THE DESIGN OF THE EYE
The human eye works by some 40 different parts
functioning together. If one of these is not present, the
One of the
eye will serve no purpose. Each of these 40 parts has 11 distinct
its own individual structure. For instance, the layers of
retinal membrane at the back of the eye is the retinal
made up of 11 different layers. (Right membrane.
below) One of these layers is the blood
vein network, as seen under a
microscope. (See side picture.) This
layer, which has the most intricate
vein network in the body, meets
the oxygen needs of the retinal
cells that interpret light. Each of
the other layers has a distinct
function. Evolutionists are
unable to account for the
development of such a
complex organ.

Darwin's theory has today been overthrown just as he feared, because
scientific findings prove that most of the systems in living organisms are
irreducibly complex. Numerous structures and systems from the human eye to the cell, from the
coagulation process in the blood to the protein, are of no use with even one of their components
missing. Not surprisingly, no evolutionist can explain through which "steps" these organisms
have formed.
While irreducible complexity – in Darwin's words – "absolutely" breaks down the theory of
evolution, it, on the other hand, absolutely proves creation. Every irreducibly
complex system demonstrates the existence of an intelligence that has built it.
The complexity in living things proves the existence and the perfect creation
of God, Who created life. As stated in the Qur'an, "He is God – the Creator,
the Maker, the Giver of Form. To Him belong the Most Beautiful
Names. Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies Him. He is
the Almighty, the All-Wise." (Surat al-Hashr: 24)
THE BIOCHEMICAL CHALLENGE TO EVOLUTION
In his book Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to
Evolution, the American professor of biochemistry,
Michael Behe, quotes many examples of irreducible
complexity. As Behe makes clear, while irreducibly
complex organs refute Darwinism, they prove, on the
other hand, that life is "designed" that is, it is created.
