                    Moreover, that materialism is absolute, so we cannot allow a Divine
                    [intervention]... 167

                    These are explicit statements that Darwinism is a dogma kept
               alive just for the sake of adherence to materialism. This dogma
               maintains that there is no being save matter. Therefore, it argues
               that inanimate, unconscious matter created life. It insists that mil-
               lions of different living species (e.g., birds, fish, giraffes, tigers, in-
               sects, trees, flowers, whales, and human beings) originated as a re-
               sult of the interactions between matter such as pouring rain, light-
               ning flashes, and so on, out of inanimate matter. This is a precept
               contrary both to reason and science. Yet Darwinists continue to de-
               fend it just so as "not to allow a Divine intervention."
                    Anyone who does not look at the origin of living beings with
               a materialist prejudice will see this evident truth: All living beings
               are works of a Creator, Who is All-Powerful, All-Wise, and All-
               Knowing. This Creator is Allah, Who created the whole universe
               from non-existence, designed it in the most perfect form, and fash-
               ioned all living beings.

               ideology, who uses only his or her reason and logic, will clearly un-
               derstand that belief in the theory of evolution, which brings to

               civilization, is quite impossible.
                    As explained above, those who believe in the theory of evolu-
                tion think that a few atoms and molecules thrown into a huge vat
                could produce thinking, reasoning professors and university stu-
               dents; such scientists as Einstein and Galileo; such artists as
