The Scientific Collapse of Darwinism
As a pagan doctrine going back as far as ancient Greece, the theo-
ry of evolution was advanced extensively in the nineteenth 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 opposed, in his own eyes, the fact that Allah
created different living species on Earth separately, for he erroneously
claimed that all living beings had a common ancestor and had diversi-
fied 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 on Theory," the theory failed in the face
of many critical questions.
Darwin invested all of his hopes in new scientific discoveries,
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 sci-
ence 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
mechanisms" proposed by the
theory have any evolutionary
power at all.
3) The fossil record proves the ex-
act opposite of what the theory suggests.
