B efore we turn to the pain and disasters that Darwinism
has brought to the world, let us take a brief look at its
history. Many people believe the theory of evolution,
first put forward by Charles Darwin, to be a theory
based on firm scientific evidence, observation and experiment. Whereas,
as the originator of the theory of evolution is not Darwin, so the source of
the theory is not scientific proof.
At one period in Mesopotamia, when idol-worshipping religions had
hegemony, superstitions and myths regarding the roots of life and the uni-
verse abounded: one of these was the belief "evolution." According to the
Enuma-Elish epic, which dates back to the Sumerians, there was a raging
flood, and from this the gods called Lahmu and Lahamu suddenly
emerged. According to the superstition, these idols first created them-
selves and then, becoming universal, formed other matter and living crea-
tures. In other words, according to Sumerian myth, life suddenly came into
being from the non-living watery chaos, evolved and developed.
We can see that this belief shows a close accordance with the theory
of evolution's claim that "living things developed and evolved from non-
living things." From this we can see that the idea of evolution does not
belong to Darwin, but originally to Sumerian idol-worshippers.
Later, the myth of evolution found more space to live in another idol-
worshipping civilisation, Ancient Greece. Ancient Greek materialist
philosophers counted matter as the only thing which existed. They turned
to the myth of evolution, an inheritance from the Sumerians, to explain
how living things came about. In this way, materialist philosophy and the
myth of evolution came together in Ancient Greece. From there it was car-
ried to the culture of Rome.
