154 THE DEBASED CULTURE OF SUPERFICIALITY
compel us accept a material explanation of the phenomenal
world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori
adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investi-
gation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations,
no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to
the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is absolute, so we
cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door. 19
These are explicit statements that Darwinism is a dogma
kept alive just for the sake of adherence to materialism. This
dogma maintains that there is no being save matter.
Therefore, it argues that inanimate, unconscious matter cre-
ated life. It insists that millions of different living species
(e.g., birds, fish, giraffes, tigers, insects, trees, flowers,
whales, and human beings) originated as a result of the
interactions between matter such as pouring rain, lightning
flashes, and so on, out of inanimate matter. This is a precept
contrary both to reason and science. Yet Darwinists contin-
ue to defend it just so as “not to allow a Divine Foot in the
door.”
Anyone who does not look at the origin of living beings
with a materialist prejudice will see this evident truth: All
living beings are works of a Creator, Who is All-Powerful,
All-Wise, and All-Knowing. This Creator is Allah, Who cre-
ated the whole universe from non-existence, designed it in
the most perfect form, and fashioned all living beings.
