cate itself only with the help of some specialized proteins (en-
zymes). However, the synthesis of these enzymes can be realized
only by the information coded in DNA. As they both depend on
each other, they have to exist at the same time for replication. This
brings the scenario that life originated by itself to a deadlock. Prof.
Leslie Orgel, an evolutionist of repute from the University of San
Diego, California, confesses this fact in the September 1994 issue of
the Scientific American magazine:
It is extremely improbable that proteins and nucleic acids, both
of which are structurally complex, arose spontaneously in the
same place at the same time. Yet it also seems impossible to have
one without the other. And so, at first glance, one might have to con-
clude that life could never, in fact, have originated by chemical
means. 25

No doubt, if it is impossible for life to have originated sponta-
neously as a result of blind coincidences, then it has to be accepted
that life was "created." This fact explicitly invalidates the theory of
evolution, whose main purpose is to deny Creation.

Imaginary Mechanism of Evolution
The second important point that negates Darwin's theory is that
both concepts put forward by the theory as "evolutionary mecha-
nisms" were understood to have, in reality, no evolutionary power.
Darwin based his evolution allegation entirely on the mechanism
of "natural selection." The importance he placed on this mechanism
was evident in the name of his book: The Origin of Species, By Means
of Natural Selection…
Natural selection holds that those living things that are stronger

and more suited to the natural conditions of their habitats will sur-
