Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)
It is possible here to recognize Masonic fanaticism. When the writer
says that they "reject a kind of creation that excludes man," he is repeating
the basic dogma of humanism, that "a human being is the highest creature
that exists," and announcing that Masons reject any other explanation.
When he says, "an abnormal kind of creation," he means Allah's interven-
tion in the creation of living beings, rejecting this possibility a priori. (How-
ever, what is truly abnormal is that Masons accept, without observation or
experiment, the illogical belief that lifeless matter came to life by chance and
formed life on earth, including human beings.) It will be noticed that ac-
cording to the Masonic explanation there is no suggestion of scientific
proof. Masons do not say, "There is proof for evolution and therefore we re-
ject Creation." They are only blinded by a philosophical fanaticism.
Masonic publications insist on this tenet. Master Mason Selami
Isindag claims that "apart from nature there is no force that guides us,
and is responsible for our thoughts and actions." He immediately adds,
"life began from one cell and reached its present stage as a result of var-
ious changes and evolutions." 115 Later he summarizes what the theory of
evolution means for Masons:
From the point of view of evolution, human beings are no different from
animals. For the formation of man and his evolution there are no special
forces other than those to which animals are subjected. 116
This assertion shows clearly why Masons attach such importance to
the theory of evolution. Their aim is to defend the idea that human beings
were not created and to present their own humanist materialist philoso-
phy as tenable. And, the only method that can be used to reject the idea
that human beings were created is the theory of evolution.
So, it is for this reason that Masons, to whatever extent, believe in the the-
ory of evolution and seek to disseminate it throughout society.
This shows that Masons, who are constantly accusing those who be-
lieve in Allah of being dogmatic, are themselves dogmatic.
