United States in particular, many scientists from such differ-
ent fields as biology, biochemistry and paleontology recog-
nize the invalidity of Darwinism and employ the fact of
Creation to account for the origin of life.
We have examined the collapse of the theory of evolu-
tion and the proofs of Creation in great scientific detail in
many of our works, and are still continuing to do so. Given
the enormous importance of this subject, it will be of great

benefit to summarize it here.

The Scientific Collapse of Darwinism
As a pagan doctrine going back as far as ancient Greece,
the theory of evolution was advanced extensively in the nine-
teenth century. The most important development that made
it the top topic of the world of science was Charles Darwin's
The Origin of Species, published in 1859. In this book, he op-
