n 1999, the National Academy of Sciences, USA, published a booklet called
Science and Creationism: The National Academy of Science’s View. The aim of
I this booklet was to respond to the creation/evolution debate by bringing
together “the most important proofs” of evolution.
The advertising campaign set in motion about this booklet was such that anyone
seeing it might well imagine that it was full of evidence for the theory of evolution
and had put a definitive end to all discussion of the validity of the theory. However,
those who expected to find such evidence in it were sadly disappointed. The booklet
makes not a single mention of the Cambrian Period, the real subject of debate as
regards the theory of evolution and which can never be accounted for in terms of
the theory. Nor does it discuss such matters as the origin of the cell or human
consciousness. Despite having been disproved time and time again by scientific
findings, evolutionists’ classic claims were simply repeated in a superficial manner,
with no evidence offered to support them.
With this new work, we wish to demonstrate how it is that the members of the
National Academy of Sciences, USA, one of the world’s most eminent evolutionist
institutions, came to be unable to see the most obvious truth and to distort the
evidence and knowingly support a lie, because of their fanatical devotion to
Darwinism and materialism.
Those who read this book with an objective eye will once again see the truth in
question—in other words the fact that the theory of evolution is being supported
with a blind and totally dogmatic determination.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
The author, who writes under the pen-name Harun
Yahya, was born in Ankara in 1956. He studied arts
at Istanbul's Mimar Sinan University and
philosophy at Istanbul University. His main focus
has been the refutation of Darwinism and
materialism, two modern myths presented under a
scientific guise. Some of the books of the author have been translated into
more than 40 languages and published in the countries concerned. Harun
Yahya's books appeal to all people, Muslims and non-Muslims alike,
regardless of their age, race, and nationality, as they center around one goal:
to open the readers' mind by encouraging them to think about some critical
issues such as the existence of God and His unity, and to display the
decrepit foundations and perverted works of godless systems.
