106 Allah's Artistry In Colour

Times magazine:
I find it difficult to believe that the extravagant glories of birds, fish, flowers and
other living forms were produced solely by natural selection; I find it incredible
that human consciousness was such a product. How can man's brain, the
instrument which created all the riches of civilization, which served Socrates,
Shakespeare, Rembrandt, and Einstein, have been brought into being by a
struggle for survival among hunters of wild game in the Pleistocene wilder-
ness? 57
As understood from those confessions of evolutionists, they know that
their theory is in crisis. It is unreasonable to defend the idea that a cell, which

supposedly came into existence coincidentally as a result of lightning and
rains on the earth, turned into multicoloured living things over time.
Suppose a scientist to take a single cell of a bacterium for instance, provide
the most suitable laboratory conditions, use all the equipment required,
spend effort on having this cell evolve over millions of years (though this is
not possible, let us suppose it is); what would he acquire in the end? Would
he ever transform a bacterium into a peacock with its dazzling colours, or
into a leopard with perfect patterns on its skin, or into a rose with its red vel-
vet-like leaves? Of course, intelligent people can neither imagine such a thing
nor make such a claim. Yet, this is exactly the claim of the theory of evolu-
tion.

The "Colour" Impasse of Evolution
Let us verify with an example that it is impossible for the colours of liv-
ing beings and systems of transformation of colour to come about by natur-
al selection. Let us take chameleons for an example. Chameleons are animals
capable of adapting to the colours present in the environment and changing
their colours according to the surroundings. While resting on a green leaf,
they assume a green colour, while moving onto a brown branch, their skin
changes to brown in a very short time. Let us think together over how this
process of colour change takes place.
A living creature changes its colour as a consequence of highly complex
processes taking place in its body. It is impossible for a man to change either
his own colour or another living being's colour, because the human body is
not equipped with the proper systems for such an operation. Nor is it possi-
