evolutionist, Richard C. Lewontin from Harvard University,
confesses that he is "first and foremost a materialist and then

a scientist":
It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow
compel us accept a material explanation of the phenomenal
world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori
adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investi-
gation and a set of concepts that produce material explana-
tions, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mysti-
fying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is ab-
solute, so we cannot allow a Divine [intervention]... 185

These are explicit statements that Darwinism is a
dogma kept alive just for the sake of adherence to material-
ism. This dogma maintains that there is no being save mat-
ter. Therefore, it argues that inanimate, unconscious matter
brought life into being. It insists that millions of different
living species (e.g., birds, fish, giraffes, tigers, insects, trees,
flowers, whales, and human beings) originated as a result
of the interactions between matter such as pouring rain,
lightning flashes, and so on, out of inanimate matter. This is
a precept contrary both to reason and science. Yet Darwin-
ists continue to ignorantly defend it just so as not to ac-
knowledge, in their own eyes, the evident existence of
Allah.
Anyone who does not look at the origin of living be-

ings with a materialist prejudice sees this evident truth: All
living beings are works of a Creator, Who is All-Powerful,
