he theory of evolution, as you know,
                                   claims that living things and the complex

                                   structures and systems within them came
                                   into being spontaneously, under natural
                                   conditions. Yet as we have clearly shown
                       up to now, the photosynthetic systems inside even a
                       single plant leaf possess an exceedingly complex de-
                       sign. It is therefore impossible for coincidences to
                       bring these into being, as evolutionists would have us
                       believe.
                            To show this system could not have come about

                       by chance, let us ask some questions of those who in-
                       sist on defending the theory of evolution. Who de-
                       signed this incomparable mechanism established in a
                       microscopically small area? Can we assume that un-
                       conscious plant cells, in other words plants, planned
                       such a system themselves? We cannot, of course, hy-
                       pothesize any such thing, because there is no question

                       of plant cells reasoning or designing anything. It is
                       not the cell itself that makes the flawless system we
                       see when we examine it under a microscope. Then is
                       this system the product of human intelligence, of the
                       only entity capable of rational thought? No human
                       being has constructed the world’s most complex facil-
                       ities in a space one thousandth of a cubic millimeter.
                       Human beings cannot even observe what goes on in-
                       side these microscopic facilities.

                            The theory of evolution maintains that all living
                       things developed in progressive stages, from the sim-
