without the other. And so, at first glance, one might have to con-
clude that life could never, in fact, have originated by chemical
means. (Leslie E. Orgel, "The Origin of Life on Earth," Scientific Amer-

I Imaginary Mechanism of Evolution

The second important point that negates Darwin's theory is that both

concepts put forward by the theory as "evolutionary mechanisms" were un-
derstood to have, in reality, no evolutionary power.
Darwin based his evolution allegation entirely on the mechanism of "nat-
