tear glands, was missing. The conclusion we must arrive at,
therefore, is that all the parts of such systems must have been
created simultaneously. This, of course, proves the invalidity
of evolution once again.
So, what would it mean if a complex structure were to
come into being in a single moment?
Unquestionably, the emergence of many components at
the same time, at the same place could only be the result of a
special creation.

108. Why is the theory of evolution defended
so persistently by certain circles although it has

People who disregard the existence of Allah and are
