              formed by themselves evolving from minerals to organic matter, from
              living organisms to plants, animals, human beings and finally to
              "gods." According to this belief, new organs formed by themselves
              conforming to the needs of nature.  Originally, the idea was proposed
              only as a philosophical view.  According to this specious reasoning,
              small living things became larger living things stage by stage; every
              living thing has its place in the chain.  It asserts also that stone, metal,
              water and air became living organisms, living organisms became
              animals, and animals became human beings without any interruption
              in the process.  The reason this belief (which has no scientific
              foundation, contradicts all scientific facts, and stands only on abstract
              logic) has won acceptance for so long is not a scientific but an
              ideological one. What allows this false belief to endure is a dogmatic
              approach that denies the existence of AllŒh. This belief periodically
              changed its name, was elaborated, and finally became known as the
              "theory of evolution."
                   But it must be repeated:  the alleged serial arrangement takes no
              account of science.  There is no consideration of the physical
              characteristics of living things or about how life could come into being
              from lifeless materials or how water-dwelling creatures could adapt to
              life on land. Transitional forms, which are supposed to represent links
                                                    of    development     between
                                                       species constitute one of
                                                        the most serious impasses
                                                        in the theory of evolution
                                                       today because they are not
                                                       found in the fossil  record.
                                                       How creatures change into
                                                    others    remains    a   great
                                                   mystery because the chain is
                                                   merely the product of a
                                                    superficial   abstract   logic
