The Deception of Evolution
by chemical means. 6
No doubt, if it is impossible for life to have originated from
natural causes, then it has to be accepted that life was "created"
in a supernatural way. This fact explicitly invalidates the theory
of evolution, whose main purpose is to deny creation.
Imaginary Mechanisms of Evolution
The second important point that negates Darwin's theory is
that both concepts put forward by the theory as "evolutionary
mechanisms" were understood to have, in reality, no evolutiona-
ry power.
Darwin based his evolution allegation entirely on the mech-
anism of "natural selection". The importance he placed on this
mechanism was evident in the name of his book: The Origin of
Species, By Means of Natural Selection…
Natural selection holds that those living things that are
stronger and more suited to the natural conditions of their habi-
tats will survive in the struggle for life. For example, in a deer
herd under the threat of attack by wild animals, those that can
run faster will survive. Therefore, the deer herd will be com-
prised of faster and stronger individuals. However, unquestion-
ably, this mechanism will not cause deer to evolve and transform
themselves into another living species, for instance, horses.
Therefore, the mechanism of natural selection has no evolu-
tionary power. Darwin was also aware of this fact and had to
state this in his book The Origin of Species:
Natural selection can do nothing until favourable individu-
al differences or variations occur. 7
