The Deception of Evolution
3) The fossil record proves the exact opposite of what the theory
suggests.
In this section, we will examine these three basic points in general
outlines:
The First Insurmountable Step: The Origin of Life
The theory of evolution posits that all living species evolved from a
single living cell that emerged on the primitive Earth 3.8 billion years
ago. How a single cell could generate millions of complex living species
and, if such an evolution really occurred, why traces of it cannot be ob-
served in the fossil record are some of the questions that the theory can-
not answer. However, first and foremost, we need to ask: How did this
"first cell" originate?
Since the theory of evolution denies creation and any kind of super-
natural intervention, it maintains that the "first cell" originated coinci-
dentally within the laws of nature, without any design, plan or
arrangement. According to the theory, inanimate matter must have pro-
duced a living cell as a result of coincidences. Such a claim, however, is
inconsistent with the most unassailable rules of biology.
"Life Comes from Life"
In his book, Darwin never referred to the origin of life. The primi-
tive understanding of science in his time rested on the assumption that
living beings had a very simple structure. Since medieval times, sponta-
neous generation, which asserts that non-living materials came together
to form living organisms, had been widely accepted. It was commonly
believed that insects came into being from food leftovers, and mice from
wheat. Interesting experiments were conducted to prove this theory.
Some wheat was placed on a dirty piece of cloth, and it was believed that
