The Deception Of Evolution                 77


               The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of a cell and
             which stores genetic information, is an incredible databank. If the
             information coded in DNA were written down, it would make a giant
             library consisting of an estimated 900 volumes of encyclopedias
             consisting of 500 pages each.
               A very interesting dilemma emerges at this point: DNA can

             replicate itself only with the help of some specialized proteins
             (enzymes). However, the synthesis of these enzymes can be realized
             only by the information coded in DNA. As they both depend on each
             other, they have to exist at the same time for replication. This brings
             the scenario that life originated by itself to a deadlock. Prof. Leslie
             Orgel, an evolutionist of repute from the University of San Diego,
             California, confesses this fact in the September 1994 issue of the
             Scientific American magazine:
               It is extremely improbable that proteins and nucleic acids, both of which
               are structurally complex, arose spontaneously in the same place at the
               same time. Yet it also seems impossible to have one without the other. And
               so, at first glance, one might have to conclude that life could never, in fact,
               have originated by chemical means. 6

               No doubt, if it is impossible for life to have originated from natural
             causes, then it has to be accepted that life was "created" in a
             supernatural way. This fact explicitly invalidates the theory of
             evolution, whose main purpose is to deny creation.


               Imaginary Mechanisms of Evolution

               The second important point that negates Darwin's theory is that
             both concepts put forward by the theory as "evolutionary
             mechanisms" were understood to have, in reality, no evolutionary
             power.
