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.
