come into existence in a puddle of mud, how a single cell could
generate millions of complex living species and, if such an evo-
lution really occurred, why traces of it cannot be observed in
the fossil record are some of the questions that the theory can-
not answer. However, first and foremost, we need focus on the
first step of the supposed evolutionary process. How did the

aforementioned “first cell” originate?
Since the theory of evolution ignorantly denies creation, it
maintains that the “first cell” originated as a product of blind co-
incidence within the laws of nature, without any plan or
arrangement. According to the theory, inanimate matter must
have haphazardly produced a living cell out of nowhere. Such a
claim, however, is inconsistent with the most unassailable rules
of biology.

“LIFE COMES FROM LIFE”

In his book, Darwin never referred to the origin of life.
That is because the primitive understanding of science in his
time rested on the assumption that living beings had a very
simple structure. Since medieval times, spontaneous genera-
tion, which asserts that non-living materials came together to
form living organisms, had been widely accepted. In that peri-
od, it was commonly believed that insects came into being from
food leftovers, and mice from wheat. Interesting experiments

were conducted to prove this theory. Some wheat was placed on
a dirty piece of cloth, and it was believed that mice would orig-
inate from it after a while.
Similarly, maggots developing in rotting meat were as-
sumed to be evidence of life originating from inanimate mate-
rials. However, it was later understood that worms did not
appear on meat spontaneously, but were carried there by flies
