THE MIRACLE OF THE
BLOOD AND HEART
oxygen in the body, and hemoglobin would carry too much
oxygen to the muscles, which would cause them to exhaust
themselves. But neither hemoglobin nor myoglobin carries
oxygen to wrong locations in the body. These molecules fully
discharge their duties under the command of God, the
Almighty Lord of the worlds.
In one verse it is revealed:
Is it other than the religion of God that you desire, when
everything in the heavens and Earth, willingly or unwill-
ingly, submits to Him and to Him you will be returned?
(Surah Al 'Imran: 83)
Evolution's Groundless Claims Regarding
Hemoglobin and Myoglobin
The hemoglobin and myoglobin molecules, which per-
form similar functions, also have the similar molecular fea-
tures. Their heme groups are no different from one another,
and their chains fold in the same way. Evolutionists regarded
this similarity as evidence for their theory, and in 1959
declared that these two molecules were "related."
But many structures in nature are molecularly similar. Two
molecules differentiated by only a single atom can constitute
two entirely different structures. Indeed, even if the atoms are
the same and only the bonds between them are different, one
molecule can constitute a delicious food and the other can
form a tree branch. Hemoglobin and myoglobin are two dif-
ferent molecules with almost identical properties. True,
they have similar structures. Yet it is irrational to sug-
gest that hemoglobin "evolved" from myoglobin.
Like every other evolutionist claim, this idea is
