ies, which he expected to solve these difficulties. However,
contrary to his expectations, scientific findings expanded

the dimensions of these difficulties. The defeat of Darwin-
ism in the face of science can be reviewed under three basic
topics:
1) The theory cannot explain how life originated on
Earth.
2) No scientific finding shows that the "evolutionary
mechanisms" proposed by the theory have any evolution-
ary 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 primi-
tive Earth 3.8 billion years ago. How a single cell could gen-
erate millions of complex living species and, if such an evo-
lution 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 ignorantly denies Cre-
ation, it maintains that the "first cell" originated as a prod-
