impression they are discussing a highly scientific matter.
In fact, however, Darwinism's basic claim is completely unscientific, and its logical poverty is so ob-

And out of that single cell, a literally endless series of coincidences later gave rise to animals, plants,

kingdoms, are supposedly the work of an ideal quantity of mud, a long period of time and plentiful co-
