The Deception of Evolution
We have examined the collapse of the theory of evolution and
the proofs of creation in great scientific detail in many of our
works, and are still continuing to do so. Given the enormous im-
portance of this subject, it will be of great benefit to summarize it
here.

THE SCIENTIFIC COLLAPSE
OF DARWINISM
Although this doctrine goes back as far as ancient Greece,
the theory of evolution was advanced extensively in the nine-
teenth century. The most important development that made it
the top topic of the world of science was Charles Darwin's The
Origin of Species, published in 1859. In this book, he denied that
Allah created different living species on Earth separately, for
he claimed that all living beings had a common ancestor and
had diversified over time through small changes. Darwin's
theory was not based on any concrete scientific finding; as he
also accepted, it was just an "assumption." Moreover, as
Darwin confessed in the long chapter of his book titled
"Difficulties of the Theory," the theory failed in the face of
many critical questions.
Darwin invested all of his hopes in new scientific discover-
ies, which he expected to solve these difficulties. However,
contrary to his expectations, scientific findings expanded the
dimensions of these difficulties. The defeat of Darwinism in
the face of science can be reviewed under three basic topics:
1) The theory cannot explain how life originated on Earth.
2) No scientific finding shows that the "evolutionary mech-
anisms" proposed by the theory have any evolutionary power
at all.
3) The fossil record proves the exact opposite of what the
