HARUN YAHYA (ADNAN OKTAR)
to conclude that life could never, in fact, have originated by
chemical means. 6
No doubt, if it is impossible for life to have originated
spontaneously as a result of blind coincidences, then it has to be
accepted that life was "created." This fact explicitly invalidates the
theory of evolution, whose main purpose is to deny Creation.
Imaginary Mechanism of Evolution
The second important point that negates Darwin's theory is that
both concepts put forward by the theory as "evolutionary
mechanisms" were understood to have, in reality, no evolutionary
power.
Darwin based his evolution allegation entirely on the
mechanism of "natural selection." The importance he placed on
this mechanism was evident in the name of his book: The Origin of
Species, By Means of Natural Selection…
Natural selection holds that those living things that are stronger
and more suited to the natural conditions of their habitats will
survive in the struggle for life. For example, in a deer herd under
the threat of attack by wild animals, those that can run faster will
survive. Therefore, the deer herd will be comprised of faster and
stronger individuals. However, unquestionably, this mechanism
will not cause deer to evolve and transform themselves into
another living species, for instance, horses.
