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-
