made by a DNA gene, which would have to have about 1,000 nucleotides
in its chain. Since there are four kinds of nucleotides in a single DNA
chain, one with 1,000 links could exist in 4 1000 different forms [Emphasis
added]. That is 4 followed by a thousand zeros.
Yet all this complexity is required to make the simplest living creature. 11
Evolutionists claim that every structure in any living organism
came into being as the result of long, slow stages and formed by chance
by way of various mechanisms. (For more details on this subject, see
Harun Yahya, Darwinism Refuted.) But the fact is that mutation and nat-
ural selection, which evolutionists propose as evolutionary agents, ac-
tually provide no evolutionary properties at all. No organ in any living
thing has ever been observed to "evolve" by changing and assuming a
form that could be of benefit to the organism as a whole. In addition,
recent advances in medicine, biology and microbiology have revealed
that any change in the protein or genes of an organism will only result
in breakages, impairments and serious damage to its genetic informa-
tion.
It is impossible for any gene or protein to turn into some other
gene or protein with a completely different function. Evolutionists
claim that the first protein was formed by chance under totally uncon-
trolled conditions, but they have never been able to produce one in the
laboratory. It is unequivocally impossible for such a complex struc-
ture—which eminent scientists have been unable to reproduce using
modern-day technology in state-of-the-art laboratories—to have come
into existence spontaneously through random accidents.
Enzymes are all proteins, complex structures formed by way of
extraordinary information contained in genes that themselves cannot
have come into being by chance, and which function, at Allah's choos-
ing, under the control of that gene. It is therefore impossible for them
to have come into existence in stages, since the functions that enzymes
perform are too precise, and the information that genes contain is so
enormous.
