               dences that occurred spontaneously over the course of exceedingly
               long periods of time. “Chance” is a word endowed with magical prop-
               erties for the Darwinist mindset. The answer to any question you might
               put to a Darwinist will be, “Chance managed it somehow.”
                   Darwinists ascribe an extraordinary power to coincidences, and
               also imagine that some learned scholars know all the secrets of
               Darwinism. They imagine that these people will one day stand up and
               produce all the scientific evidence that has so far proved totally elusive,
               and thus prove evolution as an absolute fact. They are utterly mistak-

               en, however. This expectation has survived since Darwin’s day.
                   Darwin established his theory on a logical weakness and dreamed
               that the evidence would one day be found to eliminate the major dilem-
               mas facing his theory. That hope was to be dashed however, in the same
               way as the hopes of modern-day Darwinists: The theory of evolution
               has not been proved by 21st century science and technology. On the
               contrary, they have utterly refuted it. Yet Darwinist scientists ignore
               that fact. Because what matters for them is to keep the theory on its feet,
               despite having been conclusively disproved. It is not science and the
               facts that science demonstrates that count, but their devotion to
               Darwinism, to which they cling like a religion.
                   The American professor Phillip Johnson describes the true face of
               this devotion to Darwinism:
                   The leaders of science see themselves as locked in a desperate battle against reli-
                   gious fundamentalists, a label which they tend to apply broadly to anyone who
                   believes in a Creator Who plays an active role in worldly affairs. These funda-
                   mentalists are seen as a threat to liberal freedom, and especially as a threat to
                   public support for scientific research. As the Creation myth of scientific nat-



                    For Darwinists, chance is a false god that works mira-
                    cles. The fact is, however, that chance cannot give rise to
                    beautiful flowers, technology,  butterflies, birds, grapes,
                    strawberries, human beings, or even a single cell. But
                    Darwinism ignores this huge logical weakness.
