The Dark Spell of Darwinism

any great extent, however, because their opportunities to do so are limited,
and so evolutionists can exploit them for their own ends. In what they say
and write, they hide behind their positions as scientists and employ many
senseless explanations.
Books by Richard Dawkins, one of the world's most noted evolution-
ist scientists, frequently feature examples designed to portray evolutionary
theories in a comprehensible and rational light. In his book, The Selfish Gene,
he writes that genes may be compared to Chicago gangsters:

The argument of this book is that we, and all other animals, are machines cre-
ated by our genes. Like successful Chicago gangsters our genes have sur-
vived, in some cases for mil-
lions of years in a highly com-
petitive world. 56
Dawkins cannot explain
how even one gene came into
being, but does make the prepos-
terous comparison, suggesting
that genes survive as the result of
chance events. But what a pity
that readers who know nothing
about the subject may accept this
as logical and convincing, just
Richard Dawkins
because Dawkins is a profes-
sor.
As we can see from the exam-
ples so far, Darwinists have nothing else to do but
try to persuade people with absurd analogies such as Chicago gangsters,
Corvettes and parking garages. Apart from such empty examples, they
have no accepted scientific findings to prove their assertions.
