If so, it will present a parallel to the theory of evolution itself, a


                        theory universally accepted, not because it can be proved by

                        logically coherent evidence to be true, but because the only


                        alternative, special creation, is clearly incredible.       73


                        Chandra Wickramasinghe, a famous British scientist, explains


                 how people are conditioned to denial of Allah:


                        From my earliest training as a scientist, I was very strongly


                        brainwashed to believe that science cannot be consistent with


                        any kind of deliberate creation.  That notion has had to be

                        painfully shed.  At the moment, I can't find any rational


                        argument to knock down the view which argues for conversion to


                        God.  We used to have an open mind; now we realize that the

                        only logical answer to life is creation and not accidental random


                        shuffling.  74


                        The examples above clearly illustrate that evolutionist scientists


                 must believe in the theory of evolution based on materialism in order


                 to be able to reject Allah, although they know the theory is false.  And

                 these individuals are but a few of the leading materialist evolutionists


                 of our day.
