1) The theory cannot explain how life originated on Earth.
2) There is no scientific finding that indicates the "evolutionary mecha-
nisms" proposed by the theory have any evolutionary power at all.
3) The fossil record proves the exact opposite of what the theory sug-
gests.
In this section, we will examine these three basic points in general out-
lines:
T The First Insurmountable Step: The Origin of Life
The theory of evolution posits that all living species evolved from a sin-
gle living cell that emerged haphazardly on Earth 3.8 billion years ago, sup-
posedly having appeared as a result of coincidences. How a cell comprising a
wide range of organelles such as vacuoles, mitochondria, lysosomes and Golgi
apparatus could come into existence in a puddle of mud, how a single cell
could generate millions of complex living species and, if such an evolution re-
ally occurred, why traces of it cannot be observed in the fossil record are some
of the questions that the theory cannot answer. However, first and foremost,
we need focus on the first step of the supposed evolutionary process.
How did the aforementioned "first cell" originate?
Since the theory of evolution ignorantly denies creation,
it maintains that the "first cell" originated as a product of
blind coincidence within the laws of nature, without any
plan or arrangement. According to the theory, inanimate
matter must have haphazardly produced a living cell
out of nowhere. Such a claim, however, is inconsistent
with the most unassailable rules of biology.
