LOYALTY DESCRIBED IN THE QUR'AN
It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow com-
pel us accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but,
on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to ma-
terial causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of con-
cepts that produce material explanations, no matter how

inanimate matter. This is a precept contrary both to reason and science.
Yet Darwinists continue to defend it just so as "not to allow a Divine
Foot in the door."
