"The probability of life originating from accident is comparable to the probability of the Unabridged Dictionary resulting from an explosion in a printing factory." Professor Edwin Conklin.
Charles Darwin claimed that life began from a single cell. We now know that a single cell is very complex with billions of nucleotides inside the nucleus and millions of chemical reactions. The probabilities laws tell us that it is impossible for a single cell to randomly rearrange itself to become something other than it is programmed to be. Evolution is only possible within a particular species. Pigeons are a classic example. They all began as the common Rock Dove but inter-breeding has produced a variety of strange looking birds, which still resemble their ancestor, but have a few extra fashion accessories.
Charles Darwin knew his theory was flawed because in his book written in 1859 (Origin of the Species) chapter six entitled ‘Difficulty of the Theory’ is where he appeals to future generations to study the difficulties with which his theory is riddled. Even his peers and contemporaries of the day doubted his theories.
All that Darwin says about the evolution of man is at the end of his book, “Light will be thrown on the origin of Man and his history.” And that is it, no theory of where we came from, no insight into how we came to be on this planet, no conclusion to mankind’s origins at all, nothing.
Chapter 29, verses 19-20
Have they not seen how God initiates the creation and then repeats it? This is easy for God to do. Say, “Roam the earth and find out the origin of life.” For God will thus initiate the creation in the Hearafter. God is Omnipotent.
A fish will not evolve into a horse and a monkey cannot evolve into a human being, if this was the case why is it still not happening? Why are monkeys not walking out of forests as human beings as I type? Because they never did. A monkey is a monkey, a human being is a human being and never the twain shall meet. It does not matter how many ‘human/ape, ape/human’ sculls they claim to have found, the fact is that animals and humans were created for a specific reasons and they do not interbreed.
Chapter 32, verses 7-8
He is the One who perfected everything He created, and started the creation of the human from clay. Then He continued his reproduction through a certain lowly liquid.
God tells us in the Quran why and how He created mankind. He tells us that He created the animals too. Never in the Bible or the Quran does God tell us that humans beings evolved from animals. Animals do not have freedom of choice, human beings do. As a human being I chose to believe that God created me for a specific purpose and that at the end of my life I will die and my soul will leave this dimension and, God willing, return from where I came. Evolutionists and atheists will disagree with this statement because they do not believe in God and His creations, which is their right, but I will never be convinced that my ancestors were apes who swung from the trees.
Chapter 95, verses 4-6
We created man in the best design. Then turned him into the lowliest of the low. Except those who believe and lead a righteous life; they received a reward that is well deserved.
