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 Earth 3.8
billion years ago, supposed to have happened as a result of
coincidences. How a single cell could generate millions of
complex living species and, if such an evolution really oc-
curred, why traces of it cannot be observed in the fossil record
are some of the questions that the theory cannot answer.
However, first and foremost, we need to ask: How did this
"first cell" originate?
Since the theory of evolution ignorantly denies Cre-
ation, it maintains that the "first cell" originated as a product
of blind coincidences within the laws of nature, without any
plan or arrangement. According to the theory, inanimate mat-
ter must have produced a living cell as a result of coinci-
dences. Such a claim, however, is inconsistent with the most
unassailable rules of biology.

"Life Comes From Life"

In his book, Darwin never referred to the origin of life.
The primitive understanding of science in his time rested on
the assumption that living beings had a very simple structure.
Since medieval times, spontaneous generation, which asserts
that non-living materials came together to form living organ-
isms, had been widely accepted. It was commonly believed
