Darwin confessed in the long chapter of his book titled
"Difficulties on Theory," the theory failed in the face of
many critical questions.
Darwin invested all of his hopes in new scientific dis-
coveries, which he expected to solve these difficulties.
However, contrary to his expectations, scientific findings ex-
panded the dimensions of these difficulties. The defeat of
Darwinism in the face of science can be reviewed under three

basic topics:
1) The theory cannot explain how life originated on
Earth.
2) No scientific finding shows that the "evolutionary
mechanisms" proposed by the theory have any evolutionary
power at all.
3) The fossil record proves the exact opposite of what the

theory suggests.
In this section, we will examine these three basic points
in general outlines:

The First Insurmountable Step:
The Origin of Life
The theory of evolution posits that all living species
evolved from a single living cell that emerged on the primi-
tive Earth 3.8 billion years ago. How a single cell could gen-
erate millions of complex living species and, if such an evo-
lution really occurred, why traces of it cannot be observed in
the fossil record are some of the questions that the theory can-

not answer. However, first and foremost, we need to ask:
