THE EVOLUTION MISCONCEPTION


            fessed in the long chapter of his book titled "Difficulties of the Theory," the
            theory was failing in the face of many critical questions.
                 Darwin invested all his hopes in new scientific discoveries, which he
            expected to solve the "Difficulties of the Theory." However, contrary to his
            expectations, scientific findings expanded the dimensions of these diffi-
            culties.
                 The defeat of Darwinism against science can be reviewed under
            three basic topics:
                 1) The theory can by no means explain how life originated on the
            earth.
                 2) There is no scientific finding showing that the "evolutionary mech-
            anisms" proposed by the theory have any power to evolve at all.
                 3) The fossil record proves completely the contrary of the sugges-

            tions of the theory of evolution.
                 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 primitive earth 3.8 billion years ago.
            How a single cell could generate millions of complex living species and, if
            such an evolution really occurred, why traces of it cannot be observed in the
            fossil record are some of the questions the theory cannot answer. However,
            first and foremost, of the first step of the alleged evolutionary process it has
            to be inquired: How did this "first cell" originate?
                 Since the theory of evolution denies creation and does not accept any

            kind of supernatural intervention, it maintains that the "first cell" origi-
            nated coincidentally within the laws of nature, without any design, plan,
            or arrangement. According to the theory, inanimate matter must have
            produced a living cell as a result of coincidences. This, however, is a claim
            inconsistent with even the most unassailable rules of biology.
