The Origin of Life and the Universe

                 "Darwinism Prevents Teaching of Science"


                                           Albert Einstein once said:
                                       “The scientists’ religious feeling takes the form
                                       of a rapturous amazement at the harmony of
                                       natural law, which reveals an intelligence of
                                       such superiority that, compared with it, all
                                       the systematic thinking and acting of human
                                       beings is an utterly insignificant reflection.”

                                           The Owner of this awe-inspiring intel-
                                       ligence is God.
               We don’t actually need to hear it from a scientist to understand this fact.
           Our own intelligence is enough to show us the existence of a Creator because
           we all have the capability of assessing what we see and come to a conclusion.
               Everywhere we look, we see an incredible order; from the perfect
           mechanisms of millions of different species to the endless variety of vegetables
           and fruits, from the delicate balances on our planet to the precise levels of
           oxygen in the air. Knowing and seeing all of this is enough to make us clearly
           realize the existence of God, Who has infinite wisdom. Needless to say, science
           and technology, which advance at a mind-boggling rate, are our biggest
           helpers in this understanding.
               With the advance of technology, scientists are able to make much better
           and more accurate observations. For instance, the Hubble Telescope proved
           that the universe had a beginning and was created. With the advance of
           technology and the onset of advanced scanning electron microscopes, we
           were able to examine the tiniest details of the living cell, including the DNA,
           and there we encountered an incredible complexity that has absolutely no
               room for coincidences. This was such a precise order that the scientists
