Acceptance after denial

The admission that Darwinists fail to hide behind their language of denial is expressed as follows by
various scientists and Darwinists themselves.
Biologist William Fix:

Scientists at the forefront of inquiry have put the knife to classical Darwinism. They have not gone public
with this news, but have kept it in their technical papers and inner counsels. 164

Darwinist anthropologist Robert A. Martin:

In 1972 Niles Eldredge of the American Museum of Natural History and Steven Jay Gould of Harvard
University published a paper introducing the concept of “punctuated equilibrium.” If evolution progresses
in a slow, methodical, and gradual fashion, they asked, where are all the fossil intermediates between
species? Perhaps they are difficult to find because they do not exist. 165

Darwinist T. H. Frazzetta from the University of Illinois Ecology Department:

With each passing year the once rather simplistic views on evolution continue to crumble. 166

French Darwinist Jean Pierre Lehman:

Darwinism in its ancient and classical form has broken down. 167

The Darwinist and Science editor Gordon Rattray Taylor:

And be that as it may, the evidence is accumulating that chance is insufficient to explain the appearance of
marvelously coordinated structures and perfectly adapted behavior which biologists are uncovering. As two

American biologists have recently declared: ‘The main puzzle, the problem of the mechanism of evolution,
is far from being solved.’ 168

In short, the dogma which has dominated much biological thinking for more than a century is col-
lapsing.
Darwinist and Professor of Physics H. S. Lipson:

lapsing.

Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and Darwinist E. O. Wiley:

(Norman) MacBeth suggests that we try to look at evolution with new eyes, that we admit to the public, and,
if needed, to ourselves, that we have misgivings about Darwinism, and the synthetic theory, that we open
debate. I think these are excellent suggestions. 170

Journalist Larry Witham:

I interviewed dozens and dozens of scientists and, when they're amongst each other or talking to a journal-
ist who they trust, they'll speak about 'It's incredibly complex' or 'Molecular Biology is in a crisis', but, pub-

licly, they can't say that. 171
That is where Darwinism is now. Darwinists now doubt the theory they espoused so fanatically for

many years. The global deception that is Darwinism has now come to an end.
The passionate adherents of Darwinism perhaps never imagined until now that they would lose this
war they declared against belief in Allah (surely Allah is beyond that). The means at their disposal, the
circles they influenced, and the support they received from various states led them to regard themselves
