GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE AND
ALL LIVING THINGS
The theory of evolution, an outdated 19th century concept, has completely collapsed in the face of
today's scientific facts. Darwinists have no scientific reply to offer in the face of the fossil record, which
deals the most severe blow to the theory of evolution.
Darwinists cannot point to a single fossil suggesting that evolution ever took place, and resort to
various means that they hope will camouflage this defeat they have suffered: Sometimes they attempt to
portray fossils from various extinct species as intermediate forms, even though there is no truth to this
whatsoever. Sometimes they seek to prove evolution—in their own eyes, at least—by pointing to
counterfeit fossils. At other times, they try to deceive the public by way of completely imaginary
illustrations. In doing all this, they also employ misleading headlines such as "Missing Link Found!" or
"Our Ancestors Were Microbes" or "New Discovery Proves Evolution" in an effort to give the impression
that the theory of evolution is unquestionable fact.
These methods may have been successful through the later 1800s and early 1900s, when science and
technology were not as advanced as now. But in the 21st century, all the lies of evolutionists have been
brought to light leaving Darwinists in a helpless position.
Today, even young children are becoming aware that there are no intermediate fossils pointing to
evolution, that human beings are not descended from apes, that the highly developed and complex
structures of living things cannot be accounted for in terms of the theory of evolution, and that
Darwinism is the worst fraud in the history of science.
As revealed in the verse: "No indeed, it is one of their blatant lies to say" (Surat as-Saffat, 151), God
tells us in the Qur'an that unbelievers turn their backs on faith by constantly coming up with falsehoods
of one kind or another. Darwinists resort to various deceptions and make all kinds of unscientific claims
in order to avoid having faith
themselves and also to turn
others away from religious
moral values.
Indeed, it is emphasized in
one verse: "And even though
they [unbelievers] used to
say..." (Surat as Saffat, 167) that
Archaeopteryx, used for years as the so-
called evidence of the transition from
reptile-to-bird fable, is an example of how
evolutionists try to deceive people. It was
claimed that Archaeopteryx, a 150-million-
year-old bird, has some reptilian features
and thus is a "missing link" between reptiles
and birds. However, all recent scientific
findings show that Archaeopteryx was a
flying bird, invalidate these claims.
Furthermore, teropod dinosaurs—the so-
called reptilian ancestors of birds—are far
younger than Archaeopteryx. This is another
fact that evolutionists try to ignore.
