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 cen-
tury. The most important develop-
ment 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
Charles Darwin
opposed, in his own eyes, the fact
that Allah created different 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 discover-
ies, which he expected to solve these difficulties. However, con-
trary to his expectations, scientific findings expanded the dimen-
sions of these difficulties. The defeat 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 mecha-
nisms" proposed by the theory have any evolutionary power at
all.
