160 THE DAY OF JUDGMENT

Interestingly enough, they also confess this fact from time to
time. A well-known geneticist and an outspoken evolutionist,
Richard C. Lewontin from Harvard University, confesses that he is
"first and foremost a materialist and then a scientist":
It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel
us accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the
contrary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to material
causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts
that produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive,
no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that
materialism is absolute, so we cannot allow a Divine
[intervention]... 53
These are explicit statements that Darwinism is a dogma kept
alive just for the sake of adherence to materialism. This dogma
maintains that there is no being save matter. Therefore, it argues
that inanimate, unconscious matter brought life into being. It insists
that millions of different living species (e.g., birds, fish, giraffes,
tigers, insects, trees, flowers, whales, and human beings) originated
as a result of the interactions between matter such as pouring rain,
lightning flashes, and so on, out of inanimate matter. This is a
precept contrary both to reason and science. Yet Darwinists
continue to ignorantly defend it just so as not to acknowledge, in
their own eyes, the evident existence of Allah.
Anyone who does not look at the origin of living beings with a
materialist prejudice sees this evident truth: All living beings are
works of a Creator, Who is All-Powerful, All-Wise, and All-
Knowing. This Creator is Allah, Who created the whole universe
from non-existence in the most perfect form, and fashioned all
living beings.
