these barrels. Let these experts wait in turn beside these barrels for bil-
lions, and even trillions of years. Let them be free to use all kinds of con-
ditions they believe to be necessary for a human's formation. No matter
what they do, they cannot produce from these barrels a human, say a
professor that examines his cell structure under the electron micro-
scope. They cannot produce giraffes, lions, bees, canaries, horses, dol-
phins, roses, orchids, lilies, carnations, bananas, oranges, apples, dates,
tomatoes, melons, watermelons, figs, olives, grapes, peaches, peafowls,
pheasants, multicoloured butterflies, or millions of other living beings
such as these. Indeed, they could not obtain even a single cell of any one
of them.
Briefly, unconscious atoms cannot form the cell by coming to-
gether. They cannot take a new decision and divide this cell into two,
then take other decisions and create the professors who first invent the
electron microscope and then examine their own cell structure under that
microscope. Matter is an unconscious, lifeless heap, and it comes to life
with Allah's superior creation.
The theory of evolution, which claims the opposite, is a total fallacy
completely contrary to reason. Thinking even a little bit on the claims of
evolutionists discloses this reality, just as in the above example.

Technology in the Eye and the Ear
Another subject that remains unanswered by evolutionary theory is
the excellent quality of perception in the eye and the ear.
Before passing on to the subject of the eye, let us briefly answer the
question of how we see. Light rays coming from an object fall oppositely
on the eye's retina. Here, these light rays are transmitted into electric sig-
nals by cells and reach a tiny spot at the back of the brain, the "center of
vision." These electric signals are perceived in this center as an image
after a series of processes. With this technical background, let us do some
thinking.
The brain is insulated from light. That means that its inside is com-
pletely dark, and that no light reaches the place where it is located. Thus,
the "center of vision" is never touched by light and may even be the dark-
est place you have ever known. However, you observe a luminous,
bright world in this pitch darkness.
