206 THE EVOLUTION DECEIT
question as "Yes, it is possible" is something like verifying faith in the mod-
ern science of nature. Critically speaking, we can say that somebody who ac-
cepts the modern science of nature has no other alternative than to say "yes",
because he aims to explain natural phenomena by means that are under-
standable and tries to derive them from the laws of nature without reverting
to supernatural interference. However, at this point, explaining everything
by means of the laws of nature, that is, by coincidences, is a sign that he has
nowhere else to turn. Because what else could he do other than believe in co-
incidences? 184
As Ditfurth states, the materialist scientific approach adopts as its
basic principle explaining life by denying "supernatural interference", i.e.
creation. Once this principle is adopted, even the most impossible scenar-
ios are easily accepted. It is possible to find examples of this dogmatic
mentality in almost all evolutionist literature. Professor Ali Demirsoy, the
well-known advocate of evolutionary theory in Turkey, is just one of
many. As we have already pointed out, according to Demirsoy: the proba-
bility of the coincidental formation of cythochrome-C, an essential protein
for life, is "as unlikely as the possibility of a monkey writing the history
of humanity on a typewriter without making any mistakes". 185
There is no doubt that to accept such a possibility is actually to reject
the basic principles of reason and common sense. Even one single correctly
formed letter written on a page makes it certain that it was written by a
person. When one sees a book of world history, it becomes even more cer-
tain that the book has been written by an author. No logical person would
agree that the letters in such a huge book could have been put together "by
chance".
However, it is very interesting to see that the "evolutionist scientist"
Professor Ali Demirsoy accepts this sort of irrational proposition:
In essence, the probability of the formation of a cytochrome-C sequence is as
likely as zero. That is, if life requires a certain sequence, it can be said that this
has a probability likely to be realised once in the whole universe. Otherwise
some metaphysical powers beyond our definition must have acted in its for-
mation. To accept the latter is not appropriate for the scientific goal. We thus
have to look into the first hypothesis. 186
Demirsoy writes that he prefers the impossible, in order "not to have
to accept supernatural forces"-in other words, the existence of a Creator. It
is clear that this approach has no relation whatsoever with science. Not
surprisingly, when Demirsoy cites another subject-the origins of the mito-
