ferent features emerged. Later, these genetic materials "learned"
in some way how to constitute various bodies and thus repro-

duce these genetic materials more effectively. The genes that en-
coded the best body were thus copied more effectively than
others. Evolutionists maintain that as a result of this, the how
and why of which they can't account for, bodies gradually de-
veloped in terms of form and function. This story, which could
not possibly have taken place, constitutes one of the fundamen-
tal claims of modern Darwinism. Yet evolutionists are also per-
fectly well aware that it is impossible for the human body, any
organ in it, the cells that comprise such organs, or even a single
component of these cells to have brought itself into being.
Dawkins, however, took this myth as his starting point and
claimed that there is "competition" between genes. He set out his
distorted view of humanity in his book The Selfish Gene:
We are survival machines—robot vehicles blindly programmed
to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes. This is a truth
which still fills me with astonishment. Though I have known it
for years, I never seem to get fully used to it. One of my hopes is
that I may have some success in astonishing others... 184

According to Dawkins' illogical claim, a human being is
simply a gene-bearing robot. Its only reason for existence is to
multiply the genes it bears, support them in competition with
other genes, and to pass them on to subsequent generations. It is
evident that this claim, ignoring the existence of the soul and re-
garding the human being as a mechanical device, lacks any real-
istic aspect.
Nonetheless, the majority of evolutionists seeking a materi-
alist explanation have supported this unscientific theory of
Dawkins'. In his book Human Nature, Wilson maintains that
human beings acquire importance and purpose only through

their genes:
