               2) No scientific finding shows that the "evolutionary
           mechanisms" proposed by the theory have any evolutionary
           power at all.
               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 the primitive
           Earth 3.8 billion years ago. How a single cell could generate
           millions of complex living species and, if such an evolution
           really occurred, 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 denies creation and any
           kind of supernatural intervention, it maintains that the "first
           cell" originated coincidentally within the laws of nature, with-
           out any design, plan or arrangement. According to the theory,
           inanimate matter must have produced a living cell as a result
           of coincidences. Such a claim, however, is inconsistent with
           the most unassailable rules of biology.
