SOME SECRETS OF THE QUR'AN

However, contrary to his expectations, scientific findings
expanded the dimensions of these difficulties.
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 mechanisms" proposed by the theory have any
power to evolve at all.
3) The fossil record proves completely the contrary of the
suggestions 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" originated 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.
