particular, many scientists from such different fields as biolo-
gy, biochemistry and paleontology recognize the invalidity of
Darwinism and employ the fact of Creation to account for the
origin of life.
We have examined the collapse of the theory of evolu-
tion 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.

The Scientific Collapse of Darwinism
As a pagan doctrine going back as far as ancient Greece,

the theory of evolution was advanced extensively in the nine-
teenth 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 op-
posed, in his own eyes, the fact that Allah created different
living species on Earth separately, for he erroneously claimed
that all living beings had a common ancestor and had diver-

sified over time through small changes. Darwin's theory was
not based on any concrete scientific finding; as he also ac-
cepted, 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 dis-
coveries, which he expected to solve these difficulties.
However, contrary to his expectations, scientific findings ex-
