unique
qualities he possesses. Scien
tists have dissected the brains
of many types of monkeys and
animals in an effort to com
pare. As yet they have not
found anything that would cause
this phenominal change in the
infant’s brain, this biological
law.
In other animal families there
is very little change in struc
ture over a period of the ages,
or they find in research, the
step by step process of any
change. But not so with man.
This is the link they try to
locate.
During the ice ages many
types of animals and birds be
came extinct. From the geolo
gical finds, advanced man ap
peared after those ages. Prior
to his appearance this world
was ruled by the animal king
dom-survival of the fittest.
Through the human mind, time
and darkness, good and evil,
entered and possessed the
world.
But this step of the human
did not come from animal line
age. If so it cannot be traced.
The many finds as claimed by
science merely shows resem
blance and dlflnitely keeps their
finds intact . within limited
groups.
There is no link in this im
aginary chain. The door which
opened, ushering mankind on
this globe only opened once, and
the law and order behind this
design will not change. Our
very basic rules of existence
arise from this beginning.
First, the brain has to treble
In size. Second, this had to be
affected, not In the womb, but
rapidly after birth. Third,
childhood had to be lengthened
to allow this brain, devested
of most of its precise instinc
tive responses, to receive,
store and learn to utilize what
it received from others. Fourth,
family bonds had to survive sea
sonal mating and become per
manent, If this creature were
to be prepared for the adult
role as planned by the Creator.

at once, a unit in the mind of
the Creator—potentially im
mortal.
Man has since in leaps and
bounds, and even more so re
cently, accelerated because he
strove against extinction.
I sometimes wonder in deeper
thoughts. In the Infancy of this
universe, all life within the set
patterns of law and order, could
not survive the as yet untamed
elements. The animal kingdom
was a step by step process of
trial and error, until all things
had proven good in the sight
of the Creator. The last step
was not a trial by the Creator,
but a vast leap because it is
written:
“And the Lord God formed
man of the dust of the ground,
and breathed into his nostrils
the breath of life; and man be
came a living soul.’’ “Created
in his own image.”
No, my friends—the missing
link will never be found.
