The Deception of Evolution
           We have examined the collapse of the theory of evolution and the
         proofs of creation in great scientific detail in many of our works, and
         are still continuing to do so. Given the enormous importance of this
         subject, it will be of great benefit to summarize it here.

           Although this doctrine goes back as far as ancient Greece, the the-
         ory of evolution was advanced extensively in the nineteenth century.
         The most important development 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 denied that Allah created different living
         species on Earth separately, for he 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 discoveries,
         which he expected to solve these difficulties. However, contrary to his
         expectations, scientific findings expanded the dimensions of these dif-
         ficulties. The defeat of Darwinism in the face of science can be re-
         viewed under three basic topics:
           1) The theory cannot explain how life originated on Earth.
           2) No scientific finding shows that the "evolutionary mechanisms"
           proposed by the theory have any evolutionary power at all.
           3) The fossil record proves the exact opposite of what the theory
           suggests.
           In this section, we will examine these three basic points in general
         outlines:
