There are hundreds of books about evolution, filled with specious facts,
under the control of the Darwinist dictatorship on the market today.

Perhaps the appearance of life on the Earth is a miracle. Scientists are reluctant to accept that view but their
choices are limited. Either life was created on the Earth by the will of a being outside the grasp of scientific
understanding, or it evolved on our planet spontaneously, through chemical reactions occurring in nonliv-

ing matter lying on the surface of the planet. The first theory places the question of the origin of life beyond
the reach of scientific inquiry. It is a statement of faith in the power of a supreme being not subject to the
laws of science. The second theory is also an act of faith. The act consists in assuming that the scientific view

of the origin of life is correct, without having concrete evidence to support that belief. 89
As Robert Jastrow eloquently states in these lines, Darwinism is taken as a belief system, but the be-

lief in question is a superstitious one, unsupported by any scientific evidence. Materialist thought makes
a grave error and utters a terrible lie when it regards the only scientific alternative to Darwinism, the
fact of creation, as unscientific. Creation is the reality to which science points. Scientific findings have
time and time again confirmed the fact that all of life is the work of a sublime and almighty intelligence,

in other words, of Almighty Allah. On the other hand, all the claims made by Darwinism have been re-
pudiated by all the branches of science. It is therefore a serious mistake, incompatible with the facts, to
imagine that anyone who believes in science should also espouse Darwinism.
It is most important to realize that Darwinism is not a science, but a superstitious religion. It there-

fore appears that Darwinism’s deception of the world has ideological causes. Every study undertaken
on behalf of Darwinism, every step taken in that direction, and every person deceived ever since the the-
ory was first launched is a part of the ideology of Darwinism. The way that Darwinism appears in text
books, has spread across just about the entire world, and is the only subject matter in just about all sci-

entific journals, newspapers and the television is no run of the mill matter; this state of affairs is actual-
ly exceedingly dangerous. Under the influence of this superstitious religion, people literally regard one
another as animals, regard it is legitimate for the strong to crush the weak, and begin to think of man as
a chance entity with no responsibility to Allah. The wars, occupations and conflicts that have broken out

under the influence of the superstition of Darwinism, perverted ideologies such as communism, fascism
