The Desperate Efforts of Neo-Darwinism

Darwin's theory entered into a deep crisis because of the laws of genetics discovered
in the first quarter of the 20th century. Nevertheless, a group of scientists who were deter-
mined to remain loyal to Darwin endeavoured to come up with solutions.
This cadre focused on the question of the origin of the advantageous variations that
supposedly caused living organisms to evolve–an issue that Darwin himself was unable
to explain but simply tried to side-step by depending on Lamarck. The idea was now
"random mutations". They named this new theory "The Modern Synthetic Evolution
Theory", which was formulated by adding the concept of mutation to Darwin's natural
selection thesis. In a short time, this theory came to be known as "neo-Darwinism" and
those who put forward the theory were called "neo-Darwinists".
The following decades were to become an era of desperate attempts to prove neo-
Darwinism. It was already known that mutations–or "accidents"-that took place in the
genes of living organisms were always harmful. Neo-Darwinists tried to establish a case
for "advantageous mutation" by carrying out thousands of mutation experiments. All
their attempts ended in complete failure.
They also tried to prove that the first living organisms could have originated by
chance under primitive terrestrial conditions that the theory posited but the same failure
attended these experiments too. Every experiment that sought to prove that life could be
generated by chance failed. Probability calculations prove that not even a single protein,
the building-blocks of life, could have originated by chance. And the cell-which suppos-
edly emerged by chance under primitive and uncontrolled terres-
trial conditions according to the evolutionists-could not be syn-
thesised by even the most sophisticated laboratories of the
20th century.
Neo-Darwinist theory is also defeated by the fossil
record. No "transitional forms", which were supposed to
show the gradual evolution of living organisms from prim-
itive to advanced species as the neo-Darwinist theory
claimed, have ever been found anywhere in the world. At
the same time, comparative anatomy revealed that species
that were supposed to have evolved from one another had
in fact very different anatomical features and that they
could never have been ancestors or descendants of each
other.
But neo-Darwinism was never a scientific theory anyway,
