Given the enormous importance of this subject, it will be of great bene-

The Scientific Collapse of Darwinism
As a pagan doctrine going back as far as ancient Greece, the theory
of evolution was advanced extensively in the nineteenth century. The
most important development that made it the top topic of the world of
science was Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species, published in 1859. In
this book, he opposed, in his own eyes, the fact that Allah created dif-
ferent living species on Earth separately, for he erroneously claimed that

all living beings had a common ancestor and had diversified over time
through small changes. Darwin's theory was not based on any concrete
scientific finding; as he also accepted, it was just an "assumption."
Moreover, as Darwin confessed in the long chapter of his book titled
"Difficulties on Theory," the theory failed in the face of many critical
questions.
Darwin invested all of his hopes in new
scientific discoveries, which he expected to
solve these difficulties. However, contrary to
his expectations, scientific findings expanded
the dimensions of these difficulties. The de-
feat of Darwinism in the face of science can be
reviewed under three basic topics:
1) The theory cannot explain how life
originated on Earth.
2) No scientific finding shows that the
"evolutionary mechanisms" proposed by the
theory have any evolutionary power at all. Charles Darwin
