then a scientist":
It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel us
accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the con-
trary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to
create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce
material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how
mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is absolute, so
we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door. 72
These are explicit statements that Darwinism is a dogma kept alive just
for the sake of adherence to materialism. This dogma maintains that there is
no being save matter. Therefore, it argues that inanimate, unconscious matter
created life. It insists that millions of different living species (e.g., birds, fish,
giraffes, tigers, insects, trees, flowers, whales, and human beings) originated
as a result of the interactions between matter such as pouring rain, lightning
flashes, and so on, out of inanimate matter. This is a precept contrary both to
reason and science. Yet Darwinists continue to defend it just so as "not to
allow a Divine Foot in the door."
Anyone who does not look at the origin of living beings with a materialist
prejudice will see this evident truth: All living beings are works of a Creator,
Who is All-Powerful, All-Wise, and All-Knowing. This Creator is God, Who cre-
ated the whole universe from non-existence, designed it in the most perfect
form, and fashioned all living beings.
The Theory of Evolution:
The Most Potent Spell in the World
Anyone free of prejudice and the influence of any particular ideology,
who uses only his or her reason and logic, will clearly understand that belief
in the theory of evolution, which brings to mind the superstitions of societies
with no knowledge of science or civilization, is quite impossible.
As explained above, those who believe in the theory of evolution think that
a few atoms and molecules thrown into a huge vat could produce thinking, rea-
soning professors and university students; such scientists as Einstein and
Galileo; such artists as Humphrey Bogart, Frank Sinatra and Luciano Pavarotti;
as well as antelopes, lemon trees, and carnations. Moreover, as the scientists and
professors who believe in this nonsense are educated people, it is quite justifi-
