                 The First Insurmountable Step: The Origin of Life


                 The theory of evolution posits that all living species evolved from
            a single living cell that emerged haphazardly on Earth 3.8 billion years
            ago, supposedly having appeared as a result of coincidences. How a
            cell comprising a wide range of organelles such as vacuoles, mito-
            chondria, lysosomes and Golgi apparatus could come into existence in
            a puddle of mud, how a single cell could generate millions of complex
            living species and, if such an evolution really occurred, why traces of
            it cannot be observed in the fossil record are some of the questions that

            the theory cannot answer. However, first and foremost, we need focus
            on the first step of the supposed evolutionary process. How did the
            aforementioned “first cell” originate?
                 Since the theory of evolution ignorantly denies creation, it main-
            tains that the “first cell” originated as a product of blind coincidence
            within the laws of nature, without any plan or arrangement. According
            to the theory, inanimate matter must have haphazardly produced a liv-

            ing cell out of nowhere. Such a claim, however, is inconsistent with the
            most unassailable rules of biology.

                                          In his book, Darwin never referred to the
                                        origin of life. That is because the primitive
                                         understanding of science in his time rest-
