THE QUR'AN LEADS THE W A Y TO SCIENCE

This physical disorder is an example to
the deleterious effects of mutations.
Random mutations only render harm to
a perfect structure.

fiasco. Evolutionist Michael Pitman made the
following remark about these extensive, albeit,
inconclusive, mutation experiments:
Morgan, Goldschmidt, Muller, and other
geneticists have subjected generations of
fruit flies to extreme conditions of heat, cold,
light, dark, and treatment by chemicals and radiation. All sorts of
mutations, practically all trivial or positively deleterious, have been
produced. Man-made evolution? Not really: Few of the geneticists'
monsters could have survived outside the bottles they were bred in. In
practice mutants die, are sterile, or tend to revert to the wild type. 24
Renowned evolutionist, Gordon Taylor, also stated that 50 years were
lost to mutation experiments.

In all the thousands of fly-breeding experiments carried out all over the
world for more than fifty years, a distinct new species has never been
seen to emerge... or even a new enzyme. 25

Evolutionary arguments in other scientific areas have been no different.
Nevertheless, evolutionists advocate Darwinism despite all scientific
evidence, and then present their persistence as "scientific perseverance".
What they practice, however, is not scientific perseverance, but
resistance to science.

Fossil Impasse

Another example of the time-loss the evolutionary theory caused
science is the blind alley paleontology was pushed into. There is no doubt
that paleontological studies are essential to enlightening us about the
history of life on the earth. The erroneous preconceptions of the
evolutionary theory, however, have had a negative effect on fossil research
and misled scientists. In particular, some paleontologists investigating
