Indeed, in many cases, there does not exist in
the biological literature even an attempt to
explain how these things have come about. A
classic example would be the lung of the bird,
and I could mention some other ones, but
everybody knows the lung of the bird is
unique in being a circulatory lung rather than
a bellows lung. I think it doesn't require a
great deal of profound knowledge of biology
to see that an organ, which is so central to the
physiology of any higher organism, its drastic
modification in that way by a series of small
events is almost inconceivable. This is some-
thing we can’t throw under the carpet again
because, basically, as Darwin said, if any organ
can be shown to be incapable of being
achieved gradually in little steps, his theory
would be totally overthrown.
The fact is that, in common-sense terms. . .
…here are a vast number of such cases in
nature. 5
All features of animals are so so finely calculat-
ed that even before they are hatched, they are
provided with special organs for their individual
species’ needs. Living things cannot
have come into being by chance, in
complete harmony with an environ-
ment which they have never seen.
It is our Almighty Lord, Allah,
Who creates living things together
with their perfect
systems.
