teins or the impairment of particular biochemical balances.
Control mechanisms in enzymes completely demolish the the-
ory of evolution that relies heavily on random selection. En-
zymes are activated or suppressed through highly conscious
choices, which means the quantity of enzymes needed for the

cell should be ‘known’. The fact that molecules in the cells,
made up of inanimate atoms, are made to act as if they possess
such knowledge, is a proof that they are controlled and guided
by God.
Another example to such “conscious” systems is as fol-

lows: Most of the time, enzymes operate as a chain. Their struc-
ture is so marvelously created, as the enzymes work and begin
to produce a surplus of materials, these surplus enzyme prod-
ucts attach to control regulates of the producer enzymes and
suppress them. If the activity of an enzyme is unnecessary or

harmful, its activity is suppressed, sometimes only by removing
or adding a small substance like phosphorus.
When a cell decides that the time has come to stop the en-
zyme from functioning, it distracts the enzyme with extraordi-
nary planning, dispatching a substance similar to the one with
which the enzyme normally combines. The enzyme attaches to

this ‘imitation’, which prevents unnecessary activity by tem-
porarily immobilizing the enzyme. In order to immobilize en-
zymes, however, this imitation has to compete with substances
that block it permanently. Obstruction of enzymes in this man-

ner is known as competitive inhibition. This distraction method
halts enzyme activities until the product emerging as a result of
that enzyme's reaction falls below a specific level.
