The Absurdity of Chance
The people who invent and support theories of chance are products of a materi-
alist and evolutionist mentality. Claiming that the universe has no beginning or end
and that it is not the creation of a creator, these people state that billions of galaxies,
consisting of billions of stars, and all the celestial bodies, planets, stars and perfect
systems which enable them to maintain their existence, that all these emerged as the
result of uncontrolled chance happenings. In a similar manner, they claim that, in
spite of the magnificent order in the universe, living creatures also came into being
by chance.
In light of this information, it appears that they consider "chance" to be a creative
power. However, considering a being other than Allah to be a creative power is
nothing but idolatry. In other words, evolutionists have an idol which is called
"chance." This will be evident to anyone who takes a look at Darwinist works.
Examples of livings beings that evolutionists believe the "idol of chance" created
are countless. For example, evolutionists believe that the very first cell that was the
origin of all living things was the work of this idol. According to this belief, one day
as a result of thunderbolts, rain and various other natural phenomena, a bunch of
atoms came together without any previous plan in order to form amino acids. Then
these amino acids combined to form proteins, the basis for the cells of all living crea-
tures. This process was implemented by means of the power of chance. Then, in this
way, the proteins immediately formed the first living cell, again by chance.
However, the job of "chance" wasn't over yet.
According to the evolutionist sophistries, the "idol of chance" was, by itself, also
the impetus behind the emergence of millions of species on Earth. It first brought a
fish into being and then, thinking a single type of fish would not be sufficient, it
formed hundreds of thousands of fish species. Since hundreds of thousands of fish
species were not enough, it brought other sea creatures alongside them into being
and created an environment of breathtaking magnificence under the sea. Then, this
very "idol of chance" thought that undersea life was not enough, so it prepared cer-
tain structural changes in the body of a fish which would enable it to live on land.
By means of random, gradual changes, the fins of the fish happened to be trans-
formed into feet, and the gills happened to become lungs so the fish could breathe
in the air. Yet, still they had not reached the diversity of the species we see today, so
"chance" allegedly continued to work its magic…
As we will come to see in many examples, living things can survive only if their Introduction
organs are complete and fully developed. Dysfunction of some organs can cause a
creature to die within a couple of minutes or a couple of days at the most. However,
