           among scientists.  They generally imagine that scientific discourse is
           independent of the individual scientist's philosophical and ideological
           prejudices and that scientists are objective individuals whose facts are
           substantiated by concrete evidence and their truth proven by
           experiment.  For this reason they seldom doubt the correctness of the
           theory of evolution.
               This is a great error, however, because when evolutionist
           "scientists" are discussing the theory of evolution, scientific criteria are
           not brought to bear on the issue.  These words of the eminent
           Darwinian, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, expose the
           position of "science" in the Darwinist outlook:
               Is evolution a theory, a system, or a hypothesis? It
               is much more.  It is a general postulate to which
               all theories, all hypotheses, all systems must
               henceforward bow and which they must satisfy
               in order to be thinkable and true.  Evolution is a
               light which illuminates all facts, a trajectory
               which all lines of thought must follow.  This is
               what evolution is. 3

               As can be seen in the above quotation, the terms
           used by Darwinists when they speak of their theory give           Pierre Teilhard
           important clues about their dogmatic attitude and blind              de Chardin
           allegiance.  Taking other examples, one of the leading evolutionists of
           the world, G.W. Harper, calls the theory of evolution a "metaphysical




                                                 When Darwin's theory was proposed,
                                                 science and technology were on a
                                                 very primitive level.  Scientists of that
                                                 period used very basic equipment,
                                                 whereas computers and electron
                                                 microscopes are used today.  The
                                                 development of equipment, from the
                                                 microscope to other technical
                                                 devices, began only in the 20th
                                                 century.  The results of scientific
                                                 advances have nullified the claims
                                                 made by Darwinism with its primitive
                                                 level of scientific knowledge.
