viewed under three basic top-
ics:
1) The theory cannot ex-
plain how life originated on
Earth.
2) No scientific finding
shows that the "evolutionary
mechanisms" proposed by
the theory have any evolu-
tionary power at all.
3) The fossil record
proves the exact opposite of
what the theory suggests.
In this section, we will

examine these three basic
points in general outlines:

The First Insurmountable Step:
The Origin of Life

The theory of evolution posits that all living species evolved
from a single living cell that emerged on the primitive Earth 3.8 bil-
lion years ago. How a single cell could generate millions of complex
living species and, if such an evolution really occurred, why traces of
it cannot be observed in the fossil record are some of the questions HARUN YAHYA
that the theory cannot answer. However, first and foremost, we need
to ask: How did this "first cell" originate?
Since the theory of evolution denies creation and any kind of su-
pernatural intervention, it maintains that the "first cell" originated co- (ADNAN OKTAR)
